there’s a book I read a decade or two ago, cannot remember, called MONEY AND THE MEANING OF LIFE, by jacob needleman i think, a philosopher. maybe i’ll take another look at it.
my wife doesn’t mess around financially, or any other way. She is a straightshooter. I took a long time for me to convince her that the concept of strategic default was even possiblemong homeowners. She is, like my mom, extremely honest and tolerates no financial gamesmanship.
