☆ I spend over $1,600 a month to get help with my wardrobe, home, and kids. We should all treat ourselves to these types of breaks when possible.
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-22 | by ( Kiara Byrd | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

I spend about $1,600 on cleaning services and childcare monthly and around $1,000 each quarter on a stylist. Paying for things like a housekeeper, childcare, and a stylist allows me to put more time into making more money. Cleaning the house would take hours for me, and doing laundry for four people can easily take four to five hours a week. That's when we started getting a nanny a few hours a week, twice a week. I also love the fact that I can go to my son's karate class three times a week with the extra help.

She said her unit now aspires to train all of its workers in AI to get them ready "for the AI of the future," and she outlined some of the ways AI is helping bankers do their jobs. She said AI is reducing what she called "no joy" work. Some of the ways the bank thinks AI can come in handy are big and sweeping, while others are small by comparison. Broadly speaking, AI was a hot topic for other bank leaders at investor day, too. "You can't envision one app, one database, or one job where it's not going to help aid or abet."

In short, Trump’s New York congestion comment was classic dead cat. In the same Truth Social message, the former president mused about the impact of congestion pricing elsewhere in the world. After all, congestion pricing has been introduced in a number of cities, from Singapore to Stockholm, over the past 25-odd years. I live about four miles from the edge of the congestion zone, and it’s never once been a problem to circumvent. By most metrics, London’s congestion pricing experiment has been a resounding success.

☆ Vladimir Putin once made Italy's prime minister throw up by shooting a deer, carving out its heart, and offering it to the man raw: report

Berlusconi, Cicchitto said, was accompanying Putin on a hunting trip in the Russian countryside when Putin spotted a pair of deer. After shooting the deers, Putin told Berlusconi he would prepare an extraordinary meal with it, per Cicchitto's recount. According to Cicchitto, Putin proceeded to cut open one of the deer's body with a hunting knife. Berlusconi might have balked at Putin's culinary offering, but the former Italian prime minister shared a close relationship with Putin. In fact, eating a deer's heart is probably not that strange once you consider what else Putin has done with animals, per prior accounts.
