How you view money dictates on how you spend it. I'll give you a real life example. If you know someone that you don't like and let's just say you know of someone named Mary, and Mary is a bit, you know, the rest of the word. And Mary comes and asks you for something and she's being all nice, you're going to start to think, well, what is she up to? What is she trying to get from me? But if you think that Mary is really, really nice and she's a sweet person, she comes up to you and asks for some help, you're going to think, oh my gosh, she needs some help. So your beliefs around Mary will dictate on how you treat Mary. But that's the same thing with money. If you believe money is, it comes and goes, you make it, you spend it, you earn it, it's in and out, then you will never have money and you will never keep money. But if you believe that money is an employee, meaning that if you see that every dollar you earn is like an employee, and that means the role of employee in your money making mindset is to generate more money for you and work for you, then you will have an abundant money because then you'll have this investor mindset. If you treat every dollar you ear save every dollar you earn and treat them as an employee, you will grow your money because you will think, how do I make this money work for me?
