Over 90 percent of couples experience some level of tension around money. In fact, money issues are the number one stressor in relationships.

There are, in the United States, a significant and growing number of families who live on less than $2.00 per person, per day. That figure, the World Bank measure of poverty, is hard to imagine in this country - most of us spend more than that before we get to work or school in the morning.
