Insurance protects what matters most… especially when life comes at you fast. 😅

Health, auto, home, or life coverage keeps one “oops” from costing big $$. 💰

Plan for peace of mind.

If Washington keeps acting like Craig and Smokey’s block, we’re in trouble. I wrote about why D.C. politics feels like Friday—and what Congress needs to learn—in Urban Magazine: urbanmag-online.com/another-frid...

Having a bank account saves you money.

Without one, you may pay extra for cashing checks or payday loans.

A safe account offers security, easier bill payment, and access to savings tools.

Debt doesn’t have to control you.

From credit cards to medical bills, make a plan. Consolidate, automate, and avoid new high-interest debt.

Every payment = progress. #FinancialLiteracy
