☆ The biggest basic income pilot in the US found that it didn't stop participants from working and helped get their families into safer situations
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-30 | by ( Noah Sheidlower | Katie Balevic | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

The Basic Income Guaranteed: Los Angeles Economic Assistance Pilot, or BIG:LEAP, gave over 3,200 households $1,000 in monthly no-strings-attached cash payments for 12 months starting in January 2022. BIG:LEAP compared the outcomes of households receiving cash payments to nearly 5,000 households with similar incomes and family situations in the control group. In the last six months, participants were more likely to establish proximate safety and work toward protecting themselves in the future. Overall, it stands in contrast to what some critics of basic income argue, including that cash payments majorly reduce employment or don't prepare participants for the future. Housing cost burdens decreased among all study participants.

Harris For President Campaign | Via ReutersFinancial experts describe Vice President Kamala Harris' investment style in one word: Boring. In her role as vice president, Harris filed a public financial disclosure report for 2023, which was signed in May. Carolyn McClanahan, a certified financial planner and founder of Life Planning Partners in Jacksonville, Florida, who also reviewed Harris' financial disclosure, said it makes her "heart sing" to see Harris investing in low-cost passive investment strategies. Since 2020, mortgage rates have increased substantially, which means the couple missed their chance to lock in a low rate for a longer term. McClanahan said she urged everyone to lock in the record low mortgage rates that were available back then.

☆ I run a preschool and see how gentle parenting has made parents less engaged with their kids. It's time to ditch parenting scripts.
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-25 | by ( Christine Carrig | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

I now realize this mother was an early adopter of parenting scripts, something I had never heard of at the time, though they have now become ubiquitous. AdvertisementWords matter when talking to kidsThe spoken message behind parenting scripts is that parents can optimize how they speak to children, supporting their children's development and validating their feelings. The unspoken message behind parenting scripts is that much of parents' reflexive language toward their children is pernicious. Children need their parents to be congruent in their interactions, even if they might misspeak from time to time. Parents need to trust that, at the end of the day, their hearts are in the right place — so much so that they may even want to speak from it.

Lachlan, who is sometimes seen as a parallel to Roman Roy, as Business Insider's Madeline Berg reported, would likely preserve the political leanings of the media empire once he takes over. AdvertisementMurdoch's decision to give Lachlan control of his media empire has left the patriarch estranged from his three eldest children, according to the Times. None of the three children attended Murdoch's wedding to Elena Zhukova in June at his California vineyard, according to the Times report. Elisabeth left the media empire years ago in 2000, while Prudence is said to be the least involved in the business.
