I'm so glad you've taken time out of your day to join us here on the Clark Howard show

where it's about your empowerment with knowledge so you can keep more of what you make and you

can follow me at facebook.com slash Clark Howard.

Coming up later I want to talk about money that's out there that you've forgotten about

or didn't know was yours.

I'm going to talk about strategies to reclaim money that has vanished into the thin air.

I'm going to talk about the way most people take a summer vacation which is by car which

I think accounts for roughly 80% of summer vacations is a car trip instead of flying

by air.

And I want to mention something to you that could save you over time a substantial amount

of money and that is instead of driving your own vehicle on your summer vacation rent

one.

Particularly if you're going in a seven day block, renting a vehicle could be a lot cheaper

than effectively putting all those additional miles on your own vehicle.

And let's say you need a larger or smaller vehicle or a different kind for your trip than

what you own.

Rending one can just work out so so well.

Car rental companies are feeling pressure from people not renting cars who used to they're

using Airbnb.

I'm sorry, Airbnb.

They're using Uber or Lyft instead of renting a car and that's softened up demand for

the car rental industry.
