    Default New and ready to learn

    Hi, I am a newbie and ready to learn how to live below my means. I am a single parent to a 14yr old teenager. I am struggling to make ends meet, my rent is high and so is my car note. I am having trouble focusing on my day to day life because I have so many bills and not enough money. I work two jobs! Just to get by. I hope I can learn a trick or two here and get myself together.
