I looked at my rates. At 17 breaths a minute, I would make $1,224 per day. At around 7725 steps per day, I would make $1,931 per day. I have to go back years to find a month that averaged a step income below my breath income. Hands down (or feet down), I’d choose making money through steps. I would be making over $700k a year. The added benefit is that I can also increase my step count per day and it would make me healthier. Increasing my breath rate generally wouldn’t.

I had a small leg injury before Xmas, so I averaged 1-2k steps per day for a few weeks. Given this choice I would not want to risk losing my income due to an accident, so I would choose money for breathing, meaning I get payed as long as I’m alive. Also, not like you cannot make a good living with ~1k per day.

Same here. Also, if you exert yourself in any way, your breathing quickens. It's bonus pay for exercise. A win-win either way.

That was a thought that went through my head. In reality, as long as I was able to walk for a few years, I could invest that money and make passive income with the 4% rule. Assuming I could walk just a few years longer, I could retire very early. But yes, theoretically I’ll be breathing longer than I’m walking. And breathing income is safer in that way.

The more you walk or run, the more breaths you make. What's your pulse/breath while walking? What about "any other form of activity" that could introduce sweat? Skimming, cycling, skiing, fucking.. hell even hopping wood and lifting weights make you breathe faster if you strain yourself.

I'll be take breaths

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You're not taking 5+ breaths per step even when running, and as your cardiovascular health increases you take fewer breaths.

[–] The_Lopen 5 points 6 months ago

That's the kicker. You work out to breathe harder and faster, but as you work out, your heart gets more efficient, meaning at least you exert yourself slower, requiring more work to get the same heavy breathing.

walking doesn't increase your breath count, maybe by 1 or 2 per minute, so it's rather insignifacnt, if it does more then you really, really need to walk more and get into better shape.

I’m in the same situation, but you also have to consider that your situation may change. I for one after getting money like this would probably quit my job and just stay at home and in general walk less.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Good point. To me it would be the opposite though. I would travel way more if I didn’t work.
