Are we
obsessed with collecting money? Or just spending in particular?
If there's
any educational course I would pay for right now, it's not about creating money
management systems for people.
I would
take a course on appraising.
When one
can understand the value of items they spend money on, they could go on their
spending sprees.
As long as
they can understand that these things they purchase increase in value over
time, they've made an investment.
If that's
the case, why would I need personal finance anyway?
Well,
personal finance helps you manage your money to your advantage. Collecting
pieces of paper called money isn't the goal. Instead, the goal is to gain
properties and items that earn value over time.
Personal
finance helps you set financial goals for yourself and your family. Don't fear
the zero bank account as long as you have enough to spend for your personal
finance and other possible troubles in the future.
As long as
you've got enough, you don't need to much money. And enough is dictated by the
way you perceive the things you want and the things you need.
