“I learned that budgeting is super important when setting goals and if you don’t budget then you might not be able to reach those goals.”

“I learned that the cheapest option is not always the best option. It is also very hard to save money for a house, so making wise choices is key.”

“I learned that unexpected things happen in life, you cannot always be prepared for them, and sometimes these things effect your long-term goal.”
