    The point is, you’re an exception.

    Cororations found out long ago that most people value a couple bucks a month more than they value a 1-3 minute chunk of their time a few times an hour while they’re being entertained.

    Listen, pay me a dollar and I’ll show you a cool mind trick.

    Oh, you dont have/want to spend a dollar? Or you’re skeptical of the trick? Well, you could just listen to me hum a tune for a few seconds and then I’ll show you the trick. In fact, you don’t even have to listen, just let me hum a tune in your presence. Just for a few seconds. Then I’ll show the trick anyway.

    Sound better? Cool.

    Hmmm Hmm Hmmmm Hmm

    That wasn’t so bad.

    Ready for the cool trick?

    You already missed it. That was the trick. Be sure to smash the bell and hit subscribe.
