AdvertisementSome Uber and Lyft drivers are starting businesses driving people they meet through the apps. Uber and Lyft drivers can make as little as $3 per ride, pushing some to look for alternatives. Brian is one of four drivers who told BI about starting his own business offering rides outside Uber and Lyft. When BI asked whether drivers are allowed to pitch their own businesses while on a trip for Uber, an Uber spokesperson said the app's drivers are independent contractors. The spokesperson also referenced company statistics showing that Uber drivers make more than $30 per hour "while active on the app."

LinkedIn has seen a 29% increase this year in users who list their preferred pronouns. AdvertisementDetractors might consider it woke, but more professionals are including their preferred pronouns on their LinkedIn profiles. LinkedIn added space for users to include their preferred pronouns in their profiles in March 2021. Cooper, who said she doesn't indicate preferred pronouns, said that for some people sharing their pronouns can signal support for marginalized groups. She said that, ultimately, while some people find comfort in sharing their preferred pronouns, what that says about a person might be limited.

The connection between business credit cards and personal creditWhen you apply for a business credit card, the process largely looks the same as getting approved for a personal credit card. Failure to make payments, as well as other delinquent behavior on a business credit card, will impact your personal credit because of this personal guarantee clause. How business card usage affects personal creditBeyond the initial hard inquiry from an application, you may be curious to know whether using a business credit card will impacts your personal credit. The same rule applies to business credit cards — and the effects of business card defaults on personal credit scores can be detrimental. As with personal credit cards, applying for multiple business credit cards can impact your personal credit score.
