Budgets Are Sexy

Happy Labor Day everyone!!! Just got back from my 8-day road trip, and thought I’d pass along something before you get out there and spend some quality time with your loved ones :) I’ll be doing the same in the spirit of non-laboring. See ya’ll back here tomorrow – hope everyone’s well!

As read on The Good Life:

“Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course? Each of us has such a bank. Its name is time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to a good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day’s deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against “tomorrow.” You must live in the present on today’s deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success. The clock is running. Make the most of today.”

This is more about *time* than money, don’t go spending all of your savings! Haha… (and thanks for the heads up on this guy, Jenny Blake. You’re right, love the site :))
