The concept of 'you can't live in stock' emphasizes the importance of enjoying and utilizing resources in the present rather than hoarding for the future. This idea extends to both personal spending and philanthropic actions, suggesting that it is better to give and make a difference now rather than waiting. The speaker highlights that accumulating excessive wealth beyond a certain point does not significantly enhance quality of life, as evidenced by the difference between having a hundred million and a billion dollars.
