It's incredible how swiftly the year is moving, and here we are already in May - I am thankful for life and for another opportunity to reset and refresh our financial strategies. This is a pivotal month to elevate our understanding of financial literacy and the crucial role of consumer protection. I am encouraging you all to deepen your knowledge and ensure you’re not only managing your finances well but also safeguarding your rights in the financial marketplace. But maybe your saying “Eman why is this important?” And put simply consumer protection is all about the laws and safeguards that ensure you, as a consumer, are treated fairly by businesses and not misled by advertisements, contracts, or sales tactics. It's about making the marketplace fair and safe for everyone. Let me give you a hypothetical example, suppose you are buying a new smartphone and the advertisement promises a significant discount on your next bill if you switch to a certain network. However, after switching, you find out the discount only applies under specific conditions that weren't clearly stated in the ad. Consumer protection laws help ensure that all promotional terms are clearly disclosed, protecting you from such misleading claims. Knowing your rights as a consumer is crucial. It enables you to navigate the market more effectively, understand the fine print of agreements, and avoid falling prey to deceptive practices. The start of May is a good time for us to reassess and reinforce our financial practices, ensuring that our engagements are secure and our decisions well-informed. What steps are you going to be taking this month to ensure your financial strategies align with your rights as a consumer? 🙏🏾❤️ P.S. If you want me to give you a practical suggestions of things you could do this month let me know and I’ll share in the comments #FinancialLiteracy #ConsumerProtection #EmpoweredConsumer #MayFinancialGoals

Third-party settlement services are popular because of how convenient they are to use. These services include payment apps, such as Venmo, and online marketplaces, such as eBay. However, if you cross certain transaction thresholds, you may receive Form 1099-K, Payment Card, and Third Party Network Transactions. Late last year, the IRS delayed enforcing a $600 reporting threshold. As a result, for the 2023 tax year, Form 1099-K generally isn’t required unless a taxpayer receives more than $20,000 and has more than 200 transactions. To alleviate confusion surrounding taxpayers receiving and filing Form 1099-K, the IRS has issued a myths vs. facts list.

[FSD GEN4]#4 Social Media Is Changing the Online Shopping Experience Many interesting things about Social Commerce~ During this session, I gained insights into the primary stages that require focused attention, namely order processing and delivery. To summarize, there exist three key challenges that contribute to inefficiencies in the operational stage. These challenges include the identification of customer files, cost-related issues, and operational problems. If sales shops directly disclose prices to buyers, it becomes easier for their competitors to obtain knowledge about the selling price, the customer source, and subsequently estimate the company's financial standing. #FSD #FSDGEN4 #SALES #DigitalMarketing
