This is why the App Store for every phone is overrun with stupid free-to-play garbage that is all about making you spend money to make the game less shitty, because there are just enough people out there who plop down $25k and pay their salaries.

Hasn’t a book about the psychology of habit-forming products been advertised here? Not too long ago?

Anyway, speaking as one who leans much more strongly toward socialist ideals than capitalist ones: as much as I like to think I’d be exquisitely principled if I came into loads of cash, I don’t really know that I would.
