If you’re carrying a credit card balance, knowing your interest rate might seem like a no-brainer. Unfortunately, for many cardholders, it’s not. In a December Bankrate study, 41% of card-holders carrying a balance didn’t know their interest rate. Currently, the average interest rate on cards is about 16%, but rates can go as high as 25% or more. The Federal Reserve Board is expected to start raising short-term interest rates in March in an effort to keep inflation in check. As those rates increase, interest rates on credit cards , home equity lines of credit and other loan products will go up as well, which means it will cost you more to pay off your debt. If you’re carrying a balance on a high-interest-rate card, plan to pay it off as soon as possible, without adding any new purchases. If you receive a tax refund —and most taxpayers do—use that money to pay down your debt. Even if the refund doesn’t pay off the balance in full, the reduced total will trim the amount of interest assessed.

Instagram isn’t exactly known for its fidelity to reality. It’s a place people go to curate an image of their best self, or their aspirational one. But rarely do those images obscure a darker truth to the extent they did back in 2019, in a pair of posts by two public figures from Nigeria. On Dec. 8, Ramon Abbas, better known as @hushpuppi, Ray Hushpuppi, or the Billionaire Gucci Master, posted a photo of himself lounging on the hood of his purple Rolls-Royce. His outfit, designed by the legendary Virgil Abloh, was a sky blue shirt-and-pants set with a white cloud that appeared to float across his forearms and midriff. He’d parked the Rolls in the driveway of the Palazzo Versace Dubai, a resort-style hotel where he lived in a penthouse apartment. For Abbas, then a 37-year-old influencer who’d gone from a childhood in a poor part of Lagos to an adulthood full of private jets and celebrity friends, this sort of extremely conspicuous consumption was his brand. “I don’t believe in competition,” read the post’s caption.
