Frontier Airlines' annual all-you-can-fly flight pass called "GoWild!" The "unlimited" flight pass has its limitationsOne of the biggest concerns about GoWild is actually getting anywhere at all. Finding GoWild seats is a lot of tedious guess-and-checkThe process of searching and booking GoWild seats is a cumbersome task. While I had a good experience, there are still a lot of limitations to the "unlimited" flight pass, and the costs can add up.

However, a debt consolidation loan isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, says CFP Uziel Gomez. While I try to avoid carrying high-interest debt and aim to pay my credit card balance in full each month, as a financial coach, people often come to me feeling overwhelmed and wanting help with looming credit card debt. Sometimes, a debt consolidation loan can help, but it's not always the answer. If someone isn't ready for debt consolidation, Gomez recommends whittling away at your credit card payments using either the snowball or avalanche debt payoff method. You haven't established good habitsIf you haven't established good habits to keep your credit card spending to a minimum, it's probably best not to consider a credit card debt consolidation loan or balance transfer card.

The industry's movers and shakers are still into name brands but are leaning into those that exude "quiet luxury."

New York CNN —Americans tend to shell out in the summer as they venture outdoors, book trips and step away from their desks. Consumers plan to spend less on away-from-home entertainment and vacations this summer, according to the 2024 KPMG Consumer Pulse Survey released Tuesday. That’s a contrast to last year when Americans shelled out on the “Barbenheimer” phenomenon, Taylor Swift and Beyoncé concert tickets and getaways. Retailers that offer Americans more bang for their buck including Ross Stores, TJ Maxx and HomeGoods-parent TJX, Dollar General and Walmart have benefitted. Americans are also feeling worse about the economy as they struggle with elevated inflation and high borrowing rates.

CNN —The most uncancellable person in US History — iconic American singer, songwriter and actress, Dolly Parton — has been caught in the crosshairs of cancel culture. Have the haters run afoul and gone and ruined Dolly Parton as the magical unifier that she has long been known for? But Dolly Parton slid through over the past years, decades even, largely unscathed by the polarization and division. Indeed, the pitchforks coming for Dolly Parton serve as an apt reminder of America’s decline and sheer terror of the evitability of civil war. That is, if we can heal from this episode and uncancel Dolly Parton.
