Summary

The powerful attractions that most of us feel towards both physical intimacy and money are really no more than the two components of the force of attraction.  Both the pleasure of sensual fulfillment and the pleasure of acquiring money are attained only with the participation of another person.   Do you know anyone who doesn’t want to have more money? Do you know anyone who doesn’t want to have a joyous marriage and fulfilling family life?  There may be one or two outliers, but almost everyone we know, and we bet this is true for you as well, would like more income and great relationships. Just like making delicious omelets or performing delicate brain surgery, knowing exactly what you’re doing makes a successful outcome more likely.  And key to that is wrapping yourself around the shocking idea that male-female relationships and money are really just two sides of the same coin. How the Obama years indoctrinated millions of good people with bad ideas and infected them with destructive life strategies from which escape is almost impossible.  But there is one trapdoor.   In seeking marriage and money, most of us tend to separate the searches. We might go to the business section of the bookstore for one and the relationship section for the other. When the two do intersect, they are often at odds with each other. Will getting married interfere with my work? Will my work make my spouse resentful? Unify, resolve and connect.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
