Your money relationship begins as a child, which is a sentiment I read about in Suzie Orman’s book ‘9 Steps to Financial Freedom’ and again in Phumelele Ndumo’s book ‘from Debt to Riches’. This is something I believe to be true; however, they are not always fixed. As a child, I learned that you don’t […]
