I’m richer than I’ve ever been, and I am far less spontaneous than I’ve ever been.
It’s not linear, it’s some weird polynomial equation!
It’s not how spontaneous you are is directly proportional is the ability to be spontaneous.
Man can be free only when and if he’s able to rise above his insecurities
I was a lot more spontaneous when I was a broke young man than I am now as a fairly comfortable adult. Usually the number of responsibilities you have goes up as your income does, and those are the killers of spontaneity.
More like your income goes up as the number of responsibilities goes up.
Maybe it’s also the fact that you’re older and more mature?
What if you had a stream of income in your youth from family supporting you?
Generational wealth.
I definitely would’ve been more spontaneous instead of work two jobs while going to college in my early 20s.
Reminds me of that 20th century philosopher, C.G.L. Wallace, who quipped “mo money, mo problems”
Yeah, this makes sense. Think the thought still holds though. Just needs to be explained with the normal distribution meme.
To get your final spontaneity ability score, you have to multiply base spontaneity by a factor of
1 –––––––––––– 1 + 1000 * k
where
k
is the number of kids you have.I’m having a really hard time refuting this equation. It appears to work out even for negative and non-integer values of k
Okay but how would one have negative amount of kids??
Kill someone else’s kid.
Murder. It’s how many kids you’ve murdered. Therefore you will be in prison and have negative spontaneity.
Ah yeah, as a DINK, this is a great formula
If your bank account gets low enough, spontaneity goes back up.
That seems impossible to measure, and being too spontaneous can be bad financially like quitting job after job.
My bank account seems to be pretty big. No matter how much money I throw in there, I never seem to run out of space. As far as I’m concerned, it’s infinite.
I guess, eventually there will be some sort of limitation and the bank gives you a call to tell you that this is a personal account not meant for managing the cash flow of an entire country. Until then, we’re all good, and I’m going to think my account is infinite.
$250,000 is the FDIC limit for insurance.
Aah, so that’s what’s holding back my spontaneous adventures. I need to upgrade to a bigger account. My 35 cents need some room to breathe.
Plot twist, the country of Brazil is using Wells Fargo
I find this to be true.
Spontaneously combust?
That’s why they sometimes in case things in cement
It would seem to be a nonlinear relationship with many other variables to me.
The ability to be spontaneous is directly related to your
Work/Life balance
It’s almost as though you could stand up and fight for that, I dunno
Time also plays a part.
When I was staying at home with my kids and poor as fuck, 4 people living on $15k, if there was gas in the car I could just take us spontaneously to the park, and my city has free music performances on some Thursday nights, if I have free time I can just make a last minute decision and go.
So now I have a good husband who earns $ and a good job, not rich but certainly more affluent than at any time in my life, but I am much less rich in time. Job takes a lot of it, more responsibility overall and less flexibility.
I don’t think spontaneity scales with money, it scales with free time once you have enough money. And that “enough” is not a lot.
I spontaneously go to work because I need a salary.
