You know what they say, "more money, more problems." While that may be true in some circumstances, that doesn't mean in others, money wouldn't, in fact, solve the problems.

Here in the Garden State, it's expensive just to wake up in the morning. You can laugh, but if you happen to live here, just adjusting the temperature in your house makes you think about how much money you have in the bank. With inflation the way it is right now, let's just say it's getting harder and harder to make a decent living here in New Jersey.

That's not true for every NJ resident, of course.
