When Saving Feels Impossible

Take charge of your finances

Living paycheck to paycheck is the reality for many Americans. And with little to no cash left over every month, saving money is that much harder. We recently surveyed 1,250 Americans about their finances and 42% say they don’t have $1,000 in emergency savings. Why? “Not enough income” was the No. 1 answer among our survey respondents. 

 

We’re all feeling it: This economy is tough — inflation is rising again, wages are stagnant and the job market is looking bleak. If you’re struggling to make ends meet, you certainly aren’t the only one. 

 

But there are ways to break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle and save a little for a rainy day. We’ve put together some strategies to help get you to financially sturdier ground.

Break the Cycle 
Together with Gravy Pass

Earn Money Right From Your Phone

Most rewards apps make you download the app, collect points you don’t understand, and then wait forever to turn them into gift cards. Not exactly worth the effort.

 

That’s why Gravy Pass feels like such a win. Instead of juggling another app, your rewards live right in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. You see your balance in actual dollars every time you check your phone, you know exactly what you’ve earned, and you can cash out fast.

It ties into stuff you’re already doing anyway, like shopping online or playing games. You don’t have to subscribe or mess around with converting points. Just real cash you can see and use, right from your pocket.

 

Sign up for free and get $1 to start — once it’s in your wallet, your cash is always just a tap away.
