Mel Abraham recalls thinking a bathroom light was a ghost until his father turned it on. He uses this to argue that money fears are the same: they loom in darkness, but confronting them reveals they're manageable, not supernatural obstacles.
What we would see is this light on the floor, and we thought it was a ghost. It didn't happen during the day, but at night the ghost would come out. And so if I had to go to go see my brother down the hall, you know, and I wanted to go, I got to pass the ghost. So I literally like Olympic level sprinting because I didn't want the ghost to catch me, and I run. And when Jeff wanted to come and see me, he did the same thing. And all of a sudden, my dad, he's go, "What are you guys doing?" And we're going, "Dad, the ghost, the ghost, the ghost is going to get us." And he says, "What ghost in the bed?" In the bathroom, there's a ghost. Do you see him? He's in the bathroom. He's looking at us. And he walks in the bathroom and he flips the light on and the ghost is gone. And I go, how many of us do that with our money? How many of us do that because we've been told that it's hard to make money and your future depends on it? I've got bills to pay. I've got all these things. How many of you do that? Well, the idea here is— yeah, I see the hands up. The idea here is to flip the light on because it's not a ghost.
