Episode 4049: Vekevia Tillman-Jones explores how generous people can continue making a difference without sacrificing their own financial security.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.financialfinesse.com/2018/09/06/ways-to-help-others-without-hurting-your-own-finances/ Quotes to ponder: "Sometimes all a person really needs is a caring friend to empower them to get on their feet and hold them accountable for taking the steps to helping themselves." "Helping others and giving back can bring great joy and a sense of purpose, so keep that up but remember to make sure you are financially sound first." "If you typically give cash donations or pay people’s bills for them, don’t forget that giving your time can be just as beneficial as giving actual cash."
