SUMMARY: After Hurricane Helene triggered a devastating mudslide, an 11-year-old boy, Jamie Parker, was trapped under rubble for three hours. The mudslide destroyed his family’s home, leaving them with nothing as they recovered from the traumatic event. Jamie’s sister Gemma and their grandfather managed to escape and seek help. The family now lives in a rental as homeowner’s insurance denied their claim due to the nature of the disaster. With their home completely mangled, they continue to grapple with the loss while relying on the recently approved $273 million in relief money to aid recovery efforts.

International students urged to return to US campuses before Trump inauguration
SUMMARY: As President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration approaches, U.S. colleges are advising international students to return to campus before Jan. 20, 2025, to avoid potential travel bans like those from his first term. Trump previously issued a travel ban targeting citizens from predominantly Muslim countries and indicated plans to expand such restrictions. Many international students, particularly from the 15 affected nations, worry about the impact on their ability to stay in the U.S. Schools like Harvard, MIT, and USC have issued advisories, urging students to return early or prepare for possible delays at immigration control.

Smart holiday spending
SUMMARY: Experts warn that using “Buy Now, Pay Later” options during holiday shopping could lead to missed payments and bad credit. This payment method, often used by younger generations like Gen Z, breaks up payments into smaller amounts, but can accumulate unnoticed debt, affecting monthly budgets. Studies show that Gen Z’s credit card debt is increasing, and small payments can quickly add up to a significant amount. Experts suggest assessing needs vs. wants and saving for larger purchases to avoid financial strain in the future, especially when considering long-term goals like homeownership or retirement. Have you ever considered using “Buy Now, Pay Later” when shopping?
