## Money
+It is strange that, in germany, people are not willing to talk about money.
+Asking your employer for a raise feels strange, like asking something nasty. I
+had to _learn_ that talking about money isn't something that should feel
+"forbidden" at all, and that asking your employer for a raise is nothing to be
+ashamed of.
+
+Also, if you have enough money to take care of yourself and your family, you
+have "one problem less". Having not enough money to take care of yourself,
+though, means that everything you do resolves around money.
+Being "rich", whatever that means in our western society, just results in one
+problem less to have to think about... until you have that much money that
+problems are a direct result from that money (false friends, resulting possibly
+in psychological issues for yourself).
+
+Either way, this section will mostly be a collection of links I find
+interesting, not of thoughts on money.
