The 7 Financial Truths That Proved To Be Lies
Have you ever found yourself tangled in financial confusion, believing that more money automatically means more financial security? You’re not alone. Many women, including myself, have fallen into this trap, thinking that simply earning a higher income would solve our financial problems. However, I’ve learned that many of the truths we hold about money are, in fact, misconceptions that can hold us back from true financial success.
Here are 7 financial myths I debunked on my journey to financial clarity:
1. "I Don’t Make Enough Money"
The belief that you don’t make enough money to improve your financial situation is a common one. I used to think this way too, but the truth is, it’s not just about how much you earn—it's about how you manage and invest what you have. Learning where to put your money and how to invest wisely is far more crucial than the size of your paycheck.
2. "I Need to Make More Money to Become Wealthy"
It’s a common misconception that you need a huge income to build wealth. In reality, it’s not about the amount you earn, but about making smart financial decisions and investments. Ronald Reid, who worked as a janitor, became a millionaire by investing wisely, showing that it's more about strategy than salary.
3. "I’m Fine Financially Even If I Don’t Understand Money"
I used to avoid dealing with finances, convincing myself everything was fine. However, pretending that you understand your financial situation when you don’t can lead to bigger issues down the road. It’s essential to educate yourself and seek help if needed.
4. "If I Ignore My Bills, They Will Go Away"
Ignoring financial issues doesn’t make them disappear—it only makes them worse. I learned this the hard way. Bills pile up and can lead to stress and debt. Facing your financial challenges head-on is crucial for resolving them effectively.
5. "Living a Champagne Lifestyle on a Beer Budget"
Keeping up appearances while not managing your money responsibly is a recipe for disaster. I found myself living beyond my means, which led to financial strain. It's important to align your lifestyle with your financial reality.
6. "I’ll Never Be Wealthy"
This mindset can be incredibly limiting. I used to think that my humble beginnings meant wealth was out of reach, but the truth is, the problems you solve and the value you create can significantly impact your financial future. Wealth is achievable with the right mindset and strategies.
7. "I’m Not Smart Enough to Handle Money"
Feeling unworthy or not smart enough can be paralyzing, but it’s important to remember that financial success isn’t about being a genius. It’s about learning, focusing, and taking action. If I can do it, so can you.
Breaking Free from Scarcity Mindset
Too often, we plan around scarcity—social security, pensions, and minimal survival. It’s time to shift to planning for abundance. Do you plan for financial plenty, or do you focus on not having enough? It’s about changing your mindset from survival mode to abundance mode.
Creating a New Financial Identity
Changing your financial situation requires a change in belief. Start by creating a new financial identity, where money works for you, not against you. The 90-day financial blueprint I developed can help guide you in creating a financial system that works for you.
The Importance of Strategic Investing
Successful investing is about having a system. There are no bad investments, only bad investors. If real estate isn’t feasible for you right now, explore other avenues. Procrastination, inflation, and taxes are all part of the financial landscape that requires strategic planning.
