Just moved to the us and my driving licence is less than 1 year old. I need a car as it’s impossible to live here without one but car insurance quotes are crazy (+1000$ per month) because of my situation. any tips on how to get a reasonable one? Thanks

Try long term rental programs like Sixt that include insurance. The monthly payments can be pricey around $1000 per month but at least it includes the car payment, you can get a nice car with low commitment and insurance is included.

We all know how inflation can derail our Retirement Planning dreams!!Though it's better to start investing as early as possible,but HEY, all is not lost even if you start little late. We all have our family responsibilities when we start our career, so "INVESTING FOR SELF" takes a back seat.
Just a perspective, even if someone at the age of 45 years starts investin for his retirement, he can decently manage the same with discipline and regular investing.
Happy to discuss with anyone on this!!
