10 Things I Think I Think About Money

1.       I think most of us believe we want it in order to provide for our loved ones.
2.       I think we often spend it in ways that aren’t truly in line with “providing”.
3.       I think we don’t appreciate how rare our money “problems” are in contrast to how most of the world’s population lives.
4.       I think we fail to understand the true cost to our health, attention, and relationships of what it takes to earn it.
5.       I think most people do not believe that they control their level of happiness about it.
6.       I think we don’t want to admit our ignorance about how the financial world really works.
7.       I think we are too quick to believe people who make money selling their ideas about it.
8.       I think most of us expect the wrong things when we invest it.
9.       I think we build lives around it rather than the other way around.
10.   I think when managed, valued, and understood correctly, it can be an important part in living a happier life.
