Are You Inadvertently Working For Free?

The anti-success story we never get told

Bill Perkins has a unique take on life. His aim is not to make as much money as possible and hoard it (which is what most people are doing whether they admit it or not).

He suggests we use money to fund experiences, create memories and “die with zero”. It doesn’t mean giving nothing to the next generation (just give it when they need it, not when you die).

You may be working for free without realising. If you constantly work and save, but you run out of time or health to use that money to enrich your life or others, than effectively you worked some of those years for nothing. Crazy.

I love it when someone questions “what the world thinks” and when someone puts something other than money at the centre of their life.
