For those of you new to Free Money Finance, I post on The Bible and Money every Sunday. Here's why.
Here's an interesting verse from Proverbs 13:20:
He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.
Let me put a personal finance spin on this:
He who associates with and listens to those who are doing well financially becomes wealthy. But someone who follows the advice of those who can't handle their money is destined for the poor house.
Ok, so I'm not a wordsmith (but you already knew that, didn't you?), but you get the idea. If you hang around people who follow the solid financial principles that can make you wealthy, then it's likely those principles will rub off on you and you'll do well too. But if you associate with people who continually make bad money mistakes, you'll probably do the same -- and thus kill your finances.
I'm not talking about having only friends who have it all together financially. But I am saying that it's wise to have friends, on average, who are doing fairly well or at least making good financial choices. And I'm not saying the friends have to be experts on everything. But I learn something from almost all of my friends -- how to save money from one, how to manage retirement from another, how to network for another, and so on.
If I spent most of my time with people who shopped for enjoyment, I'd probably want to do the same. If my friends spent every penny they had on "stuff" to fill up their houses, I'd probably follow suit. And if my friends all had boats and cottages, it probably wouldn't be long before I needed one (or both) too.
Let's face it, you're influenced by who you hang out with. So who do you want influencing you?
I once heard a speaker say that the person you'll be in five years will be determined by the people you know and the books you read. So choose your friends (and your books) wisely!!!

Money is really an interesting thing, literally everyone wants to have a lot of it, yet very few are willing to do what it takes to get a lot of money. The old adage is true, “everyone wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.” In order to become very wealthy, there are a number of things you have to do, and one of them is read. In his book, The Millionaire Next Door, Thomas Stanley conducted a study of millionaires and found that the average millionaire reads one non-fiction book a month. If you want to get on top of your finances and become financially fit, you might consider reading these five personal finance books.
5. The Richest Man in Babylon - Ancient Babylonia was considered to be one of the wealthiest countries which ever existed. It was a center for commerce and free trade. Author George S. Clason uses the setting of Babylon to present a number of parables about personal finance and give you a fundamental footing in personal finance and what habits will make you wealthy and which will not.
4. Rich Dad Poor Dad - Author, Robert Kiyosaki tells the story of his financially unsound father and his neighbor who never graduated high-school, but was a multimillionaire. In the book, He compares his father to the wealthy father and compared how each of them handles their personal finances. The book gives a very interesting and stark contrast as to how the wealthy handle their finances compared to that of the lower and middle class.
3. Spend Your Way to Wealth - This book takes a “Real world” approach to personal finance and shows people how they can get what they want out of life by being savvy consumers. Author Mike Schiano puts a number of tips to help people become better consumers and make smart purchases throughout the book.
2. The Millionaire Next Door - Thomas Stanley conducted a study of millionaires and the results of the study were placed in his book, The Millionaire Next Door. He discovered that millionaires on average do not live lavish lifestyles, rather work hard, save money, and do a number of things that the average person does not. This is a must read for anyone wishing to become wealthy.
1. The Total Money Makeover - I’m not sure what it is about this book, but it fires you up to be intentional about your money, and motivates you to become better with money. Financial Counselor, Dave Ramsey, offers his common sense wisdom and proven financial plan to help you set financial goals, pay off debt, and build wealth. It is an absolute must read for anyone hoping to keep hold of their finances.
