Money



We all love it, we all need it, and we all want more and more of it everyday!

The biggest problem that happens with our money when we get it, is that we usually spend it (sometimes all of it). Then we have to work to make up what we lost when we could've added to the numbers we already had.

Everyone's guilty for doing this, so never feel bad or disappointed in yourself about how you manage your finances.

First Banks gives a 5-Tip Money Saving article to help, not only young adults, but college students and young business owners. (There is also some tricks on how you can gain money while your in  school, too).

Tip 1 - You want to make a budget for yourself. As a college student, budget out how much your willing to spend and save for the week. Also think about what your money is going to go towards. If something doesn't meet your budget, and you MUST have it/go to it, then you need to plan out how your going to earn your money back. This same thing can go for those who aren't in school or own a business as well.

Tip 2 - Saving and Investing is your best friend! By making a creative money jar to store a few dollars, you can easily see how big of an impact saving can do for your finances. For people who aren't into actually "saving" cash, just simply open up a savings account. This can be very helpful because some bank accounts will actually charge you to withdraw money from your savings account. Try and use your budget (like we talked about in Tip 1) to plan how much money you're going to put into your savings for the month. When it comes to investing, there are some great apps that can assist you with learning how to invest and managing it.

Acorns
Stash
Clink

- Fundrise

Acrimony (Review)

Hulu has just recently added a popular film to stream, and it's creating quite a topic of many discussions. Acrimony,  Tyler Perry's 2018 Drama film, is filled with bitterness, anger, and like the movie title itself .. Acrimony. The film stars Hollywood Walk of Famer, Taraji P Henson, and co-star, Lyric Brent, in one of Tyler Perry's most eye-opening film.  You probably remember Henson's phenomenal acting in a previous Tyler Perry film, I Can Do Bad All By Myself, from back in 2009. It was only right to have her play the lead role (Melinda Gayle) in another Tyler Perry film.  This film not only tested viewers thoughts during the different scenes that took place, but it also tested the emotions to see how the viewers felt about certain things.  For example, how would you feel if you spent your life with somebody for a long time, just for things to end and the next woman gets everything you were promised? In a man's argument, how would you feel if...
