Food for thought…how rich we could really be!

If you had a bank that credited your account each morning with $86,400, that carried over no balance from day to day, allowed you to keep no cash in your account, and every evening canceled whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day, what would you do? Draw out every cent of course!

Well, you do have such a bank, and its called “time”. Each morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night, it rules off as lost whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purposes. It carries over no balances. It allows no overdrafts. If you fail to use the days deposits, the loss is YOURS.
