It’s probably the same psychology stores use to price products: buy one, get two free, now only $49.99. You feel like you are investing less, but it’s exactly the point where your brain says it’s okay to spend the money.

In our case, we are just talking about where your are spending your time reading. I never thought of it that way until now.

Anywho, I’ll probably write that article when I get a chance, because it could be a fun little piece to write without being derogatory.
