Comment on Money doesn't solve everything, but it helps.

Maybe by extension it’s time.
Having had kids I’ve really learned that I need time to just fritter away. Down time. Not for chores or for date night or for my hobbies or for tv.
Just time to do nohing important and watch the day while away.
Sadly I need a lot of this time. Or maybe I’m just running a huge deficit so it seems like I need a lot.
It always was.
Money is how we convert human work into convenience. It’s the universal bartering good.
If I don’t want to do something, I exchange time spent doing something else for it. This also lets me specialize in doing a single thing, which is how we progressed as a society.
