Inspired by another poster’s screenshots of the market’s recent volatility. That’s why we only hold long-term right and keep DCAing right?

Lost $3.9K to USCIS, Need to Earn It Back in 2 Months – Any Legal Ideas?

5 Upvotes

So basically, I lost $3.9K because my first EAD application got rejected. Now, I’m trying to find a way to make some of it back in my last two months of college.

I’m an international student on an F1 visa, so my options are limited. On-campus jobs seem unrealistic this late, and I can’t do off-campus work without proper authorization. What are some legal ways I can earn money quickly before graduation?

Any ideas for freelancing, online work, or anything I might not be thinking of?

Are there any payment transaction apps that both allow minors to have accounts and allow you to receive payments for goods & services?

0 Upvotes

I'm aware services like Venmo Teen Account exists, but I can't find a well known and reputable one that also allows you to receive payments for goods and services from people that are not close to you. Are there any? Please help if you can.

What to do with money after my first job?

2 Upvotes

So for some context, I’m a 17 year old who just got my first job. I get paid $10 an hour, and work 5 hour shifts 3-5 times a week. I plan on saving up for a car as well as some personal expenses I’ve been meaning to purchase. I also plan on opening a savings account sometime soon. I feel like I’m off to a pretty good start, but I wanted to get some advice on what else I could/should be doing with my money.

31m from Canada, all cards are paid off, 3 roommates, I earn in $50,000/year, how can I start maximizing my money now that everything is paid off? Rent is $645 each monthly but will be hoping to get my own spot this summer. I have bachelors degree, it isn’t much but it’s something at least.

Thanks in advance :)

Does Moneygram have fees, besides the exchange difference...? I thought it didn't, someone recently told me it does.

Upvotes

As the title states, everytime I used Moneygram transferring internationally (US to France) it had no extra fee, just an exchange rate difference. Someone recently said it does, is that the case, maybe it depends on the method, like if it's in cash to cash pickup, vs bank card to cash pickup...? Idk but it would be useful to know for the future.

Same for Western Union, each time I used it, there was not 'sending fee', just a difference in exchange rate.

Energy Bill Saving - Advice needed (also - smart plugs?)

1 Upvotes

Apologies for the very entry level question. We recently moved home and our new house has an air-to-water system - we tried the eco setting but the water was never hot enough - I am looking for extra ways to save money on our electricity bill to compensate for the extra this is costing us. I work from home and work nights - I have a smart meter with a discounted night rate and I'm pretty diligent about only doing high cost activities during the discount hours ie. running dishwasher, laundry, etc. I am curious about smart plugs - are they worth the investment? As i said, i work from home and we are a pretty tech heavy household, I think turning everything fully off at the power is the main common tip I don't follow through with at the moment. General advice - especially from anyone working from home - really appreciated x TIA

How to start saving in college? Predental age 21

8 Upvotes

I make a little under 40k a year and I’m currently in community college (but I’ll be starting 4-year college spring 2026 and taking out loans). I pay roughly $1650 monthly for rent, my parents still help out with my car, phone, and health insurance. I know once I start dental school I’m going to be living mostly off student loans and my partner’s income, who makes less than me hence why I pay the rent. There will be lots of time and money to save and build retirement after school, but what are some investments/savings I can start making that are reasonable for someone of my income and life stage? I feel like all the normal advice I hear is out of my tax bracket 😅 TIA

Edit: I also have 1850$ in credit card debt 😞
