Why money management is important to your life?
One of the biggest steps toward leading an independent life is financial independence. This means taking control of your money, of course, the money that you earn and the money that you spend.
Money is necessary to live and live well in our society, but you don't need a lot of money to be independent, successful, and happy. You do need to know how to manage the money you have and make it work for you. 5
Steve Buccis, Bankrates’ debt adviser and president of Money Management International Final Education Foundations, said:
"People need to have a plan for their money, if you don't have a plan and the other person does have a plan, they're
going to win because they have the discipline, goal and desire and you're
just sort of playing by ear."

Human Behavior toward money
A lot of people have a different behavior toward money. There are some that are blind
about it. They think that there isn’t nothing more important than be rich. Also, they can
do or they are willing to do anything for having it. That´s why there are burglars. They pass
all their lives trying to have everything they want. But there are another type of people that
even they are poor. They earn money, but in an honestly way. They get up early and work for
having money and maintain their families.
However, the money can change the morality of a person. A clear example of it is Alfonso
Portillo when he stole a lot of money of the country. He has a bad reputation, because for him
money was more important than be a good president for guatemalans.
