1. Rich and Poor Work Similar Hours
The top 1% only work 3.4 hours more per week than the bottom 1%
My assumption is leverage, education, environment and type of work are bigger factors than raw hours alone.

1. Walking to be at a certain place at a certain time (100% utility)

He became obsessed with Toy Trains.
