but I wouldn't trade you

As a boy, my father taught me that there was no corporation, organization, or institution in the world that would pay me as great dividends on the investment of my time and my talents and my means as the Church. This came home forcefully to me here a time back when one of my rich friends, worth millions of dollars, said: "LeGrand, I would trade you all my money for your Church experience," to which I replied, "Yes, but I wouldn't trade you. You can't take your money with you when you go, but I can take my experience."
