Your Money

No one expects to run out of money, and certainly no plans to. Nevertheless, there are some sneaky little costs (and some not so little) that creep into everyday spending. Be aware of them.

This article not only highlights 14 key signs of unplanned spending but also the quick fix to get back on track. As a practice, these are things we always try to plan for ahead of time at PWM. But if anything is causing more worry than it should, let's schedule some time to talk about it.

Your Life

Like going to the dentist, going to an auto repair shop causes stress in many people. It’s not physical pain (or maybe it can be) but monetary pain in paying with little awareness or knowledge of what is being repaired. Worse yet, shops now recommend repairs, so it makes it seem like you are part of the process, but most are still totally clueless on whether they are paying for something unnecessary (like early maintenance) or overpaying for parts and repairs. Sometimes, I think I need to take a course on car repairs to be fully armed with information. However, since that is not possible for most, like me, here is a list that can help you find the right repair shop. Another tip to add to the list is to get recommendations from friends and family.
