So true, self disaplin and subsequently lifestyle choices make a huge difference. With my circle of friends I prefer dinner parties and social gatherings held at home as opposed to dinning out or socialising in expensive bars.

I totally agree. I believe good personal finance is the foundation of a successful, less stressful and therefore happy life. As I often mention in my articles, money can’t literally buy happiness but it can certainly contribute to the level of happiness in one’s life.

I read somewhere that the cause of many divorces is due to stress from lack of money – in other words, poor financial management. As JD at Get Rich Slowly recently mentioned in one of his posts, personal finance is really about personal development.

Oh yes. Money is often more than just money. It has tremendous symbolic value.
For me, money is means of gaining security in an uncertain world.

Its definitely not the money you save, but the skill you show as you are saving it. Your net worth might be wiped out but if you still have the skills your net worth can come back. Personal finance is about the skill and the heart.

This is a great article. It addresses so many issues that end up separating the financially fit and those struggling, no matter the dollar amount.

Money makes you rich, the more you can do with it makes you wealthy.

This is a great article. So many parts of my life improved when I started living more financially responsibly. I’m going to show this to a friend whom I’m encouraging to start a budget.

It’s so true that it’s not really about money. Now that I’ve got a realistic view of my finances, I’m less sure I’ll ever be rich than when I was oblivious, yet I feel much happier about my financial situation because I’m the one who controls it now.

Devon, it’s only about the money in the sense that money is the middle step to get you to the things you want. Money is not your dreams. Money is not your home. Money is not your family.
