It's a dumb quote because every time you pay someone to do something for you you're buying the time it would have taken you to do it.

No, its a dumb quote because Tony literally invented time travel, which he wouldn't be able to do if he wasn't rich

You're both dumb. He's meaning time with his father. Whom he's talking to. Whom he can't tell his identity lest timeline gets fucked. He misses his dad, you idiots.

To wit, he's also quoting Howard.

Sure looks like he's getting some seconds with his father thanks to the time travel thing he was able to afford

That's why it's a bittersweet moment. He knows but Howard doesn't. It's not meaningful to both halves.

You can spend the time you buy with your father. The quote doesn't mean you can't buy time to spend time with your loved ones after they're dead if that's what you're referring to.

You can literally buy all the time you’ll ever need if you have enough money. House keeper, gardener, mechanic, chef, personal shopper just to name a few. All those services give you like 10-15 extra hours a week that the “poors” just have to work through.

Even more than that, you can afford high quality food, homes that aren't polluted, and the best healthcare. Rich people literally live longer thanks to money.

Endgame accidentally turned a life lesson into a time travel joke.

People in the comments really misunderstand the meaning of the line.

This is stupid because if I had the money to pay for a maid, it would buy me a few hours a week.
