Money isn’t made from working; money’s made from providing service, which doesn’t mean you’re working at all. I’m providing a service and earning money in Australia, but I’m not in Australia.

We get paid for bringing value to the marketplace. It takes time,... but we get paid for the value, not the time.

Don't work for money, make money work for you.

There is all the difference in the world between paying and being paid. The act of paying is perhaps the most uncomfortable affliction that the two orchard thieves entailed upon us. But being paid- what will compare with it? The urbane activity with which a man receives money is really marvelous, considering that we so earnestly believe money to be the root of all earthly ills, and that on no account can a monied man enter heaven. Ah! how cheerfully we consign ourselves to perdition!

..I believe it is a big mistake to think that money is the only way to compensate a person for his work. People need money, but they also want to be happy in their work and proud of it.

Profit is not a cause but a result-

The people that are rich, that have the money, get more money without doing anything. They do not work at all.

We are not going to give you money [while] you’re sitting at home every day doing nothing. We must give you jobs [and] we must give you money, because when you work you develop self-respect and dignity

What you’re saying is that making an employee work and profiting from that work are two different things.

Earning more money increases freedom.

Spending less than you earn reduces stress.

The ways by which you may get money almost without exception lead downward. To have done anything by which you earned money merely is to have been truly idle or worse. If the laborer gets no more than the wages which his employer pays him, he is cheated, he cheats himself.

Money brings no satisfaction if one has to work for it; for if one works for it one has no time to spend it.

If you don’t want to work you have to work to earn enough money so that you won’t have to work.

Success is not the result of making money; earning money is the result of success — and success is in direct proportion to our service.
