COMMENTARY: Minimum wage hike would aid American Dream I’m a CEO with a GED, and I have walked in the shoes of a minimum-wage worker. I know from experience that it’s a tougher road today. The minimum wage buys fewer necessities now than it did when I needed it to survive.

I learned to be resourceful, making money by selling my most precious possessions. The sound of change in my pocket gave me hope. From ages 15 to 18, I was homeless. I did what I had to do to survive and put money in my pocket. I...

When Wang graduated from college in 2009, she was having trouble finding work in the Great Recession. She moved to...

The cost of her long-term care insurance just went up 80% Joyce Viets’ dad was in the life insurance business, so she knew from an early age that you have to plan ahead. “I heard about actuarials my entire life,” the Temecula resident told me. Viets, 82, purchased long-term care insurance nearly two decades ago, anticipating there would come a time when she’d be glad to cover the costs of a nursing home, which can run nearly $300 a day in California for a private room. So it was with more than a little dismay — and a strong sense of betrayal — that she received a recent letter from her long-term care insurance provider, Genworth Financial, informing her that her monthly...
