She enjoyed seeing snippets of Sunil’s life – flashes of him going out with friends, cooking, working out. “I decided I wanted to book a trip to come to India and meet my friend,” she recalls. Amanda didn’t reply right away. There were more than a few raised eyebrows — many of her loved ones worried things had moved too quickly, that Amanda didn’t really know Sunil. “The pandemic was really, really bad here.”Amid this fear and uncertainty, Amanda and Sunil hunkered down with each other and their dog.

☆ How to maintain friendships when you can't afford to go out: 'Know which relationships are valuable to you'

Look at how much money you're putting into each person with whom you spend time. "When you're reviewing your social spending, really luxuriate in the things that felt good," she says. Let's say you're going to expensive dinners once a month with a friend who makes you anxious. Perhaps it's worth cutting down how much time, and as result how much money, you're spending to maintain that relationship. Bernadette Joy, a self-made millionaire who paid off $300,000 of debt, cut down on social spending by hosting game nights.

☆ Why so many Gen Zers and millennials have 'money dysmorphia' — even if they are financially better off than they realize

In fact, Gen Zers — people born between 1997 and 2012 — are more worried about saving than any other generation, a BI survey showed. Nearly half of Gen Zers and millennials have it, according to a recent Credit Karma survey. Money dysmorphia goes beyond wanting to pay off some credit card debt or to contribute more to a 401(k). It's "pervasive worry, vigilance — like an internalized feeling of unsafety with money," Clayman said, even when there aren't pressing financial problems to solve. AdvertisementClayman explained why younger generations are more likely to experience warped views around their finances — and might be more financially stable than they give themselves credit for.

Like many families throughout the U.S., Amanda, 28, and Carlos, 36, are wrestling with the cost of child care. The couple keeps their finances separate, with Amanda covering child care while Carlos pays for other costs, like rent. The burden often falls on womenThe cost of external child care has risen by roughly 263% from 1990 to 2024, according to a KPMG analysis. But even when a family has the option to decide between paying for child care or having one parent stay home, there are more costs to consider. You might be sacrificing career growth by staying home, or you may be sacrificing some of your ability to build wealth by paying for child care.

Some budgeting apps work by auto-transferring money to your savings account. Financial therapist and podcast host Amanda Clayman said these apps make you disengaged from your money. Budgeting apps make it easier for you to transfer money into savings accounts without having to think about it. While some people credit budgeting apps as useful tools, they're far from the best way to save money in the long term, according to Amanda Clayman, a financial therapist and host of the Audible series "Emotional Investment." According to Clayman, apps that automatically move money to your savings account can be great for short-term goals like planning for an upcoming vacation.

New York CNN —Elon Musk has given up, restoring the “lords and peasants” blue checkmark system he once admonished and assailed as elitism. “Twitter’s current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn’t have a blue checkmark is bullshit,” Musk wrote in November 2022. But most journalists and other notable users who once sported the checkmark declined to fork over the cash. Even worse, trolls impersonating the identities of others were granted blue checkmarks, stripping the symbol of its core value: identity verification. A representative for X did not respond to a request for comment on Musk’s move to restore the blue checkmarks.

Earlier in the day, Pakistan's benchmark share index fell 1.6% after Pakistan said it conducted strikes inside Iran, before recovering some ground. Pakistan's economic ties with Iran, while not huge, are important for Islamabad as it struggles to supply its western- most regions in Balochistan with critical commodities, including fuel and electricity.
