Funny, wish that was true, but as far as I know time is your most precious commodity - you get just so much issued, no refunds and no extensions

I hope people realize that! It’s time to spend time In a different way.
I spend entirely too many hours a day tying my shoes

Sadly it takes most people 50+ years to figure that out and then some never do...

What should I be doing. Presently I have been staying at home like I'm supposed to

Joined TCA and TTOS in 1977 and have been collecting and playing with toy train for over 40 years Maybe it's time to give that up. :?:

a lot of people don't enjoy things. Enjoy the journey not the destination

The last 3 months has been an eye opener for me. I would run crazy. Drive to NYC at 5am. Sit in front of a building .fight with a doorman. Get a parking ticket. Argue with a cop. Work my fingers off. Drive home at 5pm. Be grumpy. Put the kid to bed. Then do it all over in a different city the next day. No more.

Opens the eyes as to what's important; maybe some will learn and some will actually remember.

The richest man in the world, Jeff Bezos ($113 billion,) can't buy time with his money but you can buy time.

How? By saving time spent on useless endeavors. Such as?

You posted an average of 5.6 times per page on the Corona Virus thread, talking about things like the incurable Trump Derangement Syndrome.
[5.6 posts/page x 107 pages (at the moment) = 599 posts] Maybe 0.2 hours reading then responding to each post? 0.2 x 599 = 112.8 hours.
If you had saved time in your time account by not even reading that thread you might have 112.8 hours saved up to spend on some other endeavor.

Very true.
Some folks never even grant themselves freedom.

I love when I see an artwork and understand the artist have himself the freedom to know something else.

No, you've chosen to disregard the real point being made - you get the time between birth and death, and no more.

A specious argument at best based on a host of faulty assumptions w/o any real data or basis.
