Listen "Never Tell People How Much Money You Have"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s Startup Therapy Podcast, Wil and Ryan talk about the disadvantages of having wealth. People are drawn to Founders who are successful, who have money to spare. Most of the time, people, including family, expect you to settle their financial issues just because you have the money. It reaches a point where you’re expected to spend your money and not expect anything in return. The toxicity is just too much when it happens too often.Sign up for the Startups Newsletterhttps://www.startups.com/newsletterResources:Startup Therapy Podcasthttps://www.startups.com/beginWhat to Listen For00:00 Intro00:26 Relationships and wealth05:38 When people is all about wanting something from you07:51 Some family members expect more from you13:38 Founders are being judged by their wealth16:41 Once you give something, you’re expected to give more19:10 People tend to want to have your money too23:24 Either way, you’ll be judged by how much cash you have26:32 Assumptions are made when you have the means and resources29:45 People with money can’t just give away what they have33:29 The calls are now about financial matters, no more sincere connections36:31 Everyone just wants to take from you but not willing to give back
