It's a Short Life

Bad news, my friend. If you’re as old as I am, you have approximately seven thousand days left to live.

Let me explain. The average active human life spans 60 years, during which individuals can engage in various activities such as walking, running, and recovering quickly from illnesses. Now, let’s break down the numbers:

Sixty years is equivalent to 21,900 days, forty years is 14,600 days, and twenty years is just 7,300 days to live an active life. These calculations assume that individuals avoid succumbing to illnesses or accidents before reaching the age of 60.

Here’s a breakdown of the average life expectancy:

- Active life: 60 years x 365 days per year = 21,900 days
- Expanded life: 40 years x 365 days per year = 14,600 days
- Balance life: 20 years x 365 days per year = 7,300 days

Isn’t it remarkable to think that each of us has an average of 21,900 days to live? When we consider money, 21,900 rupees seems incredibly insignificant, while 7,300 is practically nothing.

Since I’m already 40 years old, I must be careful with every rupee (Day) I spend because I have a limited time left. 😄

Ancient Traders

When there was nothing —no technology, science, government, society, and its laws like marriage—traders still existed. Both men and women were traders. From nature, men acquired muscle power and the ability to utilize it, while women developed beauty and the capacity to use it. Consequently, they began trading these attributes with one another. Men employed their muscle power for hunting and gathering, and they shared the food with women in exchange for sex, as that was the sole requirement for men at that time—to eat, sleep, and reproduce. This natural integration is encoded in their DNA. This behavior persists in animals, suggesting that all humans were once animals. The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle famously stated, “Man is by nature a social animal.” Both men and women were free to change partners whenever they found a better trade deal. However, men soon realized that trading for sex was an expensive and time-consuming endeavor. There was always a better provider for wome...

It's Rich People's Game

Investing, Thinking, Reading, Meditating and Leisure are activities that are often associated with wealth and privilege. While money is certainly a form of wealth, true richness lies in time and mental well-being. It’s important to distinguish between "Richness" and merely having a lot of money. Time-rich and mind-rich individuals are often more valuable than those who are solely focused on financial gain. A mind-rich person can easily generate money and time, while a time-rich person can easily acquire money and a rich mind if they choose to. This is because time-rich individuals can utilise their time effectively by working hard and reading mindfully. This concept is similar to the power, sex, and money triad that has dominated the world for centuries and is likely to continue doing so. Whoever possesses one of these elements can often easily obtain the other two. Sex has historically been used to control power and money, money has been used to buy sex and power, and pow...
