Self-Help Money
Do you overspend? Undersave? Keep secrets about money from a
spouse or family member? Are you anxious about dealing with
your finances? If so, you are not alone. Let's face it–just
about all of have complicated, if not downright
dysfunctional, relationships with money.
As Drs.
Brad and Ted Klontz, a father and son team of pioneers in
the emerging field of financial psychology explain, our
disordered relationships with money aren’t our fault. They
don’t stem from a lack of knowledge or a failure of will.
Instead, they are a product of subconscious beliefs and
thought patterns, rooted in our childhoods, that are so
deeply ingrained in us, they shape the way we deal with
money our entire adult lives. But we are not powerless. By
looking deep into ourselves and our pasts, we can learn to
recognize these negative and self-defeating patterns of
thinking, and replace them with better, healthier ones.
Drawing on their decades of experience helping
patients resolve their troubling issues with money, the
Klontzes and describe the twelve most common “money
disorders” - like financial infidelity, money avoidance,
compulsive shopping, financial enabling, and more — and
explain how we can learn to identify them, understand their
root causes, and ultimately overcome them.
So
whether you want to learn how to make better financial
decision, have more open communication with your spouse or
kids about the family finances, or simply be better equipped
to deal with the challenges of these tough economic times,
this book will help you repair your dysfunctional
relationship with money and live a healthier financial life.
