Hi. My name is Kyle Burbank and I’m a Millennial. Yes, I say this like it’s some sort of healing admission given the bad rap my generation has endured in recent years. You know — the talk about how anyone under 35 is lazy, entitled, and doesn’t even know how to really be an adult? While I strongly resent that generalization, I have to say that I've certainly made a few mistakes along the way myself, especially when it comes to finance.
Welcome back to another Travel Tuesday as I continue my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. As we were waiting for our post-vaccination trip to begin last month, you may recall that I wrote a post detailing how I was living vicariously through a set of apps called MyVegas. You can check...
I like to fashion myself a fairly savvy online consumer. Not only am I able to quickly discern poor phishing attempts but have even foiled a few of the more convincing variety. On top of that, I know a few different things to check when it comes to sniffing out...
Between the different accounts, contribution limits, taxes, and more, there’s a lot of confusion that surrounds retirement savings. However, when you break things down, it’s really not all that complicated. In fact, you can start saving for retirement with just a few dollars and grow it into something much more sustainable by the time you retire. So what are you waiting for?
If you've ever happened to keep an eye on a company that was going public and then tried to buy shares for yourself once they did, you may have been in for a surprise. That's because, while you may see reports about a company's target price, that might not be...
When my wife and I both reached fully vaccinated status, we knew exactly what we wanted to do next: head to Las Vegas. Sure enough, that's what we did this past week (just ahead of everyone else doing the same thing, apparently), checking out several hotels in the process. Those...
This week calls for a bit of celebration. Seeing as my wife and I are now both fully vaccinated, we decided to travel to Las Vegas and meet up with a couple of friends. In addition to resort hopping and gathering material for future Travel Tuesday reviews, I’ve also taken...
When my wife and I moved to Springfield, Missouri almost exactly five years ago, one of the selling points (or at least what kept it in the running) was that there was a nearby airport that served a number of destinations. Unfortunately, while it is convenient, flying out of such...
Remember a few years ago when you thought that friend of yours who always had the latest model iPhone was crazy for spending that much? That’s changed in recent years as carriers and others now allow you to lease your device. Taking a page from the auto industry, you have...
As someone who regularly “workations” (or did when travel was still a thing) and relies on a solid Internet connection to be productive while traveling, it’s kind of crazy that I went without a WiFi hotspot for so long. That’s mostly because I had never come across a particular device...
As much I love USPS's Informed Delivery service, it can sometimes cause me anguish. Specifically, there have now been two times when seeing what was headed to my mailbox led to several stressful hours. I should probably explain... A few weeks ago, I saw that I had some piece of...
So is this new Starbucks Rewards Visa Prepaid Card worth it? In short, maybe. If you're somehow not already a Starbucks Gold Cardholder but shop there with any frequency, getting automatic status is a great thing.
