Money! Honey! (From Lesson 66)

How do you handle your money? Do you have a savings account? Are you saving for your old age? Do you have a special fund you could live on if you suddenly were without an income? Do you keep track of your money? Do you know where your money goes each month? Do you earn enough for your needs? Do you spend more than you earn? Do you rely upon someone else to support you? Do you work hard and earn very little? Are you a workaholic? Is money your god?

Are you greedy with money? Extravagant? Generous? Foolish? Do you think carefully before making a big purchase? Are you gullible when a salesperson comes along trying to sell you something?

Do you fret and worry about money? Do you envy people with more money? Do you think you are superior to people with less money? Do you think you are inferior to people with more money? Do you associate money with fear? Are you in debt? Are you a borrower?

The better you handle your money, the happier you will be. Some people have a great deal of money, but don’t handle it well, and this brings friction into their lives. Some people don’t have much money but they handle what they have very well. They live below their means. They do not covet what they cannot have. They are content with what their money can buy.
