The Best Money Quotes
There are certain situations or times in our lives in which a good quote can perfectly explain how we feel or what is going on. Over the years I have compiled a number of quotes related to money and finances that have become favorites of mine. I have quotes that I have said to my kids so often that they are now saying them back to me. Some of these quotes provide motivation and some insight. You will find this list is a mix of funny and serious; financial geniuses and rock legends. Please enjoy my top 10 favorite quotes about money and wealth:
“I am more concerned with the return OF my money than the return on my money.” Will Rogers
“Too many people spend money they haven’t earned to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.” Will Rogers
“Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.” Warren Buffett
“The four worst words in investing are: ‘This time is different.’” Sir John Templeton
“Poor man wants to be rich, rich man wants to be king, and a king ain’t satisfied until he rules everything.” Bruce, The Boss, Springsteen
“Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.” Henry David Thoreau
“A simple fact that is hard to learn is that the time to save money is when you have some.” Joe Moore
“The greatness of a man is not how much wealth he acquires but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.” Bob Marley

Like a person’s favorite music or movies, a person’s favorite quotes can often tell you a lot more about them than the relatively ordinary and inconsequential topic of conversation that it is. I hope these provided you some insight into who I am not only as a wealth manager, but as a person too. And at the very least, I hope this lighthearted list brightened your day a little.
