    Ah yes, that’s what will get me to engage with ads all they needed to do was put my face in them.

      Ads are much more likely to be effective on me if they have attractive people in them.

      I was taught none of that during my undergrad. Instead, i say that people who are greedy just happened to get business degrees as a tool to help them be greedy.

        It’s certainly engaged me to never, ever invest in their services. Ever.
