Man and Woman Saving Money

My wife says saving $2 a day means we can retire at 55. We’re in our early 30s—and I honestly think that’s ridiculous. Is she right?

Retire at 55 and all you have to do is save $2 a day for the next 20-25 years. We get how that can sound pie-in-the-sky. But is it? Let’s run the numbers and find out if you can have your retire early pie and eat it too.

Woman concerned about pay app

I was tricked into sending money through an app, but my bank won’t dispute the charge because I “authorized” it. Is there any way to get my money back?

You didn’t get hacked. You didn’t have your card stolen. You sent the money yourself, because someone convinced you to. Now the bank says the charge was authorized, so there’s nothing they can do. Unfortunately, this is one of the hardest types of fraud to reverse, but “hard” doesn’t mean “impossible”.

Woman at Grocery Store checkout

Why does my bank keep giving me $50s and $100s when stores won’t even take them? What am I supposed to do?

Every time you go to the bank, you walk out with crisp $50s or $100s. Then you try to use one at a store, and suddenly it’s a problem. “Sorry, we don’t take big bills.” If they’re real money… why won’t anyone take them? And if no one will, why does the bank keep giving them to me?
