☆ This woman made up to $110,000 a year as a nanny for the ultra-rich. Here's what she learned from the job

In Kiser's final year as a nanny during the pandemic, she estimates she took home about $110,000. CNBC spoke with Kiser about some of the financial lessons she learned during her time as a nanny, and why she ultimately left the role. Stephanie Kiser: I read "The Nanny Diaries" when I started my first job. SK: A contract as a nanny is important because there's no human resources; there's no laws protecting you. It seems like nannying work can have a low barrier to entry, with salary growth potential, but then there are all these other risks.

☆ Katy Perry's new song 'Woman's World' isn't as bad as we feared. It's worse.
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-12 | by ( Callie Ahlgrim | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +8 min

Listening to the album's lead single, "Woman's World," I have to assume it's a portal to the past. In the music video for "Woman's World," Perry's visuals are clearly meant to be tongue-in-cheek. Five people are credited as songwriters for "What Makes a Woman," but none overlap with the six writers credited for "Woman's World." She wanted Dr. Luke and all the baggage he brings; all four other songwriters on "Woman's World" are Dr. Luke collaborators or signees. Perry's 'Woman's World' proves she's stuck in a sound of the pastSurely Perry knew she'd face backlash — and for what?

Rachel Whitney, head of editorial for the Nashville team, said playlists outside of the country genre are playing Knowles' country tracks, broadening its reach. The Beyoncé draw is also boosting exposure for other artists on some lists, like Lainey Wilson and Cody Johnson, who have more "traditional" country songs, Whitney said.
