Since getting into bitcoin not too long ago, I have been very much attracted to faucets. I have what you might call an obsession with the stock market, and if I could get a fraction of a share of, say, Coca-Cola or Apple for free by looking at their advertising I'd jump on it like it was a slut wagon. With BTC it's kind of the same way, because it behaves like a stock somewhat.

What I'm getting at is this: My frontal cortex is telling me that the time I spend getting a few satoshis could be better spent on other tasks. If it was a purely economic decision, I could work more hours or do something else to earn money. The amount faucets give you is pretty trivial in all but the most economically depressed countries, but I do believe that something in my brain that comes from earlier stages of evolution tells me that getting something, anything, for free, is GOOD. And that's the impetus to keep clicking away on those faucets.

Does anyone else here get this sort of thought?

BTW, feel free to insult me. God knows my last 100 posts have been filled with vitriol. It is true that I detest people (you included), but I try to play nicely sometimes.

In all honesty, you have a healthy obsession. Grin
