If you’re someone like me, (and chances you are if you clicked on this title), you’ve struggled financially.
Even if you make a healthy amount of money you just always seem to be running low or coming up short. First of all, don’t be hard on yourself. If no one has ever taught you these things how would you know? It’s not your fault, but it is your responsibility to learn.
