From my brother (worth sharing)

He knows about my housebound situation and has been sending me things to read.

‘Personal finance is never really about the money,’ says CFP Akeiva Ellis at The Bemused.

“I wish I had known sooner that while financial literacy and knowledge are important, personal finance is never really about the money. Though I had a lot to learn, not knowing was never my biggest obstacle to progress; doing was.

Real progress started when I finally asked myself, ‘Why am I like this?’ when it came to money management and began unpacking the hidden beliefs and narratives I carried about money. Those often unexamined stories act like a bossy backseat driver, influencing decisions without you even realizing it. Once you address that part, the tactics finally stick.”

I am pretty sure it is the same thing with money.
