How To Double Your Paycheck in Philadelphia

Costs are up, wages are not. Particularly in Philadelphia, where residents earning the local minimum wage of $7.25 an hour haven't seen an increase in more than 13 years.

It's tough for many Americans to make ends meet this summer, with inflation raising prices of everything from groceries to gas. This month, the inflation rate in the City of Brotherly Love is at 8.8%, the highest year over year increase in more than four decades.

Instawork offers Philly workers the ability to quickly increase their hourly wages and ease the pressures of inflation. Visit www.instawork.com or download the app to learn more.
