Money, Sex, Politics and Religion are topics we have all been taught not to talk about in polite company, and with dire consequences. While we might have become a bit too comfortable talking about politics we still have trouble talking about money. Disagreements over money are still seen as a leading cause of divorce. Who hasn’t been in a fight over money with a spouse or partner?
This needs to change! During this webinar, Carl Richards with share a few ideas about what we can do to stop fighting about money.
This discussion will include topics like:
-
why otherwise incredibly successful people often find money so emotional
-
how to avoid those fights that seems to come from no where
-
where to talk about money (not in the bedroom), and how to automate this process.
