Most of our time was spent on working to earn money. Most of the time, the time we spent, will no longer be regained, while money we spent could be regained again. However, in reality, our money can buy food for us to continue to live while time could not buy as food to eat. What do you think is valuable in life: TIME or MONEY?

time is more valuable in life yes you can regain the money that you have lost but time you cannot get this back and only with the good use of time can really earn good money

yeah... good use of time can really help us earn good money... :) How? What do we need to earn good money? Is it only using our time? Where?

I value time more than money, because time lost will never be recovered anymore. It is very important because what we lost today will forever be lost and missed. Money will be earned in later years but not time.

TIME - It's the most valuable thing in the world, because time is gold. :)

Good question, cjsalas. Frankly, I believe that both are important and should be managed wisely. One false move in terms finances then you have to work or triply hard to get it back. With time, however, you can no longer get it back once you misuse or don't use it.

Yes, everything must not be misused or else, things will not be that good... There will be regret on the misused time and as well as the money. Instead of giving more importance PRIORITIZING on what to do and what to buy, misused time and money requires effort to compensate the loss. :)

Time for sure, nothing is more important to me than being able to spend your time as you wish. this is why I am now spending a lot of time on trying to create more free time for myself in the future.

Wow it's good... Your time is really valuable because time wasted will never come back. Create more free time for yourself in the future? I guess you've been very busy taking time to work

A very good but difficult question to answer. Both time and money i believe is important to every one of us. It would be great to try to balance the both of them. However, in life, it is not easy to do so. I think we would need to decide at different moments which one is the more important one and then decide.

Yeah, we need to decide on which is more important, yet what is best to do, we must MANAGE our time and money so that everything will be on good track. Would you agree?

If I were to choose, well it's both time and money. You are spending your time to make money to be able to provide your basic needs. Sometimes it would be meaningless, if you go beyond your allowable time to work. Thus, stress, overwork and exhaustion leading to unhealthy lifestyle. Since I choose both money and time. It would be nice if we balance things from it.

I valued time most in the life. Because when time will be passed then it will never be returned to your life again. And the time may be bad or good. if good then you acheive lots of sucess in your life and if bad then forget it. lets it will be past. And every bad time may brings good time also. In some times money brings also bad times to your life also. So why we are following the material life.

I wish I can say that it is easy to answer but it's not. Most people work for long periods of time to earn money for their loved ones, but that also means they're losing a lot of time to spend with them. However, money will always be there but not our time with our families. Once you reach 60 years old, you can't relive the days when you're child was staring to make his or her first milestones. I'm happy being a full time mom, I get to spend most if not all my time to see my baby grow. Thank you Lord!

Both time and money are important in my life. Time we are spending for money by working online or by working in the office. Time has limitation for all kinds of jobs in life and if you don't follow the time then never success in life. We can see the labourers who work on the road or the labourers who are working to construct the building, they follow the time to get their wages for their livelihood. The manager pays the wages for the completion of work according to the time given by him. Such kinds of works can be seen in private companies, hotels etc. So, the word " Follow time to earn money " is valuable in life.

Most valuable for me is TIME. Because you can never bring it back, stop it nor control it. Time passes by. So, We have to spend time wisely and cherish everything we had. Every seconds counts by building memories with our dearest families, friends and love one because we would never know when our TIME is over.
