They say that time is money, and it’s not entirely untrue. However, the way most people interpret this saying is a bit toxic. You don’t need to dedicate every second of the day to producing income. Yes, that’s right, all those podcasters that tell you that you need to hustle 24/7 to become financially stable are exaggerating. The key is to know how much money your time is worth. After all, there are limited hours in a day. Here, we’ll tell you what you can do to maximize how much you make without sacrificing any extra time.
