The above example is the sale of a good (a candy bar). The same analysis applies to the sale of services (such as a car mechanic repairing cars). People sell their time as much as they sell what they own. In this sense, "'''''time is money'''''" because time can be converted into money by spending that time working. You could convert 8 hours of time into about $60 by working at McDonalds, for example. | The above example is the sale of a good (a candy bar).
