Hello On The Money readers!

It will come as no surprise that the ripple effects of the U.S. government shutdown will be felt far and wide. Here is what the shutdown means for you.

The shutdown is expected to impact domestic as well as international travel, fraud reporting to the FTC and small business loans.
