Thinking about time

I think. A lot. I don't think that's bad. I simply can't stand not thinking. About the future, the past, the present. I dislike talking about crap, small talk and wasting time. I prefer doing things, talking is a waste of time! If people talk less and did more, the world will be a better place. Many people spend their lives floating away their time. Doing absolutely nothing other than their job, with no aims, no dreams, nothing. That's none of my business, but I find that absolutely tragic.

People always think the "next generation" after them is always better. Oh really, in what way? Lifestyle? No, it's just different. Finance wise? No we're becoming poorer if you take into consideration inflation. If you don't put energy into your children or society, entropy results. It's like this. Poor kid becomes rich through hard work. Rich kid now has a family, transforms into rich dad and provides everything for his children because he "really loves them". Children have no concept of hard work, money, etc and think everything "falls from the sky", having the benefit of born into a rich family. Children never learn the concepts or understand what working is from their parents. Rich dad passes away, leaving children will all the money. Children will inevitably squander all that money, and so the cycle repeats.

Look around you, you can see this is at work. Many children from rich families have absolutely no concept of money or hard work because they think, hey if my parents die, I can have all this money, so really why do I need to think about finances? This is extremely evident in western society. I wouldn't say it is the same for Asian countries because the mentality is very different with saving an important habit in almost every family. Western society thinks social benefits are an obligation, that they deserve it. Heck no wonder they are getting poorer. Managing money is much more important than receiving it.

Millionaire mindset or winning a million dollars? You decide.

At my age, I realise time is more valuable than anything. We're all given limited time on Earth, but unlimited everything else. Time flies, literally. For me anyway. See.. in life we don't really run out of anything, except time. Everyone can be a millionaire, with enough time. Time is more valuable than anything else. Everyone gets the same amount of time in a day.

Spend time wisely.
