Have you ever heard the phrase, “money mindset?” If you think it’s just some goofy phrase, you’re partially right, but it actually does make sense when you think about it.

In all honesty, most people have some kind of negative thoughts or ideas about money, whether or not you have a lot or a little.

If you’re rich, then you’re just a rich snob, right? If you have little then you’re just bad with money, right?

It sounds like a funny concept, but if you’re truly honest with yourself about your money mindset (i.e. the feelings you associate with money), are they mostly positive, or negative?

This isn’t a “gotcha” moment. The truth is, most of us could probably improve our money mindset and be far better off for it.

The FIRE movement, or Financial Independence, Retire Early, is a financial movement that encourages people to save and invest as much of their income as possible. The idea, of course, is to retire early and/or achieve financial freedom.
