Interview with Sonya Lutter
Bridging the gap between therapy, counselling, coaching and financial planning.
What is at the root of our bad money making decisions?
We act how others think we should – often in conflict with our own values.
Inner conflict and psychological stress
In fight or flight mode blood is not pumping through our brain to aid thinking – when stressed we are protecting ourselves in the moment, not thinking long term.
The disconnect between what we do, due to how we perceive others think we should act, versus acting on our own personal values.
Why it’s hard to be content with what you have
Your friends friends have more impact on your happiness than a salary increase. So pay attention to how your friends make you react.
Happiness doesn’t just happen, it takes effort
How joint bank accounts lead to better relationships – talking about money together
Exercise for couples – tell your partner about your earliest money memory
Suggestions for financial advisors to help make an impact in their clients lives
Conclusions from the guys
Get past superficial thoughts and get deeper understanding of your core values
Another exercise for couples
- talk about your values individually
- compare each others values to find common ground and outliers
- compare common ground with current spending
