The Time Trade

“live as if you were destined to live forever, no thought of your frailty ever enters your head, of how much time has already gone by you take no heed. You squander time as if you drew from a full and abundant supply, though all the while that day which you bestow on some person or thing is perhaps your last.”
 Someone posted a Twitter poll that asked to choose between these options:
 Live the rest Warren Buffet’s life: become an uber-billionaire, but be 88 years old
 Life a broke 18-year-olds life: not ideal, but plenty of time left

You can guess which one most people chose. What good is money when you have little time left to spend it?

 In the book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying, one of the regrets was wasting too much time on work. Keep in mind, the regret wasn’t over having a vocation, but rather a job that only carried meanings of status, money, and prestige. Work is a third of your life. Why trade it for the materials of this world and status among people you don’t even like?
