Now you can visualize that by making each row represent a day in Excel.  Fill up the columns with PT/Caloric Intake/Net Worth/Sexual Activity, New Toys, Bills, and everything else people worry about.  How's your life looking?

This is actually a really great way to look at time's value. So timely as well. I wonder how many of my days have been burned with my eyes glued to a screen of some sort, too many thanks thousand I'm afraid...

Thanks everyone for the kind feedback so far.  I'm always open to constructive criticism.  I really enjoyed writing this article and thinking about my own life in this way.  Helps to put things into perspective and keep them there.

We can all avoid lifestyle creep, but there's no way to avoid time creep.

All men die.  Not every man (or woman) truly LIVES.

I'm hoping for more than 30,000, but since that's the title... 15,000 down, 15,000 to go.  Uggh.  Wake up call.

This is an epic post. That 30,000 number really scared the crap out of me!

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
