Alamak, what a letdown. I thought you were going to say something profound like the most precious thing is your soul or your health.
You totally miss the point. Time is meaningless when you are in prison serving 10 years, or when you are poor or when you are old and want to get back into employment or when you have no health and no wealth.
Time is meaningless when you waste it and when not contributing to society but sitting at home and watching TV.
The rich knows how to make full use of their time. They focus it on what matters to them and employ people to do those things they don't want to waste their time on. For eg., house keeping, washing their cars, gardening, etc...

The new rich is not those who have millions or billions but still stuck worrying about their wealth.
The new rich are those who have enough to sustain themselves physically (food, shelter and other needs) and the have lots of free time to pursue their passion in life such as their hobbies, reading lots of books, learning new knowledge, helping the poor, etc.
The longer you trade your time for money, the lesser time you have. Not forgetting, you never know when you will die. You can die any time, it can be even be today. Think about it.
Have you made a difference to the world? What's your legacy?
