They'd been smart with their money, Carl had maxed out his 401(k) every year, and they'd made money flipping homes. With a specific early retirement goal in mind, however, they revamped their investment strategy — and they started seeing results. He and Mindy, who works part-time as a podcast host for BiggerPockets, have grown their investment portfolio from $586,000 in 2013 to $4.6 million in 2024. "Almost all of our new money goes to index funds at this point in our life." Courtesy of Carl and Mindy JensenAs for general investing advice, "If they want to be completely passive, they should do index funds," said Carl.

New York CNN —If you haven’t sent in your 2023 income tax return yet, you have until April 15 to do so. But keep in mind, that extension only gives you more time to file your federal income tax return. The IRS has already received more than 80 million income tax returns for 2023, according to its most recent figures released Friday. Besides a refund, the IRS further notes low- and moderate-income earners also may be eligible to receive the Earned Income Tax Credit. And if you do file and are owed a refund, it may be withheld if you have yet to file your 2021 or 2022 returns.

Understanding I wasn't alone helped me change my spending habitsI have always been a spender and often lived paycheck to paycheck. I was barely contributing to my retirement savings.

Eight economists, investment chiefs, and strategists that Business Insider recently spoke to credited healthier-than-anticipated consumer balance sheets and spending for the continued expansion. "Either that, or they're going to be maxed out — they can't get any more money. They're not going to have any liquidity to be able to continue to do the things they're going to do." He's also sticking with defensive stocks as consumer spending softens, including those in the consumer staples sector like Clorox (CLX) and Procter & Gamble (PG). Real estate is a "hated asset class" that's negatively correlated with interest rates, Sekera said.

Wardrobe consultant Kenzie Welch encourages her clients to invest in quality T-shirts. She recommends the Tomboy Tee, which usually retails for around $50, from Cuts Clothing. But fashion stylist and wardrobe consultant Kenzie Welch told Business Insider the No. 1 item she always tells her clients to invest in is a great quality T-shirt.

AdvertisementThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Faith Larkum, a student who participated in a FluCamp trial. How a clinical trial testing flu medicine worksFluCamp called the next day, inviting me for a blood test and explaining how the trial worked. The premise of the trial is you're injected with a diluted flu virus and then given either medicine or a placebo. AdvertisementThe only entertainment you're given is a PS4 and a few different games. I enjoy films and series as much as the next person, but after the trial, I'd completely maxed out my capacity for TV.

They still couldn't land a deal on Friday's episode of ABC's "Shark Tank" due to making what billionaire investor Mark Cuban referred to as "the biggest mistake startups make": trying to grow their brand too quickly. Skaloud and Feiereisen co-founded Boona, a Seattle-based company that makes a $249 showerhead called the "Tandem." "We want to build a brand," Feiereisen said. "Some of the greatest deals in 'Shark Tank' history [are] when the entrepreneur focused on that one application and maxed it out." And if we do create new products, it's to support Tandem," Feiereisen said, trying to reel investors back in.

After 65, you can use your HSA money to cover any expense without incurring a penalty, but the funds are subject to income tax. I happily used my HSA money to cover the $1,075 bill. An even smarter move would have been to invest my HSA funds (which I eventually did) and not touch them until age 65. I was relieved when Weiss told me that he also invests his HSA money in a retirement date fund. I asked about how often I should be transferring money from my cash account, where my HSA funds land automatically, to my investment account.

The S & P 500 Volatility Index finished the week near 15 and is in a clear three- month uptrend from its mid-December low near 12, even as the S & P 500 has gained 10% since then. In fact, Friday the market minimized the headline damage to a mere two-thirds-percent dip in the S & P 500 through its signature rotational impulse. Some indicators — such as speculators remaining net short S & P 500 futures and brokerage strategists' muted index targets — imply the helpful wall of worry is not quite fully scaled. Since then, the S & P has delivered a 16.7% annualized total return, even after two bear markets and two other severe/prolonged corrections. And the S & P is only up 7% from its high 26 months ago, hardly in thin air.

I tried the viral 6-to-1 grocery-shopping method to see if it could improve my life. I saved money and minimized food waste, so I plan on using the 6-to-1 method again in the future. The 6-to-1 grocery-shopping method went viral when Chef Will Coleman posted a video on TikTok about how he grocery shops. So, I did the same when I tried the 6-to-1 method. Overall, the 6-to-1 method was handy, and I'd use it againI used almost all the groceries I purchased for this experiment.

For the last 10 years, Dominique Horn has worked for a community health organization in the fast-growing city of Vancouver in Washington State, helping people squeezed by soaring rents to try to avoid homelessness. Sometimes she wonders if she’s going to be her agency’s next client. With her husband struggling at times to find work, Ms. Horn has maxed out her credit cards to keep pace with the rent. The couple and their two children have moved so many times that she keeps sentimental items like photos and heirlooms boxed up, because no place feels like home yet. “I’m just in a constant state of waiting for the other shoe to drop,” said Ms. Horn, 42, whose current lease expires in May.

Even though I planned to get my own place at some point, I ended up living at home for 12 years. When I moved out this past December, I had $400,000 saved and invested from both my 9-to-5 income and earnings as an entrepreneur. In my early 20s, my meals were split 50/50 between my parent's cooking and the Google cafeterias. So in 2017, I left Google and the 9-to-5 grind, to focus on what I was really passionate about. In 2018, I started teaching yoga, and five years later, I pivoted to another passion of mine: music.

Vita Coco started with a leap of faith, a $75,000 investment and "several" maxed-out credit cards. Today, the bestselling coconut water company is worth $1.1 billion. They paid mostly with Kirban's money, which he'd obtained by founding and running a real estate software business after dropping out of college. That software business still exists, and Kirban still helps run it on the side, he says. It was only the beginning of Vita Coco's long journey to financial success, with more stumbling blocks along the way.

“America's Team.”The team that much of America loved, and perhaps just as much loved to hate. The title these days has fallen on the Kansas City Chiefs, who play the San Francisco 49ers next weekend in their fourth Super Bowl in five years. Just like so many versions of “America's Team," though, a certain amount of fatigue also is setting in. They can make it four next Sunday, when they play the 49ers in a Super Bowl trending to be the most expensive ticket in history. We’ve got an even bigger target on our back than we did last year,” Chiefs safety Justin Reid said.

The government — which owns the Post Office — has described the scandal as one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in British history. The software regularly showed that money — often many thousands of pounds — had gone missing from Post Office accounts. The Post Office has so far paid more than £138 million ($176 million) in compensation, a company spokesperson told CNN. “The Horizon system was a piece of machinery and software that wasn’t working correctly,” she said. “If the Post Office can do this to you, then God knows what any other brand is capable of,” she said.

If you're itching to save more for retirement, there are higher 401(k) contribution limits for 2024. But there are a few things to consider before maxing out your plan, experts say. For 2024, you can defer up to $23,000 into 401(k) plans, up from $22,500 in 2023, with an extra $7,500 for savers age 50 and older. Some higher earners can funnel even more into their 401(k), depending on plan rules. By comparison, after-tax Roth 401(k) contributions allow assets to grow tax-free, without reducing current-year taxes.

Vesna Andjic | E+ | Getty ImagesWith roughly one month left in 2023, there's still time to reduce your tax bill or boost your refund, experts say. In 2018, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act nearly doubled the standard deduction, slashing the number of filers who itemized. Make the most of your tax bracketBefore completing a year-end strategy that adds to your income, you should see if you can afford to "run up the income tax brackets," Dietz said. Pretax IRA contributions : You can still make up to $6,500 in pretax IRA contributions ($7,500 for age 50 and older) for 2023, which may offer a deduction. However, you need to check IRA tax break eligibility first.

Taylor Yates, 27, felt drained and burned out from living in a city and being surrounded by people. In 2021, she and her boyfriend decided to move to live in a rural cottage in the woods. I'm a very sensitive person, and constantly being surrounded by so many people and activities sapped my energy and made me feel exhausted. I was drained living in a city, and I felt like I always had to be doing something or I was missing out. I'd rather have the life I have now, and the ability to visit the city when I want to.

Arik Armstead of the San Francisco 49ers at the NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Jan. 29, 2023. While the pay stub showed gross earnings of more than $4 million year to date, experts say it holds lessons for everyday taxpayers. While it's possible to withhold less than you'll owe, you could risk underpayment penalties on top of a sizable income tax bill in April. Max out your 401(k) to save on taxesIn addition to significant tax withholdings, Armstead also maxed out his workplace retirement plan for 2023. But you can reduce your adjusted gross income with pre-tax 401(k) contributions, experts say.
