The Daily Money
 
Monday, February 8

Good morning, Daily Money subscribers, it's Nathan Bomey easing into the week.

You weren't dreaming: Tom Brady did it again (though the Buccaneers defense deserves some serious credit). And viewers loved those Rocket Mortgage commercials, according to the annual USA TODAY Ad Meter.

On to the Money & Tech headlines for today.

Bought any bitcoin yet? Might want to be careful about that. It's pretty volatile.

Apparently not too volatile for Tesla, though. Elon Musk's electric vehicle maker disclosed Monday that it has invested $1.5 billion in bitcoin.

Hey, did you make a ton of money on your GameStop investments? Nice work. Now it's time to pay Uncle Sam.

At least you can save some money on library late fines. They're going away at libraries throughout the country. After everything we've been through, we deserve a break, right?

More headlines below.
