Americans are moving less, thanks to a stagnant labor market and a near-frozen housing market. But 20-somethings are bucking that trend, a new report shows, and those younger people are moving for reasons both new and familiar. The report comes from the Bank of America Institute, and it’s based on data from millions of bank customer accounts. Over the past three years, it shows, Americans are moving far less frequently. That’s especially true for millennials (those born between 1978 and 1995) and members of Gen X, who were born between 1965 and 1977. Where Gen Z Is Going — and…

Has tipping gotten out of hand? In a new survey by Popmenu, more than 3 out of 4 people — or 78% — said they believed that tipping practices have become ridiculous. Forty-four percent say they’re tipping less this year than last year. Consumers aren’t shy about expressing their tip fatigue online and on social media sites. “I can’t enjoy a weekend without at least 5 prompts to tip for doing absolutely nothing,” one user on Reddit said about tipping fatigue. “The anxiety that comes from this false pressure to tip a percentage on every bill is ludicrous.” “What have…
For the first time in its history, Medicare is about to cover weight-loss drugs. Starting July 1, seniors who qualify can get Wegovy or Zepbound for just $50 a month through a new program called the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. That’s a massive deal. These drugs typically cost more than $1,000 a month at list price. And for decades, federal law banned Medicare from covering any medication prescribed solely for weight loss. So $50 sounds like a miracle. But before you call your doctor, you need to understand what you’re actually signing up for. Here are seven things every Medicare beneficiary…
If you want to fly from Fort Lauderdale to New York next weekend, you could pay as little as $146 on Spirit Airlines — at least $100 less than tickets on another airline, according to Google Flights. But that deal comes with a big potential downside. Spirit Airlines is in dire financial straits.

Nearly 97% of the 1,507 Americans surveyed in February by financial services firm JG Wentworth said they had health insurance. Still, a whopping 94.7% of the insured said they still worry about hospital bills. On average, a $4,354 tab would be the financial breaking point for Americans. Seven in ten Americans said an unexpected medical bill under $10,000 would hamper their ability to cover essential expenses. To put that in perspective, the average cost to stay just…
Apps like Cash App, Venmo, PayPal and Zelle are now routine for making payments and transferring money in the United States, but the State Department is reminding Americans not to depend on those too heavily abroad. “Our consular sections around the world have seen many Americans run into problems accessing money abroad due to relying on apps. Some common cash transfer apps in the United States do NOT work abroad,” the department’s Bureau of Consular Affairs posted on X. “If you are traveling outside of the United States make sure you have access to a credit or debit card that…
