Money=Agency=Freedom
If you want to be a tennis coach, instructor, or simply have the time to play in your adult years then wealth is a great source of power to follow your desires.
So, looking at wealth in a certain way that gives you freedom to live life as you want means spending less time on accumulating things on more time on putting together a means of income that will offer you the time and freedom to do what you want.
One way to understand what this means is to imagine what you would do if you won the lottery with enough money to quit work and do whatever you wanted to do.
