Welcome to Monday, Daily Money readers. It's David here, keeping you on top of the news in these anxious times. |
Protests have erupted across the United States over the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after a white Minneapolis police officer kept his knee pressed into his neck. That has led to unrest and, in some cities, the looting of stores. CVS has decided to close locations across 20 states as a precaution. Phone calls to closed pharmacies will be rerouted to locations nearby so patients will have access to care. |
Millions of Americans are out of work because of COVID-19. But some are finding new callings as they scramble to replace lost income. An unemployed stagehand is suddenly an e-commerce mogul, peddling hard-to-find store items. A personal vacation adviser who lost her job may have found her true calling -- teaching English online. |
Across the country, people who are homeless or living in poverty are entitled to $1,200 stimulus checks but haven't found a way to access the money or are so disconnected from the mainstream that they don't believe the funds are theirs. |
