President Donald Trump is calling for a temporary 10% cap on credit-card interest rates, arguing that Americans are being “ripped off” as borrowing costs remain stubbornly high. The proposal is the latest in a flurry of affordability-focused moves aimed squarely at voter frustration over everyday expenses, from housing to consumer debt.Trump Proposes One-Year Cap Starting Jan. 20Depositphotos Photo by thenews2.comIn a social-media post Friday, Trump said he wants credit-card interest rates capped at 10% for one year beginning Jan. 20.

Open for: Lunch and dinnerPrice range: $$$This ode to Italian grilling honors the simplicity and comfort of meals shared in the Tuscan and Abruzzese countryside, but lovingly transplants them into an annex of Saint-Henri’s historic RCA building. Run by the team behind ever-cool Elena and intimate and elegant Nora Gray, Gia’s exceptional Italian menu comes as no surprise — though it leans slightly more rustic and of-the-earth than its siblings. Expect dishes like arrosticini (grilled meat skewers), Florentine steak, rabbit with mushrooms and mustard sauce, and other smoky, charcoal-grilled proteins, alongside fluffy focaccia, rustic pastas (think pici in creamy white…

Looking to make your own homemade daily shower spray from natural ingredients? Try my non-toxic formula that can be made in seconds. Bathrooms can get grubby pretty quickly, thanks to soap scum and water deposits. And because of all that water and humidity, they can be breeding grounds for mould and mildew. We used to buy a daily shower spray, to help keep things fresher in between deep cleans, but then when I was pregnant with my first daughter, the smell of the eco brand we used to buy made me feel really nauseous. That’s when I started experimenting with…

Has anyone ever told you to just be yourself?  It’s the sort of advice we give each other just before all those first impression experiences — job interviews, first dates, going to a new school — that tend to stir up a storm of nerves. We want people to like us. We want to feel understood and find connection with one another. It’s normal to feel nervous about how others might perceive us for the first time. New people and new environments can feel scary! “Has anyone ever told you to just be yourself?” Which is how we might find ourselves engaging…

By many objective measures, 2025 was a good year. Investment returns were solid. I published another bestseller in Millionaire Milestones. My kids are healthy, happy, and continuing to grow in loving environments. On paper, I should feel satisfied. But the reality is different. The downside of writing consistently, responding to hundreds of questions, managing the family finances and rental properties, and spending an enormous amount of time with my kids is that there isn’t much time left over for me. Since 2009, I’ve been waking up at around 5 AM to write before work, and since 2017, to write before…

Like children, it’s impossible to pick a favorite bean. Chickpeas, however, certainly rank high on our list. They star in some of our favorite dishes: falafel, chana masala, pasta e ceci, and lest we forget, classic hummus (and ricotta-beet hummus and curried sweet potato hummus). You can even use aquafaba, the liquid in a can of chickpeas, as a vegan substitute for egg whites. Fun!Among the earliest crops cultivated worldwide, some evidence suggests chickpeas were first farmed in the Fertile Crescent thousands of years ago. Today, the versatile legume grows all over the world and goes by many names: garbanzo…

French artist Antonin Fourneau’s interactive exhibit known as Waterlight Graffiti recalls a combination of two classic childhood toys: the Etch A Sketch and Lite Brite. However, to draw on Fourneau’s installation, a wall made of thousands of LED lights, there are no dials to turn or bulbs to plug in — all you need is water. In 2011, Fourneau went to China where he discovered dishu, a form of Chinese street art that uses water to paint calligraphy. This, and the cities’ LED billboards that “burned into his…
