Frequently Ask Questions

What should my first money priority be?

A strong foundation matters more than chasing the highest return. For most households that means three steps: cover essential bills, build a basic emergency fund and get employer retirement matches so you do not leave free money unclaimed.

How much should I save and invest every month?

The right number depends on age, income stability and goals, but many people aim to invest 15–20% of gross income for long‑term goals once high‑interest debt is under control. We help you decide how to split contributions between retirement, taxable accounts and short‑term priorities.

When does it make sense to refinance or consolidate debt?

Refinancing a mortgage or rolling high‑interest balances into a lower‑rate loan can be helpful when the new rate, term and fees reduce your total cost and support your bigger goals. We compare scenarios so you can see the impact on interest paid, cash flow and payoff dates before you decide.

How much insurance coverage do I really need?

Coverage should reflect people who rely on your income, debts that must be repaid, major goals you want funded and the assets you already have. We outline simple rules of thumb for life, disability, health and property insurance and show where custom calculations make sense.

Will working with Daily Money Insights replace my advisor or tax pro?

No. Our role is education, organization and scenario‑building. We help you ask better questions and come prepared to conversations with lenders, advisors, accountants and attorneys so professional advice is easier to act on.

What does it cost to get guidance?

Many of our checklists, tools and articles are free to use. If you choose one‑on‑one support, we discuss transparent pricing up front so you can decide whether DIY resources, a focused session or an ongoing partnership is the best fit.

Can you help if I am outside the United States?

Our frameworks for budgeting, saving, borrowing and investing are country‑agnostic, but tax rules and product availability are always local. We focus on principles and planning concepts and encourage you to confirm any country‑specific details with a local professional.
