Every time you part with a dollar, you part with a tiny piece of your freedom. If you earn $20 an hour, then that $4 cup of coffee just cost you twelve minutes, that $800 iPad cost you a week, and that $40,000 new car cost you an entire year of freedom. At the end of your life, do you think you’d rather have an automobile or one more year? That’s not to say we must eschew coffee or electronics or cars. I personally own all three. The issue is that we don’t question the things we bring into our lives. And if we’re not willing to question everything, we’ll fall for anything.
