Money is gold, and nothing else
I made a fortune getting out too soon.
The wise man bridges the gap by laying out the path by means of which he can get from where he is to where he wants to go.
If you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it.
You are affluent when you buy what you want, do what you wish and don't give a thought to what it costs.
Gold is money and nothing else.
