Billionaires make 10000x that, and the IRS can't afford to check them.

The left is already 600 Bucks a day. This is sufficient money. Hence the right should never be chosen. Greed is not always good. If you can have enough forever vs. More + downside/condition you should always choose the easy out.

I am torn by this comment. The Internet says we take something like 20,000 breaths a day which is $1000 a day. Like you said that is plenty of money and you will collect it until the day you die.

On the other hand walking 10k steps a day is 1.5x that, and I get on average more than 10k steps a day, but I don't make money while I am asleep or if I am on a cruise or a plane, or if I hurt myself and can no longer walk.

Maybe what id do is take the steps, run enough in a couple months to have a sizeable seed investment and then put it in the market and then just live. Never look at or care about additional my walking money and just live my life like I want.

The recommendations for health is 5,000 to 10,000 steps per day, which is $1,250 to $2,500 per day.

While the first is better on the case of unexpected disability, the second is probably going to lead to a better life overall.

the IRS is a feeble, gutted institution. its task is to collect money from the rich and use it for the public good, but it has become so underfunded and hogtied by the fat cats in power that it can barely do this job.

so, no, the IRS ain't fuckin watching any of us, and probably won't have time to ask for your money unless there's enough of it missing.

and we should start respecting the institution and bring some power back to it so they can at least go for the rich guys not paying.

They just got several billion from the inflation reduction act to actually fix themselves which is why they can finally do our taxes. They are also projected to be able to collect an additional 500 billion from tax evaders into the next decade.

I can do anything when I'm breathing. Walking kind of puts everything else on hold.

Breathing would give me enough money. I'd choose it to be able to be free from any obligations.

Standing desk + treadmill. It's easy to go for an hour or two

What about bonds you break, or claims you stake?

Breath is relatively constant, so yeah.

[–] brygphilomena@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

My exercise induced asthma says fuck you to either choice I make.

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 months ago

If you do the average 8,000 steps a day that's $2,000 just by walking. IRS may be watching, but I'll pay my taxes on that just fine.
