Reading investor reports is interesting as well, to see what companies think you're worth to them. Check out Roku's ARPU - it's something like $40 a year now per user in marketing.


So basically I have a $40/yr marketing tax on everything I buy, and that's just to pay for Roku.

I wonder how much things would cost if we cut out the entire multibillion dollar advertising industry and just paid for things directly.
