The Illusion of Overtime

We are all conditioned to fix money issues the same way: work longer, work harder, make more.

Rent increases? Work overtime.

Debt accumulating? Work on weekends.

Want to save for a vacation? Get a second job.

But here's the trap: however many hours you work, there are only so many hours in a week or day or year.
And after you exchange your hours for dollars, you can never get those hours back.

You're working someone else's dream — not yours.

The Problem With Exchanging Time for Money

Consider this: even physicians, attorneys, and high-earning professionals get caught up in this trap.
They may make six figures, but if they retire, their income vanishes overnight.
