Making Cents

The hidden psychology that helps you build wealth - and why meditating hurts your money

Dr Brad Klontz, co-author of the new book Start Thinking Rich: 21 Harsh Truths to Take You from Broke to Financial Freedom, shares how money beliefs can hold you back. Most of us have been there - you know what you should be doing with money, but you’re not doing it.  Why?  Well there’s a whole bunch of wiring deep in our brains that can trip us up and sabotage us.  That doesn’t mean it’s all a lost cause … it means that you need to take control of your mind, before you truly take control of your money.  LinksFollow Frances Cook on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FrancesCookNZ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/francescooknz/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram </a>and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@francescooknz?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, or join the <a href="https://www.francescook.co.nz/subscribe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Money Memo newsletter</a> for a free weekly money tip in your inbox each week.
