          No matter how old you are, you should never stop learning.

         Hey All, today I have a special guest feature from Finance G.Y.L.T. (Getting Your Life Together). As a part of my blog, I host a segment called the Bounce Back . The point is to show that we all make mistakes that hurt us financially but instead of giving up or accepting it as is, you can take action and Bounce Back!
