Irene was over 50 but couldn't come to terms with the label "Grandma," and I was confused. She was "Grandma Irene," so Irene was begrudgingly stuck. Now that I'm hitting some senior milestones, I'm beginning to understand my mother-in-law a bit better. I'm sure my choices are foreign to my children and son-in-law, but give them a few years, and I'm sure they'll catch on. I'm sure I'll also struggle with the label "Grandma" when the time comes, too.

You don't need a lawyer to create a will if you have a straightforward financial situation. You don't need to say who will receive proceeds from life insurance or retirement accounts in your will, as those require a named beneficiary within the account. For example, instead of writing "my home goes to my son," write down the full address and his full, legal name. You can name a guardian of sorts for your pet and leave money to that person to cover future costs. Make sure a beneficiary or the executor knows the location of the will and how to access it.

Some of the companies reporting quarterly results next week are more likely to see their stocks get a post-earnings bump. Quarterly earnings so far have been positive. FactSet data showed that as of Thursday, 80% of the 61 companies in the S & P 500 that had already reported topped analyst earnings estimates. Analysts have revised their earnings estimates upwards by 25% and 64%, respectively, in the past three and six months. Analyst Jay Sole said he expects the Hoka brand has maintained "robust revenue momentum," which should give Deckers a good chance of beating earnings estimates and raising its forecast.

☆ A major shift at Starbucks has changed its personality

Employees who brewed and served Starbucks coffee, whom Starbucks called baristas, handwrote customers’ names on their drink orders. But Starbucks’ business has transformed, and it has struggled to maintain its identity as that third place along the way. In some stores, customers complained online that Starbucks pulled out comfortable chairs and replaced them with hard wooden stools. Mobile ordering was another major step in Starbucks’ road to becoming primarily a take-away business. Starbucks also is opening 2,000 new stores, including traditional Starbucks locations, pick-up stores, delivery-only stores and drive thru-only locations.

☆ Netflix reports earnings after the bell. Here's what Wall Street is watching

Netflix reports after the bell Thursday, ushering in the start of earnings season for Wall Street's biggest media and technology giants. Analysts expect the streaming behemoth to post earnings of $4.74 per share on about $9.53 billion in revenue, according to analysts polled by LSEG. The analyst regards upside to subscriber additions, commentary surrounding margin expansion and a reacceleration in revenue as key for investors. Jefferies analyst James Heaney expects these programs and a strong content slate position Netflix well for a second-quarter subscriber beat. Netflix has made strides within advertising, disclosing in May that there were 40 million active monthly users in the tier.
