It is not unusual for economic or money talk to be brought up at Thanksgiving dinner. This can lead to heated arguments with family members. Money can be confusing and people may become irrational. Talking about financial plans can lead to family members becoming defensive or making it difficult for you to understand your decision-making.
It is one of your best investments for your financial future. Kiersten (@richandregular), and Julien (@richandregular), have found community to be a powerful tool in their financial future. It allows them to ask questions and receive real-life advice on everything, from debt repayment to wealth creation. They discuss how to build community online and offline, as well as the benefits of expanding your support and social circle.
Although your family may be supportive, their advice is often based on concern for your future. You can get answers solely based on your question and not on past or current life events that your family may take into account. You can also build a community of friends and support that will boost your self-confidence . Julien and Kiersten talk about the pros and cons to joining an online group, the benefits of speaking to people face-to-face and why it is important to be committed to the process.
