It’s summer and it’s time to enjoy. Money is not everything, but it helps to live the season a little better. From worry-free vacation rentals to real estate returns, cash makes all the difference. Of course, there are outlets for the sun to shine for everyone.

Some smile, others don’t. Summer is for traveling and whims. That there is money or not will mark the plans. In that reality goes by neighborhoods, with disparate salaries that leave women as great disadvantaged. Some smile more: pensioners are going to receive up to 6,000 euros in the June benefit with the extra pay. Figures never seen that will finance more than one plan. Who collects those amounts?

Eager to travel People do not give up traveling even if inflation makes a hole at home. 70% of those mortgaged have had to take out the scissors due to the increase in the fee. Between cutting and cutting you get a mattress and if money is missing, there are ways out such as financing vacations. It is a risk, although it also has its advantages. The only clear thing is that the travel agencies feel like it and go from record to record.

Opportunities. Summer can also be an investment. Buying an apartment in a beach area and renting it offers returns of more than 5%. You have to know where it is done and what housing people are looking for, and find a good tenant. If you want to rent something, this is the profile of the ideal tenant. Your good income will allow you to pay what you want, unless the new price caps are applied…

Without news. For some, what their savings yield in the bank is the most they will get for their money. Cautious and allergic to risk, they see how the big banks continue without paying for term deposits. The forecast is that things remain the same. In the future and depending on how the market goes, they can consider it, say the entities.

The tragedy marked a few days ago a telemarketing company in Madrid. A colleague, Inma, died at her post and work continued with her corpse a few meters away. The case has generated a lot of commotion. The sector has 100,000 workers. Although conditions are getting better, stress is always present.

On another front, the last hours arrive to make the rent. Forgetting the paperwork can be very expensive, but hurry too. This is the great reason why you have to settle the statement now if you have not done so yet.
