TIME IS MONEY – It’s All About The Benjamins PH Remix ft. Benjamin Franklin #MoneyMonday

“Remember, that time is money. He that can earn ten shillings a day by his labor, and goes abroad, or sits idle, one half of that day, though he spends but sixpence during his diversion or idleness, ought not to reckon that the only expense; he has really spent, or rather thrown away, five shillings besides. Remember, that money is the prolific, generating nature. Money can beget money, and its offspring can beget more, and so on. Five shillings turned is six, turned again is seven and threepence, and so on, till it becomes a hundred pounds. The more there is of it, the more it produces every turning, so that the profits rise quicker and quicker. He that kills a breeding sow, destroys all her offspring to the thousandth generation. He that murders a crown, destroys all that it might have produced, even scores of pounds.”

– Benjamin Franklin in Advice to a Young Tradesman, Written by an Old One

“They who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

-Benjamin Franklin, Pennsylvania Assembly in its Reply to the Governor (11 Nov. 1755)

 

Moral Of The Story

“Swimmin in women wit they own condominiums
Five plus Fives, who drive Millineums
It’s all about the Benjamins, what?”
