| Let the countdown begin: five more days until Christmas. 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 |
| It's Brett Molina filling in this week with the latest headlines in Money and Tech. |
| Could the government leave Americans a bonus gift this holiday in the form of a stimulus check? Yes and no. Don't expect an extra check from the federal government, but seven states – California, Florida, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Tennessee – have passed legislation to provide checks to residents. |
| 💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY. Low-wage workers across the country are slated to get big pay increases. Twenty-one states and 35 cities and counties plan to raise the minimum wage on or about New Year's Day, according to a report from the worker advocacy group National Employment Law Project (NELP). |
| Other stories you won't want to miss: |
| Have an IRA? The deadline for contributing to your account in 2021 isn't Dec. 31. |
| Social Security COLAs. The surprising truth about your 2022 raise. |
| Check your bathrooms. There's a recall on dry shampoos and conditioners. |
| Holiday shopping. Get your loved one a video game console? Before you wrap it, make sure you set it up first. |
| Traveling this holiday? Stay off the road at these times. |
| YOUR DOSE OF CHRISTMAS SPIRIT. Nothing like a good movie to get you in the mood to celebrate the holidays. So, of course, I'm going with one of the best ever: the Bill Murray classic "Scrooged." |
