Average day in percentages
37% Sleep
33% Working
10% Free time
8% Cooking / Eating
4% Driving
4% Working Out
4% Personal Hygiene
Ok I fudged the numbers a little to make it add up to 100% but this is pretty accurate. I guess I spend a lot of time sleeping. I think its worth it you feel a lot better during the day. I'm suprised Eating takes up 8% of my day. Thats two hours. I even factored grocery shopping into my free time. Boy, if I could go without food I could almost double my free time.

How much do jobs really stimulate the economy
We've seen over the last year a huge push to create jobs, but does this benefit the economy as much as one might think? Busy workers are busy doing just that - working, not spending. From my perspective, I spend very little nowadays just because of work. When I'm not working, it doesn't take much to satisfy me. Sure I might have some money from working, but why spend it? I'm perfectly content sitting at home and reading a book from library, playing a video game or watching a movie. Why am I content? Because I'm not working. If I had more time to pursue other interests, no doubt my spending would increase. As employees our time is being stretched thin and technology is helping us get more entertainment out of less money. I'd love to take up sailing or mountain climbing, maybe even scuba diving. Honestly I just don't have the time. So I'll continue saving my money and putting it towards my house.
