Theory of Relative Happiness - 2000-05-12
Hmmm??? it seems as if the more that people pay me for my time, the more costly it is for me to have some time for myself! I think I’ve just touched upon some kind of time-wealth continuum??? yeah, something like V=jw2– where V is the total value of one’s life, j equals one’s level of contentment at rest (that is, while not making any money), and w is a constant representing the theoretical limit as to how much money anyone can possibly make in any given time span (I would say that Bill Gates is at around 0.4w, which would mean 40% of the possible limit). I might be onto something here??? Idunno??? needs to be worked on more, no doubt??? and in the end (or even now) it may be completely bullshit. We’ll see???
