This story is part of CNBC Make It's Ditching the Degree series, where women who have built six-figure careers without a bachelor's degree reveal the secrets of their success. "At that point, I was like, 'Well, how far can I go without a bachelor's degree?'" Ansley says this proactive approach to her professional growth and networking helped her transition from marketing to product management. While some companies prefer product managers to have a bachelor's degree in business management, supply chain management or a related field, it isn't always required. Why product management is a 'great career' for someone without a degree

Citi is so bullish on one biotech firm that it has given its shares a target price that represents around 800% upside. In a Nov. 22 note, Citi gave the stock a buy rating and a price target of $90, representing potential upside of around 818% from Tuesday's price. However, the bank cautioned that the stock is high risk, given the "typical volatility" of biotech stocks and uncertainty associated with clinical trials. According to FactSet, analysts covering the stock give it average price target upside of 385% and a buy rating of 88%. On FactSet, the highest estimate came from Oppenheimer, which gives it potential upside of over 600%.

☆ Pride organizers describe timid sponsors and tighter security but no mass corporate retreat
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-20 | by ( Sara Ruberg | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +8 min

Many Pride organizers across the country say high-profile brand backlashes, restrictive legislation and heightened threats against LGBTQ people have fueled record crowd turnout this year. Most of the Pride organizers NBC News spoke with, including Snider, declined to identify corporate sponsors that shrunk their involvement or visibility, concerned about alienating important financial backers. Like Indy Pride, Pride organizations are typically nonprofit organizations that also offer year-round services to the LGBTQ community, such as grants, educational events and support for political activism. Josh Coleman, president of Central Alabama Pride in Birmingham, said some longtime corporate sponsors dropped out this year, including Wells Fargo. Kendra Johnson, executive director of Equality NC, said threats against the community and Pride events have risen dramatically throughout North Carolina.

He said he got paid $17,000 an episode to act, executive produce, and make music for the show. Jackson is also a producer on the Starz show "BMF" and previously had an overall deal with the network.

No judgment if Halloween is your thing, but I don’t like to be scared so I don’t indulge. Three things to watch‘The Surreal Life’The new cast of "The Surreal Life" sit down for dinner -- and some heated conversation -- in a scene from the VH1 show. From VH1/YouTubeI should probably start by mentioning that Dennis Rodman likes to walk around the house in which he filmed the new season of “The Surreal Life” naked. ‘The White Lotus’ Season 2(From left) Will Sharpe, Aubrey Plaza, Meghann Fahy and Theo James in a scene from season 2 of "The White Lotus" on HBO. And not to give too much away, but there’s a cool scene in season two which addresses binge-watch culture.
