    it’s funny how many armchair money managers we have here who want to give up huge passive income in order to… have more money to invest and eventually get passive income.

    how much would an annuity that pays $150k/yr cost for somebody in their 20s or 30s? I can’t imagine it being less than $10 million. probably more like $50 million. so the logic is give up $10-$50 million in value, for the opportunity to maybe make it up in the long run, while hoping you never get injured or debilitated…

    so it’s about 20% more for walking based on those numbers.

    i would definitely take the breathing! there’s been too many times i couldn’t walk, that’s only going to increase as i age.

    imagine getting in a bad car crash the day after starting the walking deal, both legs are broken. now, you are broke two ways! it’s like adding insult to injury. that would be the worst feeling in the world.

    when it comes down to “enough money to never need to work” vs “enough money to never need to work +20%, with extra risk if you get injured” i’ll take the safe bet every time

    yes and others are working on it, also! i believe some android folks are (f-droid iirc), and i’ve heard about it elsewhere. this stuff is super nerdy (so therefore cool to nerds such as myself). before the internet existed it would be so hard to even imagine the need for this sort of thing!
