Short YouTube advice clip (Stephen Scoggins) in which two speakers discuss boundary-setting around money with friends and family. Core messages: friends and family are not entitled to your earnings; avoid giving money to friends/family with expectations; teach financial responsibility rather than continually funding poor money habits; personal anecdote about changing a poverty mindset.
Friends and family.
This is important.
Your friends and family are not entitled to your earnings.
The more successful you'll be, the more.
People will come out of the woodwork that will try.
To entice you that.
You somehow.
Owe them something.
This was a problem for me for a long time because my father would use the term family helps family. I've discovered.
That family doesn't help family if family is always going broke and.
They'Re using my resources to go broke.
Continually on a regular basis.
So what I began doing instead is I began trying to teach my father.
And my family members, hey, this is how I earn. This is how you keep it. You can earn a lot of money, but if you're not keeping any of it, you're not helping yourself.
I've had to change a poverty mindset of behavior inside.
Myself because I grew up in an environment where, again, money was not handled properly.
But they're not entitled to your earnings, no matter how guilty they make you.
Feel, no matter.
How big their medical bill is or how junky their car is or whatever.
