You're doing everything right. So why does it feel like you're failing?
You work hard. You love your kids. You pay your bills (most of them, most of the time). But somehow, you're always one unexpected expense away from disaster.
Rent takes half your paycheck. Childcare costs more than you earn some weeks. Your ex doesn't pay child support or doesn't pay enough. And every financial expert says just save 20% of your income like you have 20% left after keeping your kids fed and housed.
