SUPERANNUATION IS WHAT WE GET PAID FOR BEING BORED FOR THIRTY YEARS

Life is about doing things!

It seems to me we’re obsessed with having things. We put ourselves in debt for thirty years in order to own a house. We work thankless jobs we hate for thirty years in order to have sufficient money to retire with some security and to die in absolute obscurity.

There is another way. The idea is to dream up the things you want to do and then make them happen.

Life is not about having things, life is about doing things.

Doing things usually has a rewarding result. You either make more money than you need without getting bored in the process or you discover that you don’t really need all that fiscal security to live happily ever after. You also die smiling.

Quote for the week

icon_ltgray_open_quoteHugging is the ideal gift. Great for any occasion, fun to give and receive, shows you care, comes with its own wrapping and, of course, is fully returnable. Hugging is practically perfect. No batteries to wear out, inflation-proof, nonfattening, no monthly payments, theft-proof and nontaxable. icon_ltgray_close_quote
