A Magic Bank Account - One you may not know you have!

The Magic Bank Account

Imagine that you had won the following *PRIZE* in a contest: 

Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400 in your private account for your use.  However, this prize has rules: 

1. Everything that you don’t spend during each day
would be taken away from you.

2. You may not simply transfer money into some other
account.
3. You may only spend it.
4. Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400 for that day.
5. The bank can end the game without warning; at any time by just saying “Game Over!". It can close the account and you will not receive a new one.

What would you personally do? 

My guess is that you would buy anything and everything you wantedright? Not only for yourself, but for all the people you love and care for. Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all on yourself, right? You would try to spend every penny, and use it all, because you knew it would be replenished in the morning, right?

*ACTUALLY, This GAME is REAL ... YES, each of us is already a winner of this *PRIZE*.  We just can't seem to see it!


The PRIZE is *TIME*
1. Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a
gift of life.
3. What we haven't used up that day is forever lost.
4. Yesterday is gone.
5. Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve your account at any time WITHOUT WARNING...

SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds today?

Allegedly this was found in Bear Bryant’s papers when he died.  Whether it was or was not found there is irrelevant.  This is great story!  Enjoy!  - Marc
