personal finance: turning money into wealth

Just because we are in finance doesn’t mean we are financially well-off. Even if we’re in the finance business.

I can’t help but think that the financial industry has convinced a lot of people that they are financially well-off in that they can’t afford to change anything up there. There was a time when an investment banker would tell me “I’ve got this money in the bank and this money in the bank and this money in the bank.” That was back in the days when banks had branches in every town and you could walk around and find money in banks.

The one thing that has changed for me in my life is that I have an understanding of the world outside of my control. I can see where I am at from my friends, my family, and even my neighbors. I can also see where I have to go to find some money by going to school. I think that is the reason my friends are so often over-excited about the world outside of their control.

The only thing I have to keep me from the brink of insanity is my bank account. I can’t even go online without the knowledge that I may be over the edge. I have a tendency to think, “Oh I’m so close to being broke, I’m just going to get to that cash. It’s just a matter of time.
