Which I value most depends on what's been going on in my life. But I think generally comfort.

Of course you know my answer would be information followed by time. Good information empowers me to make good decisions so I avoid feeling like a victim. If I'm acting in ways that cause other discomfort I can adjust my behavior. If others are acting in ways that cause me discomfort, knowing why will diffuse my anger or frustration. A breakdown in communication/lack of information will cause me to feel emotionally and physically ill.

Time is a very close second to me. Time lost can never be recovered so I feel it's the most valuable gift I can share with another person. If someone doesn't have respect for my time I find it disrespectful. Waiting for someone who is late makes me feel ill.

Comfort is nice but it's a distant third. The other two don't really register for me except for having enough money to survive on.

Since I couldn't find a more in-depth description of the values mentioned or your source, I find it hard to compartmentalize.

So. I value Information a lot, because knowledge is Power. I place much value on direct control, but also for instant adaptability to circumstances out of my control. I crave Comfort, but that is primarily brought about with enough Time to let things happen in their natural course. Too many Assets are a burden to me, although I wish for a house within inner bypass limits, which is unobtainable if you don't have $700.000. Which I don't.

A week ago I would have said I was a
TICAS.

However, I was pondering it anew a couple days ago, with my parents, and determined that I would LIKE to be a TICAS or ITCAS, but am, in fact, a TISCA or ITSCA.

The good opinion of people ends up weighing very heavily with me in many ways, and, if I was going to be honest, I often trade my Comfort or Asset coin in an effort to retain my Status coin.
