One of our top tips to increase your savings is to set yourself a short-term challenge. Committing to a lifetime of low spending can feel heavy. Lighten the task with a short-term goal, like going a week without any nonessential spending or saving an extra $1k just this month.

This Sunday is also #PUPPYBOWLXVII! In addition to adorableness and supporting shelters, it's a #FinLit lesson on the difference between brands and companies. Ask your students what company a majority of this year's sponsors have in common? bit.ly/3cICvbC
