gordonangela+FollowWait, Pepsi Owns My Oatmeal?Ever think you’re picking between totally different brands at the store? Surprise! A lot of those "choices"—like Pepsi and Quaker Oats, or Dove and Axe—are just the same company in disguise. Big corporations use different brands to fill your pantry and bathroom, making it look like you have options. Next time you shop, peek at the fine print. It’s a small money lifehack: knowing who’s really behind your favorite products can help you shop smarter (or at least feel like a savvy insider). #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #MoneyHacks10Share
Stacie Hernandez+FollowStill Waiting on Unemployment? You’re Not AloneNevada’s shiny new unemployment system promised faster payouts and better security, but lots of folks are still stuck waiting for their checks. Some have been in limbo since February!

Hang in there—hopefully, those payments will start rolling in soon! #Business #NevadaUnemployment #MoneyHacks30Share
peterfoster+FollowWhy Steak Night Might Cost More SoonHeads up, grill fans! Cattle prices just hit new highs, which means your next steak dinner could get pricier. Fewer cows are heading to the butcher, so ranchers are getting top dollar for their herds. Meanwhile, the price for boxed beef is wobbling, but don’t expect discounts at the meat counter just yet. If you love a good BBQ, you might want to stock up before prices sizzle even more! #Business #Industry #MoneyHacks20Share
Samuel Gutierrez+FollowWhy Your Next Car Might Cost $7,500 MoreHeads up if you’re car shopping: major brands like Jeep and Dodge could jack up prices by $7,500 if new tariffs hit. That’s because bringing cars and parts from Europe might get way pricier, and companies like Stellantis are already bracing for big losses. If you’re not ready to pay more, you’re not alone—most folks might just keep their old ride longer. Time to baby that 12-year-old car! #Business #CarPrices #MoneyHacks10Share
Christine Baxter+FollowUncashed Retirement Checks? IRS Says No Take-BacksEver forget to cash a retirement check? The IRS just clarified: even if you never cash it, the tax man still counts it as money in your pocket. So, don’t expect a tax refund just because you let that check gather dust. If you get a replacement check, only extra earnings get taxed again. Bottom line: cash those checks or not, Uncle Sam’s already counted his share! #Business #MakeMoney #MoneyHacks70Share
James Cook+FollowBanks Charging to Touch Your Cash?!Heads up: some banks are now charging you just for handling cash—even at their own ATMs! That means you could get dinged a few bucks just for depositing or withdrawing your own money. The move is banks’ way of nudging us toward digital payments, but if you’re someone who likes to use cash (or gets paid in it), these fees can really add up. Pro tip: check your bank’s fee list, batch your cash transactions, or consider switching to a credit union to dodge these sneaky charges. #Business #MakeMoney #MoneyHacks6143Share
Kathryn Olsen+FollowCould Your Next Car Save You on Taxes?Heads up if you’re car shopping: Starting in 2025, you might be able to write off the interest on your auto loan—just like with a mortgage! The catch? It’s only for new, U.S.-assembled rides, and there’s an income cap. This could mean a couple grand back in your pocket over a few years, but don’t expect it to make new cars a steal. Still, if you’re eyeing a Tesla or a Ford (but not all models!), it’s worth checking if you qualify before signing that loan. #Business #MakeMoney #MoneyHacks00Share
Elizabeth Lewis+FollowWhy Your House Isn’t Making You RichEver thought your house or car was making you wealthier? Think again! Turns out, most of us are stacking up stuff that drains our wallets instead of filling them. The real money move? Use your cash to buy things that pay you back—like rental properties or stocks that send you cash every month. The trick is to spend less on flashy stuff and more on assets that work for you, not the other way around. That’s how you break free from living paycheck to paycheck! #Business #Market #MoneyHacks30Share
megan01+FollowWhy Selling Your House Before Retiring Makes SenseThinking about retiring with a house? It might be time to rethink that plan. Homeownership now costs the average American $21,000 a year—ouch! Between surprise repairs, taxes, and bills, your dream home can turn into a money pit. Many retirees risk running out of cash, so selling your house before retirement could free up money for travel, hobbies, or just peace of mind. Plus, you might dodge a big tax bill if you plan ahead. Would you sell your home to boost your retirement fund? #RealEstate #RetirementPlanning #MoneyHacks68Share
