Personal development expert warns social media has more negatives than positives despite wealth-building potential

The Thoughts You’re Thinking Right Now Are DESTROYING Your Future | Ed Mylett
What was said
"I really love social media. It's made becoming wealthy much easier. It's allowed average everyday people like you and me to build extraordinary wealth. But I actually have begun to believe that social media has more negatives than positives."
Despite crediting social media for democratizing wealth creation and business building, the speaker has concluded the psychological costs outweigh benefits. He cites addiction, stress, toxicity, comparison, algorithm manipulation of the brain, and constant distraction as creating an unhealthy mental diet that most people consume without awareness or breaks.
