☆ The Unexpected Ways a Big Raise Affects Your Happiness
  + stars: | 2024-01-14 | by ( Joe Pinsker | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Up and down the income ladder, people say more money would make them happier. When they actually get it, that isn’t always the case. Some people who have gotten big raises recently say the money hasn’t changed their day-to-day life or hasn’t provided them as much joy as the things in their life that have nothing to do with money. Others were hoping for a bigger raise or felt conflicted about making more money.

As the cost of having fun goes up, so do the odds that you’ll feel let down. Isa Jones paid $375 for a ticket to a local music festival, more than twice what she remembers paying more than a decade ago. “It’s like my happy place,” she said, justifying the expense.

  + stars: | 2023-10-30 | by ( Joe Pinsker | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
The next time you’re googling how to correctly pronounce potable, cache, macabre or gnocchi, or gauging whether the U is silent in gauge, you can be assured of two things. You’re not the only one wary of butchering words. And waiting near the top of your search results will be Julien Miquel. Miquel, age 43, makes short YouTube videos that sound out English words, much like many other online instructors. But his work in the genre is distinguished by a curious feature: his conspicuously French accent.

☆ How to Use Investing Concepts to Improve Your Life
  + stars: | 2023-07-06 | by ( Julia Carpenter | Joe Pinsker | Veronica Dagher | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Don’t just spend your time. We are born rich in time and then spend down our fortunes over the years. It may not grow like money in a bank account, but there are ways to get the most out of it. Researchers suggest thinking of time as something we invest—rather than "spend"—using our precious hours now for fulfillment and meaning that our future selves can draw from. Fran Caballero

Last year, after buying a municipal bond issued by the city of Kankakee, Ill., Kevin Roczey found himself hooked on securities that the market had long overlooked. The renewed interest in bonds is widespread, but it has come with plenty of hiccups. Individual investors like Mr. Roczey are rusty—that is, if they knew anything about bonds to begin with.

☆ Gen Z's New Relationship Trend: Ditching Online Apps, Dating Friends
  + stars: | 2023-03-07 | by ( Daniel Cox | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
But that's changing: Today's young adults, especially young women, are increasingly finding romance in their friend groups. In interviews conducted for our survey, young people told us that they found online dating too transactional. Trust is at even more of a premium when it comes to dating online. In a Pew survey conducted last year, 52% of Americans reported encountering what they believed to be a scammer on an online dating platform. In dating, especially online dating, women are bombarded with negative attention, harassment, or worse.
☆ Half of Americans have less emergency savings than last year or no savings at all
  + stars: | 2023-02-24 | by ( Madison Hoff | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
A Bankrate survey that took place from January 20 to January 23 asked about how a respondent's emergency savings compared to these savings a year ago. About 4 in 10 US adults have fewer emergency savings than they did just a year prior, according to the survey conducted by SSRS. But not everyone has seen their emergency savings fall from where they stood a year ago. "Many have resorted to tapping their emergency savings if they have it, or have taken on credit card debt, or some combination. And emergency savings is money of course that should be highly liquid for when and if they need to tap that money supply."
