I became a stockbroker in my mid 30s, I thought I knew about money. After all, I had gone to college and was in the business school. My eyes were opened, I knew next to nothing. I realized that money was no different than a hammer, it's just a tool. And like any tool, it can be used constructively or destructively. I learned that nobody can pay me except myself.

A little off topic... here's a link to my favorite song about money. I love the line "when a man finds the courage to keep his cash, some romance is bound to start." Enjoy!

Great post. I think a lot of doubts stems from reiterating a lot beliefs we're taught from an early age and even in our daily lives. Do we avoid these people who tend to believe that the world is empty or scarce? Do we help them? Or perhaps understanding and empathizing with their perspective may help? What do you think?
