Practical Perspectives: Key financial issues for you and your family – Solid family budget means less drama

Description

Abstract: This month’s “Practical Perspectives” introduces Kyle and Charlene. This married couple with three kids was tired of the drama — not of family life, but of unexpected expenses and anxiety over failing at their financial goals. So they sat down with their financial advisor, who explained that a solid budget encompassing both short- and long-term objectives could help them feel much better.
