When you got down to this sentence:
It's not about being able to buy stuff it's about gaining extra time and the freedom to spend it.
...I wanted you to continue with a few examples.
For example.... with money you can do THIS, but without it, you are forced to do THAT
....another example, is that with financial freedom & money you could do THIS and never worry about THAT
.....that would have made the story a little more well rounded for me, if you stated the obvious situations that you were thinking about, when you wrote it.
