George Kamel and Jade Warshaw answer your questions and discuss:


My husband is cheating on me and hiding his credit card debt

How do I budget for a high maintenance girlfriend?

My car payment is $955 a month, should I sell the car?

How do we navigate rising living expenses?

My hospital bill went to collections but it was more than what I agreed on when I went to the hospital, what should I do?

I have $164,000 of student loan debt, should I pursue public loan forgiveness?

We have $100,000 in cash sitting in a safe, is this a good idea?
