Recalculating Opportunity Cost

90% of what we do on a regular basis (functioning in the regular economy) used to be linked to reality, we would earn money that could be spent, used, and benefited by.

However, that reality changed when the unreal economy exploded into a 650 trillion different parts. We’re untethered from reality by operating in a system that, to some degree, was grounded in that clusterfuck.

It’s time to rethink opportunity cost. You aren’t giving up a chance to work in the economy if you’re at home instead, building a farm in your .75 acre backyard. You’re operating in the most basic level of the real economy – one that may be all we have left. Most of what you spend your time doing is akin to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
