With gas prices on the rise, you might think a summer trip will cost more than you can afford this year. But if you’re willing to do a little homework and planning, you’ll find that most any trip can be affordable.
Your grandmother may have called it a rainy-day fund. Financial professionals typically call it a cash reserve or emergency fund. Whatever its name, the purpose is the same: having some money set aside for when the unexpected happens so that you don’t have to sell things or go in debt to deal with it. And while the concept is fairly simple, there’s more here than meets the eye, starting with what is meant by “some money” and “set aside.”
Dear, Field Problems:
I keep hearing about all of these financial benefits that we should be taking advantage of while my husband is deployed, but I haven’t got a clue where to find out more information on what they are. Can you help?

Dear, Field Problems:
I’m desperately writing hoping you might have a clue about what to do. My sister, whose husband is in the military, just finished her first semester of school. Last semester she qualified for financial aid, and next semester she doesn’t, even though there is no way they can afford it. I am wondering if there are scholarships or grants targeted towards military spouses. She gets a partial scholarship from the school, and she’s really smart, but there is no way she can return in the fall if she doesn’t find help paying for it.
