LAYING
THE FOUNDATION
10. Money Is Just An Idea
Many people are stuck in the paycheck-to-paycheck rut. They work to exist and spend most of their lives working at jobs that barely meet their needs. They think if they only had more money, their lives would be great. Unmet desires are the norm instead of the exception. Often they hate their jobs until they lose them, and blame the system for all their frustration and unmet expectations. Hope may exist in unlikely lottery winnings or inheritances from some tightwad relative. But, the day-to-day routines are unfulfilling, disappointing, and seemingly futile. Monetary obligations consume the thoughts of those individuals participating in the rat race.
