It’s wonderful to see Financial Therapy in the spotlight. Over the long journey from recognizing a need to creating a professional path, my colleagues at the @FinTherapyAssoc are tireless believers that money is always personal. https://t.co/YLST2p5vQs https://t.co/66bWA41JI2

It’s not just the numbers.
It’s what we want out of life.
It’s our relationships.
It’s avoidance of fear and pain.
It’s the expectations we carry.
It’s ADHD, or depression, or addiction.
It’s what we dream about.
It’s everything.

There’s meaning behind the mess. Don’t miss it.

In a time of conflicting economic reports, how do you stay sane and centered in your own financial reality?

The automation trend isn’t new, but it’s accelerating. 75% of CEOs surveyed expect that A.I. will result in their needing fewer workers in five years.

Big upheavals can bring a lot of financial changes. New behaviors, new identities, less habit and discipline... those show up in the money. So... can we harm-reduction our way through heartbreak?

All of this was on my mind this morning as I read this article, with quotes from the ever-wise @mindmnybalance and Dr. Megan McCoy. https://t.co/eqaZqoIn4l

In June 2020, my very healthy stepdad received a cancer diagnosis. Because of remote work due to Covid, my brother and I + our families were able to essentially move in, to team-parent our littles and team-care for our dad, who died peacefully at home on 7/29/20.

This was my shocking entrance to the sandwich phase, the demands of which are no joke. The stakes are quite literally life and death. How does money shape our options? How do family dynamics re-emerge and get processed? What do we owe our parents, our kids, ourselves?

Just walked by @SallyBeauty and popped in to buy some items. Clerk asked for my email. I declined (I get enough email) and was told that if I didn’t give an email or phone num there was no way to process a transaction. No sale & NO THANK YOU to this forced POS data collection.

How can you move forward after a blowout fight over money differences? ⁦@CharlotteCowles⁩ is smart and sensible about these things and sometimes she lets me help. https://t.co/VmlPJqmWXi

"A student loan system in which borrowers do not generally repay their student loans during normal times, but in which they do repay them when they’re not required to, cannot be said to be functioning well." https://t.co/CEIpwPgwMM

The flip side of socioeconomic mobility in a stratified society is constant anxiety that our status, even if higher than others, is still not the highest.

“Economists surveyed 3K+ people who were or had been married and found that those who spent $1K or less on their wedding were significantly less likely to get divorced than many couples who had spent more.” https://t.co/UdYldHczu8

“When we're talking to each other, we kind of create a single überbrain that isn't reducible to the sum of its parts. Like oxygen and hydrogen combine to make water, it creates something special that isn't reducible to oxygen and hydrogen independently.”

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Climate science is over 170 yrs old but climate denial is less than 30 yrs old. It didn't exist until the impacts of climate change shifted from future to present, implying action was needed. The goal of denial isn't to question science: it's to delay action, as long as possible.
