Personal Finance Spotlight
Putting the Person back in personal finance
Time is worth more than money.
Posted by on April 1, 2011
As I sit here in a doctors office, I am reminded of how valuable time is. Not just MY time, but time in general. I’m also painfully aware of how the value of time is subjective.
To me, my time is worth a great deal. To my boss its worth a set amount per hour. To doctors, it is clearly worth little.
I could be somewhere else working on earning money, reading a book, learning a skill or just maybe relaxing with nothing in mind. Instead I am waiting for some Guy to render simple services at an incredible premium.
Which brings me to my point. Your time is prescious
You have a finite amount per day, week, year and life. Don’t waste it thinking about doing something, do it.
If I were to set up a bank account with compounding interest I could lose a fortune by waiting a year to decide to open instead of doing it.
Go do something now.
