About this Quote

This quote by Nat King Cole speaks to the concept that cash can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can provide us with the ways to live a comfy life and pursue our dreams. On the other hand, it can be a source of stress and interruption, eliminating from the important things that truly matter. By stating that he makes no claim to being a company genius, Cole is recommending that money should not be the sole focus of our lives. Rather, we ought to make every effort to find balance in between our financial objectives and our individual values. Money can be a powerful tool, however it must not be the only thing that drives us. We should strive to find a balance in between our monetary goals and our personal worths.
