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. + + ### Tooling * [plaintextaccounting](https://plaintextaccounting.org) -- cgit v1.2.3
