Is nickel the next target?

Date:

good morning! Today I’m Betty Lynn Fisher, filling in for Daniel de Visse at the Daily Money.

At first it was Penny. Will nickel be next?

Last year, the U.S. Mint spent its last penny. The government lost money every time it created something new. It’s the same story with nickel.

This should be on every Gen X to-do list.

The oldest members of Generation X are nearing retirement but aren’t properly planning for the future, according to a new report.

Three-fifths of Gen Xers don’t complete some important tasks.

We look forward to hearing from you.
