Project 2025, a 900-page blueprint for the next Republican president, is gaining attention for its proposals to overhaul the federal government. Among those changes: a major restructuring of the U.S. tax code. The tax proposals of Project 2025, if enacted, would likely affect every adult in the U.S. by tossing out the nation's long-standing system of multiple tax brackets, which is designed to help lower-income Americans pay a smaller share of their income in federal taxes compared with middle- or high-income workers.

Before finishing school this past semester, students at Tulane University completed one final project. They designed, created and built a tiny 440-square-foot home to benefit someone in their community who hasn't had a place to call home in nearly two decades. Benjamin Henry used to live under Interstate 10, which runs right through the heart of #NewOrleans. He said that his story is one of bad decisions involving drugs and alcohol. For nearly 10 months, the students worked to build Henry's piece of paradise as part of their assignment for the UrbanBuild program at Tulane. For Henry, it's not only a new chapter in his life but also the best. "I want everybody to know that as long as you have hope… as long as you hang in there, there's gonna be some breakthrough. And I'm having my breakthrough right now. Hallelujah," he said.

If you or a co-worker is extroverted, personable and equipped with other soft skills but low on technical experience, you could be what is known as a "personality hire." These employees are often charismatic and have stellar interpersonal skills, which can go a long way in the workplace. Indeed, so-called personality hires serve a valuable purpose: They boost morale, cheer on coworkers, and can seal deals with clients. Almost half of workers — 48% — consider themselves a personality hire, according to a recent survey from career site Monster. Of those, 85% say they bring with them the ability to strengthen relationships with clients, customers and coworkers. "Personality hires refer to employees that were hired for their personality. Think about their charisma and their ability to cheer the team on," said Vicki Salemi, career expert for Monster. "If it were baseball, they'd be on the top step of the dugout cheering on the team. They are hired for their approach to work and their attitude."

One California man is showing how small words can make a huge impact in people's daily lives. Every school morning for years, Dick Kazan has been standing on the street in Palos Verdes Estates offering something nice to say. He wishes for everyone — particularly children on their way to school — to have a good day. "Everybody, no exceptions, wants to feel important. I want them to feel important," the 79-year-old said. "I want them to feel beautiful. I want them to feel needed. And I want them to feel safe."
