Money Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated
Let’s just lay it out on the table: money often brings out the extreme in people. Money is a frustrating topic. You find two-sided information on every topic you search regarding money. Everyone you know seems to know everything about what you are going through. And caution! Marriage counseling may be required. It can be truly confusing and sadly, a lot of times we don’t really learn something until it’s by experience and by then, sometimes it’s too late.
There was an article in the September 2017 issue of Forbes magazine titled: 4 People to Never Take Financial Advice From.1 These people include:
- Your co-workers and close friends
- Your family members
- People with more money than you
- People who will sell financial products
Yet, we seem to take advice from these individuals constantly. Why is that? I realized that all of these people share one thing in common: they are easy for you to understand and relate to. Your co-workers and close friends run in your circles and talk your language…same goes for your family. People with more money may not manage money well, but know how to make it. And people who sell financial products are pretty good at sales. According to Forbes, though, advisors are just the right people to listen to. They listen and come to understand what is important to you and what you really need. But, unfortunately, advisors are not always easy to understand.
