Tell that to unemployed people. To children. To retired people. To people with serious sickness.
Time is not money.
- dartos 3y agoIt isn’t, but it has similar uses. With more money you have more time. not needing to wait in line at a check cashing or payday loan office, not needing to wait in the ER because you can’t afford primary care, not needing to get your car fixed every year because you can afford one with fewer miles. There’s a lot of hidden time costs if you’re not well off.
- magicpin 3y agoHell just the time sink of using a laundromat with defective machines vs filling up your own machine and moving over loads when it’s convenient for you
- dartos 3y agoWow yes exactly this. Didn’t even think about laundromats
- goodpoint 3y ago> There’s a lot of hidden time costs if you’re not well off. Of course and that's my point.
