Kevin O'Leary changed how he spends money after learning about his mother's Chanel jackets. The "Shark Tank" star began treating purchases like investments, prizing quality and resale value. Go to newsletter preferences Thanks for signing up! AdvertisementLong before Kevin O'Leary struck his first "Shark Tank" deal, his mother, Georgette, taught him an important lesson that changed how he spends money. In his book, "Cold Hard Truth on Men, Women & Money," O'Leary recalls admiring a classic Chanel jacket she wore to one of their family's Christmas dinners in the 1980s.

China's consumers and its central bank are snapping up gold, even as a falling yuan makes the metal pricier. AdvertisementChina's central bank has also been buying up gold, in much larger quantities than Gen Z's few grams of beans. Related storiesIn 2023, China's central bank bought 225 tons of gold, per the World Gold Council. The two economies have been jostled in the top spots for years, but China's buying spree last year put India behind. Advertisement"The amount of central bank buying is not justifying gold prices at current levels," she wrote.

More Americans are moving to Tuscany, a part of Italy known for medieval walled cities and wine. Some locals say it's keeping their economy alive, but others are starting to grumble. The influx of Americans, locals said, can be at once a booster of fortunes and an irritating imposition. "A lot of locals say that a place like Montepulciano cannot handle all those tourists because it's a small city," said Tudor, the jeweler. Americans, Ercolani said, "spend money and they appreciate the quality of the food and the wine that we have."

Orkin released their 2023 list of rattiest cities in America. Each year the pest control company Orkin ranks America's rattiest cities based on the number of new rat treatments, including residential and public, it performed there over the year. Orkin was so excited by this back-to-back winner that they released limited edition T-shirts emblazoned with the title "Top Rattiest City Chicago 2023". "We may soon be moving farther down the 'rattiest' city list," Johnson said. We're way outnumbered," Janelle Iaccino, marketing director for Rose Pest Control in Chicago, told Block Club.

It’s dueling Alexandras on this week’s Book Review podcast. First, the reporter Alexandra Alter discusses two of her most recent pieces. One is about Georgette Heyer, the “queen of Regency romance,” and the recent attempts to posthumously revise her most famous works by removing offensive stereotypes. She also talks about her recent profile of Rebecca Yarros, author of one of this year’s biggest hits: the “romantasy” novel “Fourth Wing.” The sequel, “Iron Flame,” has just been released. Then, staff critic Alexandra Jacobs joins to discuss her review of Barbra Streisand’s long-awaited memoir, “My Name is Barbra.”We would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review’s podcast in general.

Georgette Heyer, one of the most popular and influential romance authors of all time, was not a romantic when it came to her work. “I ought to be shot for writing such nonsense,” she once declared in a letter to her publisher. Among her ardent fans, though, she remains revered as the Queen of Regency Romance, a subgenre she essentially created and popularized. Her intricately researched historical narratives are still widely read nearly 50 years after her death; Julia Quinn, whose Regency romance series “Bridgerton” spawned the hit Netflix series, called her “the original.”To date, Heyer’s books have sold around 20 million copies. But some readers have questioned her enduring popularity in light of offensive ethnic and antisemitic stereotypes that occasionally appeared in her work.

Meanwhile over at Miu Miu, it was a heartfelt adieu to Fabio Zambernardi after more than four decades with the Prada Group; as in Milan, Miuccia Prada came out and took a bow with him one last time. Pamela Anderson attended fashion week shows sans makeup, as shown here at Vivienne Westwood. At Miu Miu, Sydney Sweeney, Emma Chamberlain, Zaya Wade and Mia Goth made for an eclectic, très-trendy front row; Cate Blanchett appeared at Louis Vuitton alongside Zendaya, who wore a dramatic white double-zipper dress that has gone viral. Issey Miyake continues to explore movement in its runway shows, this season with musicians imitating chirping and other sounds found in nature. Peter White/Getty ImagesOne of the most joyful moments on the Miu Miu runway was the accessory styling.

Both hit their strides with highly well received collections, as did a number of other familiar faces to Italy’s fashion capital.

Cinematic sets and performative showsAlongside the clothes, many brands made their sets a main talking point at fashion week. Lodovico Colli di Felizzano/WWD/Getty ImagesRyan Gosling and Juila Roberts were among the star-studded crowd to pile into the Gucci show.

When F1 took over the city recently, Tata Communications hosted a community event with experts from the worlds of gender equality, technology, and sports. Men may have long dominated science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education and careers, but in Singapore women's employment in science-based fields is climbing fast.

Tan was speaking at Amp It Up, an event hosted by Tata Communications for STEM students during the Singapore Grand Prix in September. She added: "It's about companies working with these initiatives to make sure that young women are aware of the available opportunities."

Chastain continues to carve out an inordinately unique niche of standout performances playing women named Tammy, although “Tammy Faye” embodied a different realm of high-profile personalities. That is, of course, an oft-told tale, a la “Sid and Nancy” or Ike & Tina Turner in “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” among past dramatizations within different musical genres. Understandably, stars are invariably drawn to these kind of showy roles, with “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Rocketman” and “Elvis” among the recent examples. Thanks to Chastain and Shannon (who admirably pull off their own singing), “George & Tammy” provides a warts-and-all window into Wynette and Jones’ lives. “George & Tammy” premieres December 4 at 9 p.m.
