this time into the predictions.
Did I do it last year?
One of the things that I think last year is one of the things I talked about.
One of the things that worries me is that, you know, parents driving in their car, the kids are in the backseat, they're getting, and they're going home, when are you getting home?
And that was how we used to drive home.
Now the kids get an iPad,
and become YouTube experts and they're quiet in the back and the parents love it.
But you set kids up from four or five years old to get dopamine reactions.
They know how to manipulate YouTube continuously.
And it's not only that they are getting this dopamine high, there's something else called dopamine too that actually removes your willpower in these kind of cases.
Whenever you stand at the bus stop next time, look at how many people pull their cell phone out, even if they know that the bus is three minutes away.
Nobody wants to be bored anymore.
Nobody will just stare out in the distance and use their brains.
And we can't help ourselves because we've ruined ourselves.
And if we do this with our young kids, we will have an epidemic on our hands 10, 15 years from now in terms of addiction.
Amazing.
Sorry, guys.
I keep yapping.
Okay.
Well, I really enjoyed it, guys.
