Your Life in Weeks (Wait But Why)

An interesting post on waitbutwhy.com that you might enjoy. For those taking rapamycin, we’re going to need a bigger calendar :wink:

If you multiply the volume of a .05 carat diamond by the number of weeks in 90 years (4,680), it adds up to just under a tablespoon.

Spoonful of Diamonds

Looking at this spoon of diamonds, there’s one very clear question to ask: “Are you making the most of your weeks?”

That looks like a surprisingly small amount of weeks. I also think some people experience time waay faster than others (and vice versa). It might be a good idea as a longevity intervention to figure out how to experience time more slowly.

That purple volume is rather optimistic.

I just discovered this product that converts the Wait but Why “life in weeks” poster into your own wall hanging (just in case you’re not motivated enough to pursue healthy longevity on a daily basis)…

The challenge is do you order the “100 year” version, or the 125 year version? or should we be requesting a special “Rapamycin User” version with 150 years on it. :wink:
