People like money. Making it, having it, and spending it can be a lot of fun. Who doesn’t like lavish vacations and dinners at fancy restaurants?
The problem is that people don’t like thinking about money. 85% of Americans are occasionally stressed about money. 30% of Americans state that their financial situation is a constant source of stress.
Many essentials like rent and groceries cost more than ever, and technological advances have made devices like computers and smartphones a requirement to participate in modern society. Student loans have also ballooned in size. The average borrower leaves college with more than $37,000 in debt. Despite these facts, inflation-adjusted household earnings for the bottom 60% of Americans haven’t changed much in the past fifty years. Add in how complicated the financial world can be, and it’s no wonder that so many people worry about money.
