Others will agree with you in a group discussion today, but only up to a point. Just because heads are nodding at everything you say doesn’t mean they’re willing to march into battle with you. They just want to vent. They don’t necessarily want do anything about it. Before you assume you have some sort of mutiny on your hands, step back and realize these folks are truly happy to hear someone like you say what’s on your mind.

It’s okay for you to be a little outrageous from time to time, and now might be the time. Besides, there’s nothing more attractive than someone who isn’t afraid to drop the tough exterior and come out of their shell.

If it seems like your loved one’s not paying attention to you, it’s because they aren’t! That’s not because they’ve lost interest. They’re just focused on other things right now. Be understanding about it.

You want nothing more than to get up on your soap box and tell the rest of the world what you think of it. But that won’t get you anywhere. Just give yourself a silent salute for not being a part of the financial problem.
