The link between money and faeces, according to Freud


According to Freudian psychoanalytic and psychosexual theory of human psychological evolution there was a strong relation between faeces and money. Individuals who as children had more pleasure retaining their faeces using their anal sphincter are more probable to be miser adults, whereas children who had more pleasure expelling their faecal excrements, would more probably be waster adults. This happens mainly in the so called anal phase, the second stage of Freudian psychosexual development, between around 2 and 4 years old.
