4 Legit Ways To Boost Your Pay This Year, According to Vincent Chan
It's quite common to hear that the current generation is lazy and doesn't want to work, but there's more to it than that. Financial guru Vincent Chan explained in a YouTube video that money is the main reason why people don't want to work anymore. While a minimum wage was enough to buy a house back in the day, many people who make six-figures still struggle with maintaining their monthly expenses. Student loans, housing, groceries, transportation, subscriptions and other costs all add up. Trending Now: Check Out: Chan also mentioned toxic environments and the disconnect between hard work and productivity as two key reasons why people don't want to work anymore. Productivity has soared since 1979 despite stagnant wages and people don't feel inclined to work in toxic environments when their money isn't enough to keep up with their living expenses. However, you can be the exception to the rule. There are people who can comfortably manage their expenses and these strategies can put you in that position. Your job may offer an opportunity to boost your income. While working more hours is an option, it's better to demand a raise. Chan suggests creating a 'Brag Folder' where you take screenshots of compliments you received via email and store them in an online folder. You can then present this folder to your employer during your performance review. This Brag Folder is similar to how businesses gather testimonials from happy customers. Read Next: Adding a side hustle to your schedule can boost your income, but you might end up earning more with your side hustle than your job. Some people replace their job with a side hustle in a few years, but you can also treat it as purely a side hustle if you like your job. A side hustle will diversify your income and help you develop new skills. You can also fall back on your side hustle if you get laid off and have to look for another full-time job. Some companies are more than happy to give you the raise you deserve and do everything they can to keep you. However, other companies take their employees for granted. If you find yourself in this position, you may want to do a job hop. Job hopping involves looking for higher-paying jobs and applying for them. You can get a higher income boost with this route, as it's possible to increase your income by 30% to 50% with the right job. Meanwhile, you're lucky if your current employer gives you a 3% raise each year. Regularly moving from one job to another can help you climb the corporate ladder much faster than staying in one spot. Knowing that you can move from one job to the next will also give you more confidence and leverage when negotiating a raise. There is a limit to how much money you can save. Chan explains that if you earn $5,000 per month, you cannot save $5,000 per month. However, it's still important to save and invest your money. If you have good money habits in place, you will know how to build your long-term financial future when your income doubles. While you shouldn't rush to use the money that you save and invest, these funds can boost your income. You can put the money in a high-yield savings account to receive guaranteed cash flow or you can put your cash in the stock market to potentially earn higher returns.

Meet TLC's 42-year-old divorced virgin who is into BDSM
Move over, Steve Carell, there's a new 40-year-old virgin. Rhasha Newkirk, a 42-year-old divorced virgin who is interested in BDSM, is one of the subjects of TLC's new reality series 'Virgins' (premiering Monday, June 9 at 9 p.m.). 'I actually feel great about being a virgin,' Newkirk, who lives in Jacksonville, FL, exclusively told The Post. Advertisement 6 The poster for the new TLC series 'Virgins.' TLC 'I think the main misconception about being a virgin late [in life] is that people just think that you're weird,' Newkirk, who has a YouTube channel, added. 'They think, 'Oh, there's something wrong with you.' And there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. [Someone's reasons] could be cultural. It could be the way you grew up.' She quipped: 'I'm not embarrassed at all.' Advertisement The show follows four virgins in their 30s and 40s as they navigate dating and their social lives. In addition to Rhasha, there's Sonali, a 37-year-old in Hollywood, Calif., who has some conservative attitudes about sex; Alex, a 34-year-old in Reading, Penn., who still lives in his parent's attic and is awkward with women; and Deanne, 35-year-old Los Angeles, Calif., resident who is picky and dismissive towards most men who ask her out. Newkirk said that the reason she's still a virgin in her 40s is because 'I know what I deserve.' 6 Rhasha Newkirk on 'Virgins.' TLC Advertisement 6 Rhasha Newkirk on 'Virgins.' TLC She added that she grew up watching her father pay for lunch and buy flowers for her mom. 'He'll do all these things, and that's what I'm used to…Some men today aren't stepping up to the plate like they should. And, I'm not going to tolerate the bare minimum.' Rhasha was married briefly to a South Korean man she met on a dating app. But, he was allegedly using her for Green Card status, so their marriage was never intimate, she explained. Advertisement 6 Rhasha Newkirk on 'Virgins.' TLC As to how she can possibly know that she's into BDSM – the practice made famous by the '50 Shades of Grey' series — she told The Post she's aware of her interest because she's 'got the Google!' Newkirk added that since she's 'not young,' she's aware of various sexual practices, even if she hasn't participated in them yet. 'Just being curious about things…I know everything,' she said, including what she 'wants to explore.' 6 Sonali, Deanne, Alex, and Rhasha on 'Virgins.' TLC 6 Rhasha Newkirk on 'Virgins.' TLC 'I think when [people] see someone who's an older virgin, they're like, 'how? Like, don't you have urges?' Absolutely, I have urges. But, I have my self-love.' Newkirk said that she knows her situation is unique. Advertisement 'But I also know that I'm not the only one with this type of story. And, I feel that people who choose to have their virginity [late in life] need representation,' Newkirk shared. 'You don't have to follow society or a timeline that guides people on how to do things. It's okay to be true to yourself and be authentic to yourself, and trust the journey that it will happen at the right time.'

Blake Lively Gets Org Support Amid Justin Baldoni Trial
A spokesperson for Blake Lively issued a statement as the number of organizations submitting amicus briefs in support of her amid her legal battle with Justin Baldoni hit 19. In December, Blake sued her It Ends With Us co-star and director, as well as the studio Wayfarer and other parties, alleging sexual harassment and retaliation. Justin subsequently sued Blake, alleging defamation and extortion, among other things. Both parties have denied the allegations of the other. Before we get into the update, you might be wondering what an amicus brief is. It stems from the Latin phrase "friend of the court," which allows people who aren't parties in the case to submit documents of support, arguing that the impact of the case will also affect them. So, why are all these orgs issuing amicus briefs? Let's take one that's been signed by 14 women's and anti-violence organizations. In it, they argue, "The retaliatory defamation lawsuit instigated by the Wayfarer parties against Blake Livelyis another example of 'DARVO' tactics (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender) in the post-#MeToo era where perpetrators of 'sexual violence,' in particular sexual harassment, attempt to silence their victims into submission." After a new brief was filed this week by Child USA, a nonprofit against child abuse, a spokesperson for Blake issued a statement to BuzzFeed that read, "19 leading survivors and organizations devoted to women's rights, children's rights and domestic violence have now signed onto four separate amicus briefs. All are united in opposing Justin Baldoni's attempt to dismantle a law designed to protect women who speak up—simply to protect himself." Justin's attorney has been reached for comment. "The latest briefs, filed by Child USA and Sanctuary for Families, add the voices of renowned nonprofits, victim advocates, and experts from around the world who are dedicated to safeguarding the rights and well-being of people who speak up," they continued. Justin has never been accused of child abuse. "Rather than defend his case on the facts, Baldoni is now contradicting years of his own public persona—abandoning the message of his #MeToo YouTube's, podcasts, TED Talks, and interviews, where he once upon a time urged men 'to listen to the women in your life…to hold their anguish and actually believe them, even if what they're saying is against you.' These women and organizations are sounding the alarm about his DARVO tactics, and the chilling effect they could have well beyond this case," the statement concluded. BuzzFeed has reached out to a representative for Justin for comment.
