You Get What You Pay For

Capital can be your foundation or your downfall.

Everybody loves a deal. The idea of getting something for less than advertised is enough to please anyone. It gives you the thing you desire and leaves a few dollars in your pocket. But beware of the hidden costs.

But, not all products and services are created equal. Some offerings may provide no intrinsic value except that emotional feeling you get when you complete the transaction. There are a great number of things that have no utility whatsover. Knicknacks, trinkets, souvenirs are often purchased just to remember a time, place or event. These things accumulate over time, collect dust, get put in drawers after a new tchotchke takes its place. Ultimately, it’s a lot of clutter resulting in diminishing returns and create drag.

How are you spending your time? It’s your most finite resource. We all get the same 24 hours per day, but the number of days is an unknown variable that’s solution is definite and final. The value of your time is directly related to the choices you make and the actions you take. Are you spending it mindlessly consuming food, drink, Netflix, reels and Tik-Toks? Wasting valuable time on things that don’t improve your skills, abilities and opportunities can have a negative effect on your potential.

Whether it’s time or money, spend it wisely. Quality time renders quality returns that invests in your future. Spending money on tools, training and services to improve your capabilities and ability to earn is a worthwhile investment.

Learning and Earning at a constant rate yields exponential results.
