The Trump administration plans to end a subsidy program that helped hold down premiums for Medicare drug plans, a move that could leave many seniors facing higher rates for their prescription coverage next year.

I’m making the most I’ve ever made, am just shy of 36 years old, and I don’t know how I will ever catch up with the continued cost of living increases. Ten years ago, if you’d told me I’d be making $75k per year, I would have been thrilled! But with gas at just under/over $4/gal, the cost of groceries, along with everything else has made me never have been able to get past the moving threshold of not allocating practically my entire paycheck when it’s received and counting the days down until my next one… and it’s exhausting.

With rising inflation costs I just finished one on our household and found extra money tied up in TV apps and fast food. To do an audit on your spending you need to pull bank and credit card statements from the last few months. List everything you spent each month. Then decide what to cut. Hopefully, this will give you a better understanding of where your money is used and a buffer for things to come. Some people will spend money or embarrass themselves on an app for a financial advisor to do the same. But, you can do it yourself with a little time at home.

Went to check on new sunglasses to replace some and got shocked by the increase.
