    Id say thats not true at all lol. Would you rather have $1 or $5? The way I see it, if you found that $5 you earned it! lol

    Would you rather make $50 million on your own or win the lottery for $250 million? I'm torn actually.

    Sounds very similar to give a man a fish/teach a man to fish to me.

    Actually if someone doesn't know what I'm talking about:
    If you give a man a fish he can eat for a day, but if you teach a man to fish he can eat for a lifetime

    The man who said that is Azim Premji. Though it sounds like what you said just now its very different, here the most important thing is the experience you had and skills you improved upon when you earned that dollar.

    It's not about money it's about the kind of person you are.

    Have a little think.

    I'd say that's stupid. If its found or earned, it's still money. But I think that's just a bad metaphore/similie.

    Earning your money does feel much better ^^;;

    If we are talking about millions, I'm sure I'd rather earn 1 million than win 5 million. It would be just more satisfying. But if it's just a case of a few dollars, I'd rather find more.

    The point is that when you have earned $1 you then have the knowledge to earn more. $5 is just $5 if you can't make any more
