4 Steps to Slash Subscriptions
In the old days it was easy to spot a subscription or membership you no longer needed or wanted. A package from the Jelly of the Month club would come in the mail, you would wonder why you ordered it. But these days, it's much harder to spot unwanted subscriptions because they are software, apps, or other services. Today on MoneyWise Rob West and Steve Moore have four steps to slash those automatic debits from your checking account. Next, they answer your questions at (800) 525-7000 and [email protected] about the following: -I have a pension and still work. Should I take Social Security as soon as I can and just save the money and invest it? -I was disabled a few years ago. It took many years before I could get my SSI payments, and I covered my expenses with my credit cards. I owe more money than I can pay. How do I dig myself out? -I'm retired, and I just found out that if I pass away, my pension will go back into the plan and not be distributed to my family. Can I take that money and invest it myself? -I'm 51 and retired from the military. A couple of years ago, I did not work a full time job, but still contributed to my Roth IRA. I now realize I shouldn't have done that. How do I fix it?
