This is indeed so true; yet money doesn't buy time. Unless you are in your dream location there's always inherent costs to visiting relatives / friends, match their schedule, or simply go wherever you feel good. So you end-up with a double need for money ;)

Still ... I fully agree!

In some degree, it does. If you have more money than you need, you can opt to work less hours (not everyone can, but in Germany for example most people have that option).

Problem is, I have to pay for rent, food and health care. So every day I work is a future day I don't have to work.
