I'm exploring how we could save money on these purchases by opening up a new credit card, so I asked certified financial planner Bobbi Rebell whether it's a better idea for us to open a store credit card or a rewards credit card. "Sometimes store credit cards come with 0% interest for a given period of time." The Pottery Barn credit card also works at all seven brands under the store's umbrella, including West Elm and Williams Sonoma. Rewards credit cards come with more flexibility and ongoing perksDespite the perks that store credit cards offer, Rebell says that other credit cards come with more flexibility, especially with how you can use your rewards. That's useful, especially if we need more than 12 months to pay off our credit card bills once a store credit card's 0% APR wears off.

How money market accounts differ from savings and checking accountsWhile money market accounts are similar to savings and checking accounts in a lot of ways, there are a few ways in which they differ. In comparison, money market accounts offer good interest rates, and the best money market accounts can have interest rates over 5% APY. Additionally, the rate you get on your money market account is frequently dependent on how much money you have in your account. Just like savings accounts, money market accounts frequently put limits on how many times you can withdraw money per month. Comparing MMAs to other investment optionsWhen comparing money market accounts to investing, money market accounts have two big advantages: security and liquidity.

How to use credit card travel insuranceTo use travel protections available with your credit card, make sure you purchase your airplane tickets with that card.

Retirement saving for women can be difficult because of pay gaps and time out of the workforce. "It's vital that women understand what their specific challenges to saving and investing will be," Kaufman said to Insider. But it will definitely take more than telling women to just save more money or make more money. "We have to do more than save money in a 401k and a bank account," says Kaufman. Just working and saving money is not going to get you there," Tisdale says.
I'm Phil Rosen, and economic signals from our colleagues across the pond are deep in the red to start the week. No frills or tomfoolery today, out of fear that the pound will drop further before we get to the news. FILE PHOTO: British five pound banknotes are seen in this picture illustration Reuters1. Even after its third consecutive 75-basis-point hike last week, all signs point to more to come. What do you think is the Bank of England's best option to stop the pound from falling further?
Rebell, who has previously worked in various reporter roles, specializes in personal finance topics. "I was always fascinated with money — but from a personal finance perspective — so I took the leap to get into financial journalism," Rebell tells Insider. "I found that all of the financial news coverage focused on the economy and the stock market, but I knew there was a place for personal finance," Rebell says. "I was offered the opportunity to write a personal finance column and it really resonated with readers."
