Money

No one likes to talk about money. The very word is a little cringy. We prefer to talk about wealth, finances, the budget. These are more palatable. The same thing applies to the term fund-raising. People tend to tune out a little bit when it comes up in conversation. Most of us already have causes that we give to, and speaking for myself, very little left over to give to more. Sure, I could be more generous. I could cut back on subscriptions, and eating out, and a few other things that aren’t necessary, but at the end of the day, you can’t get blood out of a turnip. That’s how I feel at least. So it’s not something that I particularly like to do. It makes me uncomfortable. But it’s part of my job. I don’t have a choice. Of course, you have a choice also. You can just stop listening, and I wouldn’t blame you if you did. I wouldn’t know any different. However, if you do decide to keep listening, I can promise you that there is more to this episode than just Brandon and I talking about how we’re trying to raise another $900,000 dollars to pay for Whetstone’s expansion. There is a lot more to this topic than meets the eye. So please join us this week, on A Time to Sharpen, as we talk about “Money.”
