The past few years have seen “Abbott Elementary” star and creator Quinta Brunton take home multiple Emmys, a Golden Globe and even a Peabody award.But the 35-year-old comedy star isn’t surprised by her success. On a recent appearance on “Good Hang with Amy Poehler,” Brunson said that if you asked her 10 years ago what she would say if she knew how many accomplishments she had ahead of her, she would probably think everything was going exactly according to plan.”I think 2014 me would be like, ‘Exactly. Period,'” she said with a laugh.”I was a very determined, knew-where-I-was-going girl,” she…

Back in 2003, I spent a semester in L’Aquila, Italy and fell in love with the country. That study abroad experience changed the trajectory of my life. Two years later, I returned to pursue my master’s degree in marketing management and communications at Bocconi University in Milan. Fashionable, fast-paced Milan was miles away from the sleepy, neighborly L’Aquila, and the city’s nightlife actually reminded me of my hometown of Miami. After I finished school, I knew I wanted to stay. It was the beginning of a two-decade-long, and counting, love affair with Italy. I moved here permanently in 2012 after I married…

UnitedHealth was noticeably absent from the major averages’ surge this past week – and shares of the beleaguered insurer have become historically oversold. The health insurance giant was one of a small handful of names to sit out this week’s rally, in which stocks rebounded after U.S. and Chinese officials agreed to slash tariffs for 90 days. The S & P 500 posted a weekly gain of 5.3%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average became positive for 2025. In what was an ugly week for UnitedHealth, the insurer’s shares touched a fresh 5-year low on Thursday after The Wall Street…
President Donald Trump wants to revive the struggling coal industry in the U.S. by deploying plants to power the data centers that the Big Tech companies are building to train artificial intelligence.Trump issued an executive order in April that directed his Cabinet to find areas of the U.S. where coal-powered infrastructure is available to support AI data centers and determine whether the infrastructure can be expanded to meet the growing electricity demand from the nation’s tech sector.Trump has repeatedly promoted coal as power source for data centers. The president told the World Economic Forum in January that he would approve…
I can’t be the only parent of college-age kids who routinely texts them, “Have fun. Not too much.” This roughly captures the recent market moment. Investors have loosened up and are deservedly enjoying the resounding six-week market comeback — which takes them ever closer to the hard-to-discern line between harmless fun and reckless indulgence. Bursting from a position of extreme fear and torrid liquidation culminating on April 7, at the point of maximum tariff aggression, the indexes have responded as if the waterfall near-20% sell-off from February’s peak severely overshot fundamental reality. From technical conditions that were “so bad they’re…
If Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang were a student again, he’d take advantage of generative AI to have a successful career.”The first thing I would do is to learn AI,” Huang said in a January episode of the “Huge Conversations” show with Cleo Abram, mentioning tools like ChatGPT, Gemini Pro and Grok. “Learning how to interact with AI is not unlike being someone who’s really good at asking questions,” he added. “Prompting AI is very similar.

Keke Palmer has worn many hats over her career so far: actress, entrepreneur, producer, podcast host, singer, author.But the 31-year-old spends her money prudently due to her humble upbringing, she says: Living below her means is her top financial habit for having a secure lifestyle.”I live under my means. I think it’s incredibly important,” says Palmer. “If I have $1 million in my pocket, my rent is going to be $1,500 — that’s how underneath my means I’m talking. My car note is going to be $340. I don’t need a [Bentley] Bentayga, I’ll ride in a Lexus.” As a child,…
