Money makes a good servant, but a bad master.

Summary

This quote highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy relationship with money.

However, when money becomes the master, it starts to dictate one's life, leading to unhealthy obsessions, greed, and materialism. It reminds us to view money as a means to an end rather than an end in itself, emphasizing the need for balance and perspective in our pursuit of financial success.
