I used to say why save money if I'll die tomorrow, I haven’t died yet and I have nothing to survive on

About This Quote

When people are faced with certain death, they often find the idea of saving money to be quite strange. This is because death can come at any time, so why save money? This quote captures this notion. People are so focused on being alive that they forget about their lives after death. They focus on what they have to live for today, not what they will have to live for tomorrow.
