You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 1: of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I 4 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. 5 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 2: Today's quote comes from P. T. Barnum. 6 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: You might know him from the Barnum and Bailey circus. 7 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: He was also an author, a businessman, and politician.

Money 9 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: is a terrible master, but an excellent servant. Now I've 10 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: been broke, people say it's having money better than being broke, definitely, 11 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: because money creates options. 12 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: It creates options. That's what money allows you to do. 13 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: Not only can you help other people, but it also 14 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: creates options. Now, let me explain that to you. If 15 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: you don't have any money, you can only get as 16 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: far as you can walk.

Your options you can move further. You 21 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: get a little money, you can get a cab. An 22 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: uber get a little more money, you get a car. Okay, 23 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: you have more options. You continue. You get a little 24 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: more money. You can get on a plane. Okay, now 25 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: the plane gets canceled. You get a little more money. 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: You can charter a plane. You get a little more money, 27 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: you can own a plane. Your options continually go. Let's 28 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: talk about health. You get sick, you have to stand 29 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: in line at the clinic.

You're sicker, you can fly to God 33 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: knows where, to the specialist. So there is nothing wrong 34 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: with having money. It creates more options. You can help 35 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: other people who are in dire need that you couldn't do. 36 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: If I don't have any money, I can't help you. 37 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: But now I can't help you. But money it can 38 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: become your master. They have a thing where they say 39 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: material things start to own. You get a house a 40 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: little bit too expensive, Get all these cars, get all 41 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: these notes, blou. Now you're working for your material things. 42 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: You're not working because you want to work, or you're 43 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: working to eat. You're working for material things, not just 44 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: food and shelter. You're working for that Ferrari. You're working 45 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: for these that boat you're working to keep that that 46 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: now is your master, you know. And some people have 47 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: so much money that all they want is more money, 48 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: and now they're in some type of money drug addiction 49 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: that they're just trying to get commas and this, that 50 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: and the third and they become a slave to that 51 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: where it's money they don't even need. That's a whole 52 00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: nother addiction. I understand both sides of this quote. Money 53 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: is a terrible master if you're controlled by it and 54 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: it has power over you, yes, but it is an 55 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: excellent servant if you have it. It allows you so 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: many things that you can do that you couldn't do 57 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: without it. And I mean sometimes even me, I find 58 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: myself by having a little money, I live differently. Some 59 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: of my friends, if they want to fly to see me, 60 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: they have to get their plane ticket two months in 61 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: advance to get that budget ticket, where I can wait 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: till the last minute. Now I'm going to pay a premium. 63 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: But it created me an option that they don't have, 64 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: and that might remove a little bit of stress out 65 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: of my mind that they might be dealing with. It's interesting, 66 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: you know, But I know one thing they say money 67 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: is the root of all evil. No, lack of money 68 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: is the root of all evil.
