Bad Council

I’m Miriam Neff and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan with Wise Women Managing Money.

M Financial transitions are usually scary.  Can we survive?  Will we be content?  Will we be taken advantage of?  Marriage, tragic divorce, job loss, death of your spouse; these are big transitions. 

V Those fears open the doors to bad council.  Don’t listen to people who promise easy solutions.  Don’t believe your new circumstance will be devastating.  God promises that we can be content with less.  The Bible is full of wise council on how to budget our money. Are you listening to a person who demonstrates successful financial accountability?

M Does that person have your best interest at heart, or a personal agenda? Ungrounded fears make you vulnerable.  Resist bad council.  Listen to many who are wise.
