Money Challenge-Day 10-Credit Cards
Do you have a credit card? I think they’re fine to have as long as you pay off your debt each month. You seem to have one to do just about anything like book a car rental or hotel room so it’s a great idea to pick one that has some type of perk like cash back bonuses or points you earn toward travel. Note here don’t use it just to get those perks.

Money Challenge-Day Seven-Stock and Broth
It’s the end of the first week of the challenge. How are things going so far? We’ll conclude this first week with yet another challenge that’s about using up everything we buy. We’re going to make stock and bone broth. Don’t throw away vegetable peelings, chicken bones, beef bones, instead turn them into stock and broth that you can use throughout the week in things like soups, gravy, stews and chilis. They’re a whole lot better for you than the processed kind. ‘See’ you again tomorrow.
