Today is a good day to start if you can follow this story.

By Ernest Ukpovum

In 2001, after the 9/11 Osama Bin Ladin terrorist attack at the World Trade Centre that brought America to its kneels with more than (3,000) thousand victims dead.

The American Government decided to set up Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) to compensate victims of the attack (or their families)

A man called Kenneth Feinberg was appointed to be the special master of the fund, so he came up with a formula to disburse the fund to families of the victims.

According to Feinberg, every victim can only be worth more or less based on how much money he/she was able to make per month as salary and basic annual income.

Hence Feinberg was responsible for making the decisions on how much each family of a victim would receive, he could only calculate the worth of each victim using their own lifetime estimated earnings.

Was this formula wrong? could every victims life be worth the same? should your value be measured by your status in society and your contribution to society through your philanthropist work?

Whatever you might have been while alive, didn’t matter in this case, the only thing that mattered was how much you were making when you were alive.

This topic of discourse has been thrown in court million of times in many variable instances and the answer goes back to the same formula.

How much money you make now can be use to estimate your entire lifetime value.

Yes, this is why I decide to remind you here that if you have skills and can not use it to scale your life value and worth by earning more,  then you have been shortchanged by life itself

Your life is less or more accordingly based on how you apply yourself and attract more earning in life.

If you have read this far and decide to stop reading this text, take this advice-

If you do not create a higher formula to be used when calculating your life value maybe at an interview for a job offer, a contract or a lifetime opportunity, a special master will be there to do it for you.

Bottom line is that if you are not the master of your life, someone else will control your life and how much you are worth.

Lot of us are under this line called bottom lines, 90% of the human race is in this life bracket where we are constantly being valued by others base on their assessment of our income, social status, educational profile, professional portfolio, etc.

These factors has ruled out every possibility to assume that a man is worth more or less base on anything other than money.

Feinberg had to estimate how much each victim would have earned in a full lifetime, to do so he had to first of all, collect the data of every victims jobs.

After he has collected all the data of every victims annual income he was able to determine how much each victim was worth throughout their lifetime.

At first, most families refuse to accept the figure as estimated by Feinberg and his team because every victim was offered compensation based on their lifetime estimated in come.

For example if you were a doctors you were been offered more than a genitor if you work at wall street your family would be offered more than the guy on conner office.

There was an outrage after this formula was announced because people felt every human life was supposed to be worth equally but at the same time, this formula became and benchmark for lifetime pursued for more

The obvious truth in reality is that- every human life is not worth the same by the equilibrium of how much money you make and what you do as a career.

You may not understand the message in this article because it took me nearly 15 years to understand too.

To simplify the message for your understanding, i would say- the amount of money you make in your lifetime determines how much you are worth in value.

Your line of job will form the basic formula to calculate your entire human worth, the level of respect you receive and the accolade you get from people and society is also measure by the same parenthesis.

However, my overall point in this article is to remind you that if you want more from life and society, you have to scale up your worth by doing something that will earn you a significant life worth.

MORE is a dynamic human nature, every day, the human mind is driven to desire more, our entire cost of life is measured by our hunger for more.

Thus- my theory as formed, that the only way to get more out of life is to give more, you have to work more hours to earn more money.

Although it is often not the same for every person a very small umber of the human race have attain the level of doing nothing and earning more.

The percentage of very unlucky human under the work more th earn more out of life is drastically too high for you to jump in a bit.

But i will advice to you keep the jump, just maybe you may land in the other side one day.

Around you and your entire life existence, your work and earning is gratified by nothing more-than more and that is the only goal of the human mind.

Every human who has come of age is aware of the resolution reached even before you were born as a bargain that you life is a story and every story has an end.

The end of story factor called death is not as scary as it sounds, hence we are hail heaver to grab as much as we can before it comes.

If you live in the neighbourhood of “there is more to life” then, you should by now figure out that those with more still want more and those with less want more, every one is on the queue at deferent levels to earn more.

Today is the best day to start earning more if you want your life value to worth more, end of story.
