Problem: Why should I get out of bed?
Answer: Because I need to work to support the people I care about. This includes your own time (to spend with them), food, housing, simple luxuries and top-notch healthcare. I personally need between two and five crores in today's money in the bank for this. (INR Five crores == USD ~1 million).
Problem: Ok, you've made that much money. Now why should you get out of bed?
Answer: Well, now it's just your own fulfillment. Boredom is the enemy. Why think small? Cure death. Produce unlimited energy.
Problem: But this takes resources.
Answer: Yes it does - specifically, qualified, skilled and passionate people that you can work easily with (and are your friends, with any luck) and lots of money. It's not an original idea - people like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are already at this stage.
