I have a friend who does a lot of work in his garage. He’s proud of his tools, proud of his equipment and proud that the area is neat and organized. One thing he can’t be proud of, though, is the floor. The bare concrete is stained and discolored, and it looks just plain bad. [...]

You think things are going okay financially, and then it happens: an unexpected car repair, medical bill or other major expense. Or maybe you get laid off and suddenly lose your source of income.
