An Android update, wearable gadgets and smarthome devices are just some of the innovations Google is likely to show off at its two-day developer event. The Android operating system is expected to stretch - into cars, homes and smartwatches. Until now, Google has made most of its money from advertising. That might change in the future.

If you get married or earn a college degree, tell your insurance company about it. That's the advice from senior analyst Laura Adams at insurancequotes.com. Changes in lifestyle can alter how much you pay for coverage. "Being married is good: you actually get lower rates." It's all about the numbers for insurance companies. That's why young male drivers pay more than women. "As a group, if you're filing more claims they're going to hit that group with higher rates," Adams says. "You do have to speak up and kind of be savvy enough in the first place to ask for these discounts."
