House Hacking for Extra Income? Here's How You Can Make Money and Preserve Your Sanity
Non-traditional approaches to house hacking can involve making livable space in basements, garages and even within the same unit, effectively creating something of a college dorm experience (without the college). House hacking isn’t just for new or established real estate entrepreneurs. In fact, regular tenants frequently house hack their way into rent money through a process known as subletting.
Whether you are the property owner or the tenant, inviting someone to share your space to cut costs may be an effective financial strategy in the long run, but it can come with short-term negative impacts to your mental health. Here are five things you can do to house hack effectively and preserve your sanity.
Not just pocket change: Money left behind by airline passengers adds up, TSA says
How much money would you guess the nation's airline passengers walked away from after going through airport screening last year? It's money they took out of their pockets and left in a bin but forgot to pick up.
Here's a hint. At New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport alone, they left behind $98,110 in coins and even paper money, the Transportation Security Administration says.
Nationwide, the total was $926,030, which includes about $19,000 in foreign currency, according to the agency.
City of Kuna to consider using CARES Act money to fund a private teacher for children of city
KUNA, Idaho — A proposal by the Kuna City Council isn't sitting well with some working parents in the Kuna School District.
During Tuesday night's regularly scheduled board meeting, council members reviewed the proposed "Employee Cooperative Tutoring Plan."

Congressional Leaders Are Raising More Dark Money Than Ever Through Their Super PACs –
Ahead of the 2018 midterm elections, former House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) made a pilgrimage to the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas to meet with mega-donor Sheldon Adelson about the need for Republicans to preserve their congressional majority.
After presenting the GOP's plans alongside officials from the Congressional Leadership Fund (CLF), the House Republican-aligned super PAC, Ryan simply stepped out of the room .
PACs that don't donate to or coordinate with campaigns are legally allowed to solicit donations of any amount—with their congressional leadership members just on the other side of a door—because the Supreme Court's 2010 Citizens United ruling set the table for the invention of a new type of political committee that can raise and spend unlimited sums.

Feeling out of control? These money moves could help
Behavioral economist Dan Ariely and his colleagues at Duke University's Center for Advanced Hindsight have a pact. Every week, the group of 50 people picks one small business in Durham, N.C., and each person spends $100 there.
A one-time $5,000 infusion wouldn't make a difference to Amazon, Costco or any other large retailer, but it could be enough to keep a local business afloat, Ariely says. Taking this action helps the group feel that they're making a difference when so much of the world seems out of control.

Only one day after he was indicted on conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering charges, a video has surfaced showing former Trump campaign manager Steve Bannon joking with one of his alleged co-conspirators about stealing “all that money from ‘We Build The Wall,’” a crowdfunding campaign that raised more than $25 million with the promise to erect a barrier on the southern border.
“Welcome back and this is Stephen K. Bannon. We’re off the coast of Saint-Tropez in southern France, in the Mediterranean. We’re on the million-dollar yacht of Brian Kolfage . Brian Kolfage—who took all that money from ‘We Build The Wall,” Bannon joked in the video, adding, “No, we’re actually in Sunland Park, New Mexico.”
