TIME IS MONEY


The Way We Were Painting by Charles Stuart

1982

THE FOUR MINUTE WARNING


we were still living with the threat..

of nuclear annihilation..

yep! at any time..

just 4 minutes left to live..

what would you do?

my generation have been very lucky so far..

we never had to go to war..

vietnam was something on the tv..

we have watched a lot of wars..

but never had to fight..


HOW BIG IS YOUR DICK


the first thing people ask..

when you say you are an artist..

is

do you sell many pictures..

or

are you a professional artist..

or

how much do you make?

they only want to know how much you are worth..

are you rich like them?


MONEY IS NOT WEALTH


time is wealth..

if you have a lot of it..


the things we have when young..

cannot be bought with money..

and once gone..

cannot be got back..


ON THE OTHER HAND


we have to eat..

and being poor is no fun..

so it is all about balance..

live, spend, save..


WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES


and on what streets do they live?


the people who run this land..

want you dumb..

they want you servile..

time poor..

living hand to mouth..

with no savings..

and no healthcare..

so we all have to wise up..

and teach ourselves..

read around..

get smart..


EVERYONE KNOWS THE MARKET IS FIXED


but you still have to build a cushion..

information is not knowledge..

knowledge is not wisdom..

wisdom takes time..


THE RICH GET RICH FROM THE DUMB


look at the shit they sell us..

so..

buy smart..

eat smart..

invest the rest..

only in things you understand..

spread your investments around..

invest regularly..

not all at once..

buy when there's blood on the floor..


leave horse and you'll..

get grass..

be patient and..

grass will turn into milk..
