As we look forward to another weekend, we have a question for you. Actually, a series of them. But the first question is…
Are you rich?
We’ll come back to that one. Before you answer, ask yourself:
Assuming you can see, what is your sight worth?
Take a minute and think about all the things you see in a day.
Nature in all its beauty.
A work of art. A photo.
The joy you see reflected on the face of a close friend or family member.
If you can hear, what value do you place on that ability?
Music.
Birds.
The voice of a loved one.
Even silence.
What about your sense of smell? Is it worth anything?
Flowers as you pass by them.
Food as it cooks.
You can often even smell danger, which triggers your survival instinct.
How about your taste?
You know what sweet means. And sour.
Spicy has meaning for you.
You know when something has no taste. Or tastes bad.
What would you trade for your experiences?
Think about how much you’ve grown over time.
For just a few seconds, think about a low time and how much you learned.
Remind yourself of your highest highs.
How much would you take to give up the people in your life?
If you’re married, your spouse. If you’re attached, your significant other.
What about your children, if you have them?
How about your parents?
Even if they have passed, what are the memories of them worth?
What would you exchange for all of this?
Are they worth $10,000? $100,000? $1,000,000? Much, much more?
So we return to our original question:
Are you rich?
