Hanging with the money crowd by YFA

Looks like TPX is a “bad” group after all…
Before “social networking” became a buzz phrase, she told her clients to “find people who have the money behaviors you want to learn and start hanging out with them.” She suggests, for example, joining an investment club.
The corollary is to be careful around folks who’ll reinforce your bad tendencies. No one’s suggesting that you start dumping friends and family members who spend too much. But it makes sense to avoid going clothes shopping with them.
“It’s like going with alcoholics to a bar,” says money therapist Olivia Mellan, author of Money Harmony. “You’ll be sucked into the group’s norm.”
