I go to a café every day instead of working from homeFor as long as I've worked from home, I've rarely worked from my actual house. That's where my writers group comes in. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe members of my writing group are like coworkers, only better because it's a chosen circle of professionals. I'm a part of a lot of virtual communitiesIn addition to my WhatsApp group, I'm active in a handful of other online groups. I've never met some of the people I've worked with — I haven't so much as heard some of their names spoken aloud — but I've watched their careers evolve, as I imagine they've witnessed mine.

I have a 401(k) from an old job, so I asked a financial planner what to do with the funds. Unsure of what to do with the money inside that old 401(k), I chatted with certified financial planner Faron Daugs for advice. Roll your old 401(k) into your current employer's planWhile this option doesn't apply to me because I'm self-employed, one route that Daugs suggested is rolling your old 401(k) plan into the 401(k) plan offered by your current employer. A Roth 401(k) is similar to a Roth IRA and a 401(k), where you make post-tax contributions and earnings inside the account grow tax-free. Daugs also said going this route means you won't get taxed on any distributions from your old 401(k) plan.

I asked money experts for tips on how to get the most out of selling stocks by the end of the year. I'm going to use tax-loss harvesting to maximize the benefit I get from selling stocks. One pain point I'm addressing is that I have lost so much money in the stock market this year, and I just want out. With his recommendation, I sat down and reviewed each individual stock, looked into the company's earning reports, and researched news about emerging trends in that industry. However, Han shared a caveat that's important to know if you're someone who plans to keep on buying and selling stocks.

Western Afghanistan has been struck by four major earthquakes in just over a week. About 1,300 people were killed by the initial 6.3 magnitude earthquake on October 7. A fourth major earthquake struck the region on October 11. Buildings and infrastructure tend to be vulnerable in regions that aren't prone to earthquakes, Barnhart said.

LONDON, Oct 12 (Reuters) - From Mickey Mouse sketches to Cinderella's glass slipper, a new exhibition opening in London on Friday celebrates 100 years of the magical world of Disney. More than 250 items are on display at "Disney 100: The Exhibition", which begins with an introduction to animator and producer Walt Disney and his character, Oswald The Lucky Rabbit, said to be a prototype for Mickey Mouse. Also featured are sketches and interactive stations, and items from Marvel, Pixar and the "Star Wars" films, now part of the Disney conglomerate. "These characters can remain true and universal for decades," said Goldberg, who has worked on various Disney characters starting with the Genie in the 1992 animated feature "Aladdin". The exhibition at London's ExCel, of which another version will open in Chicago next month, runs as The Walt Disney Company marks 100 years since its founding, considered to be when Walt and his brother Roy Disney signed a contract with New York cartoon distributor Margaret Winkler on Oct. 16, 1923.

Polina Ivanova, a co-founder of Abastan, said locals in the northern Armenian town of Tumanyan were at first bemused by the strangers in their midst. Arghavan Majd, a painter from Iran, said she found the atmosphere "more free" in Abastan and it was easier to make personal connections. Timofey Moskovkin, a Russian now working in a cafe funded by the charity, said local people in Tumanyan, a town of about 1,000 people, had treated him warmly.

Tesla's Cybertruck is closer than ever, so we asked three experts on car design what they think about it. AdvertisementAdvertisementTo some, the upcoming Tesla Cybertruck looks like a clumsily designed, doorstop-shaped monstrosity. Instead of mimicking the upright, boxy shape of conventional pickups, Tesla's truck looks more like a triangle. "In car design, you wouldn't believe how much of a difference some small changes make," Licata said. Simplicity and purity are hallmarks of timeless design, Snyder said, and Tesla's wacky truck could fit the bill.
