5% of 2T would be $100B, not $100M.

Funny that watching YouTube was not one of the things she did, whereas most people spend hours on YouTube/social media.

Case in point: I had to take my extended family visiting us to Manhattan for 2 days last week. Total 6 adults. The cost of taking the LIRR and Subway would have been upwards of $180 (LIRR $120 + Subway $60) per day! Driving was much more affordable (and convenient) even with the expensive parking charges of $50 for 12 hrs of parking in prime locations.

Public transportation needs to become more affordable first. I would have happily taken the train if it was comparable in cost.

But, I guess I am the minority case.

I read somewhere that libraries pay a decent amount to the publishers for every audiobook borrowed through Libby. So I always try to make sure the book interests me and will actually listen to it once borrowed.

We do the same. What's a good alternative for videos?
