  • 2 Quotes To Help You Understand & Challenge Fear
    By: Steve M Nash | - Where does fear come from?

    Seriously, where do we develop our list of fears that seem to plague each and every one of us? Was there a 2-for-1 sale on at the nearby supermarket? Was it fashionable to be fearful back in the day, when we were growing up? Or did our parents simply give us their "hand-me-downs", share their fears with us out of love and kindness (and complete and utter ignorance - oops!)?

    Does it even matter where our fears come from, actually? Or is it more ...

  • Can Your Past Influence Your Present Money Habits?
    By: Cherryl Hanson-Simpson | - Your article about coping with parents money problems made me think about the bad money habits that I picked up from my father. My parents had different attitudes about money - my mother was a saver but my father spent all he had. I adored Dad and I wanted to be just like him; so I never saved and gave money away just like he did. I now see where this has hurt me because I have no money. I think people need to be aware of how their parents can influence their attitudes about money.
