I dont really understand I guess. People are weird. I value my time more than that. The time required to get the login from someone else, that act alone, has cost me more than $8 just in time factor.

I have a fairly rich client. Brain surgeon. Drives a Lamborghini. The guy pirates movies and TV with kodi on Amazon fire. What does a brain surgeon make? $5000 an hour? You cant spring $15 for Incredibles 2 and save yourself the effort of searching kodi for a decent stream?

I know a pediatrician that used high school kids to paint his house. He had them climbing three scaffold bucks up to the end of his house. They did a horrible job. Then he had a retaining wall to build and used his son’s friends again. First big rain, the whole thing fell. So he paid for the wall twice because the second time he hired a pro.

At my house I handle all the projects under $1000. Anything that does/should cost more than that I hire a pro...for the same reason you mentioned...so I don't have to pay twice.

Dr's are are known for being bad with money. Alot of them are living hand to mouth.

They go 100's of thousands into debt to get a job they hope they like. If/when they don't, they're stuck and they buy stuff they don't need to help them feel better.

Plus it takes 0 business sense.

Jealous much?

Moderators, it's time to start cracking down on the people who insist on turning every post into a Political battle.  Most of us come to the "custom installers lounge" to have back and forth discussions about our work and the technology involved.  Please start banning those that can't handle the real world, so they make adolescent attempts to take out their frustrations here.

Snowflake much?

My post was about rich crybabies complaining about having to pay to watch TV. Similar to many of the other posts in this thread.

And my point was that Netflix is doing it right by limiting streams instead of cracking down on location.  Maybe cable and satellite should explore the same strategy before they're in the grave.

You made your point with your first sentence so why the need to go Political?
