This is a variation on a very well known saying, "time is money". Of course, time is not actually money, this is a metaphor. However, it does cost money to hire people to do things, and they usually charge by the hour. And even if you do things yourself and therefore do not have to pay for the labor, you still have only so much time in a day, and the time that you spend on any given unpaid project is time that will not be available for a paid project, so it still costs you money (unless you are unemployed or retired, in which case you have spare time). Another way of looking at this is, we only have so much time in our lives, just as we only have so much money, and we have to spend both of these wisely.
