Health vs Money

Which is more important to you? 
Health or Money?

There's really not a right answer to this question, more like a logical answer depending on where you are in your life.  A priority item so to speak. It goes something like this, when your young, "Man, I gotta get out here and get this paper!"  That's more of a younger, push push type mentality, and there's nothing wrong with that mind set.  However,  as you get older that mind set will take on a different tone.

As we mature mentally our bodies slowly deteriorate physically, and some have it worse depending up their lifestyle or unexplained medical surprises.  
"I can only stand on my feet so long at work because my knees and back are killing me!"  Could be weight, could be a strain, could be medical... 

Mentally, you have better earning potential because you get a better understanding of finances with age, sometimes. LOL! Physically, your earning potential gets worse because you don't have the strength or the energy to chase that dollar bill like when you were younger.  On the other hand, if we take our health more seriously we can maintain that strong earning potential. 

How do we do this you ask?  Simple, diet & exercise.  Since that metabolism slows quite a bit with age you must follow this major rule when it come to nutrition.  YOUR CALORIC INTAKE CANNOT OUT WAY YOUR ACTIVITY LEVEL!! 
In other words, if you find yourself sitting down eating more often than the time you spend moving, there's going to be an issue.   This is how we create FAT.

Almost sounds like money,  DO NOT SPEND MORE THAN WHAT YOU HAVE COMING IN!!
This is how we create DEBT.  Hmmmmmmmmm...

Stay Inspired,
Dominic
