You think money is a math problem—if you learned more budgeting apps or listened to more podcasts about investing, you’d be good at money and be able to fix your problems. Newsflash: That doesn’t work. It doesn’t fix anything because money is so much more than math - it’s feelings, emotions, and beliefs. So what can you do? You can learn from our guest, Carl Richards, a Certified Financial Planner™ and creator of the Sketch Guy column, which appeared weekly for a decade in The New York Times and host of 50 Fires podcast. Carl’s recipe for money success looks like mine, which I share on this show. He believes in getting past your money blocks; you must understand what money means to you and where you want to go - what do you want your money to do for you? You’ve got to get to the root of the issue around money and fix that. I’m a huge fan of Carl’s. I’m a guest on his podcast, 50 Fires, today so you can listen to that episode. I want you to throw out everything you think about money and everything you’ve learned and listen closely to this episode. This is the real stuff about money that will help you create change. I know it because I’ve lived it…and so has Carl.
