We’re exploring gaps, in our economy and in our lives. We want to know, have you had a gap month, a year, or more?

Maybe you needed money before school, or you were unemployed for a while.

Lizzie O’Leary took your stories of  financial gaps in time to  Lisa Kueng and Ellen Rogin authors of Picture Your Prosperity, for advice.
