Next on our list of great tricks to build wealth is joining AARP. You’re probably saying, “Wait, but AARP is for retired people.” Well, the nonprofit organization doesn’t have a minimum age to join.

While it’s known that AARP is available to those age 50 or older, anyone between 18 and 50 years old is eligible to get discounts on a bevy of things, like up to $200 off flights, up to 20% off hotels, up to 30% off rental cars, and up to 15% off restaurants.

You can also save on prescriptions, meal deliveries, eyeglasses, and lots more. Moreover, AARP offers retirement planning tools, job listings, a Fraud Watch Network, and tons of resources, information, and programs.

You should give it a try. The AARP membership is only $12 per year with auto-renewal, and you’ll definitely recoup the cost in the first week.
