Getting personal


For a few weeks now I’ve been talking about the little things. I just started right, so you don’t start off by telling anything personal. Also, this is the world wide web aka internet so DUH! I can’t get too personal can I not?

Or can I? You can be the judge. What I would like to talk about is one of the biggest taboo there is and I don’t think it’s only related to the island: it’s a world wide thing. I’m talking about money. Is there anything that gets more personal than that? So yes, I’m getting personal with money.

Now WHY oh WHY would I do that? Well for a number of reasons. The main one being that it’s been on my mind for a while now. Not money as such but my relationship with money. Because even the Bible states: for the love of money is the root of all evil, right? Somehow that got distorted in my head as being money is evil. The middle part of that sentence was conveniently edited out of my head 😀

So it’s not weird that my relationship with money is distorted. Now mind you, “finding” money has never been a problem. Finding meaning working for it and ultimately obtaining it. It’s the keeping part that is the most difficult bit, and where planning comes in. 

Oh Lord what? Yup. Planning. Guess what, I used to not-be-so-good at that too! But since seeing the relationship between money, planning and the life that I would love to have one day, some time ago I decided to change route and learn to look at money differently. Listening to this podcast on Bitcoin, Freedom, Digital Money and then some, made me think that maybe.. just maybe I’m on to something.

Your thoughts? How’s your relationship with money? Let us know below!
