Overweight = In debt?

Food and finances. It’s amazing to me how similar our relationship to money is to our bodies and food. I see debt as the same as overweight. Income is our exercise/energy expending; spending is our diet/nutrition.

This may seem a bit abstract (as will a lot of the things we’re going to explore here), but think about it. What we want is to be thin and healthy; we also want to be financially healthy. Financial health comes from having a good income of money and keeping our expenditures below what comes in. “Being in good shape” comes from getting enough exercise and eating enough healthy food. if you eat/spend more than you should, your “health” suffers. If you don’t exercise (earn) enough, your health suffers. You have to “work” in some way to either burn calories or bring in income. And you have to keep the other end (eating and expenses) in balance too.
