if there's a really good way to bring ads inside your car, I'm happy someone patented it. it means fewer people will use it

check where your retirement and savings are invested. buy a low cost index fund (fidelity and vanguard have great ones).

do not invest in any funds that have high fees. (there are plenty of good funds with fees around 0.1%)

I split my savings between:

  • total domestic stock index
  • total international stock index
  • cash/money market/bonds
  • a small amount in a sector fund with higher growth potential (e. g. tech) or risky investments

also if you're married and spouse goes back to work, make sure you get the withholdings correct. otherwise it's a hefty chunk you'll owe April 15th
