Quick calculation.
3 hours per day.
2 minutes of ads per hour.
For 365 days that’s 2190 minutes or 36 hours of ads.
The cost of YouTube premium per year is 280.
This implies that YouTube assumes we value our free time at least at 8 an hour.
Conclusion: I make more hence I should buy. All right now let’s discuss.
You watch YouTube for 3 hours a day?
I’m less than an hour a week
What ^ said. What do you even watch 3 hours a day?
The math is correct but you should factor in that you can compound the ■■■■ of that 280 bucks with your 20% CAGR. So basically, assuming a perpetual investment time horizon, you’re paying millions to save a few minutes of your time.
Actually I already go by that thinking. I view every dollar spend today as 120 bucks fiddy yrs from now.
But the idea that you just wouldn’t spend because of future gains when you need something is hilarious.
We spend time to make money today via work but eventually we spend money to make time.
It’s all about the balance. There is a sweet spot in between living paycheck to paycheck (due to spending habits) and trying to be richest corpse.
Cheeky “Ay, mijo!!” meme goes here.
I watch a lot of finance content on YouTube, which tends to attract some of the most annoying and cringey ads possible.
I think YT Premium is worth paying for just to not see them.

Use AdBlock my man!
Most of this content is consumed on mobile, unfortunately.
If I had the option, it would definitely be a no-brainer.
Welcome to water cooler. Where the players play.
Where we drop utter nonsense. Like everyday
Nice to see some new blood.
We need new blood and discussion. WC was popping before Covid. Legendary threads like that one about the Indian dude who sued CFA institute for not letting him pass Level 1.
@Black_Swan where you at?
I can’t decide whether this was a rap verse or a haiku. Maybe both.
Rap verseeee buddy. I don’t listen to rap as much as I wfh and I don’t go clubbing anymore
