Making financial decisions, and feeling confident about them, is no easy task. The decisions we make for our money can have long term effects on our financial well-being. And that can be a terrifying realization.

Decisions like: How much mortgage can I afford?  Is this the best price I can get on airfare?  How much should I be saving?  Do I invest my savings?  What do I invest in?  Can I quit my job?  Do I have enough money to retire? These are all tough decisions, and it’s easy to stress out about making the “right” choice.
