Gen Z cares more than any other generation about how much money their romantic partner has, survey shows. It's a sign of their economic plight - Fortune

Everyone who has gone through an awkward phase has heard the old refrain, “It’s what on the inside that counts.” Sage advice, but it might need a cynical addendum: “It’s what’s in the inside of your wallet that counts.”

That’s if you ask more than a third of Americans, who say they value financial compatibility more than physical or intellectual compatibility, per Northwestern Mutual’s latest wave of its 2023 Planning & Progress Study, which surveyed more than 2,700 people. Aligning on money is all the more pressing for younger generations, who are earlier on in their relationships and careers—nearly half (49%) of Gen Zers view financial compatibility as more important than physical compatibility. That’s compared to 40% of millennials, 35% of Gen Xers, and 30% of baby boomers.

It’s more complicated than just searching for good looks or riches; it’s a sign of younger generations’ economic experiences. Finances have long been a stressor for couples, from sharing a bank account to negotiating housework around who is the primary breadwinner to just spending in general. But it becomes all the more urgent when people feel financially insecure. While data indicates a strong economy, many Americans are still reeling from inflation, layoff and recession fears, socioeconomic turmoil, and the pandemic.

Lead Levels in Children’s Applesauce May Be Traced to Cinnamon Additive -

The F.D.A. is investigating the sources of cinnamon and other ingredients produced outside the U.S. as the possible cause of lead poisoning in dozens of children. Advocates are urging mandatory testing of lead in food.

With dozens of children across the United States suffering from lead poisoning, federal regulators are now investigating whether the culprit is cinnamon that was added to some popular applesauce pouches, and if lead had been added somewhere along the global supply chain, either to enhance the spice’s reddish color or to add weight.

In November, the Food and Drug Administration announced a national recall of three million pouches of cinnamon applesauce made in Ecuador and sold at dollar stores and other outlets under the WanaBana, Schnucks and Weis brand names.

A boomer who quit taxi driving to drive for Uber and Lyft said he 'can't afford to take a day off' to make ends meet - Business Insider

Jerry, 60, spent 17 years as a taxi driver in Reno, Nevada. But he said he paid over $2,100 a month just to lease the taxi, so he quit and started driving for Uber and Lyft, where his monthly car payment was less than half the cost.

Jerry, who asked to use just his first name to avoid professional repercussions, made the transition thinking it would give him more financial stability. For the first six months, it did. Some months, he earned a lot more money while paying off two months at a time for his hybrid car.

But he's noticed it's become much harder to pay his bills. Screenshots shared with Business Insider show rides in his area paying below $0.80 per mile, which he said he cannot afford given gas prices are still around $4.60 a gallon.

2 planes narrowly avoided colliding on a Colorado runway after a pilot's quick-thinking maneuver - Business Insider

Two planes narrowly avoided colliding on a runway in Colorado after the pilot of the JetBlue plane made a quick-thinking maneuver.

Unclear communication between the planes and the air-traffic-control center led to one plane taking off and one coming in to land on the same runway at around the same time on January 22, 2022, according to a National Transit Safety Board report published this week.

"I hope you don't hit us," the Beechcraft B300 King Air flight crew said as it descended to land at Yampa Valley Regional Airport in Hayden.
