When folk call and indicate that the previous post was superb then it is worth bringing the plan forward a few days.
I also came across another blog which will provide a rich vein of material for the future, http://www.fitforrandomness.wordpress.com take a look and let me know your thoughts – I guess the speculation shown could be exciting.
Meanwhile, back at the ‘worldometers’ data, if you thought the last figures were considerable for the month of January, then the figures for only half a day will blow your socks off –
Healthcare spend today around the world is 5,540,917,211. That must include jobs for all levels of healthcare specialists, doctors, surgeons, opticians, dentists, nurses, radiographers, etc. Also all the related equipment for surgery, management, data analysis, auditing, MRI scanners, beds, chairs, desks, etc.
The opportunities for development and indeed for making savings – are outstanding, the opportunity to extend product life by recycling refurbished equipment for use in other situations and innovative products may never be realised – unless someone takes time to explore this – are you one of the ‘new breed’ of innovators? If you would like to explore this avenue – drop me a line [ jimmy@positiveattitude.me ]
So far, the spend today is a staggering $4,339,019,617 around the world, that means for a full day it could be $10b and over the course of a year would exceed $3,650b – the education projects I’m working on developing voluntarily in my spare time, wouldn’t even make a minimum dent in that amount, hahaha – can I suggest that some education authority person give me a call, I could save you billions.
The military spend so far today is a mere $2,405,184,558 – this area was where I spent my early years doing R&D and I know that the tremendous engineering related opportunities spread into so many consumer products, we have got to spend time on some lateral thinking on the other uses of military equipment, even when damaged or at the end of use. Yet again, I have some great project ideas which could become collaborative education experiences across cultures, countries, etc.
Cars made since 1/1/11 – 5,216,686; bicycles made since 1/1/11 – 10,952,664; computers sold since 1/1/11 – 28,768,216… who actually thinks that there are no engineering jobs out there? The job opportunites are endless, the development opportunities are stunning, if you are needing help to find work, let me know – I’m sure we could come up with a broad range of options for consideration.
