I’m not a wealthy person, and given my college major and career plans, I don’t think I’m going to be super wealthy in the future. That’s okay with me, and I plan to live pretty frugally and carefully to ensure that I can be comfortable and as financially secure as possible for as long as … Read more
I could use some guidance. I’m a freshman in college studying civil engineering. Two classes this semester are way more difficult than I expected them to be. I probably shouldn’t have registered for both this semester, but there’s no going back now since add/drop period is over. One class is focused strictly on emerging trends … Read more
I could use some guidance. I’m a college senior who’s graduating at the end of May, with a degree in sociology. I already have a job lined up in Sacramento, which means I’m planning to move there and start my life as a full-fledged adult. I was lucky enough not to need a car during … Read more
I’m graduating soon, and I’m already worried about my finances. One thing that I keep thinking about is the fact that I have some big expenses coming up that are going to be unavoidable. If I go where I expect to for work, I need to rent a place to live, buy a car, and … Read more
My childhood home is in rough shape. While I’ve been away at college, my parents have been dealing with flooding problems in the basement. It’s not a burst pipe or anything; the water comes in from outside, somehow. It apparently ruined a bunch of our stuff, and could even cause structural issues in our house, … Read more

I’m not sure I understand everything that’s going on with it, but I have to say that I find it kind of fishy that Amazon can afford to deliver stuff to me so cheaply. My parents have Amazon Prime, … Read more
I have a friend who swears by supplements. You know, the “natural supplements” and other over-the-counter pills and powders and whatnot that are supposed to make you feel better or sleep better or gain more muscle or… whatever. I’m a little skeptical; however, my friend is convinced. I’m not sure how to dissuade her from … Read more
I’m fat, and I’m sick of the way it makes me feel. I feel tired and worn-out, almost like I’m sick. I can’t run far or do a lot of physical activity. I hate the way I look. Enough is enough, so I’ve decided that I’m going to change the way I eat and get … Read more
For most of my life, I was one of “those people” who could eat whatever the heck they wanted and never gain weight. It was awesome! However, it was also not destined to last forever. The other day, I noticed that I was looking a little chubbier than usual. I managed to put off my … Read more
I’ve enjoyed my college education immensely, and I wouldn’t trade the years I’ve had here for the world. But now that I’m headed toward graduation, I can’t help but feel that I’m ready to get out of here and get to work! Weirdly, though, I feel as if I’m the only one: a ton of … Read more
