☆ This is the No. 1 way to raise kids with a 'really healthy resilience,' pediatrician says
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-11 | by ( Aditi Shrikant | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

There is endless discussion among parents — and researchers — about which mix of empathy and structure kids need to grow into well-adjusted adults. Recently, experts have been praising a new approach that they say is the perfect equilibrium of freedom and rigidity: lighthouse parenting. This is an authoritative style of child-rearing that calls for both rules and warmth. "Lighthouse parenting balances protection but fosters a really healthy resilience and autonomy in kids," she says. Often called "helicopter parenting," this method can stunt growth.

Milwaukee-based entrepreneur Eric Jones describes the change in "energy" and voter enthusiasm since Vice President Kamala Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee.

☆ You'll miss out on years of 'free money' if you wait until this age to start saving for retirement
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-11 | by ( Cheyenne Devon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

If you don't start setting aside money for retirement by the time you turn 40, you may need to rethink your long-term plan. At 40, "you really have to start thinking about solving this challenge with more than just figuring out how to save more," she tells CNBC Make It. "You either have to keep earning money or you have to stop consuming or radically change what you consume during retirement." That may involve making bigger changes to your retirement lifestyle, such as downsizing your home, moving somewhere with a lower cost of living, not traveling as much or even working longer. "You're taking choices away from future you if you don't save when you're young," Lester says.

My husband and I were high school sweethearts but we married when we were 25. We took a $15,000 loan for our wedding that took us five years to pay. Finances have been a struggleDon't get me wrong — since we took that loan out, finances have been a struggle for us. But we paid off that wedding loan (yes, it took the whole five years), and we learned that no matter what kind of bind we get into, we will find our way out of it. Still, though, I wouldn't recommend taking out a loan for your wedding if you can avoid it.

It's harder to answer questions or solve problems when you're asked to choose between more than four solutions, research shows. Neuroscientist Paul Glimcher has a simple strategy to cut through the noise and consistently make smart decisions: Instead of trying to pick the best choice, start by picking the worst. Process of elimination isn't exactly a new concept — you might have learned about it in elementary school — but it can help you avoid mistakes and improve your accuracy making everyday decisions, Glimcher said. "We're just good at the binary choice task — pick your best and eliminate your worst," Glimcher added. That's because picking from fewer options can help us make more accurate decisions, said Glimcher.

The relationship between Trump and Putin has long been a source of controversy.

In a forthcoming book, journalist Bob Woodward says that the former president and Putin have a closer friendship than previously known. The Ukraine war has already roiled markets for food, oil, gas, and other products, and wider conflict could have an even more devastating impact. If Russian President Vladimir Putin is victorious in Ukraine, it may embolden Chinese leader Xi Jinping to invade Taiwan.

Pittsburgh CNN —In the years that Pennsylvania Senate candidate Dave McCormick led one of the world’s largest hedge funds, the firm bet millions of dollars against some of the state’s biggest and most iconic companies, financial filings show. For financial institutions, short positions can be lucrative. The fund shorted about four dozen companies from Pennsylvania during McCormick’s tenure, the records show. The fund did invest in stocks of some of the same Pennsylvania companies it shorted in other years, and overall, it reported spending more money buying stocks of Pennsylvania companies than shorting them in four of the five annual reports reviewed by CNN. She argued that the short positions Bridgewater took in Pennsylvania companies didn’t negatively impact employees because they represented a small fraction of each company’s overall value.

To lower costs, 1 in 3 homeowners are willing to hire a contractor with holes in their resume. About 33% of surveyed homeowners say they'd consider hiring a contractor with a questionable reputation to save money, according to a new report by Clever Real Estate, a housing data site. Generally, homeowners say reputation is the most important factor when hiring a contractor (25%), followed by experience (23%), cost (19%), personal recommendations (13%), availability (11%) and estimated project timeline (10%). As homeowners juggle insurance claims and recovery efforts from back-to-back storm aftermaths, one thing to keep in mind is who to hire as a contractor. Ask for reviews and references "The first thing you want to do is check [the contractor's] reputation," said Hicks.

"Instead of hoping that Russia's economic combat power will soon be exhausted, the West must focus on a long-term strategy that will further constrain Putin's war machine and boost Ukraine's own economic resilience." In boosting spending to such heights, Russian President Vladimir Putin is effectively dismissing brewing economic imbalances as other parts of the budget become squeezed. By pouring more money into defense, the Kremlin is exacerbating existing economic imbalances," Prokopenko wrote, adding: "Putin faces an unsolvable trilemma of simultaneously maintaining a balanced financial system, meeting social obligations and sustaining defense spending at current levels."

The Georgia Supreme Court on Monday reinstated the state’s six-week abortion ban while it reviews an appeal from the state of a lower court ruling that had struck down the law. The state Supreme Court's decision, however, left in place the lower court’s ruling blocking a separate provision of the law that had given state prosecutors broad access to the medical records of abortion patients without due process protections. The state's near-total abortion ban, known as the LIFE Act, was signed by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp in 2019 but didn’t take effect until July 2022, after it faced a legal challenge and the U.S. Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade. Last week, a judge in Fulton County, Georgia, struck down the state’s six-week abortion, allowing the procedure to resume and almost immediately making it legal up to 22 weeks of pregnancy.
