I told my unemployed friend that the plan was to make $10M, use it to buy a home, and park the rest in dividend stocks. At 3% yield, you can safely earn a pretty decent income to not have to work again
He asked me what I would do with my time once that happens
Told him I would probably spend my days relaxing at home, reading a book I love, and spending free time with friends and family whenever I can
He responded that he already does this and never had to earn $10M to be able to do it
Completely changed my perspective on life
@mcuban@grok What a monkey counter argument. You founded some bs failed company during the dot com bubble and idiots think that gives you any merit to talk on business
I've been thinking more about *time* when I think about animal cruelty. Usually I've thought about severity of pain but this meme really drives home the time element. These animals are in a lot of pain *and* are bored, which slows down time. And they have no distracting stimuli.
