FUN FREE THINGS TO DO WITH YOUR KIDS
Being a parent is often a tough job. It is a challenge to be creative and entertain our kids, especially without a lot of money. It can be costly to go do fun things with children but it does not have to be.

While the world is rapidly changing, we are left with so many questions. What will the future hold? Will we be able to afford to pay our bills? Can we make rent next month? Will our job still be here tomorrow? These times we are living in are very uncertain and they can bring with them a lot of anxious feelings.

Looking to make a change in your financial life? Let me tell you what actually worked for me.
For years I struggled to stabilize my financial life. I spent countless hours working just to put that money towards my bills.
At the time I felt like I never could seem to get anywhere. I never had a savings account and never had enough money left each week to even begin to save.

I read finance books aimed at peo ..read more

If you answered yes let’s go ahead and get started. Before we get started I want to share just a bit of my story.
My financial story

I had no joy in these days because my focus was always on me and what I wanted and never on the blessings ..read more
