Bellman and McFadden walk into a sports bar... (Part 1)
The title sounds like the beginning of a joke. However, a while back, I was taught about dynamic discrete choice models. The idea is simple: there is a discrete choice to be done, but these choices impact the future. Example: you choose today if you are going to study more (say, going to college, a MBA or a PhD) or go to get a job. The idea of studying is that it doesn’t pay great, but increases your pay when you try to get a job next period.
