How about medical care? We pay the practitioner to prescribe medication,
or changes to our lifestyle which gives us the *opportunity* for better
health, but it is up to us whether we take the medication, change our
lifestyles, give up smoking, etc.

Another example may be going on vacation. Paying a large fee to a
tropical resort gives us the *opportunity* for relaxation, enjoyment or
whatever we are seeking, but it is up to us to actually allow ourselves to
relax, have fun, etc. I've come across some pretty miserable people
paying $500/day at a resort.
