Have you changed how you do business under the current circumstances? If so, please leave us a voicemail and tell us about it.
For example, Brad’s CrossFit gym is running their classes on Zoom.
Core Expenses
It’s important to understand your baseline spending. What does your life actually cost?
Now is a good time to go through your expenses line by line and see if you can find any savings.
Brad recently saved money on his life insurance by shopping around.
- Policygenius is a great place to shop around for many types of insurance.
- Metromile has pay per mile car insurance which might be a good fit if you are “sheltering in place”.
- Lemonade also saved Jonathan some money on home insurance as well.
