Money is a tool, not a goal from "summary" of The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel

Money, for most people, is seen as the ultimate goal. The endgame. The finish line. But this perception is flawed. Money, in reality, is merely a tool. A means to an end. It is a tool that can help you achieve your goals and dreams, but it is not the goal in and of itself. When you treat money as a goal, you are likely to make poor financial decisions. You may chase after more and more money, without a clear purpose or plan in mind. This can lead to a never-ending cycle of greed and dissatisfaction. However, when you view money as a tool, you are more likely to use it wisely. You will understand that money is a means to an end, and not an end in itself. By shifting your mindset and seeing money as a tool, you can make better financial decisions. You can use money to create the life you want, rather than being controlled by it. You can invest in experiences, relationships, and personal growth, rather than just accumulating wealth for its own sake.
  1. The key is to understand that money is a tool that can help you achieve your goals and live a fulfilling life. It is not the end-all, be-all. By treating money as a tool, rather than a goal, you can take control of your financial future and make decisions that align with your values and aspirations.
