Time in the bank would be nice. The way my life goes is I either work tons and make a good deal of money but have no time to do -anything- I want or I'm not working much but then don't have a lot of money to do things. I can never seem to find the balance. @ connie

I agree. Time in the bank would be nice. The way my life goes is I either work tons and make a good deal of money but have no time to do -anything- I want or I’m not working much but then don’t have a lot of money to do things. I can never seem to find the balance.

He let me help so I learned a lot. It's really handy to have a mechanical engineer who was once a mechanic in the family, and it certainly saves a lot of money. On the other hand, the work took a large portion of two weekends, so if you consider the value of his time, the repairs may not have been such a bargain. Will you let us know what it costs to get your heater repaired? When my car’s heater failed a few weeks ago, my dad was able to take out the heater core, flush it, and get it working again.

You can invest time though, and that has it's own returns. I sure do wish you could put time in the bank and let it earn interest! You can invest time though, and that has it’s own returns.
