Emotional and money

Money is a more emotional topic than commonly believed. It’s expressed in numbers, creating an illusion of logic and precision.

However, money is not just numbers, but numbers that record the
passage of money. When you walk on the beach, the footprints you leave in the sand are not you, but a record of your passage. Numbers record the passage of money. Far more important than the
numbers is how you feel about money. There is no topic more likely
to cause very intense arguments for couples. In less intimate relationships, feelings about money are almost invariably suppressed.
