About Janna:

I am interested in providing consumer advice for those with questions about money. I have been able to help friends and family who have come to me with questions about their finances over the years. I would like to share my knowlege of  spending and saving, budgeting, credit cards, and other financial concerns. The advice that I give is from experience, either my own or that of friends and family. I look forward to helping anyone with financial concerns.
