People see money as the goal. It's not. It's a tool to be used to achieve the goals that actually matter. It's insulation against discrimination by an employer, or often the law. It's freedom to allow you to travel when you need to. Even not worrying about whether or not you'll be able to eat tomorrow is a freedom many people, many of our own kind, don't have. This is what I'm giving you and your sister.
