FI Minded: Achieve Financial Independence & Have Fun Doing It

These 9 Employee Perks Are Basically Free Money | E115


Listen Later

So far in the Mastering Money at Work Series, we’ve discussed 4 steps to setting up your 401(k), which was episode 113, and last week, Jesse Cramer taught us how to ask for a raise.

These were two topics that I really wanted to cover because I believe they can be huge game changers for your career-earning power and lifetime take-home pay.


This week though, we are going to get a little more…creative and scrappy.


We are talking about employee perks and how these seemingly nonchalant offerings can add up to tens of thousands of dollars.


These fringe benefits that go beyond normal salaries could include awesome perks like snacks, yoga classes, summer Fridays, flexible hours, company time off for volunteering, and unlimited PTO. The list goes on and on.


But today, I’m going to throw at you 9 employee perks that I think you should be aware of they could significantly save or make you money which is of course, what this series is all about.


So if that sounds like something you want to learn about, let’s get into it.


Key Takeaways:

  • 9 money-making or saving employee perks
  • Finding win-win-win situations with employee referral bonuses
  • Cover your education with tuition reimbursement
  • Jumpstart your HSA funds with an employer match
  • Hard work and get recognized through employee achievement awards
  • Make some commission money by referring clients to your company
  • Get your gym membership paid for with a wellness stipend
  • Subsize your transportation costs with commuter benefits
  • Find a great deal through your employee discount catalog
  • Make a bigger impact with employer matching charitable donations
