“If you can count your money, then go back to work”

“If you can count your money, work harder” (or “If you can count your money, then go back to work”) is a saying that has been printed on many images. The saying is related to the quotation from oil magnate J. Paul Getty (1892-1976), who said in 1957, “If you can count your money, you don’t have a billion dollars.”
   
“If you can count your money, you don’t have a 100 million… Work harder” was posted on Twitter by Bitcoin_Miner_mzansi on November 19, 2013. “If you can count your money, work harder” was posted on Twitter by Jamaican King on October 5, 2014. The saying was probably popularized by an image in October 2014.
