Unless it’s being used in the context of paying someone else to do something to get oneself some more “time,” I think it’s a pretty ridiculous thing to say and certainly not something of which to be proud.

More and more, I sense that I’m supposed to respect people who put in 12 hour days or something and then can blow through cash or talk about their job/cash all the time. More and more, the thought in my head is “How very sad.” It’s like we’re now supposed to be impressed by how overworked everyone is.

I’m reminded of stuff like this whenever someone dies, young or old. Not once have I wished a loved one had spent less time with me and more on their net worth.

I’ve heard the saying, however I’ve personally never heard anyone say it. I don’t know the “more money then time” folks. LOL.

It means you’ve got it. You’re in. You can delegate the small stuff and enjoy the big stuff.
I guess it’s when your passive income either equals or surpasses your expenses.

It means it’s time to hire a maid service, gardener or other domestic help. Get rid of the things that you can pay someone else to do so you can spend more time doing things that are important to you.

However, that only works if you actually have more money than time and your “hourly rate” is much higher than the people you are hiring. Don’t be irresponsible.

I’ve never heard this before in my life.

What does it mean?
