There is a popular Internet meme regarding time being a magic bank account. Apparently the famous coach, Bear Bryant, kept a card in his wallet which related time to money and treated time as a game.
Here are the rules:
1. Each morning you get 86,400 seconds as a gift of life.
2. What ever you don’t use on that day is forever lost.
3. Each morning your account is refilled, but the game can dissolve all your remaining time anytime without warning
The meme, asks you to compare those seconds to dollars to understand the value of time. Now some people are no better at saving money then they are saving time, but certainly the meme helps give a different perspective.
