What are some financial stressors out there?

What triggers your financial stress?

What is Surge Pricing? Dynamic Pricing?

In this week's episode, Shawn & George talk about the various things that can cause financial stress. Situations like: bankruptcy & foreclosure, job loss, reduced work hours or income, lack of savings, debt, health care costs, separation or divorce, the loss of a spouse, taxes, food and living expenses, and housing expenses among others.

Did we miss any? What are some of your financial stressors and how do you deal with them?

Then, we talk about surge pricing or dynamic pricing - something that theme parks, airlines and uber have been doing for years. When the price of something increases during peak usage time, and decreases during non-peak usage time, that's surge pricing. Blackout dates are another good example of surge pricing. Recently, Wendy's announced (and then recanted) that they were going to implement surge pricing. Imagine a cheeseburger being more expensive during lunch than at 3 in the afternoon. Or image junk food being more expensive late at night than early in the morning.

Wendy’s says ‘dynamic pricing’ is different from ‘surge pricing,’ but whatever it’s called may still alienate customers (yahoo.com)
