Time Poor to Time Rich

Time Poor to Time Rich

I’m guessing most of you never heard of phrases like ‘Time Poor’ or ‘Time Rich’ till you stumbled upon my little blog here. Well, don’t you worry, because I too was on the very same boat not too long ago up until I stumbled on a very special video that changed my life.

Today, I’d like to share one of the most INSPIRING videos I’ve watched back in 2018. It’s a TED Talk with Lacey Filipich — a motivational financial educator & public speaker who shares her unique story on how she went from Time Poor to Time Rich!

In fact, her video alone gave me the spark to take a hard look at our financial journey and change it for the better!

This is her amazing story.

And so the “TIME RICH CANADIAN” was born! I knew the basic idea of how money was supposed to work way back when, but she was the one who really changed the way I looked at money… and most importantly, the way I looked at TIME!

Want to learn more from Lacey Filipich herself? She actually started her own online school on financial independence called MONEY SCHOOL — you can check out the various courses she has there.

Their school’s mantra is simple: Financial independence makes you ‘time rich’

A simple, but quite powerful slogan! I love it! She might be from Australia, but you can still apply the very same core concepts back here on our home soil in Canada!

Time is our most precious, non-renewable resource and there isn’t a moment more to waste! So get up on your feet (with no excuses) and join the club in the pursuit of being TIME RICH!


“Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time.”
