    1. Should I pay off debt or save?
    2. What order should I pay off my debts?
    3. How can I save more money?
    4. Where should I invest my money?

    * Despite the high cost of living, it remains very popular.
    * Why should I pay for my daughter's education when she already knows everything?
    * There are no shortcuts to anywhere worth going.

      What type of life insurance should I get? This one comes up from time to time.

        "What should I do with this huge amount of money I just fell into?" I always want to tell them to send it to me.

          - "Can I afford XXXXX?" (house, car, trip into space, whatever)
          - "Can you explain XXXXXXX financial concept to me?"
          - "How are we doing?" or "Can you review my financial situation?"
          - "Is now a good/bad time to invest in XXXXXXXX?"
          - "How much do you/should I spend on XXXXXXX?"
          - "How do I create/stick to a budget?"
          - Emergency funds ...... What is it? How much should I have? Where should I keep it? When should I tap it?
          - Questions about balance in life, mostly with regard to saving vs. spending.

          It's surprising to go through some of the older threads and see just how often topics like this really are repeated over & over. Life lesson: Your situation is NOT special or exceptionally unique -- everyone has the same issues, concerns, and questions. So why not ask for some help?

            I see a lot of questions dealing with financing. Cars, and houses are the most common.

            What order to pay off debts is another big one.
