    Who checks their email 74 times a day lmao?

    • Javier Montoya

      December 5, 2022 at 9:15 pm

      The average person.

      ​@Javier Montoya who answered their survey, that is not necessarily the “average person.” Just remember there is a VERY large portion of the world that doesn’t even have an internet connection at all. There’s also a financial gap in many places that makes this amount of checking virtually impossible.

      Critically thinking about the information given to you, even when it’s presented as being researched by people in white coats, is extremely important when consuming information in studies (everyone has bias and it’s ESPECIALLY present in research were it’s publish or perish).

    • The Sauce Guy

      December 5, 2022 at 9:57 pm

      @Javier Montoya nice

    • The Sauce Guy

      December 5, 2022 at 10:00 pm

      @KyleCorbeau you also have to consider that there could be huge outliers that check very large amounts and they may not have accounted for those. I genuinely don’t know anybody who’d check that often, including psychologists working on grants etc lmao.

    Looking for a new stock or Cryptocurrency to invest in. Short or long term Gains. i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making well over $3.5M within a short period of time investing in Cryptocurrency. i need to know what coin to buy

    • Dan Graig

      December 5, 2022 at 9:51 pm

      Steve A Korduckia is really different from every other Brokers , his honest and pro, earned 52.3BTC from him. Thank God i stopped hodling, i would suggest you try him.

    • John Cris

      December 5, 2022 at 9:51 pm

      i agree, no doubt STEVE A KORDUCKI has really made a good name for himself. His reviews are so exceptional, he’s really a Pro. I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again.

    • rub tyson

      December 5, 2022 at 9:51 pm

      @John Cris there’s a lot of money to be made in crypto. I been trying to stick with index funds. I feel this new interest rates hikes could crash this economy. I’m looking out for a better investing strategy, I have a lump sum that inflation is steady eating up. i need help. How do I reach him?

    • John Cris

      December 5, 2022 at 9:53 pm

      @rub tyson check the web and you will find him, drop a msg

    Boredom leads me to have an urge to be productive. Not good.

  20. Steph Carder

    December 6, 2022 at 1:23 am

    Easy right? 😒

  21. Gwydion Jadu

    December 6, 2022 at 2:35 am

    “boredom can truly lead to brilliance” lmao right like corporate feudalism, manipulation of the masses thru media deception, fake news, money grubbing stock swindling corporate crookism that control the government and decide who will become the next elected official

    “privatize the gains socialize the losses” < true brilliance

  22. Anthony Davis

    December 6, 2022 at 4:52 am

    74 times a day is like 3 times every hour. Assuming you sleep that’s more like 5 times every hour. That’s crazy. I check my email maybe 3-5 times a day if at all.

  23. Luci Luci

    December 6, 2022 at 8:41 am

    Here’s a fact, I know it’s a fact, because I said it’s a fact.
    All I do is switch tasks. 563 times a day. Because that’s all ANYONE does on a PC. no task, just switch.

  24. Dustin Farinha

    December 6, 2022 at 2:11 pm

    The average person checks their emails 74 times a day. Me over here like 6 months deep of unchecked emails.

  25. Victor Linares

    December 6, 2022 at 4:41 pm

    Its a really bad habit i have of bombarding myself with constant entertainment. It really kills my creativity as a musician if i spend half of my practice yime looking at menes instead of just sitting there and letting my mind rest
