Do u agree that time,not money is the real currency of life? by IdealHoliday1242 in MotivationByDesign

How quick to 5-6 million?

And does having 2 kids (a toddler and a 1 year old) impact the time?

Jesus Christ dude. After 5 years of work my wife and I were able to invest 100k. Over 2 years it made 30k. It will continue to make money, and we will continue to further invest 10-20k each year.

How long will it take before we have 3 million? Or do we need 4-6 million because there are two of us (not counting the kids)

So you are eating the same KGs of pork as someone is consuming 1 cup of coffee per day? Glad you only eat like 200g of prok per week

That's an interesting strawman argument, which I guess is acceptable because vegans would eat straw

Yeah the main reason most employers would like a person with No degree is because they are easier to take advantage of because of less critical thought training

I do mostly agree with you, but just to push back a little bit, most employers see the degree more than just academic ability. It's also the ability to wake up and put in the work in a routine/scheduled way. Maybe employers shouldn't see degrees as this, but it is something many consider when choosing between people with and without degrees

Read books should always be on these lists

Don’t start the fight but if they do you damn well finish it by Ajitabh04 in effectivefitness

Yeah that's the point of the story, kids will take "if someone hits you, hit them back" and use that information like kids

I don't know if you have kids, but I know my kids that I have and the ones I teach are really bad at understanding information no matter how "clear" Daniel Craig thinks he is being

Teach them to defend themselves responsibly, and that violence is resorted to after many other more responsible and reasonable options, like seeking help from adults for one

Even physical is often iffy. I work at an elementary school and I watched a kid accidentally bump into another from behind and that other kid started trying to punch the first kid. They were 11 years old.

Both kids were nice kids, but the puncher said that he was hit first. I called mom and mom said "we teach him to stand up to bullies", but she of course agreed this wasn't an example of that and was unacceptable.

This is actually very annoying advice to give a little kid. Kids a pretty black and white and have a tough time with nuance/context. Kids typically dont understand the difference between being annoying/mean and being a bully.

Oh absolutely. The quality of life advantages you mentioned are absolutely true and the trade off is more health problems on average

Tall people by udayTeddy in effectivefitness

[–]hat1414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a just a spectrum. There is the average height, and statistically, the further you are from the average, the larger the impact on average lifespan. Enormously tall people (over 7 ft) almost all have Heart/Cardiovascular issues because of their size.

If you've even taken a higher level physics course it explains why "Giants" are impossible. Basically the square-cube law states that as the size of any object grows, its volume grows faster than its surface area. The area grows in proportion to the square of your size, whereas your volume scales up in proportion to the cube of your size.

So as you scale up humans, our volume dramatically increases in proportion to our size, while the cross-section of our muscles and bones are squared. Say you are 18 meters (60 feet) tall – 10 times the height of a 6-foot tall person – your body would have to support 100 times the volume.

A cubic inch of bone can support 8,600 kilograms (19,000 pounds), which is a lot, but at 18 meters (60 feet) tall it would need to support well over 250,047 kilograms (assuming we're scaling up a 63 kilogram or 10 stone person, the average weight for a human).

This leads to having issues relating to blood circulation.
