The concept of Vision Tree's "Open Source Money" series was always an intriguing one . A documentary-cum-reality TV show following the trials and tribulations of Disney-incubated Dragonchain ( DRGN ) as it attempts to negotiate a path through the perilous waters of United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) scrutiny.
With the premiere now upon us, 10 a.m. Eastern time July 4 on Discovery Science, Cointelegraph has managed to get a sneak preview of the first two episodes. So… is it any good?

Why Your Money-Market Fund Isn't As Safe As You Think - Barron's
No one wants their money-market funds to be interesting. They are the cash-like income funds you buy when you're waiting to buy something else, with a $1 share price that you always want to stay $1.
Given the crisis, it's time people stop thinking of money funds as risk-free. Professional investors don't. "As a prudent financial advisor, in March, we were part of that selling pressure because we looked at corporate money markets, and we said, while the risk is lower than it used to be in 2008, there's still a risk and the yield is just not that much higher [than Treasury bills]," says Andy Kapyrin, co-head of investments at RegentAtlantic, a financial advisor managing more than $4
Stimulus money could pose dilemmas in nursing homes | WKBN.com
NEW YORK (AP) — Nursing home residents are among the Americans getting $1,200 checks as part of the U.S. government's plan to revive the economy. But with many long-term care facilities under lockdown to prevent COVID-19 outbreaks, what are the rules around how the money is handled?
The situation underscores the vulnerability of many elderly residents and potential confusion about what homes can and can't do with residents' money.
One worry is that nursing homes could pressure residents to use the checks to pay outstanding balances. Another is that relatives who aren't legal representatives could demand to be in charge of the money, putting staff in difficult situations.
Bangor's face-covering campaign gains statewide attention and money - Bangor Daily News
A public health campaign that Bangor launched a month ago to encourage people to wear face coverings in public has gained statewide attention and funding after a month of being primarily online.
And the campaign will take on additional importance as Gov. Janet Mills steps up enforcement of the state's face covering requirement in a handful of cities including Bangor and coastal counties popular with tourists .
In early June, Bangor started the "Mask Up for ME" public awareness campaign through a city partnership with local health care organizations called the Community Health Leadership Board. The campaign aimed to encourage people to wear face coverings when in public to limit the spread of COVID-19, but it was limited to social media posts because the city did not have the resources to promote it in any other way, according to Patty Hamilton, Bangor's director of public health.

Money can actually buy happiness, study suggests | Fox Business
Expanding Class Divide in Happiness in the United States found the correlation between socioeconomic status, which includes income, education and occupational prestige, and happiness steadily increased between the 1970s and 2010s among adults who were at least 30 years old.
The study, published last week in the journal Emotion, based its findings on data gathered from the General Social Survey, which is one of the longest-running nationally representative surveys of U.S. adults. The survey covered 44,198 U.S. adult participants between 1972 and 2016.
Dizzying Amounts of Money Pour Into the Biden and Trump Campaigns - The New York Times
Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and President Trump combined with the Democratic and Republican Parties to raise well over a quarter-billion dollars in June, setting new high-water marks for both men in 2020 and obliterating June fund-raising records from previous presidential cycles.
Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump each raised more last month than what Mr. Trump and Hillary Clinton combined to collect in June 2016 — a sign of the dizzying costs of a 2020 campaign that is already saturating the airwaves and screens in the most crucial battleground states.
