The middle class is more of a club than an income bracketThe ranks of middle-income earners have been shrinking, according to the Pew Research Center.

It's peak allergy season in several states on the East Coast, including New York, and you, or your loved ones, may be sneezing, coughing and feeling more miserable than usual this year. More severe symptoms of seasonal allergies this spring are likely due to a warmer winter and an earlier start of allergy season, says Dr. Purvi Parikh, an allergist and immunologist with the Allergy & Asthma Network. And the cause of this longer, more intense allergy season? "There's higher amounts of pollen due to rising greenhouse gasses and more CO2 in the air, which plants thrive off of," Parikh tells CNBC Make It. Here are some effective ways to alleviate your allergy symptoms and still enjoy the spring.

A video game system that gets kids movingI felt a little hypocritical for not allowing my son to play video games after my husband and I spent so much time doing so growing up.

Yet they're still getting through often enough that the Federal Trade Commission has recently warned the public about the prevalence of fake job scams. AdvertisementThe 'fake check' scamChris Conwell had initially applied to a job ad on LinkedIn in early March. Fake check scams generally involve a supposed employer mailing a fraudulent check to the would-be employee they're attempting to scam. But, Conwell told Business Insider, something felt wrong. A representative for the company also pointed to internal statistics that indicate LinkedIn intercepts the majority of detected fake accounts and scams before fake recruiters can post.

Last year, Pride products had already been on sale online for weeks by mid-May, and each of the retailer's nearly 2,000 US stores was busy setting up displays near their front entrances. But late last May, conservative protesters took aim at Target's Pride collection, falsely claiming the merchandise was "Satanic" and sexualized minors. However, the two Pride Council members and multiple LGBTQ+ vendors who worked on past Pride collections told BI they feel the company hasn't done enough to rebuild its relationship with its LGBTQ+ partners over the past year.

Taylor Swift performs onstage during "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour" at SoFi Stadium on August 09, 2023 in Inglewood, California. At the core of the increasingly common accusation of price gouging is the sense that the consumer is being exploited. Price gouging is in the eye of the bidderGavin Roberts, chair of Weber State University’s economics department and who studies the effect of anti-price gouging laws, said the laws themselves often don’t define what price gouging is. Corporations charging as much as they can, as painful as it may be for consumers, doesn’t mean they’re necessarily price gouging, said Roberts. Steven Suranovic, an economics professor at George Washington University who has also published research on price gouging, sees it differently.

As a former recruiter at Google and the ex-head of talent at DoorDash, I've seen my fair share of candidates get ghosted by jobs they've interviewed for, and I've definitely ghosted candidates, too, but never intentionally. Recruiters forgetWhen candidates interview for a role and think, "I really want this job, but I'm not hearing back," I advise them to email the recruiter. One way to follow up with a recruiter is to send them a thank-you email within 24 hours after the interview. Recruiters are talking to other candidatesIf a candidate gets ghosted early in the hiring process, the recruiter is most likely talking to other candidates.
