Some people just do not know the value of money.
Money is money regardless of a dollar or ten million dollars.
That means a dollar is as valuable as ten million dollars.
If you do not value a dollar, you will not value ten million dollars.
If you spend a dollar on unnecessary things, and do not regret the decision, you will do the same thing when you have a few million dollars to spend.
A person who values money will get to keep the money.
That is why many people make money but not everyone keeps money.
A dollar spent on unnecessary thing is a dollar wasted. That is why you should learn to treasure every single cent you make.

Money is for spending. If you have money but you don't spend, what's the point of having money but of course, you have to spend on things that can make you more money, if it's possible like you buy a laptop or a computer and you can start to earn money online. And that is the function of money; to be spent.

Do not forget that we have at least 20 years of retirement to spend the money.
That is the time when medical checkups and medication cost a bomb!
That is why the Chinese household in China are saving 50% of their income.
When you do not have government to pay for you, you only have your savings to last through retirement.

The value of money changes as we grow older.
it is not just the value of money in our mind.
The price of things increases all the time, and today I think you cannot buy a meal with 1 rs anymore.
In the future, you may not even buy a meal with 100 rs.

That is true. Some people just don't value money, and think that it just grows on tree. However, that is not the case. There have been times when I have bought a thing or two, which I did not need, but I still try to be careful with the money I have.

This is very true. I started to realize the value of money when I started working.
