The Daily Money
 
Tuesday, September 15

Welcome to Tuesday, Daily Money readers. It's Brett Molina back with another round of Money and Tech headlines.

We're barely halfway through September, but retailers are already thinking about the holiday shopping season. Specifically, how much money are we planning to spend?

Social Security checks are expected to increase in 2021. But don't get too excited. An estimate from the Senior Citizens League suggests a 1.3% cost-of-living adjustment next year. For the average retiree receiving a check of $1,517 this year, it's an extra $19.70 a month.

For the tech lovers out there: Apple is expected to introduce a new iPad and Apple Watch, and preview iOS 14. Here's what to expect.

Finally, many home sellers will entice potential buyers with a home warranty. But are they worth it

Scroll down for even more Money and Tech news. And, as always, thanks for reading.
