If You Make More than $1,500 Every Two Weeks, These 6 Money Moves Are For You

If you look at the lists of the world’s wealthiest people, they all have something- besides having huge bank accounts- in common. The rich own other companies. And while owning another company is something the 1% does, it’s not only for them- you can, too.

Public companies allow regular people to own a portion- or share- of the company by issuing stocks. But all too often, a single share of companies like Apple can cost thousands of dollars, leaving many to believe there’s no way for them to join in the game. But thankfully, times have changed and it’s now possible to own a piece of these big companies for as little as $1

Today, a lot of people use Stash to quickly and easily buy shares of other companies. It only takes a few minutes to set up and when these other companies profit, so do you! These companies will even send you a quarterly check with your share of the profits- called a dividend. 

Set up your account now, and Stash will put an extra $5 in the account once you make a deposit.

Imagine being able to tell your friends you own an apartment building. They’d never believe you, right, because don’t you have to be rich to own real estate?

Not anymore. For as little as $500, you too can own an apartment building, thanks to a company called DiversyFund, a company offering fractional apartment building ownership. By investing in the apartment complexes DiversyFund owns, you too can share in rent payments and property appreciation- without the hassle of being a landlord.

Real estate has the potential to earn you more money than other investments, and these pros know what they’re doing, as they’ve historically seen returns of 17-18% (vs 7-8% with stocks). Buying fractional shares is one of the hottest trends in investing, and DiversyFund makes it easy to do with real estate.

Move and shake like the 1% and buy your first apartment building today. All it takes to get started is a few minutes and $500.

You don’t have to have a trust fund to leave your family a million dollars after you’re gone. 

For as little as about $.30 a day, you can rest easy knowing your family would have money for college, the mortgage, and other bills if something were to happen to you. If you’re under 54 you can get a free, quick quote without a medical exam with a company called Bestow.

Preparing for the future- without leaving home- and leaving your family seven figures sounds like a win to us. 

You’re finally making some decent money, but maybe you still have some old credit card debt hanging around. You know those crazy interest rates are killing you, but you don’t have enough money in the bank to pay off all the debt at once. What can you do? 

Good news:  we found a company that will pay off your entire credit card bill this month. 

If you owe $50,000 or less, Fiona can help connect you with a low-interest loan to pay off all of the high-interest credit card debt, and replace it with one simple payment per month. And since personal loans have lower interest rates than credit cards, you’ll get out of debt that much faster. 

Do yourself a favor and check here to see if you’re eligible to credit card debt in the rearview mirror. 

While it is illegal in most places not to have car insurance, it should also be illegal to be overpaying (ok, not illegal, but you know what we mean!) Most people don’t think about it, but car insurance companies consider a lot of factors, so unless you’re comparing rates twice- yes, twice!- a year, you’re probably overpaying.

We know- who has time to shop for car insurance that often!? Since most of us are too busy living life, many people turn to The Zebra.

The Zebra searches over a hundred insurance companies that offer the same coverage and deductible as your current plan, but save you hundreds of dollars per year. The best part: it’s free and there are no forms to fill out. Just link your current policy and see how much you can save. 

If you find a plan you like, The Zebra will help you switch insurance carrier, cancel your old policy, and even get you a refund from your current provider.
