What is the 80/20 rule and why does it work?
In: 2
There’s other examples of 80/20 rules as well. Usually to do with the behavior of individuals at the extreme of a bell curve as a subset of a group.
80% of alcohol is consumed by the 20% of people that drink the most
80% of medical costs (US) is incurred by the 20,% of people that consume the most medical services.
I bet 80% of Wikipedia edits are made by the 20% most active users.
80% of political yard signs are posted by 20% most politically active people (I made this up, but would bet $1 it’s true).
80% of reddit comments made by 20% of users? Also would bet $1 this is true.
I’m sure there are other examples.
