Speaking of Huge Wastes of Time

Time period: March 2004 - June 2005 = 15 months = 66 weeks = 450+ days

Average time spent in game per day: 3.5 hours

Time spent in game per week: 25 hours

Per month: 100 + hours

Per year: 1278 hours

Total time spent in game: Approximately 1575 hours or over 65 full days.

That's how long I was away from my family during the 15 months I was hooked.

Imagine if I had spent even 1/2 of that time practicing piano, or learning French, or going back to college, or writing a book, or volunteering at a food bank, or training for a marathon, or learning to fly a plane, or working at a part time job, or, well, you get the picture.
