 I want to share with you a phrase which I learned in college and it's called opportunity cost. Now I just pulled up the dictionary definition. Opportunity cost refers to a benefit that a person could have received but gave up to take another course of action. Kind of like you have two choices and you can only pick one. So how that makes sense for this video is that that progress with the trip 49 states or to take advantage of some friendships that I've made on YouTube to grow the channel and which therefore would also help me out in the long term because there's two things that you need to do when you're on YouTube. Number one, you've got to make cool content and that's what this whole project is about. And number two, you've got to have numbers if you want to sustain yourself because I don't have a trust fund. I'm working off savings and some sponsorship which has ended so if you're Chick-fil-A or anybody have your people call my people. I need some cash. Past couple days, I've been hanging out here. I've been waiting for a heater. The heater is supposed to arrive today. So how the opportunity cost works for that is that I kind of wasted three days, well more than that because it was a weekend, I wasted, say, four days waiting for a new heater because this darn heater doesn't work. So today the heater comes. Gotta get rid of that terrible thing. And then we will hit the road. Now, I feel stuck. Not like mentally, but I mean like, I feel stuck because I'm not progressing on states. I'm in Washington. I've hit the western half of the United States and what I think I'm going to do is I think I'm going to try and plan out some collapse. California. Havasu with Jamie, enigmatic nomadics from possibly 10 days after that. Fun for Louis is flying her in from around the world. That would be nice to see him and the crew for I think three days. I'm going to try and get Josh and Cody back on the bus. There are some other people who are in and out of town, but unfortunately, everybody flies into a big city not in the middle of nowhere. So if I do swing through, I'm going to have to make the most of it. So we wait. Is the camera still on? We wait. It's on low battery. We're waiting for the friendly UPS guy to deliver the brand new heater. The new heater is here. Let's see. All right. This is it guys. There's really nothing special to this thing. It's just a freaking heater. Cross your fingers. I really hope this works. I haven't showered yet, except for cold showers with Danny Adventure Bus. It's really been aggravating me and I don't like failing over and over and over. So hopefully we'll fix that. And that's one of the reasons why I feel like I got out of shape is because I couldn't rinse off the sweat. So hopefully I won't have that as an excuse anymore. And how amazing would a hot shower be after going surfing in some cold water? I mean that would be like super extra. You know? That'd be awesome. That'd be lit. This is a little cheap backpack rain cover. I got it Walmart. Should go around this. Let's go test it out on the one that's already there. That way we'll see if it's going to work or not. This is what it looks like. Totally on and totally strapped up. Not going to work. Well, seeing that it's a kind of moist day today and seeing that I failed it's already almost four or five o'clock traffic. I don't think this is going to get on today and I'm a little worried about the moisture. I'm worried that if I put this thing on and drive in the rain it's going to ruin it. So here we are at a point where I have to make a choice. Again, this is where opportunity cost comes into play. Do I take off and fix this later? Say in the desert, maybe with Jamie in about 10, 12 days or something like that? 14 days? Or do I waste more time here? That's it. And then take off. Well, I got a lot of things to think about. I don't like being idle. I don't like not uploading. I like being on the go. I like uploading. So I'll let you guys know what I decide.
