re: money is not the key to happiness

In French, the word for happy is Content.
Satisfied with what you have in your relationships is probably about as happy or content as I get.
I don’t trophy travel or try to keep up with the Jones’s ever.

Work is so named because someone has to pay you to do it.
I work for money.
I do not work for free.
I am working toward freedom.

Time is running out. I’d rather be off than work. As I get ready to retire, I am burning every minute of paid leave I have. They keep saying, “you could just cash in your leave when you retire.”

Time is worth more than money at this juncture for me. Time off helps me be content.
