Money Stories - we all have them!
Money can be a very emotive subject. Like our own health, it affects what we do, how we live, and the decisions we make. Some of us are scared of money (even just talking about it!), while others can't get enough and are forever chasing a goal that will never satisfy us. Some of us obsess over saving and feel guilty when we spend, whereas for others money burns a hole in their pockets. Some of us feel helpless and overwhelmed, unsure of where to start when managing our finances
Whether we like it or not, our financial habits are shaped by how we experienced money when we were young. This impacts our current habits and behaviours around money, whether they reflect early experiences or stand in total contrast to them
The career we choose, or indeed find ourselves in, will also influence our relationship with money. However, our earning power, or lack thereof, does not have to dictate our entire financial lives. Many people who earn a lot of money have little to show for it and feel unhappy, while others with smaller salaries maintain a healthy relationship with money and lead happier lives. How would you like to change your money story? Whether you are young and starting out, already on a blooming career path wanting to develop and maintain good habits, or at the later stages of your career and aiming to ensure you are fully equipped for retirement — whatever that means to you — we can work together to achieve your money goals
