Money is a tool for building the life you want, not the goal itself. The speaker argues that fulfillment comes from balancing three things: wealth, health, and time. Focus on what you actually want to do, and use money to make it possible.
The money wasn't the goal. The life was the goal. The fulfillment was the goal. Money was the tool. Yes. Money is it's like hammers and saws, right? Like you can keep buying hammers and saws, you can go to the hardware store, but the hardware store, the tools that you get out of there, that's not the goal. The goal is the house and the things you build, right? And so money is the tool to build your life. And so once I started to think about that, that I wanted to have an adventurous life, a life with scars, a life with mistakes, a life with risks, you know, money had its place, right, in building the life that I wanted. I've had many journeys about what will fulfill me and what the money's for, but ultimately it's just one variable out of what I would call the three variables, your wealth, your health, and your time. Like how do I allocate those resources, right, over my life to get the most fulfilling life? And so I think a lot of people look at money as the goal, and it's not even close to the goal. The goal is a fulfilling life.
