		<description>Ryan, great comment, keep them coming! :)
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;&quot;Essentially you are saying that watching videos on the internet and reading articles on the, “definition of free,” is a much better use of your time than reconfiguring your internet so that you can save money.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
It depends on the situation, I am pretty sure this particular guy didn&#039;t save any real money for the 14 hours he invested. Remember, this was a few years ago, it&#039;s hard enough to save any real money calling for free through the internet nowadays (due to the small percentage of people who are using it), then what about 5 or 7 years ago?

That being said, I suppose the definition should be a little more wider. Perhaps we should start to look into things by their ROI (Return of Investment) and through that decide if we are wasting our time or using it &quot;wisely&quot; (I agree, the term is broad and I am not going to define it).

I suppose we can now conclude:
Ryan, if you think reading my blog is wise than continue doing that if not then .... I don&#039;t know what to tell you :roll:</description>

		<description>It&#039;s inevitable for people to waste a few hours doing something &quot;pointless.&quot; I argue that his 14 hours spent was much more productive than spending that time watching a movie, television, etc.

Please clarify the last paragraph in which you ask us to spend our time in a &quot;wise matter.&quot; If subscribing to your blog is NOT a waste of time, does that also encompass surfing the internet? Essentially you are saying that watching videos on the internet and reading articles on the, &quot;definition of free,&quot; is a much better use of your time than reconfiguring your internet so that you can save money. It is true that time is more precious than money but if someone is going to waste their time on the internet anyway (Subscribing to blogs) then why don&#039;t they make it productive and save money in the process?

I think that the lesson here is that although it is very hard to ALWAYS spend you time in a &quot;wise matter,&quot;(Unless someone can honestly tell me that they are constantly doing something productive 24/7.) one should be wary of their usage of time.</description>
