The Value of Money
What is the value of money in your life?
Its a hard question to answer, especially if you haven’t reflected upon deeply about it. Off the top of your held you are bound to give a politically correct answer. That money is only a means to a better, more comfortable lives.
But if examine deeply, we often find that initially what seemed just a means to a better life often becomes an ever moving goal post. We get stuck in the loop of wanting more and more things in life in the name of convenience and comfort.
As the classic line from Fight Club goes —
“The things we own, end up owning us”
We become the slaves to our wants.
If there’s anything this pandemic has taught us all, its that we have the ability to live with far fewer resources in life. And I hope that by the time we come out of it, everyone of us will have a renewed healthy relationship with money.
Mark Manson in this article speaks about the value of money. How many of us let ourselves be defined by it, and how the real value of money lies somewhere else completely.
