Further in regards to the marshmallow experiment, it would be
interesting to see if these results would be the same across different
nations and cultures.
Also if different age groups produce different results.
For example, would people in their 50's from Germany be more disciplined
than their US counterparts? Guess it would depend on the quality of the
beer on offer.

In this case many people will take the immediate reward of a low price over the longer
term "deferred gratification" of higher reliability, better performance, and
lower total cost of ownership.
