The key to developing a good habit is to make it as easy as possible.

In the context of managing our money, that means setting up a system that requires the smallest amount of effort possible to maintain.

To start, you’ll need to know how much money to set aside each week or month to meet your money goals.

businessinsider.com/master-your-mo…
We’re all about automation. After you figure out how much you’ll need to set aside, set up recurring transfers to your accounts. It’s that easy!

Now that you have your system set up, mark a day on your calendar to make sure it’s working properly each month.

There was a time when having a @Polaroid was like having a new iPhone. At its peak, it controlled almost two-thirds of the instant camera market in the US.

But the digital revolution offered a new type of instant image, leaving Polaroid exposed. 👇
Edwin Land, the man behind Polaroid, wasn't thinking about instant film when he started out. It was his three-year-old daughter who inspired his groundbreaking invention after a day of taking photos on a Rolleiflex camera.
Photo depicting Edwin Land,...
In 1947, Land revealed instant film to the world with his own self-portrait.

The following year, Polaroid launched its first instant camera and sold out in a day, even though they cost the equivalent of $1,000 today.

10 years ago, Occupy Wall Street decried income inequality following the global financial crisis that rocked homeowners across the US.

Today, Wall Street still holds sway in Washington and corporations are paying pennies in taxes.

On the 10th anniversary of Occupy Wall Street, Insider spoke with a host of Occupy participants and observers of the movement: the original organizers, city officials, Wall Street traders, and lawyers on both sides of the battle.

Most of those we spoke with acknowledged that Occupy sparked a global conversation about wealth inequality that continues to this day. But, the wealth gap has widened, raising questions about the movement’s success.

We visited three marijuana companies across the US to see why cannabis industry regulations are so tough to follow and how they're keeping entire communities out of the growing industry.
Since marijuana is still illegal on the federal level, every state has free rein on how to regulate it. Some states may require you to have $250,000 cash on hand, which begins to immediately lock out whole communities from starting marijuana companies. businessinsider.com/marijuana-lega… Photo depicting different c...
Will and Adriana wanted to start a farm in California. But there, a license to grow can cost almost $80,000, with an $8,000 application fee. That's a lot more than a liquor license in California, which can cost just over $15,000 max.

Employees have long been forced to negotiate their salaries in the dark.

But that's changing, thanks to a nationwide wave of "pay transparency" laws. 👇

When it comes to salaries, you make your best guess of how much to ask for, based on the few tidbits about pay ranges that you've been able to glean from friends, co-workers, and job apps, and then you negotiate in the dark.

It's a system of secrecy that benefits employers.

But that's all about to change. A growing number of states are enacting measures known as "pay transparency," which force companies to disclose their compensation levels.
