For me, time is the issue, not money. Mind you, I am retired, so when considering an investment, for example, it is finding the time to take care of it rather than finding the money to invest in it. Yes, there are some investments that require little time, but that's not what I want to do with my money.
But let me tell you why money is never the issue, because others may benefit from this approach. I truly believe that money is limitless. That, not only do I have as much money as I need right now, there's always more to be had when I have a need for more.
Nothing in this world is free. You want more money? Then decide what it is you will give of equal value for the money you want and pursue that. Don't look for the money - look for the people to whom you will give your equal value. If you have money now, then you have given ahead. You gave that much value in the past and that value is now sitting 'in storage' waiting for you to reap the benefits of what you gave.
Zig Ziglar says, "You can have anything you want in life, if you will just help enough other people get what they want."
Napoleon Hill, in Think & Grow Rich, listed 6 steps that turn desires into gold and no.2 was Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire.
I think most people don't have as much money as they want because they have this equation the wrong way round. And, in keeping with the business nature of this thread, most busineses that don't have the money to expand are in this position because they haven't given enough value in the past.
