“There's so many people out there that have money mindset problems because they strongly believe that what they should be doing is giving away what they have for the sake of other people,” explains co-host Paige Easter. Paige returns for part two of the Money Mindset series. Today, she and Ben discuss changing your relationship with money to provide yourself with true financial freedom.
While analyzing the classic “Robin Hood” story, Paige and Ben find that it overemphasizes “need” as a higher value than creating. So when it comes to having the right money mindset, we can’t forget that money is value. In the sales process, we’re exchanging value that benefits both parties. Although there are bad-faith individuals in the sales industry who take advantage of consumers, it’s crucial not to dismiss the salespeople providing the services you need. Whether you want to use your money for investing in causes you care about or essential resources, money can be used to align with your ethics and impact the world at large. And by taking care of ourselves, we can create value to help the world.
Having a financial mindset shift can lead to great benefits. Learn more about value creation, the mistrust around sales tactics, and how investing can have positive outcomes.
