| Contentment with less could change everything for people with decent incomes. The FIRE movement – it stands for "financial independence and retiring early" – is a money management philosophy that pushes adherents to save 50 percent of their pay, eschew excessive consumption, evaluate purchases based on equivalent hours of "life energy," and invest as much as possible so they can quit working earlier and enjoy life while young. The unwitting hero of the movement is a 72-year-old author, participants are largely millennials, and FIRE-following camps and websites are cropping up all over, amassing a huge following on Reddit. If saving 50 percent of your income sounds impossible, keep reading: There are still tons of great tips and wisdom to take away from this system, even if you don't or can't go full FIRE.

Hamlin Penske noted that her 9-year-old daughter also makes use of the wipes as she loves to play around with makeup.Revlon ColorBurst Lipsticks Amanda Shackleton said she loves Revlon’s ColorBurst lip products ($6.69 at Target), as they come in plenty of colors that she feels are very modern.
“You can get them in stains, you can get them as really matte, long-wear ones, which are the ones I usually use, and they’re about maybe $9,” she said. “They really compare to some of the bigger counter brands. Those are mostly what I’m using right now for lips, because they last so long and the colors are so good, and they’re really easy to put on.” Cover letters aren’t dead, even as job application processes become more and more automated.
