9 分钟Here's your money briefing for Thursday, April 17th.
I'm Julia Carpenter for The Wall Street Journal.
Market ups and downs can ripple through so many parts of your financial life,
from your homeownership dreams to your college savings plans and beyond.
But they can also affect your taxes.
Sometimes, as WSJ readers share, in surprisingly beneficial ways.
The ones who've shifted some of their holdings into more conservative investments seem happier.
They say they're not looking at market swings, but enjoying retirement.
We'll talk with Wall Street Journal reporter Ashlea Ebeling about the tax considerations to keep top of mind throughout this period.
That's after the break.
Talking about guns with others might not always feel comfortable, but it could save a life.
Here's a way to start a conversation.
Your family is going over to your neighbor's home for dinner for the first time.
How would you ask if there are any unlocked guns in the home?
Hey!
Hey, we're so excited for tonight.
Before we come over, though, may I ask if there are any unlocked guns in your home?
Our guns are stored securely, locked in a safe that the kids can't access.
Awesome.
