Your data is fueling the big data and AI revolutions. Don't you think you should benefit from it? That's the gist of new movement that puts users in control of their data, as well as the ability to profit from it.
"Low-income communities, who already tend to be marginalised, exploited, and subjected to heightened levels of surveillance, are also the most likely to feel pressured to give up their privacy under the kind of system these apps put forward," Carolyn Tackett, the deputy director of digital rights group Access Now, told Reuters in May 2020 .
Family Matters of Money and Legacy Planning
In the coming years trillions of dollars will be passed from one generation to the next. Many families will potentially be divided because of issues revolving around money, such as choosing someone to care for financial or healthcare decisions, problems when physical and mental capacity declines and legal issues arising between family members.

With assistance from Bob’s attorney who joined the meeting by phone, Bob’s oldest daughter, Lynn, was made Co-Trustee and given power of attorney to help with financial decisions.
'Free money' comes at an unhealthy emotional, mental price | Clay Today
America is hiring, but it isn't back to work. There are 8.12 million open jobs nationwide, more than half a million more than before the pandemic started. The job openings rate—the number of open jobs as a centage of total jobs in the U.S.—increased to 5.3% in March, the highest on record.
Yet, workers are nowhere to be found. Jobs that used to get 100 applications are now getting only two or three. Interviews are plagued with no-shows, and hiring fairs are reporting zero attendees. A Tampa McDonald's is offering people $50 to show up for an interview.

Summer reading: Get better at work, money and retirement - MarketWatch
It was a cold and rainy Memorial Day weekend for me. But I was able to spend it looking ahead to summer, which will hopefully include a break to relax and catch up on reading.
With that as a backdrop, here are a handful of fine work and money books for your summer reading list consideration. I have read each of these in recent months.
In March, I wrote about how adult education is a transforming trend in education these days. Whether it's for Gen Xers and boomers tracking encore careers, crafting a business at midlife, or purely chasing the intellectual and spiritual engagement of learning, there are escalating opportunities.
Opinion: 7 simple way to strike the right money tone with your kids - MarketWatch
You picked up your own feelings about money from the adults around you when you were a kid. Now, your children are taking their financial cues from you: watching your body language as you pay the bills, gauging your reaction when they ask for that shiny new toy, soaking up the words you use to describe what and how you're earning and spending.
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, though, the daily work-and-money messages you would normally send the kids have likely gotten scrambled, or obscured. If you get groceries delivered to your front step, your 5-year old may not fully understand that you have to pay for them. If you changed roles or hours, your teenager may have picked up on the fluctuating-income stress floating around the house.

DeSantis signs $101 billion budget laden with federal COVID-19 money - Orlando Sentinel
TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a $101 billion budget Wednesday, the largest-ever state spending plan, boosted with $10.2 billion in federal COVID-19 relief money.
Lawmakers steered much of the federal funds to raises for teachers, police and other first responders at DeSantis' request. The governor also vetoed $1.5 billion in funding.
The federal money, along with rosier revenue forecasts from state economists, helped prevent cuts to education and health care programs, which Republican legislative leaders had initially proposed before Democrats in Congress passed the latest round of COVID-19 relief in March.
