Reading EasyPeasy, Cost of Porn
I have been reading Easy Peasy and got to the part about asking myself how much opportunity and time I have wasted of my life due to pornography. And after 20 years of almost 2-4 sessions per day. I have my number. Total Financial Opportunity Cost • Direct time: $229,950 (One for one, hours spent on porn instead of working) • Job losses: $74,880 (7 job losses, leading to months of unemployment) • Education (college dropout): $442,880 (Salary x Years I could of had my degree for) • Career progression: $44,716 (Loss of focus at work that could have lead to promotions) • Relationships: $40,320 (time invested in people that I failed to make long term commitments with and no longer apart of my life.) • Emotional/productivity: $149,760 (Feeling “sick” calling out of work, missing hours, unmotivated time spent sulking instead) • Total: $982,506 Gut wrenching but even more motivated now to keep going.
Be aware you should not be effective 100% of the time. You probably could've spend the time you fapped on other relaxing activities. Don't bash yourself too much over this, 99% of the people waste time on useless shit. But you've chosen to be better, that's what matters.
