If you have a lot of money...[/quote]

I know a young woman who several years ago was on her own, struggling with money problems. She wanted to go to graduate school but couldn’t afford it. She started walking dogs to help make ends meet. She went about it intelligently, taking every job that came her way and going out of her way to accommodate her customers. She took some of the money she earned and invested it in a web presence. She expanded her services and over a couple of years because a thriving small business owner. Started graduate school and took on a couple of employees. One of those employees took care of my dog in the fall because the woman who started the business was taking a well deserved post graduation vacation to Asia. She didn’t have parents paying for that trip; she was scrappy and smart and made something out of nothing.

You don’t need “a lot of money” to start taking the steps to improve your financial future.[/quote]

However, you’re talking to people are in the middle of that woman’s story. And you still don’t know if she has 3-6 mo of savings....;)[/quote]
