As routes shift, flight fares go on steep ascent
New Delhi: Airfares from India to several international destinations have risen sharply in the past month, travel companies said, potentially intensifying worries for travellers especially families looking to head out for the summer holidays. Airline operating costs are getting impacted by airspace closures due to the Israel-Iran conflict, forcing longer flight detours, and fuel price volatility, the companies said, adding lower seat capacity on certain routes is also weighing on ticket prices. Fares could rise further if the route diversions and impact on flight frequencies continue, they said. Europe is likely to see the sharpest fare hikes, especially for routes to France, Germany and the UK, said Jatinder Paul Singh, global CEO of Viacation, a travel solutions provider . "From India, airfares to Europe have gone up by 20-35% between March and July based on forward bookings data." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like What Is a Family Trust, and How Do You Set One Up?

Where home values increased and decreased most
Where home values increased and decreased most Sharp changes in home values can have many ripple effects throughout the local economy. In the short term, both potential homesellers and homebuyers may be impacted by changes in local competitive forces and affordability. Over time, these changes can affect the city's tax base, current homeowners' refinancing options, demand in the local job markets, and other dynamics may be impacted by such changes, eventually making its way to many intertwined bottom lines from city to individual resident. With this in mind, SmartAsset ranked 100 of the largest cities based on the biggest one-year changes in the typical home value between 2024 and 2025. Key findings Home values increased by over 13.5% in Irvine, California. At the end of March 2024, the typical home in Irvine was estimated to be worth $1.42 million. This shot up to $1.61 million by the end of March 2025. The five-year increase in home values in Irvine was also the highest studywide at 82.1%Knoxville, Tennessee, sees 80% growth in home value over five years. Second only to Irvine on the five-year timeframe, Knoxville homes were valued just over $198,000 in early 2020-and just over $356,000 by 2025. Growth over the one-year timeframe showed a cooling trend with a modest 2.11%.Home prices cool down this year in these otherwise hot Florida cities. Naples, Florida, saw the biggest decrease in home values at -5.9% to around $581,000. Saint Petersburg, Florida, ranked second in this metric at -4.92%, bringing home values down to just above $364,000. This comes after a recent growth spurt in home values for both cities, bringing the five-year change to 63.4% and 52.3%, Midwestern cities join the ranks of California cities for high growth in home values. Milwaukee (8.2%) ranks second this year for highest growth in home values at 8.2%, with a modest home value of nearly $209,000 compared to its first- and third-place Californian counterparts, where home values teeter closer to $1.5 million. Also making the top 10 cities for home value growth this year are Cleveland (6.5%); Toledo, Ohio (5.8%); and Madison, Wisconsin (5.2%).Demand is strong in Kentucky cities. Louisville and Lexington ranked eighth and ninth for home value growth. In Louisville, a 5.4% increase puts home values now around $249,000, compared to a 5.3% increase for an estimated value of nearly $316,000 in Lexington.

Former NFLer Robert Griffin III was distraught when he ‘only' got $6.9M of $14M signing bonus — what happened
When the Washington Redskins signed then-rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III for his first contract in 2012, the deal's estimated $21.1 million price tag was all over the headlines. What didn't make the headlines was how much Griffin actually got to take home at the time. In a recent interview with former MMA fighter Demetrious Johnson the Mighty podcast, the former athlete revealed that the deal was structured to give him $14 million upfront as a signing bonus with the rest later, but he only saw $6.9 million appear in his bank account. Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) "I called my agent immediately,' Griffin recalls. 'I'm distraught! 'Oh my god, they took all the money out. Where is the $14 million?' And he's like, 'Rob, it's taxes.'' Griffin admits the experience stung, but it ultimately highlighted a harsh truth: many pro athletes end up broke simply because they were never taught the financial basics. It's a lesson that resonates far beyond the sports world. Rookie athletes with rare talent in their sport are often entrusted with multimillion dollar contracts, but many are woefully unprepared for this windfall. Griffin admits he wasn't ready to manage his immense fortune when he was first signed. 'I wasn't financially literate when I first got into the NFL,' he told Johnson. 'I never had that kind of money.' This is why Griffin — who was just 22 years old at the time — was unaware that marginal tax rates for multimillionaires can be as high as 50% in some states, according to SmartAsset. However, a lack of essential financial skills isn't restricted to those who earn big payouts and have complicated tax situations. On average, U.S. adults could only answer 49% of 28 personal finance questions correctly, according to the 2025 TIAA Institute-GFLEC Personal Finance Index. This rate of financial literacy has remained more or less the same over the past eight years, according to the report. The report also found how detrimental this lack of financial skills could be. Adults with low financial literacy were twice as likely to be constrained by debt, three times more likely to be financially vulnerable and five times more likely to not have at least one month of emergency savings. Simply put, learning new financial skills could help you mitigate many of the economic risks most people face. However, there is another, potentially easier way to boost your personal financial security: hiring a professional. Read more: Want an extra $1,300,000 when you retire? Dave Ramsey says — and that 'anyone' can do it If you don't have the time or inclination to learn about money, you could simply hire a professional to manage your situation for you. Experienced accountants, tax advisors, investment advisors or financial planners can help you create a better path to any of your financial goals and place guardrails on your budget to make sure you're not vulnerable. Unfortunately, only 27% of U.S. adults work with financial advisors, according to a 2024 survey by YouGov. Those who may need this assistance the most are also the least likely to work with professionals. Only 9% of adults who did not finish high school work with financial advisors, while 45% of those with postgraduate degrees do. Hiring a professional can be expensive, but the costs are often offset by the added tax savings, improved investment outcomes and better money management that an experienced advisor can offer. This could be one of the reasons why the NFL Players Association launched its Financial Advisors Program to help connect professional athletes with a prescreened list of financial professionals. The platform helps protect young rookies from financial mistakes Griffin and his peers can be at risk of making.

How to get in now This tiny hot Costco item has skyrocketed 74% in price in under 2 years — but now the retail giant is restricting purchases.

Where Americans earn the most from investments
Where Americans earn the most from investments Net capital gains, the profits from selling assets like stocks, real estate, or businesses, are a key measure of investment success and regional wealth. These gains are realized only upon sale and are taxable at preferential rates when held for a year or longer: 0%, 15% or 20%. Other investment incomes, such as ordinary dividends and taxable interest, which are taxed at generally higher income tax rates, or tax-exempt interest (often from municipal bonds), may offer other advantages for a diversified portfolio or retirement account withdrawal strategies. Overall, high net capital gains can signal robust markets and affluent populations, with realized gains potentially boosting local economies through tax revenues and spending. With this in mind, SmartAsset ranked U.S. counties and states by the average net capital gains reported on the latest tax return data per the IRS. Other types of investment gains were also considered. Key findings Teton County, Wyoming investment gains lead all counties by wide margin. Teton County reported the highest average net capital gain per return at $515,267, far surpassing other counties. With a relatively small number of returns (6,010 reporting gains out of 15,180 total), this affluent area also showed significant ordinary dividends ($196,121 average 6,150 returns) and qualified dividends ($167,921 average on 5,940 returns), signaling a concentration of high-net-worth individuals and diversified investment ekes past Wyoming for highest state-level investment gains. Florida topped the state rankings with an average net capital gain per return of $84,911. The state's 2,136,380 returns reporting gains amounted to $181.4 billion, bolstered by high activity in counties like Palm Beach ($40.4 billion in gains) and Miami-Dade ($37.4 billion). Wyoming comes in a close second place for average net capital gains of $84,246 across nearly 60,000 tax Georgia counties report the lowest capital gains. At the opposite end, Chattahoochee, Quitman and Taliaferro counties in Georgia have the lowest net capital gains in the contiguous states with an average of $2,400 or less each. Few returns reported net capital gains at all, as they were reported on less than 10% of tax returns across these Virginia lags in state-level investment returns. West Virginia reported the lowest average net capital gain per return at $14,612, with only 91,930 returns reporting $1.34 billion in gains. Wisconsin has the second lowest average net capital gains reported at $19,590.
