Make it Rain!
With temperatures hitting 120 degrees Fahrenheit, The United Arab Emirates (UAE) used drones to zap electrical charges into clouds to initiate artificial rainfall...How cool is that!?
"All-electric...or nothing?"
Mercedes-Benz plans to transition to all-electric vehicles by the end of the decade. Electric vehicles have been a hot topic in the market. How will this added competition affect Tesla?...Consider diversifying your portfolio!
Fight or flight
Southwest Airlines reported that people are flying for leisure at levels similar to 2019! Will these levels be sustained as we continue to fight the pandemic? Will you take a celebratory vacation once you become financially free? Will we be invited? 😋
