Investing time in your kids? Smart.
Investing in ways to lose money? Not so much.
Cash in on some (or all) of these money-wise tips, and you’ll see savings in the long run. Here are Financial Mistakes to Avoid (so you can use that tax refund wisely).

So keep a bit more coin in your pocket: here are all of our Financial Mistakes to Avoid.
