About This Quote
For some people, the secret to happiness is not in what you have, but in what you do with what you have. As you get older, everything becomes more meaningful. It’s not so much about how much money you have, but the happiness that comes from using it how it should be used. You put money in a bank or leave it in a brokerage account so that someone else can invest it for you.
The same is true with your time. While your twenties are often filled with big decisions, you can use your time to make life choices that are important to you.
