Another book is a Simple Path to Wealth by Jim Collins. It’s the best book on money management I’ve ever read but it also has a philosophy of being smart about the balance between making money and living life.
He has a popular blog that contains most of the info in his book

The title indicates the author advocates spending every last dime you have before death. If so, he’s an imbecile.
Yes, you can’t “take it with you,” but on my death bed I’ll be comforted knowing I left a nice inheritance for my kids after a lifetime of hard work.

Thats if your medical expenses dont take all of it and if not then hopeful taxes want take the rest
I mean to leave something decent for your kids you need a lot to hold through
But yes its the concept that we trade our time for money so left over cash is time we wasted if not enjoyed

That’s only true if you know the exact time and date of your death, otherwise it’s just arrogance, not time wasted

It’s not so much that we trade our time for money as we trade our time for meaningless crap we buy. The lesson is to lead a simpler life so we can have more time to enjoy life.

I know you read the Bible, and that is a book that has changed more lives than any other book.
There is a New Testament parable of the rich fool (Luke) that reminds me of that type of mentality. It was more pertinent regarding hoarding crops.
To switch gears, I've heard The System by R. Dugan is excellent.
Penthouse forum is life changing for me. Hustler's Beaver Hunt has been a source of inspiration too.
