I’ve got an uncle who’s a doctor (well, chiropractor)

Republican here. Yes, his old shit was funny. And I feel it’s right to defend famous millionaires because it doesn’t matter what you’re worth, it matters if you are in the right. The problem here is that a person you idolize doesn’t agree with your world view. Political correctness is out of control and destroying

This isn’t true and has been proven many times. The pay gap is about 95% which can easily be explained by factors like women working less, women are less likely to demand raises, women taking time off to raise children, etc.

There is an episode of “Explained” on Netflix on the gender wage gap that was one of the most even-handed treatments of the issue I have ever seen.

Advice from every financial planner I've ever spoken with:

Leasing is commonly understood to be the worst financial decision you could ever make on a car. Seriously. There really is no situation where leasing is a god idea. Why? Simple:
