Would you rather have more time or more money?
A simple question for the PH community.
This year, would you prefer to have 2x more time (for family and personal projects) or rather have 2x more money?

Time for sure. It is easy to convert time to money, but the opposite is quite complex.
@daniel_engels yes but the conversion rate is not that great. There is also a hard limit in how much time you can save: you cannot save more time than the time you are currently spending on tasks.
Depending on life situation, both are very lucrative options.
Right now, I will take more time because not only does it present me with an opportunity to earn 2x (and more) but also gives me more time for self.
But, 5 to 10 years back, I would have taken the money.
By the way, who's offering?
This is a difficult question to answer because it depends on the individual. For some, more money would be ideal because they could use it to buy things that they want or need. On the other hand, others might prefer more time because they could spend more time with family and friends or pursue their passions in life. Ultimately, what matters most is what makes you happy!
For me, it's time. But, it's also because I have got basic covered and can say time and not money :)
@mjain_mayank interestingly, after some basic level, the answer doesn't seem to depend too much on income - but rather on personal preferences.
I rather have more Time where I Can enjoy Life because Time Comes only Once in our Lives, while Money can be found anywhere, anytime.
Fortunately this year I was able to manage my time well, therefore I would have wanted more money, even so I totally agree that it is preferable to have more time that can be converted into money.
I was lucky to be able to travel and share with my family. ❤️
In the world, time is one of the significant thing. You can earn money later, but you cannot extend your lifetime however you want. For that reason, we should invest our mental & physical health.
Would prefer time, that way would give a platform to execute things the way I want it to be.
More money — even if I had more time with no money, how would I spend it?
Being a Hyperrealist, I would say more money, you can't have more time, we all have 24h a day. Having money allows you to buy back your time, delegate tasks to experts and organize your time.
