Financial information is the key to change.

Unfortunately, for most of us, basic financial information is not taught in schools. We live in a country that continues to pass out diplomas to people who lack healthy financial skills, creating a society not prepared to handle the financial ups and downs of everyday living. The road to financial freedom is paved with information; join me on my journey.

Beyond "Happily Ever After"

     Once upon a time the divorce rate in America was 2.6 divorces for every thousand marriages. Today the divorce rate in America is more than 50 percent, which means that more than 500 marriages out of a thousand will end in divorce: FIVE HUNDRED! That is our new reality. The new slogan for marriage should be "I Do": Until death, divorce, abandonment, or "I just do not feel like being married anymore," Do Us Part.
In real life, the road to "happily ever after" is not written in stone. The reality is that after a divorce a number of women, with their children in tow, can expect their income level to drop by as much as 50%: plunging them into poverty.  We all think that the death of a spouse, a breakup, or abandonment will not happen to us, - but we cannot all be right!
Even if you are living the fairy tale life you should still...


 

FYI: It is believed that once paired, bald eagles mate for life - we may need to follow their example.
