From the Back Cover -- This guide was developed for professionals using Money Habitudes cards with their clients. The cards are a novel, non-threatenin way to discover habits and attitudes, e.e. "habitudes" that affect whether clients will achieve their financial and life goals. Financial professionals use them to quickly understand what motivates the way their clients manage their money. Counselors, therapists and coaches use them to make connections between their clients' relationship with money and their career, personal and business relationships and life goals. This guide provides additional information and handouts to use the cards with individuals, couples and groups and includes charts and key questions for more in-depth discussions. The Money Habitudes guide provides hands-on, user friendly activities that are not time intensive. Clients like manipulating the cards and associate the cards with familiar social activity so they enjoy it, relax and are more open to productive conversations. Since there are no right or wrong answers, no habitude is bad and every habitude can have challenges, clients relax and are able to discuss even difficult money concepts Comments My husband and I had the
first good conversation about money we've had in 34 years. I
never understood why he made the career decisions he did and he always
felt like I was judging him as a failure. This was powerful! My girlfriend and I talked for three hours the night we used these cards. It was a great way to get to know each other a lot better! -- DLS, Richmond, VA We never read the
directions. We just started reading the cards and talked for a couple
of hours. I was surprised at all we had to talk about after all these
years of being married and we thought we understood each other! I don't know about the
Venus/Mars stuff, but we realized that we sure were coming from very
different places when we thought about how to plan for our future
retirement. It's the first time we've talked about money without fighting! -- DJK, Rockville, MD
