Where is the richest or wealthiest place on Earth? Is it New York City or graveyard?

New York City (NYC) is the wealthiest city on earth because more wealthy people live in The City than any other city on the planet. But the richest place on Earth is arguably the graveyard. The reason for this is not far-fetched, the graveyard is filled with books that were never written, songs that were never sung, dreams that never became reality, movies that were never acted and a lot talents.

Les Brown, an American politician and motivational speaker said that:

"The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream."

Myle Munroe also said that:

“The wealthiest place in the world is not the gold mines of South America or the oil fields of Iraq or Iran. They are not the diamond mines of South Africa or the banks of the world. The wealthiest place on the planet is just down the road. It is the cemetery. There lie buried companies that were never started, inventions that were never made, bestselling books that were never written, and masterpieces that were never painted. In the cemetery is buried the greatest treasure of untapped potential.” 

What is life all about? This question determines the quality of our life. Each day is a mini-life, and each day gradually becomes our life. We only have one life to live and we need to make the most out of the years will live. 

Life has been given to mankind as a gift, and it is too precious to waste. Maximize all your potential. Let the world see the best version of you. Let the grave receive nothing else other than your empty body.
