How YouTube Helped Save Me $100
Growing up I never understood why technicians charged more for a work that took them less than 30 minutes to do. I met my dad and asked him why? He said, when you call a technician to do a work for you and he does it in a short time, you are paying for his knowledge and the time he took to acquire that knowledge. That made more sense to me as I got older and started paying technicians when I needed them. But then, we have YouTube, an informative platform that I sometime forget to use even though its at my finger tip. Youtube can help solve almost any technical issue you have, check YouTube and follow the steps.

I use my laptop everyday, sometimes I don’t shut it down, I just let my laptop sleep, but I heard its not good, we should always learn to shut it down. So I started shutting down my laptop. My laptop is a finger print unlock laptop, when its asleep, I can unlock it with my finger print. But when I shut it down, I need to use my password to unlock it, I really dont know why apple didn’t enable finger print unlock when you start up your laptop. But today, when I put on my laptop and typed my password, for the first time my laptop rejected my password. It didn’t say if my password was wrong or not, it just didn’t unlock my laptop. I typed it for hours and it kept rejecting my password, I started doubting myself and my password, and was frustrated because I wanted to make use of my laptop.
I called a laptop repair guy and he charged me $100 because its a MacBook and he assumes I have free $100 to spare, I called a lot of people and they said it was weird that my password is not unlocking my laptop. I was trying my best not to panic, so I decided to turn to YouTube, besides YouTube is free. So I watched couple of videos on YouTube on how to restart my laptop and in less than 30 minutes I got access to my laptop. The video taught me how to restart and unlock my laptop, and I have never been so grateful to YouTube like I am today. Because this is the same thing I was supposed to pay $100 for. incase you ever find yourself in such situation and you use a MacBook watch this YouTube video

Some technicians, just take advantage of people. Not only did you save a $100. You reduced the chance of being duped by someone who would go and watch the same video you did or worse damage it by trying out something.
That is so right. I’m glad I didn’t fall for that.
