Also, people are lazy. If people can pay geeks to come fix their stuff and not leave their home, they are happy.
Also they ge to deal with you in their own space. Going into a Best Buy for help can be very intimidating for some people.

Tens of millions goes a long way towards retirement.
This sounds completely boring.
