Time turns into things
Not just a number. A coffee. A train ride. A movie night. A tiny piece of your life, turned into stuff.
One hour of your life
$30
Roughly enough for 10 train rides.
One work day of your life
$240
That is about 80 train rides.

Money is numbers.
Time is your actual life.
Looking at time as coffee, books, rides, and tiny trips makes it feel much less abstract.

Sometimes the easiest way to understand time is to see what it quietly turns into.
