      There are several smart strategies to save money while shopping for Mother's Day gifts. First, if you're running out of time and need expedited shipping, consider buying gift cards at a discount instead. Websites allow you to buy discounted gift cards and sell your unused ones for cash, providing a small profit. Second, team up with friends to buy gifts in bulk and negotiate for a discount. This not only saves money but also allows you to share the savings with your friends. Third, take advantage of Mother's Day sales on products and activities. Booking an activity to do with your mom and then regifting the resulting item can result in a double win - quality time and a cost-effective gift. Lastly, remember that the real value of Mother's Day gifts comes from the thought and effort put into them, so don't feel guilty about regifting or seeking discounts.

    How To Build Generational Wealth

    How To Build Generational Wealth
    On Juneteenth we celebrate the end of slavery, acknowledge how much progress still needs to be made, and commit to make that progress. We can’t say that we live in an equal world while White Americans hold 84 percent of total U.S. wealth but make up only 60 percent of the population—while Black Americans hold 4 percent of the wealth and make up 13 percent of the population. Closing the racial wealth gap will take more than promotions and raises (although those are important too), it will take investments in multigenerational wealth. To give the roadmap to that wealth, Nicole passes the mic to investing expert and MNN host Dominique Broadway.
