Hello from New Jersey
Hi everyone!!! I am new at this and confused! I see that people are saving money and in great financial situations well I have some learning to do!
I am married with 4 year old twins and a small dog. We live in a very expensive state and right now our credit is a mess....we live pay check to paycheck and need help big time!
If anyone can direct me on how to start learning on this forum I would greatly appreciate it!!!
Thank you!
