When I see them, I tighten loose screws, and fix things, even if they aren't mine. I try to help others, as best I can. I try to leave things better than I found them.

All we have to do is leave things 1% better than we found them, and the world gets better continuously.

1% might not be enough, due to entropy fighting against us all the time.

I would argue the best way to do things that will surpass your life is to have kids, love them and teach and train them in what is good and true and right and with all of the knowledge and wisdom you have, and then see them surpass you.

I think you need to be in a significiantly good place to wait for your children to surpass you. In a place to have the right to delegate your responsibility to do something that surpasses your life.

“Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see”

- Neil Postman

Or embrace the ephemereal nature of life and find meaning, joy and beauty in your experience of the here and now.

An adjacent philosophy to “leave the world a better place than when you entered it”. You won’t care what you left behind, but those who are still around might (if you’re lucky, for either kind of luck).

As you demand, eager to serve, sir.

But what's it worth to you?

Preferably in real estate, gold, stocks, bonds or bitcoins. If need be, I'll also take cash.

No NFT's though, sorry.
