Quotes to ponder:
"You’re buying memories with friends and family that you can relive in your mind or by telling the stories to other people."
"By giving money to your kids, nieces, and nephews before they’re a half-century old, you can give them the magical trifecta: money, time, and health!"
"The ultimate goal of money is to support your happiness, both now and later."
