How much do all of you put aside each year ? I am surprised by the amount of money people save… just curious to know if you are all already home owners or renters, kids or no kids and in which city.
I am in TO, renter and 44 and I am so far from having that money aside.

I target between 35-40K for my household per year. And then good bonus year I try to put most of it away too. Homeowner but got a mortgage based on only my salary and not my spouses so we aren't stretched and house poor. It's small but doable for us and our one toddler.

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide

There’s a debit card that I’ve been using for the past 4 years and it beats out some of the cash back credit cards. It’s the Cash app debit card.

I posted about it on my Instagram HerMillennialMoney if you want to learn my tips and tricks with the care.
