You Can't Change People

"I lived a life of poor financial decisions all the way through college and into my mid-20s. I racked up college debt to the tune of over $30,000 before ultimately leaving college due to having an unclear idea on what exactly I wanted to do with my life while simultaneously dealing with the death of my mother during my junior year. I blew an inheritance of over $60,000 by living a middle-class life without the middle-class income to support it... What changed? I wanted more out of my life; more control, more freedom, more time." - DividendMantra.com
