    Sometimes referred to as the Ten Commandments for the Idle, these counterproposals have been widely reproduced on the Web in a shortened form:<snip>.
    Interesting but where's the "out" ?

    These 10 points just result in you working forever in a low level demotivating dead-end job for someone else until you die.

    Or maybe I'm missing the point?

    Though to be fair I have followed many of the 10 steps myself over the past 15 years. The difference is that I created time whilst still in my daily grind. Time that I then used to create residual income and to spend with family, with people that really matter.

    If I didn't have kids (those pesky kids...) then I would use that income and time to travel and meet new people in far away places. I still have that dream sometimes. Freedom, it's still a wonderful thought.

            Very difficult for kids to get their independence these days.

              That depends on when the parents stop overindulging them IMO
