Teach Me How To Feel Okay About My Income

Tell us if this has happened to you: your friends invite you to go away on vacation. Cruise tickets? $1,500. You don’t want them to think you don’t have the money to pay for it, so you charge it on your credit card and worry about it later . Or maybe you hear a rumor that your colleague is making more money than you for the same job. You freak out and complain to your boss. Then you realize that maybe, that wasn’t the best strategy to get what you want. Talking about our money and how much we make can be seriously awkward. It brings up all kinds of issues because, well, there’s no handbook for how to have tough financial conversation with friends, coworkers, and even our families . On this episode of Teach Me How to Money, Lindsey Stanberry*, the work and money editor of Refinery29 and author of Money Diaries: Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know About Your Finances... and Everyone Else's, tells how to stop feeling embarrassed about our salaries and start being real (upfront about our finances).
