Your 40s (and beyond) is a great time to get serious about building your wealth. There's a good chance your career is taking off and you're earning more money than you ever have before. With upcoming expenses like college and retirement looming, investing smartly and saving money are more important than ever.
Now is the time to make sure you're putting that money to work for you.
Cancel your car insurance
We've got bad news. You could be wasting $600 every year on overpriced, second-rate car insurance. And you should probably cancel your existing insurance right now, because there's something much better.
This new tool from FinanceBuzz can tell you if you're overpaying for your car insurance in just a few clicks. We match drivers with companies that report saving drivers up to $600 or more per year when they save! Each driver’s savings will vary by driving history and how many discounts you’re eligible for. And once you try it out, you'll never have to look for affordable insurance again because we find you the lowest rates that other companies can't match.
Oh, and it's also free. And come on — you can't tell us you don't want to save up to $600. To find out if you're losing up to $600 or more a year, just enter your zip code here, answer a few questions and see if you're overpaying. It takes less than 2 minutes.
Earn up to $150 in cash when you shop at Amazon
There's a credit card that's making waves this holiday season. The Discover it® Cash Back(Rates and fees) card has no annual fee, and through the end of 2024, you could earn 5% cash back on up to $1,500 of Amazon.com purchases when activated.
But ... you could double that 5% cash back to 10% with a rare welcome offer: Discover will match all the cash back you’ve earned at the end of your first year. The result? You could earn up to $150 — basically from doing your holiday shopping at Amazon (which we all do anyway).
After that, earning max cash back all year is simple. You can earn 5% cash back at different places each quarter up to the quarterly maximum when you activate, including gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants. Plus, you'll earn 1% cash back on all other purchases automatically. And remember, all of that cash back from your first year gets doubled with the welcome offer.
Accepted by 99% of merchants, if you want cash back, the Discover it® Cash Back card can help put more back in your wallet.
Annual fee: $0
