While the stock market may seem like a crazy and confusing place, in reality it's very simple.

Do you know how much is too much when it comes to house payments or rent? Millions of Americans are 'house poor', meaning that they're spending so much money just paying for housing that they don't have much left to spend elsewhere and invest. As a quick rule of thumb, I like to listen to Dave Ramsey when he says that you shouldn't be spending more than 25% of your take home pay on housing. Listen to this episode to learn the other rules of thumb and the 50/30/20 budget rule.
