It is not what you have, it is the rythm of you wasting it what determines if it is enough or not.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I'm curious to volunteer to try the wasting rhythm needed to burn up USD185billion :)

I would already be happy to have the opportunity to waste just 1 of it.

"American freedom" is the freedom not to do so. If society establishes systems where you through your working life are more or less forced to save up some money for your retirement, that is labeled as '*****lism', which is politics and therefore forbidden to bring up in the lounge. So I won't do that. (Well, this is in The Insider News, not the lounge. But I assume that rules are roughly the same: No matter the 'professional' relevance of the question - if a discussion revels deep, fundamental conflicts at a professional level, it easily boils down to 'politics' in the professional / PC sense. So maybe you ought to be considerate if you want to reply to this post.

$1 billion / year translates to $30 / second. Given that Bezos has ~$185 billion, and that his life expectancy is certainly under 50 years, he could spend ~$100 / second, and still leave a few billion to his heirs. I doubt we'll ever see him living under a bridge... :laugh: EDIT: s/Besos/Bezos/
