Why don't people like to talk about money ? | Episode 1

Do you ever wonder why people don’t like to talk about money? Can you openly talk about how much you make ? Are you comfortable within your peer group to even bring up the topic about money ? 


In today’s episode, I explore the reasons why I believe people don’t like to talk about the subject of money. They come from my experiences talking with people and also from my research of diving into the topic of personal finance over the last 4-5 years.  


The topics I cover in this episode are:



  • People being ashamed about their financial situation [3:05]



  • People not really knowing about personal finance [5:40]



Near the end of the episode, I also talk about why people don’t try and self educate themselves about money.
