That's why i live life to the fullest....and to cherish moments with friends and family. Time is precious.

I think the phrase is meant mostly for money. Unless you're Scrooge, you don't enjoy the money in its money form.

Stop hoarding, spend it on yourself, have a good time or buy stuff. Give to charity. Heck, bestow it on your hiers while you're still alive and watch them enjoy it.

But don't just keep it there ... You Can't Take It With You.

I think it means, don't waste your time making more money than you need. Spend your time on people and things that you love.

That's certainly the message of the play and movie, notwithstanding Grandpa's refusal to pay his income tax.

I thought "You Can't Take It With You" was a wonderful play.

Well, color me embarrassed. It seems I pasted the wrong link in this post. With apologies for anyone who clicked it at work.

While I did not find the original link I meant to post, here is something up the same alley.

Oh how I long for the innocent days of Rick Rolling.

It's not like you'll be around to see it (probably). Unless you're a vampire.

BTW, the phrase "you can't take it with you" always kind of annoyed me. Um, yeah, I don't expect to play my Wii after I'm dead. If you believe in a heavenly, blissful afterlife, why would you want to take things with you? You wouldn't need them. I really don't care that I can't take stuff with me, because it's about having the item now.

I agree with Strangler, in the sense that it's about not wasting your time on more material purposes than you need. I don't think it was intended to be about, say, things you enjoy (say, Wii) but more about the pursuit of wealth for the purpose of being wealthy, the acquiring of stuff for the sake of acquiring stuff, not because you love it. The aim of making "this much" money so you can say you have "this much." And at the cost of perhaps missing out on other things, which are free in terms of monetary exchange but expensive in terms of energy and time. Namely, love. Friends. Family.

Some group of people of which you are a member, but I'm not saying this about you personally just a group of people that so happens to include you, must be from Arizona.

VAM yet again... :snap:

Kevy's going to be quite upset that he can't take his junk with him.... :evil:
