Rich people know this.
If you would care to embrace this, you too may be rich.
"Rich people know this."
A long time ago a teacher taught me a valuable lesson about money and what it is.
He explained to really find the value of something place you and the item on a deserted island with the idea you will never leave that island nor will anyone ever come to that island, in other words totally cut off from the world.
Now what will One million Dollars do for you, or stacks of gold bars worth a million?
Other than making good fire starters out of the cash or stacking the gold bars up for shelter, not a damn thing.
The above example illustrates the point that its not Money we all want, rather it is what money gets us.
He went on to explain the same about a shovel. No one wants a shovel really, what they want is a hole, the shovel gets you the hole when put into the right context, (Shovel+capable digger+proper ground=hole)
Shovels are tools and so is money. But too many people think money is the object of the exercise and so on pay day they spend the money.
When they should put that "tool" to work for themselves.
