Tim Stenovec talks to husband and wife duo Talaat and Tai McNeely about when to bring up finances with your partner and what you need to be teaching your kids about money. The couple founded HisandHerMoney.com after Tai helped Talaat pay off $30,000 in debt! Because of all his debt, Talaat kept his finances hidden from Tai under right before their wedding day...which he says was a terrible idea! He doesn't suggest talking about credit score on the first date, but slowly working it into a conversation before you even get engaged is very important. Tai says you want to attack finances as a team and help each other grow your bank account and credit. Plus, once you're married and have kids the hard work doesn't stop. The McNeelys talk about teaching your kids how to give, spend and save. You can create a reward system for saving or even bring them to the bank and learn the process of depositing money.

Small grocers and convenience stores feel an impact as customers go without SNAP benefits
Some small grocery stores and neighborhood convenience stores are eager for the U.S. government shutdown to end and for their customers to start receiving federal food aid again. Late last month, the Trump administration froze funding for the SNAP benefits that about 42 million Americans use to buy groceries. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says about 74% of the assistance was spent last year at superstores like Walmart and supermarkets like Kroger. Around 14% went to smaller stores that are more accessible to SNAP beneficiaries. A former director of the United Nations World Food Program says SNAP is not only a social safety net for families but a local economic engine that supports neighborhood businesses.
