Thread: How To Earn $4,500/hr Return on Your Time, for 4 Seconds

Thanks for the article, MJ!

As good old Ben said: "A penny saved is a penny earned." (and perhaps the guy on the 100 USD bill should know best).

To "earn" and to "spend" is basically the same thing, just from a different point of view: when you earn money, you receive money in exchange for something and when you spend money, the other person receives money in exchange for something.

So I guess the trick is, to find a good balance between earning and spending (in order to make money "flow").

It's funny when you see the "coupon mentality" that you talk about in other things. Here in the UK, British papers will often criticise sports stars when they're injured and don't get much game time. Say XYZ soccer only played ten games this year because of injury- the papers will divide their weekly pay by onfield minutes. "XYZ star earned £400,000 a minute!"
I loved reading how you described the process/event way at looking at things in your book. Unlike your coupon example the newspapers are forgetting the process to rehab and get back on the field at an elite standard. Your process here is 4 seconds. The coupon mentality's process is much more invested for little gains as you say. On the counterside the process for an injured athlete can be massive but is overlooked by many.
It's crazy how many "norms" in society have this backward!
