I'm still a big fan of taking out life insurance, so I suggested a cheap life insurance plan I found from Corebridge Direct. To help settle our argument, I asked certified financial planner Ryan Nelson if buying cheap life insurance is worthwhile or if it's better to invest that money elsewhere. Those who achieved financial independence might not need a cheap life insurance planI asked Nelson if there was anyone who would be better off skipping out on paying for a cheap life insurance plan. In these circumstances, I'd strongly recommend they connect with an advisor that does not sell life insurance," Nelson said. That means that a cheap life insurance plan is better than not having one at all.

More than 90% of travelers from Southeast Asia say that gun prevalence in the United States influences whether they will visit, according to a new survey. However, nearly 80% said the likelihood that they would attend a mass gathering — such as a concert or music festival — would be greatly or moderately affected by the number of guns in the United States. Half of those surveyed said they have been to the United States. But a prior visit didn't calm Singaporeans' worries about gun violence to the same extent as other nationalities. Another 5% said they will out-and-out refuse to visit if Trump wins, with 2% saying the same about a Harris win.

For all the Democratic Party energy behind Kamala Harris, she is in a dead heat in all seven swing states against Donald Trump, despite his low favorability ratings and divisive policies like tax cuts for the wealthy and opposition to abortion rights. The participants felt torn about whether America’s best days were ahead or in the past and had seen some modest improvements in the economy — especially the job and housing markets — but felt worried personally about inflation and the future. The participants reviled Mr. Trump; this group wasn’t undecided in the sense that most would swing to him. The participants didn’t know a lot about her policies on the economy, Israel and Gaza, climate change, transgender kids, housing and immigration. The tight polls in the swing states make more sense after listening to these 15 voters.
