Hello everyone, today I want to continue the topic I started a few days ago, talking about something as important for everyone as money is, and the impact it has on emotions, but not only that, but emotions and our belief system can be determinant in the way we assume the management of our finances, and what attitude we assume to money.
I invite you to read my previous post Money and emotions - Part 1.
Well, somehow, when we are educated we all receive direct and indirect messages about what money is, what it causes, the good and bad things that it can produce, this is shaping what we can believe about money since we were children, and therefore, it will make us act in a certain way towards it. If we believe that money "is the cause of all the evils of humanity ", if from childhood we are taught that, it is logical to think that we are not going to want much of it, since nobody (or almost nobody) wants evil at his side...
For this reason I think that a great part of the financial problems of the people are given by the way of thinking, by how all the knowledge and their beliefs with respect to the finances, in their mind, are geared.
If you are told as a child that the rich are the source of most problems, you will never want to become one, because you don't want to be part of that generator of evil. But, the reality is that being rich or having a great purchasing power does not mean that you are a bad person, nor does it affirm that you will be the best person in the world, of course, but I am also very clear that being of scarce resources is not a guarantee of being that best person, rather this of whether you are a good or bad person will be limited to upbringing, values, humanity, and it is not necessarily hand in hand with your purchasing power, not at all.
So, having money does not make you a good or bad person, I think that if your human values are good, of kindness, it will continue to be so whether you have money or not, so it is necessary that since childhood you do not instill those fears so that as adults the attitude towards money is more beneficial.
This is how I can affirm that emotions, which arise from a mental structure previously formed during the development process, are determinant in our adult life and will define how we handle money and how we deal with it.
I am not a specialist on the subject, I am just sharing my ideas on the subject, I would like to know what you think about this so I can read it in the comments.

When we talk about emotion and money we have to be careful because they are very important factors that we should learn to master, we have to learn to have control of our emotions to give a proper use of money to create a better quality of life.
Thank you for sharing your publication

Hello friend, you are right, many are taught to believe that, and therefore grow up with fears or simply become conformist people, I'm not saying that we should be ambitious but it is always good to want to be better, without showing off or falling into bad values. As you say, being good or bad does not depend on money, it depends on yourself.

I got confused a little bit by the title as I thought I have read it before, but then figured this is 2nd part lol.
Money doesn't determine whether someone is good or bad it's more likely how that specific person was raised in the first place and what we have been told about the money too, on how to manage it, how to make it since not all the ways are the same some good and others bad. In addition, the people who were so poor and suddenly got rich by inheritance has a high chance of using the money in all wrong ways until they figure out that they have wasted a lot before waking up, but that's not something certain, that's at least what I notice from my surrounding environment.
Nice read as always, thanks for sharing!
