Time. It is the most precious commodity and there is never enough of it...and it can not be bought (although technically if I won the lottery I wouldn't have to work & would therefore have a lot more time to do the things I love...)
Ok, so even if the answer was money, it would only be to buy more time! So time is always the most valuable! That's why you get paid to do your job. They're paying you for your time. I wonder if they can pay me enough to be in the soul-destroying hellhole I call work! Oh well, it pays the mortgage. I just look forward to my days off.

It depends. When I have more money but less time, I value time more and like to spend more money per unit of time. When I have more time but less money, I work more hours to make/ save some money. Value is scarcity value. When I have both more money and more time, I spend both together.
But there is another valuation called use value. Some times, money or no money, time spent gives you great pleasure. Some times, time or no time to spare, some people feel happy to receive and grow money.

Time is life,
Money is paper.
So Time is what I value most.

Excellent question Bayneski. I have always had the time and no money or the money and no time, but an ancient Taoist once said, " To know true contentment is to be rich at heart".

in life i value them equally...i think that for ME i will need money in order to achieve some sort of meaning in life. i think that i am going to need money to have a chance to reach "enlightenment" which to me is finding answers to lifes most pressing questions.
in death we will all value time more and wonder where it all went. but there is nothing that can or should change that

When I was working for someone, I crave for time because I need to work overtime everyday.
Now when I am out, doing my own business, I crave for money because I have time but less money than in the past.

That one is so easy..........if I were about to die and was offered either, I would take time. Too, I have been wealthy and I have been poor and neither one had anything to do with my happiness. Time has the only real value, money is a commody to see to your needs.

I wish I had more time to earn money, I wish I had the money to spend time without worrying about money.
If someone I don't know were to give me something, I'd hope that it would be money.
If someone I love were to give me something, I'd hope that it would be time.
The answer therefore is, "It depends."

Time, I can always make money, but time you never get back.
