The Hidden Cost of Your Daily Scroll

You spend over 7 hours daily giving away your most finite resource—attention—for free. Every Instagram scroll, YouTube binge, and TikTok rabbit hole generates billions for platforms while you get nothing but dopamine hits and lost time.


That's 2,500+ hours annually of pure focus flowing to tech giants. Your attention built their empires, funded their growth, and made creators wealthy. Meanwhile, you're left mentally fatigues, distracted, and financially unchanged.


As AI handles more jobs, human attention becomes the ultimate scarce commodity. The attention economy isn't coming—it's here. The only question is whether you'll start recognizing the true cost of giving it away so cheaply, or keep trading your mental energy for entertainment that leaves you empty.
