- Description
- As state compensation payments for Russian soldiers killed in the Ukraine war have skyrocketed, a disturbing new trend is emerging: women dubbed "black widows" are being accused of tricking vulnerable recruits into marriage purely for financial gain. In some shocking cases, women are marrying soldiers on their deathbeds or targeting isolated recruits so they can collect tens of thousands of dollars in compensation if the soldier is killed on the front lines. One grieving daughter revealed she had no idea her father had even joined the army—let alone gotten married—until she received his death certificate and realized a stranger was poised to take the payout. The scandal has even reached Russian social media, where two podcast hosts were recently forced to apologize after callously joking that marrying a doomed soldier was an easy way to get on the property ladder with an 8 million ruble payout.

- With Tax Credits Gone, Would You Still Buy An EV?

- Description
- Despite high gas prices plaguing drivers for most of the year, the pain at the pump isn't enough to convince many consumers to switch to an electric vehicle. EV sales across the U.S. are currently in a slump, and industry experts are pointing to a few key reasons why buyers are turning away. Along with concerns over the nation's charging infrastructure, the financial incentives are disappearing. The $7,500 tax credit for buying an EV was halted late last year, and the average transaction price for a new electric vehicle sits at around $57,000—roughly $10,000 more than the rest of the auto industry. However, with EV inventory sitting on dealer lots, experts say great leasing deals are available for those willing to test out the electric lifestyle. What is keeping you from making the switch to an electric vehicle? Is it the price, the charging stations, or something else? Let us know in the comments.
