đ° In the news

Gold & silver are hot: Coming off goldâs best year since 1979, the momentum is carrying well into 2026 with silver remaining one of the most talked-about assets. Curious why theyâre back in focus? American Hartford Gold has a free guide that explains whatâs happening and how people are approaching it today. Itâs free â and definitely worth a read.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175/month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.
Highlights this week:

đŸ One pet emergency can cost $10,000+
Together with our sponsor Spot Pet Insurance
Nothing prepares you for a late-night emergency at the vet. I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache.
From the initial exam fee just to be seen, to x-rays, surgery, medication, and follow-up visits⊠the bill racks up fast (to say the least). And at that moment? Youâre not thinking about your savings, youâre just saying yes to whatever keeps them thriving.
As soon as we got home, I dug around online and ultimately signed up for Spot.
Itâs super affordable and reimburses up to 90% on qualified vet bills. It was too late for me, but itâs not too late for you. Sign up today.

𫶠We got your back
Weeknight flavor fix: Craving shareable starters and bold, globe-hopping comfort without the Salt Lake drive? Sabores in Logan delivers. Ceviche, lomo saltado, cochinita pibil… a lineup that inspires ‘let’s split a few’ texts and leaves plates clean every time.
Dial in your setup: Whether youâre tuning skis for Beaver or plotting spring miles in Logan Canyon, The Sportsman has the essentials: skis, bikes, packs, plus staff who actually know their stuff. A dialed kit means the next bluebird day or muddy trail moment meets you ready.
Classic film fix: At Utah Theatre, movie night stays old-school with rotating classics, occasional silents scored on the Mighty Wurlitzer, and a cozy locals-only vibe you canât stream. When the couch goes stale, trade it for velvet seats and a truly big screen.
Access cash without selling your home: A reverse mortgage can help anyone over 62 cover everyday expenses, support healthcare needs, fund home improvements, or even reduce pressure on 401(k) withdrawals â all while staying in your home. Longbridge offers a free calculator to estimate how much flexibility your home could provide, with no commitment required.
