My macro theory professor on the transversality condition

This condition basically says, don't save too much. It's not a rule, just a condition for optimality. It's because if a consumer saves too much, she's just not enjoying herself.

Most of you were told: Johnny, study a lot, work hard. Then when you're old, you will be able to enjoy yourself. But you're graduate students. It's too late for you guys. At this point, you're completely incapable of enjoying yourself.

But we can at least study normal people who enjoy themselves.
