VeggieTales_5SuperSilly

If you missed my money-saving tips this morning on Indianapolis’ B105.7, here’s the rundown!

  • Parents of potty training kiddos, you might be able to score FREE Good Nights brand Bed Mats at Walmart, for night time training. Print a high value coupon for $4 off any size package, and take it to Walmart where you might find travel size packs for around $2 (although I didn’t see this in my store), or else apply it to a larger size package for still great savings. You can even print the coupon twice.

What can you give to a high schooler or recent grad that can help them learn how to make good money decisions for their next phase of life?

Smart From the Start by Brad Kronland and Rob Roach of Fishers, Indiana is the perfect pocket guide to help young adults with all the do’s and don’ts of their first critical financial choices:

  • Getting their first car – leasing vs. buying, pre-owned vs. new – and how to negotiate the deal
  • Deciding whether to rent an apartment vs. buy a house
  • Understanding the buying process, mortgages, and taxes in simple, easy-to-understand terms
  • Figuring out their insurance deductible, 401(k) options, investing and saving for retirement
  • … and so much more!

At the end of each chapter are easy definitions relating to the topic introduced. You also learn how “they” make money, whether “they” are the insurance agent, credit card issuers or other key players. All throughout the book there are tips from fictitious “Ted”, who may not make the best decision but learns his valuable lesson, proving that even smart people make mistakes!

Here’s an excerpt from the book:

How can insurance companies make a profit when they are constantly paying for their customers’ car repairs or doctor bills? Insurance companies make a profit by collecting insurance premiums, investing those premiums in stocks, bonds, or other investments, earning money on those investments, and then paying claims with a portion of those gains. They are very good at projecting how many insurance claims will be filed during a year. They use this information to set their premiums, making sure they’ll be more than the projected claims.

Read more about Smart from the Start in this recent Grad Magazine article.

  • Laminate your favorite recipes to protect from food splatters.
  • Are you a gardener? Make ground markers for seeds or bulbs.
