7 Moves If You Want To Retire Early

Cancel your car insurance

We've got bad news. You could be wasting $500 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 $500 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 $500. To find out if you're losing up to $500 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.

Get $10 to Start Investing in Tesla, Apple, Amazon, and Other Companies

An important first step towards early retirement can be to come up with an investing strategy. Even if you decide not to invest a lot of money, you don't have to let that stop you from getting started — you can start investing with $5 or less.

Stash was built to help beginner investors get started. You can buy fractional shares (partial shares) in companies that are household names like Apple, Google, Amazon, and more¹ . Normally a single share of these companies could cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, but you only need as little as $5 to get started with Stash.

You can consider opening an IRA so that you can enjoy the tax benefits that come with these retirement accounts. Stash also offers tools and guidance to help you along the way.

As a bonus, Stash will give you $10 to invest after you deposit $5 or more into your personal portfolio.⁴

Want even more tools and guidance? If you choose the Stash+ plan² when signing up, you can earn 2x stock rewards when you spend on eligible purchases!³
