Reddit's Most Unhinged Money Hacks

You can find a lot of wild and wacky stuff on Reddit. Some of it is comical, some of it is bawdy. No small amount of it is weird. A lot of it makes you grateful for your own life — and for your common sense. There's no stone of human experience that Redditors will leave unturned, including everything from the existence of aliens to personal finance tips. Read Next: Check Out: While there are some very smart personal finance tips out there, penned by people who are professionals in the field or in communities dedicated to renowned experts, there are also a lot of money hacks that feel, well, the word unhinged comes to mind. GOBankingRates had a fine time finding some of the most unhinged money hacks on Reddit. Please, dear reader, don't try some of these at home. Getting Creative on Marketplace When members of the Ask Reddit community were asked about how they'd make money in a pinch, two people shared their very unique money-making hack, which fused creativity with a dash of duplicity. Redditor stonedfishing had a very simple plan to make a few extra bucks: 'Find rocks on the beach, spray them with clearcoat, and sell them on marketplace as artisanal decorations.' So, if you bought any decor from stonedfishing, you probably could have done this yourself for less money. Not to be outdone, _coffee_ shared that they did a similar thing with old wooden doors. Strip off the hinges and knobs, give them a good clean or polish, and voila, you can sell 'em as tabletops. Now that is some rustic chic. Learn More: Freezing Out Utilities Bills Keeping your home cool in the hot months and warm in the cold months can cost you, it's true. But Redditor duyli was undaunted — and frankly, unhinged — in their suggestion for saving money on utilities: 'Unplugged my fridge in winter. Nature's cold, why pay twice?' Saving a buck is great, but there are some things you do need to splurge on — and proper food sanitation is one of them. If you nosh on certain kinds of unrefrigerated foods, you could end up spending everything you saved on utilities bills, and then some, on a hospital stay. So, um, please don't try this. Highway to the Danger Zone? You can also put this tip firmly in the 'do not try this at home — or anywhere' category. When Redditors were asked how they save money while traveling, people in one thread shared a rather unconventional tip — traveling to a global geo-political hot spot to save money on tickets while avoiding long wait times and benefiting from enhanced security. 'I booked Peru early 2023 when all that political stuff was going down,' HappyPenguin2023 recalled. 'Got super cheap prices and everything had settled down by the time we went in July — but crowds were still really low!' Another user chimed in, sharing that, by booking their travel to Bogota during huge protests, they were able to save 60% on hotel costs. That's One Way To Earn Credit Card Points Once upon a time, Redditor Perfect_Zone_4919 had a perfect scheme for racking up those valuable credit card points: 'Shut down now, but I used to buy golden dollar coins from the mint with a credit card. They had free shipping and no tax because they wanted to get them in circulation. As soon as they arrived, I'd cash them in at the bank and repeat. Built up huge reward points on my card.' Avoid Those Check Bag Fees by Any Means Necessary Redditor kacombs may say that they look like 'an eccentric weirdo at the airport' but one person's eccentricity is another person's thriftiness. And this Redditor will go to some fashion extremes to save money on checking a bag: 'I always wear several layers of clothing to avoid checking a bag (even when it's hot) and I always wear my biggest pair of shoes (usually hiking boots). I also wear a fanny pack under my sweatshirt/coat and sometimes I stuff a neck pillow (or even just regular pillowcase) with clothes,' they wrote. 'Most airlines have policies to not charge for a pillow and it's honestly none of anyone's business whether my pillow is filled with down/fiberfill or cotton and polyester lol.' Is this comfortable? Of course not, but to make it bearable, they'll hide tote bags to switch up items. Oh, and they've also been known to put clothes and other items in a plain brown paper bag, making it seem like they've gone shopping at the airport to avoid those bag check fees. Well, we promised some unhinged money hacks from Reddit, and we delivered. But seriously, don't try most of these at home.

Leading Hydrogen Producer May Abandon U.S. Projects Due to Trump's Actions

A Germany-headquartered company involved in the global hydrogen industry said it plans to abandon some of its projects in the U.S. due to actions from the Trump administration. Werner Ponikwar, chief executive of Thyssenkrupp Nucera, on August 13 said the company has been in discussions with stakeholders in its U.S. hydrogen projects and would cancel any that are no longer deemed viable due to tax and spending changes from the U.S. government. Ponikwar noted that global demand for green hydrogen, which is produced using renewable energy resources, has been curtailed as governments sort out what President Trump's policies, including elimination of tax credits for low-carbon energy sources, mean for the hydrogen industry. "We have sorted out all projects that have less chance of being realized due to the new framework conditions in the U.S.," Ponikwar said in a media call Wednesday after the company's earnings call with investors. Ponikwar noted that the administration's tax and spending rules are making it more difficult to develop clean energy projects in the U.S., particularly by phasing out renewable energy tax credits after 2026 if projects have not started construction. Ponikwar did say, though, that a revision in the deadline to year-end 2027 for projects to start construction could keep some U.S. projects in development, particularly those already in advanced stages. "We are convinced that the hydrogen electrolysis market continues to offer enormous potential," Ponikwar said. The executive said Thyssenkrupp Nucera will continue to be active in the U.S., though it will use resources "for other purposes" if hydrogen projects are canceled. Thyssenkrupp Nucera is the world's leading provider of electrolysis technology, the process used to produce hydrogen. The company said it has improved its revenue and profit year-over-year through the first nine months of its fiscal year, and is on track to achieve its financial targets for the full fiscal year. 'Thanks to its business model and strict cost management, Thyssenkrupp Nucera continues to generate positive free cash flow even in this difficult market for hydrogen solutions. This underscores our stable financial position," said Dr. Stefan Hahn, chief financial officer of Thyssenkrupp Nucera. The company in June of this year strengthened its strategic technology portfolio with the acquisition of a modular high-pressure electrolysis solution from Danish company Green Hydrogen Systems (GHS). The high-pressure electrolysis developed by GHS operates highly efficiently at up to 35 bar operating pressure, which is considered advantageous for certain industrial applications where hydrogen is required in compressed form. Thyssenkrupp Nucera previously has entered into a strategic collaboration with Germany's Fraunhofer IKTS on high-temperature electrolysis technology, known as SOEC. A pilot production plant for SOEC stacks was opened in Arnstadt, Germany, in May. "By further expanding our strategic technology portfolio, we at Thyssenkrupp Nucera are enabling hydrogen solutions with optimized levelized cost of hydrogen. This makes green hydrogen more attractive,' said Klaus Ohlig, the company's chief technology officer. Officials said Thyssenkrupp Nucera provided technology for about 1.5 GW of hydrogen production last year, with similar or better growth expected this year. "Europe is currently the most promising market. We are currently working on engineering orders totaling 1.5 gigawatts of electrolysis capacity," said Ponikwar. "This clearly shows that thyssenkrupp nucera's pipeline of green hydrogen projects is maturing and industrial projects are progressing. We are therefore looking ahead with confidence." Said Ponikwar: "Green hydrogen, a climate-friendly energy source, is and will remain the central pillar of the decarbonization strategies required by industry worldwide. The growth prospects for the hydrogen market remain intact, despite the challenges currently facing the global hydrogen market. With more than 60 years of experience in electrolysis technology, we at Thyssenkrupp Nucera have the necessary technological expertise." Ponikwar added, "although large-scale projects naturally have longer development times ... we remain one of the most sought-after partners on the market.' —Darrell Proctor is a senior editor for POWER.

View Photos of the 2026 Ruf Tribute

Read the Full Story The 2026 Ruf Tribute features a completely new air-cooled flat-six engine engineered and built by the famous Porsche 911 fiddler. Ruf showed off the production version of the 2026 Tribute during Monterey Car Week. The Tribute's body panels are entirely rendered in carbon fiber. Impressively, the Tribute meets all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and recently passed emissions testing. The only transmission is a seven-speed manual. The first Tributes, which are hand-built in Germany, will be delivered in 2026. The aluminum 3.6-liter dry-sump engine makes 543 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque. Underpinning the Tribute is a carbon-fiber tub with front and rear aluminum subframes. Ruf's claimed curb weight of roughly 2800 pounds makes the Tribute lighter than a Carrera 2 we tested in 1990. The Tribute starts at $1.7 million based on the current Euro-to-dollar exchange rate. Ruf expects to build between 50 and 100 Tributes over the next five years.
