If you travel and you haven't looked at your credit card's transfer partners, you might be missing out. There is no right or wrong way to use points and miles you've earned when you use a credit card, and the options are plentiful. Rewards credit cards allow you to earn points or miles on every purchase rather than giving you cash back immediately. Strategically using credit cards this way is a great way to capitalize on your spending, especially if you love to travel like our family does. My favorite credit cards are the most flexible onesWhile debating what type of credit card to open and use to earn points can be daunting, our family loves using credit cards that give you the most flexibility in redeeming those points.

☆ I'm an interior designer. I love HomeGoods, but there are 7 things I never buy there.

HomeGoods has a ton of variety, but it's hard to find consistent candle quality. Paynter RhedThe candle aisle at HomeGoods is my favorite in the whole store. But as fun as the section is to peruse, the wide variety of brands, shapes, and scents can be a mixed bag. I've found that many candles I've bought at the chain either don't burn very well or lose their scent pretty quickly despite seeming amazing in the store. These candles are good in a pinch — and you might get lucky with a great one — but I'd rather spend more money and buy something high quality from an actual candle store.

☆ Joan of Arc: Why does her image still resonate?
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-15 | by ( Tacita Quinn | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +8 min

CNN —More than 800 years after her birth, Joan of Arc — a patron saint of France — remains an object of not just historical, but cultural fascination. Humble beginningsOne of five children in a peasant family in Domrémy, in north-eastern France, Joan was born in the year 1412. The Amazonian image of Joan of Arc in armor is perhaps the most recurrent one in popular culture, inspiring thousands, if not hundreds and thousands, of similar depictions. It also provided the inspiration for Carl Theodore Dreyer’s silent film The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) starring Renée Jeanne Falconetti. She is also a cautionary tale for young women, a brutal warning of the fickle nature of celebrity and a symbol of morality and strength.

ChatGPT users are asking the AI to reveal any personal traits it's gleaned from their past conversations. The ChatGPT responses posted by people online revealed long, detailed analyses that pointed out traits from users' "thoughtful approach to conversations" or ability to "blend curiosity with analysis." AdvertisementSome ChatGPT users suggested follow-up questions for the AI that might result in a less complimentary response. One person on X suggested asking ChatGPT to give them "the real talk," and another on Reddit, for a similar prompt, suggested telling the bot to "play devil's advocate." The viral prompt suggests that many people are getting comfortable talking to AI and asking it personal questions.

Alongside her partner Philippe, she now has six short-term rental properties.

Some people consider getting into real estate as a source of passive income, but I wouldn't say it's passive at all. We funded the downpayment through an equity release in the form of a mortgage on our personal home turned short-term rental. Real estate has historically been thought of as passive income, running short-term rentals is not passive.

☆ Deepfake romance scam raked in $46 million from men across Asia, police say

Hong Kong CNN —She appeared to be a beautiful woman and in the minds of men across Asia, the video calls they spoke on confirmed their newfound love was real. But Hong Kong police say the men had fallen prey to a romance scam that used deepfake artificial intelligence to lure its victims into parting with more than $46 million. In a news conference Monday, police in the Asian financial hub announced the arrests of more than two dozen members of the alleged scam ring, which they say targeted men from Taiwan to Singapore and as far away as India. But increasingly realistic deepfake technology has raised the stakes and put authorities on high alert. According to Hong Kong police, the romance gang’s deepfake scam typically began with a text message, in which the sender – posing as an attractive woman – said they had mistakenly added the wrong number.

New York CNN —Wall Street traders are popping champagne and toasting the two-year anniversary of a period of outsized gains known as a bull market. What makes this bull market unusual is how much uncertainty and economic worry investors have had to contend with during its run. Historically, bull markets recover around 194% of the previous downturn, according to Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA. While the first two years of a bull market often see significant gains, history shows that the third year can bring challenges, said Stovall. On average, bull markets entering their third year post a modest return of just 2%.
