I have $1,145 dollars on the card with an interest rate of 8.9%. What is the formula to calculate what my finance charge would be on that month? I am horrible at math, when I did it it came out to around $90 and if that is right then I will just take the money out of savings and pay it all off.

How do I finance college with a family to support?

I know there are options to help single moms, single dads, singles, military personel etc, but how do I finance college when I have a reasonable income but the expenses of a family to pay for (daycare, mortgage, health, transportation, education etc)

When I have tried in the past to get loans or scolarships it seems my income is the only thing that is taken into account which is modest at best. There simply isn’t much left over at the end of the month and that’s not including if I’ll make less because I’m in college.
There has to be a way that I’m just ignorant of and I would welcome any thoughts.

Blessings,
