Comment on Planito: A 9-day week for a balanced life

Comments

Putting in 6 days to get 3 is a -50% ROI, not much better than -60% ROI of the five-day work week.

I propose Profito: A 3-day week for a profitable life. For every 3 days you work, you get 4 days free.

How do you calculate the ROI?

In many competitive professions, your outcomes are based on your rank, or it is winner take most after a cutoff.

So sometimes being 1 percent better gives 1000x rewards.

Only if that moves you into that last 1%.

In a dynamic economy, one can never guarantee whether you will get into the last 1%.
