Oh I would be such the b towards the mutual so called friend. I hate when people are jealous. If they would take all that energy and put it into figuring out why they aren't making the money they think they should or making themselves more marketable..they would never have to worry about what I have and they don't.

my best friend just told me last month about something that still irks me whenever I think about it. apparently a mutual "friend" of ours told her "i don't think you should trust [LVpiggy] too much (obviously she doesn't kno my tpf name, but i get the idea )

of course, my best friend asked why, you know what her reason was?!??!!? "oh, well, she's just not the same as us, you know? i mean - she makes so much more money, she just doesn't see things the same way as we do"

luckily my best friend, being a dedicated career woman herself, was like . . . "EXCUSE ME?!?!?!? she works really hard, thank you very much"

hence, we are one "friend" down . . . thank goodness

Money and sex, THE two big issues in life. I've said it on my blog: your attitude towards money says a lot about who you are and how you live your life. Not talking about material things, but about spiritual things too.

Thanks for pointing this book out! I'll definitely check into it. Right up my alley.
