Deep dives
Understanding Debt as a Neutral Tool
Debt is fundamentally described as buying money, meaning it's a tool for gaining access to funds to purchase items or services you currently cannot afford. The discussion challenges the traditional categorization of debt into 'good' or 'bad,' arguing that this binary approach is unhelpful and often leads to unnecessary stress. Instead, debt is framed as a neutral circumstance that doesn't hold inherent moral value; it's the way individuals perceive and react to debt that generates emotional consequences. By recognizing debt's neutrality, people can regain control over how it affects their lives and view it as a strategic tool rather than a burden.
