    Counterfeit Conundrum: Nordstrom’s Fake Fendi Fencing Offense — Bag Buyers Beware!

    Happy Mother’s Day! Shout out to the woman who raised you!  If you bought your mom a gift from Nordstrom, you may have been scammed by a fake Fendi or a look-alike Louis Vuitton. Glendale scammers were reportedly purchasing designer bags online, then returning a counterfeit version of the item in person to the store. The State Line in Primm, Nevada is closing down because the town is doing away with its last remaining casino, the Primm Valley Casino Resort. It’s the end of an era for road trippers from Southern California to Las Vegas. The Washington Post has come to the defense of sugar, saying the Trump and Health and Human Services head Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Are being too hard on the sweet stuff.  4:05pm — Happy Mother’s Day!

    Will You Marry Me? No ‘I Do’ til Debt Free, So Dave Says Dump Him!

    On-air financial consultant Dave Ramsey blew up the internet with his recent debt advice to a nurse who would like to marry her boyfriend who does not wish to put a ring on it until she is out of student-loan debt. She owes $90K and while her boyfriend makes $250K a year, he doesn’t want to propose until she is debt free, so Ramsey was adamant she dumps in because she’s a “princess” who deserves better. Lou thinks the advice she received was terrible. Is it reasonable to expect a lover to take on your debt?  5:05pm — On-air financial consultant Dave Ramsey blew up the internet with his recent debt advice to a nurse who would like to marry her boyfriend who does not wish to put a ring on it until she is out of student-loan debt. So, what was Ramsey’s controversial advice? Let’s find out!  5:18pm — To more on the nurse, who has $90K in student loan debt. Her boyfriend, who makes $250K a year, doesn’t want to propose until she is debt free, so Ramsey was adamant she dumps in because she’s a “princess” who deserves better. Lou thinks the advice she received was terrible. Is it reasonable to expect a lover to take on your debt?  5:34pm — Does Dave Ramsey’s cutting advice to the nurse slice both ways? In other words, if her boyfriend didn’t have a job, would Ramsey advise her not to marry him for that reason? How does a couple build an empire while paying debt? Lou Penrose’s relationship advice: Don’t live with your boyfriend unless he puts a ring on it first. Also, he has just 18 months to come up with a ring and a date, or you kick him to the gutter and get yourself another.  5:50pm — Fine dining is getting really expensive, but the industry is still doing well and making bank, as is the fast-food industry. Now, casual dining is trying to come up with new ways to entice diners back to their establishments.
