THE THINGS TO KNOW

four ideas that cover most of it

📄

01

Read before you sign

Leases, contracts, financing — the important parts hide on page two. Key words: term, penalty, auto-renew, APR. Never sign under time pressure.

🥘

02

Five meals save a fortune

Learn five cheap meals you actually like. Eating out at $15 a meal costs over $400 a month; cooking the same food costs about a third of that.

🚗

03

🩺

04
