A speaker explains why working 10 hours for $1 might make sense if it leads to a scalable online business. The argument centers on exponential growth: low initial returns can compound into significant income over time through digital work.
Would you go work for 10 hours to make $1 online? Well, it depends on your time horizon, because in the short term, within those 10 hours, is a dollar for 10 hours of work a good return on investment? No, it's a horrible return on investment. But the upside and the potential is that when you take the 10 hours, for example, to learn how to make a dollar on the Internet, now every hour you put into your machine starts to scale exponentially. And that's sort of the beauty of Internet money or building digital businesses as they start to work marginal cost. You don't have to buy canned goods. You don't have to pay to ship physical products. So it might take you 10 hours or 100 hours to make your first dollar online. But as you keep building, you might get to a point where one hour of work yields you $5,000 or $10,000 or $100,000.
