Countering budget culture is a tall order

It needs:

• Getting comfortable not knowing the “right” answers.
• Changing how you talk about money and how you use money.
• Pay transparency — with your friends, communities and colleagues, and in job descriptions.
• Seeing and acknowledging your privilege.
• Rethinking how we compensate for all labour.
• Framing taxes as sharing privilege, not impeding personal wealth.
• Admitting net worth is an imaginary number.
• Creatively supporting people with financial needs and protecting them from the tyranny of credit reports.
• Reckoning with the fact that the dream of homeownership relies on hoarding stolen wealth.
