“I think that much of the advice given to young men about saving money is wrong. I never saved a cent until I was forty years old. I invested in myself - in study, in mastering my tools, in preparation. Many a man who is putting a few dollars a week into the bank would do much better to put it into himself” - Henry Ford have been thinking about this quote a lot there is the financial interpretation of this quote: "i should spend $100 more on a apartment that will make me work 10% better" "I should get better clothes that make me feel 20% better about myself, which will make me work 15% better" but also the philosophical interpretation "if i get good grades in school i will get a good job" "if i get a good job i will save money" "if i can save money I can do xyz thing" this promotes a culture of living to work, instead of working to live, which leads us to where we are socially as a world today 🤷♂️ (although, you should 100% love what you do)
