A lot has happened in the world of personal finance over the past few weeks, and much of it could affect your wallet sooner than you think. Health insurance prices are going up again, Congress is changing the way Social Security talks about your retirement, and there's new help for student loan borrowers and retirement savers.
That's why in this episode of the podcast I'm doing a personal finance news update. I'll walk you through six stories, explain what they mean for you, and share what you can do about each one.
In this episode you will learn:
-
- Why ACA marketplace premiums are rising again for 2027, and how to shop smart during open enrollment
- How Congress is renaming Social Security's claiming ages, and why the new labels could lead to better decisions
- How the new Defaulted Loans Support Center helps student loan borrowers get out of default
- How the new Saver's Match could add up to $1,000 a year to your retirement account, and who qualifies
- What a new bill would mean for workers in physically demanding jobs who want to retire at 60
- What's new with the 2027–28 FAFSA, and why filing early can pay off
