money emotions

You’ve probably had all kinds of feelings about money.

You also have habits and attitudes that have been shaped by your family.

A girl whose parents talk with ease about family finances will think

differently about money than a girl whose parents worry or argue when

the bills arrive. A girl who’s grown up shopping the sales with her mom

will likely have different spending habits than a girl who has only seen

her mom buy freely. A girl’s experiences may incline her to like or dislike

people with more money—or to like or dislike people with less.

All this means that your feelings about money may be complicated. But

the way you use money doesn’t have to be.

When it comes to making decisions about money, keep your head cool

and your thinking clear. Let three basic questions be your guide:

1.

Where are you now in terms of money?

2.

Where do you want

to go?

3.

How do you

get there?

confidence

guilt

anxiety

greed

happiness

pride

jealousy

generosity
