≈ Buying and selling time. ≈

I remember being young, really young and finding myself thinking about death out of nowhere. From that moment on, I’ve always felt the urgency of doing as many things as I could because life is a miracle and time is a scarce asset.

Time, in my deepest thoughts, was always against me, though. From a very young age, mortality, money and the pressures of life populated my brain together with the tales of bravery from Prince Valiant while my mind was set free to meander the full potential of being whatever I wanted to be.

Traders and investors buy and sell time. Money is just a vehicle. Risk is the bridge connecting both.

They trade seconds, minutes, hours.
Elongate to days, weeks, months, and years.
Pave their way to decades and centuries.

Men playing God created money and time as a single entity, and both their own image. Money can grow or wither; it can have intrinsic or extrinsic value; it can go from paper to digits; it can be worth something or nothing, it can be stretched or shrunk, saved or spent, born or die; it can become gold or ether, glow or blow. It is the arrow of time who determines what money was, is and can be.

Time is always there, either with or against us. The sooner we begin, the friendlier time is to our money. 

In short: was born, live, soon die.

So, here’s our advice for this new decade: START NOW!

“And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run,
You missed the starting gun.”

Ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run,
You missed the starting gun.”
