Stop Living Paycheck to Paycheck by Doing This 1 Thing, Says a Self-Made Millionaire
Over one-third of Americans (34%) currently live paycheck to paycheck, a recent GOBankingRates survey found. And, according to the same survey, 18% of Americans have nothing saved. However, the solution to breaking the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle lies within having a financial cushion saved up. Find Out: Read Next: 'The fastest way out of the paycheck-to-paycheck trap is to create a cash flow cushion,' said Bernadette Joy, a financial coach and self-made millionaire. Here's what that entails, why you need one and how to build it. Why You Need a Cash Flow Cushion Joy recommends building a 'cash flow cushion' by keeping at least one month's worth of expenses in your regular checking account. 'This way, you're never anxiously waiting for your next paycheck to cover rent or groceries,' she told GOBankingRates. 'It gives you breathing room, prevents overdraft fees and allows you to make financial decisions from a place of confidence instead of desperation.' Be Aware: How To Build Your Cushion The first thing you need to do is calculate how much you need to save up to serve as your cash flow cushion. In her book, 'Crush Your Money Goals,' Joy explains that this should contain enough to cover your rent or mortgage, utilities, food, transportation and essential health expenses for one month. Once you know how much you need, take whatever steps are necessary to save that amount up. 'This might involve reallocating some of your savings or adjusting your budget to prioritize building your cash flow cushion,' Joy wrote in her book. Joy also said that it's important to maintain this cushion once you've built it. 'Many checking accounts will allow you to set an alert when your balance reaches below a certain threshold,' she wrote. 'If one month's worth of expenses for you is $5,000, aim to always have at least $5,000 in your checking account and alert yourself it goes below that.' Survey methodology: GOBankingRates surveyed 1,006 Americans ages 18 and older across the country between Dec. 6 and Dec. 9, 2024, asking 24 different questions: (1) What is your preferred method of banking?; (2) How optimistic are you that you will add more than $2,000 to your savings account balance over the next year?; (3) How much do you anticipate your savings account balance to change over the next year?; (4) How would you characterize your current level of stress when it comes to your current savings?; (5) How much is the minimum balance you keep in your checking account?; (6) How much do you currently have in your savings account?; (7) How much of your paycheck do you put in your checking account?; (8) How much of your paycheck do you put into your savings account?; (9) How satisfied are you with your current bank?; (10) What's the worst part about your current banking situation?; (11) If you could change one thing about your current banking situation, what would it be?; (12) Which of the following bank accounts do you currently use/have open? (Select all that apply); (13) Which type of banking account do you trust the most to keep your money safe?; (14) Which type of banking account do you trust the LEAST to keep your money safe?; (15) Do you trust digital banks (neobanks, online-only banks) as much as traditional banks with physical branches?; (16) In the past year, how often have you written a physical check?; (17) When was the last time you chose to visit your bank in-person?; (18) Are you concerned about the rising number of physical bank branches that have shut down in the past few years?; (19) Have you had an overdraft on your checking account in the past year?; (20) How much cash do you keep at home?; (21) Do you believe the current banking system needs to change?; (22) Do you believe the current banking system benefits the rich more than the middle class or lower middle class?; (23) Do you believe the current U.S. banking system is unfair to Americans of lower economic status?; and (24) How have the results of the 2024 presidential election affected your financial outlook going into 2025 and beyond?. GOBankingRates used PureSpectrum's survey platform to conduct the poll.

Google mocks Apple's AI struggles as it launches Pixel 10 smartphones: ‘Game-changing phone'
Google on Wednesday unveiled a new line-up of Pixel smartphones injected with another dose of artificial intelligence that's designed to do everything from fetch vital information stored on the devices to help improve photos as they're being taken. The AI expansion on the four Pixel 10 models amplifies Google's efforts to broaden the use of a technology that is already starting to reshape society. At the same time, Google is taking a swipe at Apple's Achilles' heel on the iPhone. Apple so far has only been able to introduce a few basic AI features on the iPhone while failing to deliver on last year's promise to deliver a more conversational and versatile version of its often-blundering virtual assistant Siri. 7 The AI expansion on the four Pixel 10 models amplifies Google's efforts to broaden the use of a technology that is already starting to reshape society. REUTERS Without mentioning the iPhone by name, Google has already been mocking Apple's missteps in online ads promoting the four new Pixel models as smartphones loaded with AI technology that consumers won't have to wait for more than a year to arrive. 'There has been a lot of hype about this and, frankly, a lot of broken promises, too,' Google executive Rick Osterloh said during a 75-minute presentation in New York about the new Pixel phones. The event was emceed by late-night TV show host Jimmy Fallon. Google, in contrast, has been steadily increasing the amount of AI that it began to implant on its Pixels since 2023, with this year's models taking it to another level. 'We think this year we have a game-changing phone with game-changing technology,' Osterloh said. 7 Jimmy Fallon with Google executive Adrienne Lofton on Wednesday. REUTERS 7 'We think this year we have a game-changing phone with game-changing technology,' Google executive Rick Osterlohsaid. REUTERS Taking advantage of a more advanced processor, Google is introducing a new AI feature on the Pixel 10 phones called 'Magic Cue' that's designed to serve as a digital mind reader that automatically fetches information stored on the devices and displays the data at the time it's needed. For instance, if a Pixel 10 user is calling up an airline, Magic Cue is supposed to instantaneously recognize the phone number and display the flight information if it's in Gmail or a Google Calendar. 7 The prices on all four Pixel 10 models will remain unchanged from last year's Pixel 9 generation. REUTERS The Pixel 10 phones will also come with a preview feature of a new AI tool called 'Camera Coach' that will automatically suggest the best framing and lighting angle as the lens is being aimed at a subject. Camera Coach will also recommend the best lens mode to use for an optimal picture. The premium models — Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL — will also include a 'Super Res' option that deploys a grab bag of software and AI tricks to zoom up to 100 times the resolution to capture the details of objects located miles away from the camera.

Check out more newsletters The AI wizardry could happen without users even realizing it's happening, making it even more difficult to know whether an image captured in a photo reflects how things really looked at the time a picture was taken or was modified by technology. The Pixel 10 will also be able to almost instantaneously translate phone conversations into a range of different languages using the participants own voices. 7 Pixel 10 Pro Fold phone. REUTERS Google is also offering a free one-year subscription to its AI Pro plan to anyone who buys the more expensive Pixel 10 Pro or Pixel 10 Pro XL models in hopes of hooking more people on the Gemini toolkit it has assembled to compete against OpenAI's ChatGPT. The prices on all four Pixel 10 models will remain unchanged from last year's Pixel 9 generation, with the basic starting at $800 and the Pro selling for $1,000, the Pro XL at $1,200 and a foldable version at $1,800. All the Pixel 10s expect the foldable model will be in stores on August 28. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold will be available starting October 9. Although the Pixel smartphone remains a Lilliputian next to the Gulliverian stature of the iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy models, Google's ongoing advances in AI while holding the line on its marquee devices raise the competitive stakes. 7 Pixel Buds REUTERS 7 Google Pixel Watch 4 REUTERS 'In the age of AI, it is a true laboratory of innovation,' Forrester Research analyst Thomas Husson said of the Pixel. Apple, in particular, will be facing more pressure than usual when it introduces the next-generation iPhone next month. Although the company has already said the smarter Siri won't be ready until next year at the earliest, Apple will still be expected to show some progress in AI to demonstrate the iPhone is adapting to technology's AI evolution rather than tilting toward gradual obsolescence. Clinging to a once-successful formula eventually sank the BlackBerry and its physical keyboard when the iPhone and its touch screen came along nearly 20 years ago. Apple's pricing of the next iPhone will also be under the spotlight, given that the devices are made in China and India — two of the prime targets in President Donald Trump's trade war. But Apple appeared to gain a reprieve from Trump's most onerous threats earlier this month by adding another $100 billion on top of an earlier $500 billion investment pledge to the US. The tariff relief may enable Apple to minimize or even avoid price increases for the iPhone, just as Google has done with the Pixel 10 models.
