It depends on what youre doing. If youre enjoying life, then it can be worth it. If youre not, its not.
I just flew from Australia to Europe to see family. I do it every few years. It costs 24 hours of travel each way. Not to mention lost days due to jet lag. Sure, I'm alive in a flying box watching downloaded movies while willing myself to sleep. But its not living. However, the lost time is worth it to see family and experience different cultures.
Who has the better life? The life lived, or the life prolonged?
