You Aren't Very Productive!
Being a slave to the state and a slave to society for the most part, you of course aren't truly free, and you certainly aren't really productive.
You are of course (most people) productive enough to get by. You are productive enough for the state to survive (By State I mean the government - local, state, county, federal) too. Actually that's not entirely true, since we have passed along the debt to our children and grand children. However you get my drift I'm sure.
Paul McCartney it is said makes $300 a minute on average. Give or take $100 an hour depending on many variables of course. Nonetheless, this ain't too shabby pay for a hard days night.
Does Paul McCartney really work? Probably hasn't really worked most of his entire life. I don't know that to be really true, but the life of a rock star can't be that tough right? However, Sir Paul is super productive.
I've also mentioned this point to several friends who think I'm nuts for thinking this way:
If you make $20 an hour, and you are working 40 hours per week, you are making $800 a week. That's $41,600 a year. However, there are 168 hours in a week. If you divide that by $20, you are only making $8.40 an hour. Take away taxes and you are probably making $4.77 an hour.
So a majority of your time, you aren't making any money. In fact, you are spending money in your free time - bills, entertainment, utilities, losing it etc. You need to think and know that your life is 168 hours a week, not 40. If you are working 40 to pay for 168, that 40 better compensate the rest.
What are you spinning your wheels for? Spare me the "Well you can't work 168 hours a week" garbage. Yeah I know you need to sleep. I know you need your beer. I know you need your American Idol. I know you need your daily dose of www.hockeydino.com. That's not my point. My point is, you need to make money, more than what you do because $4.77 an hour sucks.
Understand?
