No, I am not going all “medieval” here, but I am saying that a lot of the strangest decisions in our lives have money as the cause, and when you look back on them, you might ask why?

• You choose a job in a different city or in an area that you are not interested in, because it pays well.
• You stay and work overtime, because you think you need the money (and don’t do something you want to do, like be with your family or such).

There are many other examples like that, and I am just asking why? Money management is important for this reason, because once you manage money, it no longer manages YOU! You don’t make all your decisions on the basis of money, make them for the right reasons.

Learn, build, save so that you don’t have to worry what money is doing to you and what you have been doing “for money”.
