This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This Core Concept video focuses on Epictetus' Enchiridion (and Discourses) and discusses his conception of understanding -- and then either choosing or not choosing to pay -- the prices of various goods. The key question is: what are you worth?

We also offer affordable, content-packed, on-demand courses on Philosophy in the ReasonIO Academy - http://reasonio.teachable.com/ We currently building a course on Epictetus' Discourses - with much more in-depth videos and other resources - so keep an eye out for that later this summer!

My videos are used by students, lifelong learners, other professors, and professionals to learn more about topics, texts, and thinkers in philosophy, religious studies, literature, social-political theory, critical thinking, and communications. These include college and university classes, British A-levels preparation, and Indian civil service (IAS) examination preparation
