Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, Blue Origin's all-women space flight with Katy Perry made history, controversy, and memes.
Then remember to peel the Made in America sticker off your new supercomputer. NVIDIA announced yesterday it'll start making AI chips in the U.S. of A. It's Tuesday, April 15th. Let's ride. Good morning and happy Tuesday.
Neil, my Instagram feed has been filled with Coachella goers this past week as hundreds of thousands flocked to the California desert to rub shoulders with Timothée Chalamet and spend $650 a pop on a ticket. And if you're thinking to yourself as your fingers tap through yet another story of Lady Gaga's set, dang, do all my friends got it like that?
The answer is probably no, they do not got it like that. According to a Billboard report, more than half of all general admission attendees bought their tickets through payment plans this year. Back in 2009 when the festival first launched its payment plan program, 18% of attendees used it. Now that number is around 60%. Recession indicator, Neil, just bad money management or worth it?
Well, the first thing to know about this is Coachella is not the only music festival that gets a majority of its tickets through these payment plans. Lollapalooza, Electric Daisy, Carnival, Rolling Loud all sell a majority of their tickets using some kind of payment plan system. And then to your question of whether these people are financially illiterate, I think the opposite. I think they're
Finance experts, because back in college, I did learn a few things, and one of them was the time value of money. A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. So if you can get an interest-free plan to keep money now instead of spending it now, that is savvy.
Assuming you can pay it off, it is savvy, Neil. Look at you, Neil, encouraging people to live in the moment. Now a word from our sponsor, Planet Oat. Neil, you know what makes the foundation of a good relationship?
