AdvertisementThe US's efforts to produce more semiconductor chips have encountered some challenges over the past few years, but the tide may be turning. In 2022, President Joe Biden signed the CHIPS Act into law, which included $39 billion in manufacturing incentives for chip production in the US. Last year, TSMC announced that the official opening of its first Arizona fab would be pushed back from 2024 to 2025. TSMC's production of Apple chips is good news for Americans hoping to land jobs in the industry, Patel said. He said he thinks TSMC's production of Apple chips would bode well for the future.

“It used to be that if you made the median income, you could afford the median-priced house,” said Domonic Purviance, a housing expert at the Atlanta Federal Reserve. Their mortgage rate was 8.125% — above the roughly 7% national average at the time, which was hovering near 20-year highs. While that ratio is less than the cost-burdened 30% threshold, it has doubled in the area in just the last three years. From 2013 to 2023, the median annual household income in the U.S. has risen 50%, to $80,610. For example, McCue said, cost-burdened homeowners may struggle to keep up with home maintenance, leading to unhealthy or unsafe living environments.

Apple stock jumped Monday after a Wall Street firm touted the iPhone maker ahead of its quarterly earnings report. Analysts said Apple's stock may be able to advance higher on a late October earnings report that merely matches Wall Street estimates, so investors should be positioned accordingly. However, we do agree with Evercore's optimism on AI iPhone integration, and its ability to usher in an upgrade cycle for Apple's flagship device. But with our "own it, don't trade it" view still intact on Apple stock, it's acceptable for the upgrade cycle to get off to a slower start. "I'm for the elongated [upgrade] cycle," Jim Cramer said on Monday.

In this 2004 photo, then-District Attorney Kamala Harris waits for a proceeding to convene in San Francisco. The long-standing problem of racial inequities in the criminal justice system is among the issues that prompted Harris to become a prosecutor in the first place. “I grew up knowing about the disparities, inequities, and unfairness in the criminal justice system,” Harris said during a 2019 town hall hosted by MSNBC. And I am proud of the work that I did.”As a prosecutor, Harris adopted what she called a “smart on crime” approach to law enforcement. Her cautious stance on the issue frustrated many advocates of criminal justice reform, including those who expressed support for Harris on other issues.

And they are long-shot races, especially during a presidential election, when ticket-splitting isn’t as common as it used to be.

The spending disparity is less stark in Florida, where in September Mucarsel-Powell’s campaign spent $8.6 million and Scott’s campaign spent $2.1 million.

She has been trying to find a babysitter to sit with her kids for a few hours after school. As a teenager in the 90s, I might have gotten paid $20 for babysitting kids for the whole day. When I look for a babysitter now, I can't find anyone who charges less than $20 an hour. Kayla Sweeney can't afford to pay $20 an hour for a babysitter while at work. AdvertisementIf someone could charge minimum wage or even up to $10 an hour, I'd give them work to watch my kids right away.

I was introduced to working as a private chef through someone I met at work. Related storiesIn 2003, I did a one-year unpaid internship with a seasoned private chef to advance my career. Being a private chef is different because there's no egoYou have to get curious about what your clients want and ask them how you can improve. There's so much on the horizon, I'm working on a cookbook and some docuseries — maybe even my own reality show.

☆ Being a stay-at-home mom was suffocating at times, so I sent my kids to day care

After five years as a stay-at-home mom, she has put her 5- and 3-year-old in day care full time. My plan was to put him in day care after I took maternity leave. AdvertisementFive years after the birth of my oldest, I have just sent my two kids to their first day of full-time day care. AdvertisementNow that they've been in day care for a few weeks, I feel human again. I would have been keener to continue working if it hadn't been so expensive to put my kids in day care.
