Awhile back, I lent one of my ๐˜ง๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฆ personal finance books โ€œThe Millionaire Next Doorโ€ to my friend.

I had lent him tons of books before, and this time, when he gave it back to me, I noticed that the cover had meticulously been wrapped in white craft paper.

I asked him why he had done that.

This is how loaded a topic money can be.

This is how taboo the topic of money can be.

My friend didn’t want someone knowing he was ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ about money.

The taboo around money comes from the belief that money somehow ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ด something about us, as human beings.

I reject that wholeheartedly.

Let’s dismantle this money taboo. Let’s ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ฌ about money.

Whatโ€™s possible when we do is quashing the shame and judgment that surrounds money, and finally learning how to deal with it powerfully.
