"Time=Money" ...... what bullshit
WHICH idiot thinks he can get away with a line like that.
You, more often than you like it, hear people, (!grown-ups!) tell ya all self-blievingly that "TIME IS MONEY"... like it's one of the ten commandments carved in stone or something.
I say that chap's either deprived of plain sight at birth to spot a fallacy, or the joker's trying to pull shit over yer eyes.
Otherwise, his address probably reads : Credit Street #$10-000, money world. anyway
Will ya please stop debasing the sanctity of our mortal minutes with a pet phrase like that.
How is money like time? Its not inexorable, its certainly not invisible, it's mutable, and when you lose it there is always a way to earn it back. And how's time like money? Have you seen time and does it look like a stinking stack of dollar bills to you.
The only (sad) piece of supporting evidence that i can think of to maintain the unlikely resemblence of the two, is one occasional realization of each and every wage earner, looking up from his or her desk in the dopey office at mid-day, thinking of how they're selling their life at an hourly rate of $16.57.
Actually I'm begining to think, time spent NOT in pursuit of money is time well spent.
Next time a stiff-tie-choking-collar executive walks past me in Shenton Way I wanna wish fer him to take a fall down the stairs and then be thankful to be spending the next couple of weeks in some quiet moments at the hospital. And while he's there, enjoy the flowers.
