Even while the entire family is struggling to survive, the narcissist is quietly building a back up of life. They skim a little bit off the top of every paycheck and hide it in a secret account. They may have multiple life insurance policies, and when they mature, who gets the money? The narcissist. You may have paid all those premiums, but you get zero. Why? Well, they are the ultimate beneficiary. They get it.
They hoard cash in a safe that you do not have the combination to. They are not building an emergency fund to protect the family if the roof caves in. They’re building a golden parachute exclusively for themselves. They want you and the children trapped in uncertainty, living paycheck to paycheck, while they always have an exit door ready. If things get hard, they know they can survive comfortably, and they do not care if the rest of the family goes down with a ship.
When you look at these seven behaviors, you realize that a narcissist does not view money the way normal people do.
Normal people use money to buy food, create safety, and build a warm life, right? That’s why we earn it, and we build all of those things with the people we love. A narcissist uses money like a heavy chain. They pretend to be broke so you will stop asking for things, but in reality they are hoarding all the resources to make sure you never have the strength to leave.
And that is happening at a systematic level. All the wealth hoarders just look at how they’re shaping the system, and you will see it’s no different than what we are talking about in this interpersonal dynamic—applicable to you.
