Six hours a week sounds like a lot until you realize most of it is probably five minutes here and there while you're sitting on the couch or waiting in line, not some big block of time. I've done the same thing with car listings and camping gear, browsing stuff I had zero plans to buy, and blocking the sites at 7pm just pushed it to 8am the next day. The real question is whether it's actually costing him anything he cares about. If his work and sleep are fine and he's not going broke, calling it a part time job feels like a stretch.

Had the same thing happen with my brush set last year and I was convinced the counter was broken, kept checking it every hour like a weirdo. Took me weeks to figure out most of my traffic came from a random Reddit thread and one pin that blew up.

Six hours staring at one coin under bad lighting, was that really worth it?
