Money fixes money problems. It doesn’t fix the rest, and people who have it will tell you so.

Money is genuinely good at the job it has: rent, the dentist, the car, not lying awake over a bill. Pretending otherwise is its own kind of luxury. What it cannot supply is company, purpose or a reason to get up, which is why people who have plenty tend to be the first ones to say so.

Take money seriously enough to learn how it works, then notice which of your problems it would not touch. Deal with one of those this week, since nothing you earn later will fix it for you.
