College test prep scams are happening

Recently, we heard about scams targeting parents of high school students preparing for college. The scammers claim to be from The College Board – the organization responsible for the PSAT and SAT tests. They call or email you, asking for credit card numbers so they can send PSAT prep materials that the student has supposedly requested. Often the scammers have the student’s name, address and phone number – making them seem more believable. Except your student didn’t ask for materials, […]

$2 billion Illinois rail project falls behind high-speed targets

SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Amtrak riders are still waiting for higher train speeds along the Chicago-to-St. Louis route. Officials promised travel at up to 110 mph along the line as part of a nearly $2-billion dollar project largely funded by Federal economic stimulus dollars awarded under then-President Barack Obama. Recent projections had trains reaching 90 mph on a portion of the trip in 2018, but the timetable now has been pushed into this year. Installing and testing new federally-mandated […]

Tesla missed their 2018 sales target, but does it matter?

Despite the fact the electric vehicle sales were up by more than 300 percent in California this last quarter, that wasn’t enough to help Tesla exceed its sales target. The company, based in Fremont, reported earlier this week that it had missed its sales estimate by around 1.5 percent, spooking investors who firmly believed that once the firm overcame its production issues, its sales would soar. Tesla is starting to realize that getting ahead in the automobile industry is no […]

This only confirms that the duopoly embraces corruption. In other words, the same political clusterfuck still exists: Illinois still spends nearly $143.79 billion for every $108.53 billion taken in. The state has an operational debt of […]

Property rentals and letting doesn’t have to be difficult

The property rental market is still dominated by private landlords whose property portfolios might only include a single or a small number of properties. With the potential drop in returns and the increased cost of rental, such as the expense of complying with local authority requirements, means that many of these landlords are looking to reduce other costs. Letting agencies are coming under increased pressure to provide a more cost-effective and efficient service. Add to this the fact that there […]
