Summary

Do you ever feel like, no matter how hard you hustle, you can’t seem to get ahead financially? You’re not alone! In fact, 61% of Americans say they're living paycheck to paycheck. 40% withdrew from their already insufficient 401-Ks just to avoid losing their home. Oh, and speaking of that home, did you know that if you leave it for any real length of time that you run the risk of losing it outright to a squatter?! Yeah, you heard me right – someone else can move into YOUR home! And, once they’re in, you won’t believe what an absolute hassle it is to get them out. Let’s call it “The Hustle and The Hassle”.
