☆ Skip Paris and visit this pretty city 2 hours away. It feels less crowded but still has lots of holiday magic.

The city is two hours south of Paris and has incredible holiday markets, shops, and food. Bordeaux has great wine and is a day trip away from famous spots like Saint-Émilion or Margaux. That's why I now prefer to go to Bordeaux, the wine capital of the world, during the busy winter season. At less than half the size of Paris, Bordeaux gets a fraction of its millions of tourists a year, which makes it the perfect place to enjoy French esprit de Noël without feeling overwhelmed. AdvertisementI look forward to returning to Bordeaux this year to experience even more holiday joy and the city's many charms.

A kids' bank account is a type of joint bank account where an adult and a minor both have access. Types of bank accounts for minorsThere are two primary joint bank account options: kids' savings accounts and teens' checking accounts. Depending on where you bank, you may need to open a traditional savings account or a specialized bank account tailored to children. A custodial bank account is not the same as a traditional kids' bank account. Some national banks permit online applications when opening a bank account on behalf of a minor, but many require opening a minor's first bank account at a physical branch.

It sounds simple enough — rent comes in and, ideally, it's greater than the rental expenses, resulting in positive cash flow — but real estate investors agree that rental income shouldn't be categorized as passive. "You hear that real estate investing is passive, and that's certainly not been my experience," New England-based investor Tess Waresmith, who owns five units, told Business Insider. But when I'm not actively buying, I don't spend much time on real estate." Real estate syndicationWith real estate syndication deals, a group of investors pool together their capital to purchase a single property managed by the syndicator.

☆ China's March factory activity expands for first time in six months

China's manufacturing activity expanded for the first time in six months in March, an official factory survey showed on Sunday, offering relief to policymakers even as a crisis in the property sector remains a drag on the economy and confidence. New export orders rose into positive territory, breaking a 11-month slump, but employment continued to shrink, albeit at a slower rate, the PMI data showed. Premier Li Qiang announced an ambitious 2024 economic growth target of around 5% earlier this month at the annual meeting of the National People's Congress, China's rubber-stamp parliament. Citi on Thursday raised its economic growth forecast for China for this year to 5.0% from 4.6%, citing "recent positive data and policy delivery". China's cabinet on March 1 approved a plan aimed at promoting large-scale equipment upgrades and sales of consumer goods.

A man wearing a mask walks past the headquarters of the People's Bank of China, the central bank, in Beijing, China, February 3, 2020. In a poll of 26 market watchers, all participants predicted both the one-year LPR and the five-year tenor would stay unchanged. "The changes in LPR are more affected by the MLF rate," Zhou said, expecting the LPR to stay unchanged this month. The PBOC on Wednesday injected 1.45 trillion yuan ($200.12 billion) worth of one-year MLF loans into the banking system but kept the rates on those loans unchanged. Expectations of steady LPR fixings also come as new bank lending in China fell less than expected in October from the previous month.

REUTERS/Gabriel Crossley/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsBEIJING, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Profits at China's industrial firms extended gains for a second month in September, adding to signs of a stabilising economy as the authorities launched a burst of supportive policy measures. For the first nine months, profits slid 9% from a year earlier, narrowing from a 11.7% decline in the first eight months, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed on Friday. A fall in producer prices last month indicated that some industrial firms were still cutting prices to promote sales, putting a drag on overall industrial revenues and profits, Zhou said. The improvement in industrial profits is expected to sustain in the coming months, partly due to the lag effect in domestic macro pump-priming, he added. Industrial profit numbers cover firms with annual revenues of at least 20 million yuan ($2.73 million) from their main operations.

BEIJING, Oct 9 (Reuters) - Former party chief and chairman of China Everbright Group Li Xiaopeng was expelled from the Communist Party and his post for severe violations of discipline and law including bribery, Chinese state broadcaster CCTV reported on Monday. Li is the latest Chinese financial executive found guilty under President Xi Jinping's anti-corruption campaign that has in recent years targeted the country's financial institutions. China's anti-graft body said in April that Li was under investigation for possible law violations. Li's punishment came days after China's ruling Communist Party expelled the former chairman of Bank of China from the party, accusing him of illegal activities and taking bribes.

Russian forces wound up bombing their own occupied territory in Ukraine in a botched attack Friday, Ukrainian officials alleged. The Russians reportedly meant to drop the explosives at the Ukrainian-held right bank of the Dnipro River, a military spokesperson said. Russian state media said 15 people were hurt — and blamed the strike on Ukrainian forces. But Russian state-run news outlet RIA Novosti blamed Ukraine military for the explosion, saying it was Kyiv's forces that struck the residential area in Nova Kakhovka, leaving 15 people injured. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy recently admitted Kyiv started the counteroffensive too late, giving Moscow ample time to plant countless land mines on Ukrainian soil.

The central bank "will create an appropriate monetary and financial environment to promote effective demand in the real economy, support a moderate recovery in prices and enhance economic vitality," the official said. New bank loans beat expectations by nearly quadrupling in August from July, as the central bank sought to shore up economic growth amid soft demand at home and abroad. The central bank last cut the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) - the amount of cash that banks must hold as reserves - in March.

Automating your savings helps you grow and increase your money over time. Typically, a good plan is to set up an individual savings account for each savings goal (like an account for travel, emergency fund, or down payment) and then automate deposits to each account on payday. Avoiding the temptation to spendThe hardest part about saving money is overcoming the temptation to dip into savings for non-essential purchases. By setting up automated transfers to your savings account, you create a barrier between your discretionary income and the money you have saved. But building the habit of saving can be the best thing that you can do for your financial journey, and automating it makes the habit much easier.
