Works for Albania.
Its not like google fucking earned that money anyways. You don't earn billions of dollars.
Think about it. If you earned a million dollars a year, you'd be set for life. If you lived for a full hundred years you'd have only made 1/10th of a billion dollars. Despite the fact that its still more money than either of us will probably ever see.
The people who operate google have billions with an s at the end. Think about the hardest working person you've known. Think about how little money they made.
Now ask yourself, what did the people with billions do to earn that money? How hard did they have to work to justify it, and how is that level of work even humanly possible? How would a bunch of spoiled overgrown trustfund fratboys find it in themselves do that work?
They fucking don't. The only people who get that rich do it by cheating, and stealing, and fucking people over. Those fuckers owe us a lot more than video streaming services.
Your math is off. You said one million per day, but your 1/10 of a billion would have it as one million per year
Oof that's a typo, yeah meant years. Sorry bud.
