Time is such a valuable resource that we should avoid wasting it at all costs. According to our guest Orlando Spado, his time in prison taught him how important time is, and we should do everything in our power to protect it.
If you plan on doing something illegal that can land you in prison, you'd better stop it because the time you'll waste in prison will be a great loss.
Very soon, we'll have Orlando's life story documented into a movie. Wouldn't that be lovely?
