Don't Borrow Money for Liabilities

If you've ever heard of the saying "live below your means" I'd like you to know that I am a big believer of it and should I ever have the need to borrow money, for example a car, I'm living above my means.

However, it doesn't mean that you won't get to enjoy life. It just means that if you want to enjoy your life while also ridding of your debts, we must temporarily allow ourselves to live with what we can afford.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
