The true value of time has never been captured in our society and I am on a mission to try and capture it. Time ties us all together. It is the common denominator that every human has regardless of their station in life. We all get 24 hours until we don't. Whether you are a homeless person living on the streets or elon musk, you get 24 hours. You can't buy more time, you can only rent it from others. They still get to decide how they use that time even when it is rented out. You could have a job and not do it, you can work over the allotted hours and give more time than demanded. Time is yours to control, based on your actions and everything that you do. This concept of time is often not talked about because it is so standardized between all humans. In the markets, time is what turns a bet into an investment. Time is the deciding factor in many things in life. That is why I believe we need to capture the true value of time in one asset that we all can have ownership in. Americas Holding Company is designed to do that by sharing ownership based on the number of years that someone has been involved in the organization. You can't go back in time and say I heard about that and sign up. I remember when in college I heard some kids talking about Apple stock being $25 per share. If I had invested then, it would have been a huge win for my financial life, but I didn't. I didn't put more on the line, and now all I have to show for that is a memory. Most people don't think about how the decisions they make on a regular basis affect them. That is why I have designed America's Holding Company the way that I have. That is why when I die, all my life insurance money goes into America's Holding Company, to fund the people who believe in this mission. That is why my kids will access their inheritance the same way that anyone else can. I believe it is the safest way to save money for my kids and for their future. Don't let time just slip away. Use it as a tool to build the life you want to live.

Hey, Life with Justin Stephens community! Justin here, with a journal entry on a concept that's at the heart of my mission—the true value of time.

Reflections: Time as the Ultimate Currency

From my experiences, time's value hits hardest in missed opportunities—like that Apple stock moment. AHC is my way to make time work for everyone, turning years into equity.

Why This Matters for Your Journey

Time is finite—leverage it in finance (long-term investments), business (consistent actions), and life (daily decisions). Don't let it slip; build with it.
