About this lesson
Time is money you cannot save. Everyone gets the same twenty-four hours and none of it banks. Pay kids by the job, not the hour, and watch them give themselves a raise. Hours are enjoyed on purpose, invested, or leaked.
What you’ll learn
- People pay for the finished job, not the hours you stretched.
- Sort hours: enjoyed on purpose, invested, or leaked.
- A skill hour can raise the price of every future hour.
- A calendar is a financial statement. Show where the hours went.
