R U saying the* "action", in and of itself, constitutes wealth and not the "accumulation" ?* In physics, we are not interested in how much energy there is in the universe at any instant because it's always zero, but we are interested in the change in the energy of the state of the universe, because it's never zero. Icahn's pile of money has no value to him. He lives on $500k/month. He made several $billion last year. He doesn't care about whether the pile is $13B or $11B. He only cares about what right action he performed. By right action is meant that 11 --> 13, wrong is 13 --> 11. It could be $13. I know all about it. How much effort does the shepherd apply if there's but one lost sheep? A painter gains wealth* from the act of painting and not from his finished product.* True. The finished product becomes a kind of curse since it represents the best one could do previously. It helps to be around for seven decades to understand let alone accept this point of view. Hear, here. Too soon old and too late smart. Capt Picard when asked by a person from the 20th century who was obsessed with money and who had been revived from cryopreservation, if money is meaningless in the 23rd century, what's the purpose, replied, the purpose is to see what you can become.
