Our culture sends us two very conflicting messages about money. The first, a message that tells us money is everything. Celebrity culture, the rich and famous, Wall Street greediness, the twinge of jealousy we feel when we see a house bigger than ours, a car newer than our car. Then, there’s the completely opposite message, the one that treats wealth – and the wealthy – with suspicion, that works hard to teach us not to envy them, to see the limitations that wealth has and the potential trouble it can cause.
