Since time really equates to money, then it stands to reason that if you waste time, you’re effectively wasting money. You also need to quantify all the money that you stand to lose when you don’t use your time effectively.

It is important to do something else to make more money, no just the job. It increase possibilities of reach financial freedom and improve your community. It is important to write in a paper what you want to do. Writes demand mental focus. And please eliminate the Lone Ranger Syndrome. The new entrepreneur have to ask help or guidance. Someone is in where you want to be. We teach that in our programs. Thanks for the article. The Blue Leaf Great post. It is important to do something else to make more money, no just the job.

For me, in my opionion since I slack off in college. Now nearing 30, and working 2 jobs it's: Priority List: 1. Money 2. Time Money come 1st so that I can save it for my long-life goals which are: Goal List: 1. Get a MBA degree in my career 2. Buy a house 3. Be financially secure And of course, those goals will consumed most of my time, but what would you do when near retirement you have nothing to retired on?

I started getting serious two years ago about my career and this year (2009) I earned a whopping 35% increase in my salary. Yes, in a "down" economy. Increasing my skills, earning another degree and becoming the "go to" person with the cheerful attitude worked in my favor. Since I'm a single mom of 3, I must say, I needed the income yet we are smart. I tithe, save 13% and we live off a strict budget. No latte factor here. Just a determination to live financially free!

If we work on ourselves and seek opportunities to earn more it is a worthy endeavor. I think we all need to improve ourselves, our skills, and our earning ability.

Instead of using our gross pay. Perhaps using take home pay is more appropriate?

The long road ahead for me and my family is what keeps me wanting more money I guess. I think once I buy a house and pay off the mortgage, I'd be much more comfortable with living :) You’re right.

It perplexes me that people are trying to save $20/month on electricity and freeze to death, when they could just try and make a side income and generate $1,000+ just from an online site for example. The median income for a 28 year old Top 20 MBA grad is $110,000. Guess what these guys are making at 35? Probably at least double if not 3-5X. If people want to make money, why not just do this? So many folks just tell me it costs too much, or it takes too much time. If that's the case, then be happy with your curent income and stop whining! :) FS Would it be fair to say that those who just focus on cost savings just don’t know HOW to go about making more money?

However, when you take a step back and think about it, time is worth WAY more than money-it's actually priceless. In addition to that, I think taking time to THINK about making money is even more valuable because that way, you'll develop better ideas and hopefully find a loophole to make more money rather than just bringing home the 9-5 income.

Priorities do change once you are debt free :) Only cuz I’ve learned that it doesn’t take much money to get along :)
