Pitch Your Scale of Living Below Your Means: Taylor

"The art of living easily as to money is to pitch your scale of living one degree below your means" -- Sir Henry Taylor

Money is A Measure, Not Wealth Itself

"Money is a scale by which wealth is estimated, and though it is not wealth, more than a barometer is weather, yet it is our only mode of computing it, and nothing, perhaps, is more natural than that the shadow should sometimes have been over-valued, or even taken for the substance." -- Thomas Joplin
