The Daily Money
 
Tuesday, December 7

Greetings and salutations, Daily Money readers. Jayme Deerwester with you again this Tuesday morning.

CLIMATE CHANGE AND RENTERS:  As of October of this year, the U.S. has experienced 18 weather and climate disaster events with losses exceeding $1 billion each. While property owners can get access to low-interest loans and receive an insurance payout, there is not much protection for renters beyond getting the security deposit back and breaking the lease if the dwelling is uninhabitable, say experts.

💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: Many of us take our checking accounts for granted. But millions of Americans don't have a bank account, which means they had trouble accessing stimulus and child tax credit payments during the pandemic because they had no place to deposit the money. The situation has accelerated efforts to help the "unbanked" get their own accounts.
