I am a financial planner, not a psychiatrist, but I do know that your net worth will rise to meet your self-worth only if your self-worth rises to accept what can be yours.
Make yourself worthy of money and money will make itself worthy of you.
Every time you overhear something hurtful, I want you to do something kind for someone else.
Financial freedom is our birthright, rather than the "slave walk" of the Monday through Friday grind.
How you end something as profound and important as a marriage is a reflection of how you live your life--financially, emotionally, and spiritually.
