The difficulty is that this skill is not taught in traditional schools as colleges and universities, but through the Practical Education, that is why many people reach adulthood with a level of money management very low, where everyone is more prepared for attending to survive the daily living expenses such as food, toiletries, children’s education, and sporadic as clothing, travel, nightlife, etc.
To this one joins that the persons’ great mass in the world continues being hired on depending to live of an employment and that therefore the persons do not worry a lot of their economic future in the present, but they think that this will happen one day when a pension fund pays their contributions to them at the end of the labor life.
But there is also a widespread current of thinking especially in marginalized economic sectors where it is not given the importance to money management because it barely reach for the necessary, then that someday when a positive change happen in the current economic situation, then it’s time to look at the economic reality with new eyes and to practice new habits that create peace and abundance.
Of course this expected day never arrives and the situation remains on the edge of bankruptcy for a long time and in some cases end in total ruin.
According to T. Harv Eker Author of Best Seller €The Secrets of the Millionaire Mind€, money management starts with any level of budget to increase profits and reduce losses. So a person can be equally broken with a great income than with a small income.
