Do You Value Money - Contextually?
Most were taught:
More money = Better Life
But in the wrong context,
more and more just feeds:
Spending more.
Keeping up with what ‘more’ requires.
Heightened risk of self-compromise.
Subscriptions, more screen-time.
Worries about loss, numbing.
Less time.
Money is necessary,
yet once past a point,
the quantity loses value as a dimension.
Why do you want money to begin with?
To live?
Once looking into why you want to live, one thing gets clear:
Money is a means to an end.
Rule-of-thumb: A leaky system, increases the weight of every coin.
When you derive capital, what happens to it in the first day?
Imagine your main income was paused for 30 days.
What costs would grow instead of decrease?
Consider if an expense could turn into an asset.
Like time you spent on the screen, reading this.
Check what you pay for an expense.
Take transportation as an example:
Food? Hours? Past efforts? Incompatibility? Disconnect?
Rate how that works for the context of your life, 1-5.
