AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoTax Payments: Australia’s government acknowledged it knew for months that the tax office planned to stop credit-card payments, before the proposal was delayed after a backlash. Household Budgets: More than a quarter of Americans say they spend beyond their income, while 54% regularly run short before payday. Rising costs and debt are making it harder to save and pay bills. Credit-Card Debt: With average interest at 22.15% on balances accruing interest, consolidation may help: a 0% balance-transfer card can offer 12–21 months of relief, usually for a 3%–5% fee, while a personal loan can provide fixed payments. Watch the promotional end date and avoid adding new card debt. Banking Choices: Customers who stay with a bank despite fees or poor savings rates may be paying for convenience; reviewing direct deposits and automatic payments can make switching less daunting.
