Issue #74: A last-minute gift from the Money team

December 23, 2020 // ISSUE #74

Hi y’all —

Dollar Scholar’s special end-of-year issue was last week, but I wanted to sneak in one last note before logging off to chug spiked eggnog and quote Elf for 48 straight hours.

My coworkers and I just published a big list of 21 smart money moves to make in 2021. We worked pretty hard on it, so take a look! I contributed three tips, but all of the info is useful — and guaranteed to help improve your financial life next year. We talk about beefing up your resume, maximizing credit card rewards, adjusting your taxes, navigating financial aid and so much more.

Now that I think about it, this guide is kind of like my Christmas gift to you. But don’t worry if you didn’t get me anything. Your undying affection (and commitment to never scrolling past my hard work) is more than enough.

Next year, though, how about a pony?

Here are some festive furry friends! Ro, Sigley, Emi, Mina and Zoey are all on the nice list this year. They’re feeling pawsionate about achieving their money goals in 2021.

Bring on the eggnog. And then bring on the Tums.

Happy Scholardays! See you in the new year.

P.S. I’m out of the office, but I’m still reading any and all messages you send to julia.glum@money.com or @SuperJulia. Send a letter to Santa, then send one to me. <3
