True Wealth : The Freedom of Time Over Money

Aspire Compass – Edition #4 

Hey there,  

Welcome to Edition #4 of Aspire Compass! 

As you all know, we’re continuing our deep dive into The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, breaking down each lesson in detail. Today is Day #4, and we’ll explore a fundamental concept from the book.

★ Controlling Your Time Is the Biggest Wealth of All 

Let’s Discuss This Lesson 

Morgan Housel highlights that the greatest intrinsic value of money is its ability to give you control over your time. Many people misunderstand the real purpose of earning money. Ask yourself: What are you really earning money for? 

If you're making money just for the sake of it—or to impress others—you might find yourself stuck on a never-ending treadmill. There’s no finish line where someone will say, “You’ve made enough. You look successful.” There will always be another person to outdo, leading to an endless cycle of striving for more.  

But if you earn money with the true intention of buying back your time, that, in my opinion, is the real value of wealth. Once you reach a point where you no longer have to trade your time for money, you gain the freedom to spend it on what truly matters—your passions, personal projects, or even your work, but on your terms.  

At this stage, you’re not working for money; you’re working because you want to. And that is the greatest use of money.  

This lesson has deeply resonated with my own experiences, and I hope it inspires you to rethink your approach to wealth.
