Point 2 reminds me of what my late mother used to say regarding money: Don’t be enslaved by money. I hold her words to heart.

Just wanna add on that different children in the same household can undergo the same experiences but hold drastically different attitudes towards money. My brother and I didn’t grow up in a wealthy family. That’s why I don’t really care about money. I’m all about gaining experiences for free or for minimal expenses. I’m willing to sacrifice a bit of comfort to do so. My brother, on the other hand, craves for money to buy stuff to show others that he has arrived in life. “Psychological wounds of his life experiences”, so to speak

Good read!
