Saving a down payment in a single month would mean you have a pretty sizable income to start. I get what you’re saying, but if it’s a $10 avocado toast every day, then there are enough days in 3 years to save a $10k down payment for a sta

Trump’s VP nominee also completely flipped his views in the last few years to join the ranks of conservative grifters feeding off anti-immigrant and anti-“woke” sentiment. I wouldn’t trust anything he says. The Trump/Vance admin will s
