The Daily Money
 
Friday, March 5

It's finally Friday, Daily Money subscribers. It's Brett Molina back in your inbox with another round of Money and Tech headlines.

But first our ... 

INSIGHT OF THE DAY: If you were financially impacted by the pandemic, you might be eligible for a tax break. Some filers can get a break for the Earned Income Tax Credit, for low to moderate income working individuals and couples. There are other mistakes you could make on those tax returns if you're not careful. But don't sweat it, finance reporter Jessica Menton has you covered.

As for the rest of the news ...

1. Hiring has started to rebound. With more Americans getting vaccinated as cases of COVID-19 dropping, the economy is adding more jobs.

2. A new Social Security scam? This one features people impersonating agency employees by sending images of fake badges.

3. Keep a close eye on that credit report. Complaints about errors are on the rise. Here's how to fix your report if you spot a mistake.

4. Ditch the penny stocks. Instead, consider these three investments.

5. Chipotle is launching a line of cosmetics. No, I did not make this up.

Thanks for subscribing, and have a great weekend!
