Always a good weekend when I'm on @cnn.com. Today's message: Don't beat yourself up if you haven't started saving for retirement. But start doing the work now. Your future self will thank you.

Rising costs may have you considering new ways to save money. But can you be too cheap? I’ve heard some pretty extreme stories over the years, like the reader who would reuse tea bags three time! Tell me your wackiest money-saving story. You may be featured in my next column or on my social media.

QOTD: Should you be able to claim your pet as a dependent on your tax return? I see a lot of strange questions during tax season but this is a new one 🧵

The pleasure of picking out a unique gift you believe someone will appreciate has been replaced by the mandatory wish list. And is it me or are more adults feeling emboldened to ask for extraordinarily expensive items, making the holidays feel more like money grabs than a time for thoughtfulness?

a red holiday gift box is open with a question inside asking "should adults have holiday gift lists?"

Paying your bills on time is the No. 1 way to fix your credit. Every debt. Every month. On time. No secret. No trick. So there’s no need to pay some company hundreds of dollars or more to “repair” your credit. Here are the basics, all things you can do yourself.
