Which is correct, "My time is valuable" or "My time is invaluable"
An intelligant question coming from someone whose second language is English. Im not entirely sure whether the latter is bad use of english... or not. He said he really wanted to know (bless) so I thought Id put it to the collective :)

Both are correct, but mean different things.


The former implies a value can be put on your time.

The latter implies no value can be put on your time so it cannot be bought.
