Aren’t these self-serving marketing messages dressed up as girl power appalling? Overspending might be good for you retailer, but not for us.

Working in finance inspires money saving hacks in my everyday life. This time it was cutting costs on moving house. A couch was on the list, but spending big wasn’t. That’s where the $46B second hand economy came in. Sustainable and thrifty wins in my book ✅ #savings

Missing out on bonus interest if you withdraw money is a pain. The flexibility to dip into savings occasionally is important for some, and you don't want to cop a penalty for doing so. @YahooFinanceAU's @thelucydean hit me up for tips to maximise savings

Data crunched by @Canstar research analysts shows the average bonus savings account with $10,000 deposited was earning $505.98 a year in 2011, compared to just $114.72 in 2020 – a difference of nearly $400.📉 Story at: https://t.co/c3nlOy64KN Infographic:

This way of thinking can be such a trap at Christmas. I get distracted by thoughts like 'it's just my present to myself', 'the kids will love this, & this, and this', and think less about the plumpness of my offset account until I catch myself. Anyone else? Words from @HuffPostAU

Had a good chat with Matthew Boyd of @vollieco about how charitable giving has been turned on its head in 2020. Plus, tips & ideas for donating to a good cause, whether or not you have cash to spare this 'season of giving'.

ASIC says Australians have doubled #BuyNowPayLater debt. @effiezahos & @ProfRetail have a few tips to reduce this in the lead up to the festive spending period - one idea is to set up your own account as a type of 'BNPL facility' with your own saved money.

Do you remember when interest rates were above 7%? Brace yourself - one lender has made history with the lowest Australian rate yet

Australia is in its first recession in almost 30 years. Here's what it could mean for your hip pocket. https://t.co/LlFsraMirR

Just jumping on the cashback rewards train, and thinking how funny it is that seeing $2.29 in your @ShopBackAU account is somehow far more exciting than scoring a 'meh' $2 discount. Who's with me?

Getting through my personal to do list, and just made 'that call' to my lender who knocked 20 basis points off my home loan interest rate down to 3.24%, no questions asked. The whole process took about 7 minutes. It's time to pick up the phone, people!

Don’t be fooled by seeing people with the big house, white picket fence and BMW parked in the driveway. It does not mean they own these things, it may very well be the bank. Credit can allow you to buy things you simply cannot afford. 😳💳💰🏠

Could this be an unexpected upside of the collectables craze? https://t.co/YvtiZwmhQ3 #TheLionKing
