Mark Evans DM emphasizes that time is more valuable than money, noting that lost time cannot be regained and energy declines with age. He contrasts past inability to disconnect from phones with current extended periods of unplugging (e.g., multi-day trips without reception) and values experiences and permission-based opportunities over accumulating 'crazy stuff.'

Time is the only thing that when it's gone, it's gone. Money will come and go. If you don't get it now, when do you get it? I'm not getting any more energy. I get less energy every day the older I get. Maybe I'm 90. I hope I live 150. But healthy 150. We want to buy time. I don't know if you guys have ever got to experience go to Bora Bora for seven days. When Sean and I were actually just hanging out at the lake, we had no cell phone, Internet reception or anything. We just chilled for five days. Mark Evans 15 years ago could have never done that. I couldn't leave the phone away for five seconds, let alone five minutes. And now I'm doing it in months at a time. And I love, but I also love living. I don't need all this crazy stuff. I want it. And a lot of people will judge this stuff when you're as you're on the up. They don't know what we're doing behind the scenes and hustling and grinding. But with the permission based opportunities in your world, whatever you want is there. I get excited about it because I know what's available.
