write a letter to money

Explanation:

On the days that you really don't know what to say to money, just start your letter by saying, "I really don't know what to say to you right now, money." Then continue on with how you feel or how money is making you feel today or some money frustration that came up today.

Answer:

Dear Money,

I don’t know where to start with you. You’ve basically been a thorn in my side my entire life, and even though I would love to blame you for that I can’t. The way I’ve treated you has been my fault. I haven’t taken care of you the way I should have and now I’m paying for it. I suppose what I feel is embarrassment. I’m 49-years-old, and I still don’t feel as if I do a very good job with you.

I’ve allowed you to build up debt and have not done a very good job of paying it off so that I can have a fresh start with you. I’ve done the minimum payments and haven’t made a dent. I get frustrated and down and so I spend more of you to try to make myself feel better. All I end up with is more regret and frustration.

I think what it boils down to is that I don’t think I deserve you, and I look at you in a negative way instead of a positive way. I’m working on changing that. I started a countdown to freedom which will be May 2018. In just over a year, I will be free from a huge loan, paying my mom back, and my credit card will be paid off. I know that any type of debt is not good debt, but the rest is manageable in the big picture.

I am grateful for the money I do earn and I see myself with even more earning potential, but I need to start with baby steps and this is a good beginning. Thanks for listening, Money. I look forward to changing my relationship with you!

Sincerely,

Christine

I know writing a letter is just a start and I’m making plans to put those thoughts into action. I’ve put together an plan to paying off the debt I described above in one year. I’ve already paid off one smaller loan and for half our taxes from last year. Just having those two off my plate is a step in the right direction, and I will continue to feel better about money as I change my beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and actions.
