Money is about value, not time

Money is about value, not time

You are paid in proportion to the perceived value of your work. Not based on how hard you work: A handyman may work hard, but his work is easily replaceable so he will make less money than a lazy accountant.

The most valuable employees are the ones working on the biggest problems. The richest people are those who solve a problem for billions. 

If you want money, stop chasing money. Look for big problems and come up with solutions. The market will reward you generously.
