Covid booster shots are coming this fall. The Biden administration has called for boosters to be available for those that are fully vaccinated with Pfizer or Moderna eight months after their second shot. With the Delta variant, the coronavirus is still too widespread and too transmissible and the outcome of the pandemic seems pretty certain, the virus is not going away and will be endemic. Sarah Zhang, staff writer at The Atlantic, joins us for how we are going to have to live with coronavirus.
Next, older millennials are beginning to enter their high-earning years, but for many, it doesn’t feel like it. With a higher debt-to-income ratio and delaying home ownership and having a family, these higher-earning years might not provide the financial security they were hoping for. Julia Carpenter, personal finance reporter at the WSJ, joins us for how millennials are still struggling despite making more.
Finally, some hotels are going the way of the airline industry and offering a la carte pricing for certain services and amenities. Early check-in, access to the pool, gym use, or even daily housekeeping could be offered as add-ons in exchange for a lower room rate. Big hotel chains are still wary of such a change, but the fourth largest hotel owner is trying out the new business model. Craig Karmin, real estate bureau chief at the WSJ, joins us for a change up in hotel fees.
