Kathryn Olsen+FollowHow Often Should You Actually See Your Money Coach?Ever wonder if you’re ghosting your financial advisor—or if they’re ghosting you?

But if you’re planning a big move, like buying a house, you’ll want more frequent chats. The real red flag? If you’re left in the dark about your money or your advisor never replies, it’s time to shop around. You deserve someone who keeps you in the loop, not just cashes your checks! #MoneyTips #FinancialAdvice #LifeHacks #Business #MakeMoney20Share

The warehouse giant is opening its first-ever standalone gas station in California—no shopping carts, just cheap fuel for members. If you fill up at Costco regularly, those savings can actually cover your membership fee. The twist? This new spot is all about gas—no snacks, no bathrooms, just 40 pumps and speedy fill-ups. It’s a smart move for anyone who loves saving at the pump without the parking lot chaos.

Jennifer Reyes+FollowIs Solar About to Get Way More Expensive?Heads up if you’ve been eyeing solar panels for your home: the big tax credit that makes solar affordable could disappear way sooner than expected. Lawmakers are talking about ending the 30% solar discount in 2025 instead of 2034. That means if you wait, you might miss out on thousands in savings—and so could your neighbors. If these credits go away, solar could go back to being a luxury, and a lot of local installers might shut down. Thinking about going solar? Now might be the time to act! #SolarSavings #HomeHacks #MoneyTips #Business #Industry11Share
Shelly Powell+FollowWould You Live in a Garage Mansion?Spotted: a giant lakefront mansion with garages bigger than most homes! Redditors are roasting its weird design, but here’s the twist—if those garages are packed with electric cars and the house is loaded with smart tech, the owners could be saving thousands on gas and energy bills. Pro tip: Even if you don’t have a McMansion, adding solar panels or a smart thermostat can cut your costs and your carbon footprint. Big or small, every home can get in on the savings! #HomeHacks #EcoLiving #MoneyTips #RealEstate564Share
awaters+FollowWhy Gas Prices Might Spike SoonHeads up: Gas prices could be heading up after Israel’s attack on Iran sent oil prices soaring by 15%.

If you’re planning a road trip or have a long commute, now might be the time to fill up your tank before prices jump! #OilPrices #GasHacks #MoneyTips #Business #Industry1824Share
James Cook+FollowWill Your Social Security Shrink Soon?Heads up: If Congress doesn’t step in, Social Security checks could get a haircut by 2033—think 21% less in your monthly payout. For a middle-class couple, that’s over $16,000 a year gone! The drama? It’s a waiting game in D.C., so don’t bank on the same benefits forever. If you’re not retired yet, it’s smart to stash a little extra cash now—just in case Uncle Sam tightens the purse strings. #SocialSecurity #RetirementPlanning #MoneyTips #Business #MakeMoney2813Share
christinewhite+FollowCostco’s Early Bird & Delivery Deal HackHeads up, Costco fans! Starting June 30, Executive members get to shop an hour earlier than everyone else—perfect for snagging those July 4th party supplies before the crowds. Plus, if you love same-day delivery, you’ll score a $10 credit each month on orders over $150.

carlsongary+FollowCostco’s Early Bird Perk: Worth It?Costco’s rolling out the red carpet for Executive members—starting June 30, you can hit the aisles at 9 a.m. and enjoy a quieter, less crowded shop. Plus, if you’re into online orders, you’ll snag a $10 monthly credit for big Instacart or Same-day hauls. But here’s the catch: the fancier membership is double the price.

Otherwise, do the math before upgrading! #CostcoHacks #MoneyTips #SmartShopping #Business #LocalBusiness41Share
