He specifically talks about how people can make a quick buck around the holiday season. A lot of people use the end of the year to take a look back at what they spent, and try to create a budget for the new year. Auriemma says you should attempt to adjust your bills: cancel memberships you don't use, switch phone carriers, cut the cord, etc. Plus, why you should never buy lotto tickets! Auriemma says Americans spend more than $70 billion a year on lottery tickets and your chances of winning....are well, slim to none.

Trump Administration Shutters Consumer Protection Agency
The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
