A Quote from the Sage of Walden Pond

The cost of a thing is the amount of what I call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.

-HENRY DAVID THOREAU

“Rich people stay rich by living like they’re broke. Broke people stay broke by living like they’re rich.”

Ryan Petty
