Personal Finance and Investing

Another way to help your financial situation is to get out of debt. There are apps out there like Acorn that also does the round-up and then when you reach a certain amount will send it to whomever you owe. There are some that you can hook up to any bill you want to pay off, but I have a specific one for paying off my student loan. My monthly payment is 67.25, but I hit the threshold of $100 (at which point it sends the money) twice a month so I'm paying $267.25 more or less painlessly, which is right at 4 payments a month, but I have it set at a pretty aggressive level as well.

Once you've got stuff paid off, you can invest more.
