45. Creating a Family Money Mission Statement
Here’s this week’s letter:
I’ve been taking a more active role in managing my money and my family’s money and I want to look for ways for us to all get on the same page. My partner, I think, just wants to make as much money as possible. For me, it’s more than just growing our money, I also care a lot about how we make the money and how we show up in the world. Our kid, honestly, I don’t think he’s ever thought about money. For his birthday he gets money but he tends to throw it aside honestly. I would like for us to show up better as a family when it comes to our money. Not sure if my question makes sense, but I’m looking for any suggestions on how we can step up as a family who uses its money intentionally to reflect what we think is important.
