    Smart Homes!

    In this episode of the Zing Podcast, we talked to Adam Justice, the vice president and general manager of ConnectSense about smart homes and home automation. For years, smart homes seemed like something from “The Jetsons”: a thing that would happen in the future – not today. But we’re seeing it here and now! Smart technology is changing the way we live and think about our homes. The idea of a home that works for you isn’t that far off. Justice gave us a great piece of advice for those just starting to dip their toes into the wide world of home automation. You don’t have to go all out at first; pick one area of your home you really want automated, and start there. Be sure to look for high-quality, secured smart home products, too. There are a lot of benefits to automating your home – less money on energy and convenience being two of them – but you want to be prudent about it. If you’re putting your home online, you want to make sure it’s secure. After you listen to the podcast, take a look at some of our other articles about smart home technology and see how you may want to incorporate smart technology in your home!

    Exciting Things Happening in Financial Technology

    We’ve been making purchases online for over a decade now, but within the last few years there’s been a transition happening. We’re not just making purchases online anymore, we’re budgeting, paying bills, doing our banking – even paying back our friends. When is the last time you went into a bank to deposit a check? Ordered checks? How about to the ATM to get cash to pay back your buddy? There are so many apps now that eliminate the need to actually go into your branch office or to the ATM. On this episode of the Zing podcast, we sat down with John Rampton, founder and CEO of Due.com, to discuss a few of the exciting things happening in the world of financial technology, or FinTech, as it’s more commonly known. We talked about everything from online budgeting tools like Mint, to the future of money transfers. DISCLAIMER: The information provided in this podcast is not financial advice.

    How to Lose Weight or Quit Smoking

    If you’re like many Americans, the start of a new year brings with it the excitement and promise of self-improvement. Around half of us commit to a New Year’s resolution every year, according to a University of Scranton study in the Journal of Clinical Psychology, but only around 8% of people are successful in achieving their resolution. But we’re not here to dampen your spirits – quite the opposite. On this episode of the podcast we take two of the most popular New Year’s resolutions – losing weight and quitting smoking, and talk to a couple of experts about how you can maximize your chances of seeing those commitments through. Psychotherapist Victoria Duda helps us understand the root causes of addictions and provides some helpful advice on how to rid yourself of an unwanted habit. We’re also joined by Tessa Ferrier, personal trainer, who provides helpful insight into how to approach weight loss from a diet and exercise standpoint. Tune in and let us help you see your New Year’s resolution through to completion! DISCLAIMER: The information provided in this podcast is not financial advice.
