How much is one hour of your time worth to you? Even if you haven’t explicitly answered this question, your behavior every day implies some conversion rate between time and money. And for most people, that conversion rate drastically overvalues money and undervalues time.
The old adage “time is money” is wrong. Time and money are very different. Time is irreplaceable. Money can be accumulated into massive piles and spent whenever you choose, but your stockpile of time is being depleted at a rate of one day per day. You can always make more money, but you can never get back time. And it’s easy to trade time for money but very hard to do the reverse. So we should have a bias toward favoring time over money.
But the bias almost always goes the other way. We are wired to believe that amassing material possessions is the surest route to happiness, so we spend our time making money. We have a tendency to overfocus on quantifiables like paychecks and expenses, and underfocus on non-quantifiables like friendships and family. We guard against the loss of money, but not against the loss of time, as if the inevitability of time passing makes it worth less rather than more. We say time is precious but we don’t treat it that way.
· What is the largest amount of money you would pay to be one year younger? One day younger? Is the first number about 365 times the second number?
· What is the smallest amount of money you would accept to be one year older? One day older? Are your answers about the same as for those in the earlier questions?
· What is the smallest amount of money (after tax) that you would accept to work for one hour, in a job you don't enjoy, which doesn't help you develop skills or move you in the direction of your dreams?
· What is the most you would pay someone to do
an hour of your errands that you don't enjoy?
