Money and critical thinking
Money is an invitation to critical thinking, as every choice involves a trade-off.
The concept of ‘you can afford anything, but not everything’ extends beyond finances, impacting time, focus, energy, and attention.
Making wise choices requires understanding these trade-offs.
