I understand how it represents "money", i.e. the time value of money. Time clearly isn't money, you can't spend time at the bank and expect them to give you money. Of course if you have money at that bank then there is that expectation.

In economics there is a concept referred to as opportunity cost, which basically means the time you spend on one thing cannot be spent on another thing. This concept can be applied to many things, not just money. Time spent learning the guitar is time spent not painting etc.

No, it took some time and effort to get to this point. It's amazing the broke liberal communists who get up on their soap boxes to lecture anyone who worked to get what they have. You are the thoughtless automaton, commie pinko whatever you are. When your leader tells you to attack, then go forward with the rest of your pinko commie regime. I'll be here, and waiting. The thing is, there's a lot of you, but you are useless in the overall scheme of things. People that don't respect work, saving, and what that takes, are basically useless and I won't use the "c" word but you can catch my drift.

I have to work right now until AI's or robots take over. Then I will get my $1,000 a month for them taking my job. I really connive to get what I want!

If you work for someone, chances are that your time is spent making them money, you will get the leftovers. If you take that money and put it in the bank, then your money belongs to them now and the time you spend making that money also belongs to them. While you enjoy your 0.01% APR from the bank you can wait as inflation dissolves 1.7% of your deposited time and monetary value every year. The value of your life and your time unfortunately is viewed in terms of money by those seeking to use you as an investment.

Even a crappy job will get you a million bucks over a 40 year span.
A good job will get you at least 3-5 million $.

If I was offered 1 million dollars upfront for 40 years of work commitment, I'd have to decline though. So that's not saying much.

Many feel so controlled by "The Man" that millions don't matter.
I work for a 60 billion dollar company and appreciate what I'm given for my effort.
