on the contrary, it's very important for people to distinguish clearly between statements of objective fact and personal opinions. they ought to do it more often. imo.

more on topic, time is inherently more valuable than money due to its fundamental scarcity. there are only 24 hours in a day, and only so many days in a person's life. if you have time, you can always trade it for money. but if you have money, you can't always exchange it for time.

I think it’s very clear that different people have different amounts of money and thus different ability and willingness to pay certain amounts for certain things.

That's overly reductive. In many cases, it's easier to make more money from existing money than it is to make money from just time.
