30 kilograms of this fucking rock is worth more than the entirety of your life's work. Think about that for a second. Every action you will ever do, every choice you make, the total value generated by you throughout your long and arduous life, it will be exceeded by 30 kilograms of a fucking rock. All the shiny pieces of metal in this image are both more than your entire existence - probably both of ours, to be honest.

Anons, uhm, how do we cope with this? Because it kinda makes me depressed....

Human life has constantly been grown and replenished as long as we're on the planet. The amount of gold has barely ever changed, with natural formation of it during a lifetime being incredibly small.
Dont be upset that its value is greater than your lifetime of output, appreciate its infallibility and purity. The same gold will continue to exist long after your bones have rotted to dust.

You can make the same reasoning on a lot of things. Banknotes are just pieces of paper, the monalisa is just paint on wood...
If anything it shows that money isn't that important in life, ask a senile billionaire how much he would pay to become a 20yo again, or to have a wife that actually loves him, and you'll see a very different perspective.

That's the beauty of this world: It's absurd! There's no such thing as profits anymore. It's all about survival. You need food, water, shelter, etc. to survive. Anything beyond that is superfluous. And the sad truth is: most of humanity doesn't know this and therefore can't understand reality anymore. They cling to their meaningless abstractions. Some may call these delusions but who knows what goes on inside someone's mind.

>The fuck is "median and mean wealth"?
Median means that 50% of people are below the number and 50% are above. Mean is just the average, which super rich people can skew higher.

Like if you have a list of the wealth of each person in a country that only has 11 people:

Person 1. $10
Person 2. $300
Person 3. $4,000
Person 4. $26,000
Person 5. $90,000
Person 6. $120,000 (Middle)
Person 7. $160,000
Person 8. $ 250,000
Person 9. $500,000
Person 10.$2,000,000
Person 11. $100,000,000,000 (Elon Musk)

The median wealth is $120,000 (The middle)
The mean wealth is $9,091,195,482 (The average of all the numbers)

So the median wealth is more representative of the wealth of a person in that country.

For every nice, deep breath, you breath in about 6 litres of air. At any one point (assuming you’re living and breathing) you’ll be having:

6/22.4=0.268 moles of air inside your body

Since the Avogadro constant (symbol NA)is 6.022e23[1] (or 6.022*10^23), the total amount of “air atoms” (because atmospheric air is a mixture of a lot of stuffs) currently residing in your body is NA*0.268= 1.61e23 (atoms)

The average rate of breathing is one breath every five seconds, or to translate to yearly:

1 (breath) * 12 (blocks of five seconds per minute) * 60 (minutes per hour) * 24 (hours per day) * 365 (days per year) = 6,307,200 breaths per year

Now, our dear Chancellor lived a tumultuous 56 years[2]. In those 56 years he’d have breathed 6,307,200*56=353,203,200 breaths, or 3.53e8 breaths. Multiply that with the amount of atom in one breath, we have 3.55e8*1.61e23=5.68e31.

The molar weight (or weight per mole) of air is 28.866g[3], and since there is approximately 5.15e21g[4] of air in our atmosphere, the mole number of our atmosphere is 5.15e21/28.866=1.78e20 (mols)

Therefore, in our atmosphere there is 1.78e20*NA=1.07e44 (air atoms)

Now, divide the amount of air atoms Hitler breathed in his lifetime with the amount of air atoms in the atmosphere times 100 we have the concentration of Hitler-breathed-air (or Hitlaircentration) of 1.78e20/1.07e44*100=1.66e-22 (%)

Take the inverse of the concentration, you’ll find that for every 6e21 air molecules you breath in, you’ll breath in one atom of Hitler’s air. Take in account of the massive number of atoms you breath in at any one time you get

5.68e31*1.66e-22=9,428,800,000 (Hitler molecules)

Granted, not all 9,428,800,000 Hitler-lecules are inside of you right now - let’s say only 0.001% of Hitler-lecules are actually inside of you, waiting to be turned into useful things for your body. That leaves a staggering 9,428,800 Hitler-lecules inside of you, and that’s just from air alone.
