For influencers, receiving "gifted" items from brands can feel "excessive and gluttonous," one said. Many decline free products, or if they receive them, they don't always post about them.

When the TikTok influencer Victoria Paris became famous on social media, she began to get so many free products from brands that she felt overwhelmed. Creators and other industry insiders said gifted partnerships that involve furniture — as well as a few other types of luxury items — could be mutually beneficial.

Misclassification of workers as independent contractors — also known as freelancers or the self-employed — instead of employees is happening across many industries, like construction, health care, restaurants, retail and transportation, Labor Department officials said Tuesday. Employers may benefit financially by classifying their workforce as contractors instead of employees. These companies often classify gig workers as independent contractors. Federal action would especially be a boon to "low-wage, vulnerable workers," Labor Department officials said.

Foreign Ministry Of Uzbekistan | via ReutersUkraine's counteroffensive, which has seen vast swathes of Russian-occupied territory get recaptured, could be compounding Russia's economic troubles, as international sanctions continue to hammer its fortunes.

Statistics are scarce on the true state of the Russian economy, with the Kremlin keeping its cards relatively close to its chest. She added that the Kremlin had "put Russia's economy on that path to oblivion" and vowed that sanctions were "here to stay."
