Just before the holidays, Congress passed a new $900BN coronavirus relief bill that contains another round of stimulus payments for taxpayers. The new stimulus package has $600 checks for individuals earning up to $75,000 in 2019 and couples earning $150,000 – half the value of the first round of checks issued under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Stability, or CARES Act.

In this Money Hacks episode, I go over a few ways you can wisely make this money work for you.
