I loved this article (linked above)- it made me question a lot of assumptions, and that is probably a good thing!

You’ve probably heard that time is your most precious commodity. But on the balances sheets that define “success” in our society, how often do we measure an abundance of free time?
Traditionally, the time-rich were kids or people without a job. Not exactly who we aspire to be when we grow up!
And what about mobility? Why isn’t the ability to travel and come and go as you please valued as highly as a Mercedes-Benz or a fancy house?
And the mobility-rich are usually college-aged people studying abroad or roaming vagabonds who never really fit into the “real world.”
Of course, we all have responsibilities. And we have to work for money at some point.
But what would your life look like if you measured and prioritized all three currencies equally – time, money, and mobility?
