Observing others financial choices

Posted by chica with issues under money issues

Have you ever spent a lot of time with friends or family and gotten a real good glimpse of their financial choices? It can be pretty interesting.

I am staying with family for a short period of time right now. And the things that I am seeing and overhearing are a bit shocking. And also a bit sad. However it makes me tremendously grateful that I have seen the error of my previous ways and have gotten money smart. I just wish that when you see others being not so money smart that you could give them advice that they would actually take.

But they won’t.

Instead, you just have to sit back and watch the drama unfold. In fact, I have seen so much in only two days that I am thinking about writing about it all week. And if you are clued in to your finances, even if you are still in debt, you will be grateful that you have wised up once you hear about what I have witnessed! Stay tuned!
