CNBC's International Your Money Financial Security Survey conducted by SurveyMonkey recently asked people all over the world exactly that, and the answers revealed of how people in different countries think about their finances. "Financial security is not an income amount," the 42-year-old tells CNBC Make It. "To me, financial security is a time amount." Adcock says the moment he felt financially secure came in 2016 at age 35, when he retired from his corporate job with about $900,000. "That was really the first time where I felt financially secure, meaning we don't have to work for the rest of our lives."

Then you get to collect Social Security, on top of drawing from the nest egg you've built up over your career. In a recent CNBC survey, over half of respondents in the US said they thought they were behind on saving and planning for retirement. The burden of saving for retirement — and the anxiety that comes with it — is a fairly new phenomenon. There's nothing irrational about being nervous that you won't have enough money to live on to last your whole life. AdvertisementIt's not likely that Social Security will just dry up — Congress could increase the retirement age or up the funding for the program.

While still a small minority, campers are more likely to own an electric vehicle than those who don’t go camping, according to a survey by Kampgrounds of America, the nation’s largest campground operator. Only about 1% of Americans currently have an electric vehicle, according to KOA, but about 4% of regular campers do. “We’ve had customers cross coasts, all the way up to Canada, all the way across Canada and back down, all with an electric vehicle,” said Bowlus CEO Geneva Long. Courtesy RivianThe physical layout of most EV chargers can be a challenge for campers. The vast majority of EV chargers are placed at the ends of parking spaces so vehicles have to either pull in, nosing the front bumper up to the charger, or reverse back in.

Brad, 55, and Angie, 56, joke that you might mistake their home for a millionaire's if they lived in a more expensive city. In reality, the couple are empty-nesters living in Wisconsin, where they earn a joint income of around $245,000 a year. The amount they earn should go further in Wisconsin than areas with higher costs of living. In fact, they owe about $430,000 between their mortgage, student loans and other debts. But that probably won't be possible, unless their spending habits and debt balances change dramatically, Sethi said.

In 2021, she and her husband moved to Las Vegas, subsequently quitting her job and taking a 20% pay cut. Peck says the move and the pay cut were worth it and she loves her life in Vegas. I negotiated a huge pay bump and started making $167,500, which increased to $184,000 after I got a 10% raise. Now, I own a house triple the size of my California house and I'm paying only $4,200 a year in property tax. But if you're like me and you're transitioning to a place with lower expenses and lower taxes, it can make sense.

CNN —A megastructure found in the Baltic Sea may represent one of the oldest known hunting structures used in the Stone Age — and could change what’s known about how hunter-gatherers lived around 11,000 years ago. The stones, which connected several large boulders, were almost perfectly aligned, making it seem unlikely that nature had shaped the structure. The team determined that the wall was likely built by Stone Age communities to hunt reindeer more than 10,000 years ago. Hunting sites around the worldThe discovery marks the first Stone Age hunting structure in the Baltic Sea region. The Lake Huron wall’s construction and location, which includes a lakeshore to one side, is most similar to the Baltic Sea wall’s, the study authors said.
