Travel hacks will make your money -- and you -- go farther

Money Life with Chuck Jaffe - A podcast by Chuck Jaffe

Categories:

Elliot Rosenberg, founder of Hack My Honeymoon, talks about strategies consumers can take to use miles, points and more to get free trips, accommodations and more, and while the savings is real, some of the advice -- involving opening multiple credit-card accounts to capture bonuses -- is not standard for consumers. Marci Stewart, director of client education for Schwab Workplace Financial Services discusses the firm's annual 401(k) Participant Study, which showed that more than 40 percent of workers say they are very likely to achieve their retirement savings goals, up dramatically from a year ago, and a surprise given consumers' concerns over inflation and high interest rates. Plus, Chuck answers a listener's question about a perceived dislike of cryptocurrency, and we revisit a recent conversation with Jeanette Garretty, chief economist at Robertson Stephens Wealth Management.
