Shanna Nasiri, 34, decided to leave her tech job when she no longer felt aligned with the work. Earlier this year, she opened a natural wine bar in Williamsburg called With Others. Nasiri said her prior tech work served her well as she became a bar owner. AdvertisementThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Shanna Nasiri, the 34-year-old owner of With Others, a natural wine bar in Brooklyn, New York. When I think about it now, it was pretty brazen to start a wine bar.

He had a $1.5 million life insurance policy, which my mom used as leverage to get a loan for his care. My mom's experience convinced me to buy a 20-year, $500,000 term life policy of my own, at $28 a month. That math looks grim, and it would look a whole lot worse if my stepfather didn't have a $1.5 million term life insurance policy. Life insurance was a financial lifeline for my motherThough the mortgage had slipped my stepfather's mind, the life insurance premiums were on autopay.

Mortgage rates are expected to drop, which means that it might be a good time to buy a second home. There's no perfect time to buy a home, so I'm more concerned with whether it feels like a good time. So, while mortgage rates are expected to go down this year for primary homes, mortgage rates for second homes might not fall as equally. Still, the Fed rate cut is already impacting mortgage rates, which could benefit second-home mortgages, as well. Barring a big windfall of cash allowing you to buy something outright, there may never be a "perfect" time to buy a home.

I grew up working class and learned good work ethic from my parents. The novelty of cap erasers and Airheads from the school store wore off fast, and money didn't have much luster. In our part of Wisconsin, with its German roots and farm families, work ethic is our moral code. What 'good work ethic' means for your financesBecause it's in my DNA, I can't help but see a strong work ethic as a virtue. What I wish I'd learned about money earlierI'll always be grateful for the work ethic I learned from my parents ... and I wish I'd gotten the nuances of money a bit earlier in life.

Without a doubt, my mom expected to be free of dependents decades ago. But here I am, 39, unable to save a cent, in need of her financial support. I was otherwise financially independent, worked three jobs, had a good chunk of money saved, and my life was planned out. Not only was I feeling the effects of financial strain from the cost of school, but physical, mental, and ethical exhaustion had taken hold. She loaned me money to pay off that debt and told me I could pay my rent when I received my next student loan payment.

I instantly regretted my decision because I knew my son needed me. The chances of my husband getting a job that would pay enough to cover the cost of childcare were very low. My children needed their mother, and I needed my children. When I was focused on work and they needed my attention, I would redirect them to ask their dad instead. I realize now that all those years, I was bringing my stress and fear from work into my family life.

Reggie Jackson played in Birmingham when he was in the minor leagues back in 1967. In his return to Rickwood Field, he shared his experience with racism and discrimination. Jackson played there just four years after four girls were killed in a bombing at the 16th Street Baptist Church. The Giants wore the uniform of the San Francisco Sea Lions, a Negro Leagues team that folded after its only season in 1946. Giants manager Bob Melvin played at Rickwood Field in parts of three seasons in the early 1980s as a minor-leaguer.

Watching my parents navigate their 80s made me think differently about long-term care insurance. My dad and stepmom bought long-term care insurance while they were in middle age and still without any medical problems. My stepdad was diagnosed with lymphoma and required 24-hour nursing care for several months after he first fell ill. Since they didn't have long-term care insurance, he and my mom had to pay out of pocket for home health care: approximately $10,000 per month. When my parents first needed care and support, I initially thought my husband and I were too old to qualify for long-term care insurance, but it turns out we aren't; many people seek out the insurance in their mid-50s to mid-60s.

So the 90 minutes or so I spent gathering all of my paperwork and answering tedious questions about my income and deductions felt like a net gain. I would be responsible for meticulously tracking my income and expenses, as well as for making estimated quarterly tax payments. The questions felt more nuanced and crunching the numbers for estimated tax payments was more complicated than I anticipated. I was able to write off over $14,000 worth of business expenses thanks to the deductions the CPA uncovered. Aside from sharing my 1099s and a list of business expenses, and meeting with my accountant virtually for an hour during tax season, I was hands-off.

Darryl George was suspended from his Texas high school over the length of his locs hairstyle.

"Daryl is sitting on a stool, a stool in a cubby," Darresha George told Insider. Bloom told Insider that the district's policy on hair length does not violate the Crown Act. His hair is a connection to God," Matthews said, adding that Darryl's dad's hair, stepdad's hair, and brother's hair is woven into his own.
