    A day of breathing at 5 cents per breath is worth about 4000 steps a day at 25 cents per step.

          A healthy adult takes like 10k steps a day so with that you would earn 2.5 as much a day than breathing. So if you walk for 20 years youd get 50 years of worth of money from breathing. Now, you could also easily extend that to 16-20k where youd earn 100 years in those 20 years. So yeah the walking is better. Also thats like saying you get 2500 dollars to walk in the forest every day and thats a sick deal.

            I don’t walk as much as you, but if someone was paying me 25 cents per step I’d probably respond to that incentive by walking way more than 10 miles a day.

              Thats why Id take the steps.

              Get up, walk the dog $500, go to work on my feet all day $1000,finish work 10k run $2500.

              Give me 1 year and Ill be debt free, 2 years and I’m independently wealthy… and in great shape.
