Good morning! It's Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money. |
Last week, while reporting a story on errors in credit reports, I went online and read my own. Turns out the credit agencies have (at least) eight versions of my name. Here's what else I found. (And see the companion story in the bullet points below.) |
It was a busy weekend. Here are two other stories you may have missed. |
Why Americans keep leaving big cities |
In 2022, places like Manhattan and Atlanta, which had become ghost towns during the pandemic, began seeing more people moving back, raising hopes for a resurgence of the nations' largest cities. |
But the latest U.S. Census Bureau figures show the revival was short-lived, Paul Davidson reports. Americans have continued to flee large metro areas in massive numbers as remote work becomes entrenched. |
High-wage remote jobs fade |
Higher pay requires higher commitment, Medora Lee reports, and that includes showing up at the office every day. |
After looking at more than a half-million jobs posted over the past year, Ladders found remote and hybrid jobs paying at least $250,000 annually plummeted by 95% and 60%, respectively. Only about 4% of these quarter-million-dollar jobs are fully remote, down from 10% a year ago. |
Return-to-office is a rude awakening for millions of Americans who were forced to go remote or hybrid during the pandemic and discovered the benefits of work-from-home status. |
