Here are our fav tools to help you get your $.H.I.T (salary, home, investments, taxes) together!
HYSA  (high yield savings account)
STOP👏 KEEPING👏 YOUR 👏SAVINGS IN👏 A REGULAR CHECKINGS ACCOUNT. Open a HYSA instead. They earn 50x more interest than a traditional savings account. This is where you’ll keep your emergency fund as well as short-term savings :) 
Ally Bank
Best Bank
Axos is an online bank, which rocks bc going to the bank sucks. Don’t get me wrong- I love a free pen- but if I can do something on my phone instead of going in person- sign me up! They offer great interest rates, lots of checking account options and their app has a great interface! Not convinced? Google Axos Bank and read some reviews. People are obsessed.

Online Brokerage
If you wanna build your own portfolio, use public.com. It’s our fav brokerage! We love the way they let you see what money moves other investors are taking (follow me!)

Roboadvisory
Don’t get it twisted- you don’t need to manage your own portfolio to be a successful investor. Just use a roboadvisory, duh!  I obviously (and famously) recommend Wealthfront. Your money will compound while you live your damn life.

Student Loans / Personal Debt
Have debt you need to pay off? Use Sofi. They refinance your loans with a lower interest rate so you make a fixed monthly payment that allows you to make real progress on getting out of debt and into the next stage of your financial journey- building wealth.

Couponing
We are in the golden age of couponing. In that we don’t have to cut coupons! These websites and browser add-ons do the work for you. So you have more time to stalk European men at Cipriani.

Negotiating your bills is important but so is watching Succession. Trim helps you track your money & will also negotiate your cable and phone bills FOR YOU so you can watch more Cousin Greg.
