Oh, god. I’m going there. Look, you’ve read hundreds of lists like this. I know that. So, I’ma try and do this one a bit different.

Most comprehensive lists like this feature too much to do, that will take up too much of your time, and fly at too many different altitudes to be definitive. That shit’s not workable. You’re not a superhero.

And, by the way, there’s a pandemic out there, a civil rights movement worth focusing on, and an economic depression that’s so low on millibars that’s become a Category-4 economic hurricane. What you’re probably not gonna do is make your first million.

But, what I will do in this here dispatch, is give you the 15 greatest life lessons I’ve ever learned … and I’m going to float those sweet little doves into the wind, where they’ll sail across the boundless, beautiful sea of ones-and-zeroes directly onto your screen of choice, lapping against you like waves against your prefrontal cortex.

Shall we begin? Sure … beats ending, anyway. I’ve cited material where applicable.

Lesson №1: We still haven’t improved upon the Mediterranean diet.
