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. 😄

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...

Wealth is created not by money, but by mindset

M ost of us claim to want to be rich, but in reality, we don’t. We merely desire money to spend on our desires and fulfil our wants, only to lose it again. Essentially, we want to appear and feel wealthy rather than actually be rich. Being money-rich means having a substantial amount of money available without the need to spend it. How can one become wealthy if they continue earning and spending the same amount, resulting in a zero bank balance? If asked what they would do with a one-crore rupee, people would list their desired purchases, such as a car, a flat, a mobile phone, and jewellery. However, no one would say they would do nothing with the money because they don’t need to spend it. In contrast, the second type of person would be one-crore rupee richer than the first because the first person has already spent all their money on their desired purchases, leaving their bank balance at zero. Nevertheless, the second person still has one-crore rupee. Now, if the person who s...
