How would money make you more assertive? You can't buy assertiveness.
- ahartmetz 6y agoIt makes some sense if you look at money as "that's how the points are counted". Which I assume is a strong reason why many rich people want to get richer. But then you can't necessarily see how much money people own, only how much they spend...
- cryptica 6y agoIf others know that you have money, they're more likely to listen to you. But even if they don't know, money gives you an outward confidence boost because other people in your life who do know that you have money treat you better on average and they respond better to your assertions so this gives you more confidence to assert yourself to new people too and it becomes self-fulfilling.
