Financial Behavior

Enlarge image

Paying bills, making purchases and balancing a checkbook all seem like straight forward actions with money. But a person's behavior toward money and wealth and how they integrate it into their lives is a psychological and sociological issue as well.

Some common issues the cash money crew discuss include the conflicts that arise when it comes to money and how someone's upbringing affects their beliefs on money later in life. Different attitudes discussed include financial behavior between generations, what is money avoidance and money worship and how debt and loans affect these attitudes.
