Easy Earned Easy Spent

Easy Earned Easy Spent

Our relationship with money is similar to our relationship with humans.

We don’t hesitate to splurge when the money is earned through a lottery ticket, just as we often take someone for granted who continues to love us unconditionally.

We are thrifty with our hard-earned cash just as we cherish someone whom we struggle to receive love from.

The effort to earn money does not change the value of money, even if we choose to treat them differently.
