How do the veep candidates manage their money?

A record 58% of Americans owned stocks in 2022, according to the Federal Reserve.

Democratic vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz was not one of them, Medora Lee reports.

In fact, Walz didn’t own many investments, based on what's been released. No stock, no bonds, no home or any other real estate. Instead, the former teacher and congressman’s assets consisted mostly of pensions, whole life insurance and college savings, a 2019 filing showed. He and his wife, Gwen, earned $166,719 before taxes in 2022.

Meanwhile, his Republican rival for the vice presidency, J.D. Vance, has a portfolio that includes stocks, real estate and cryptocurrency.

🍔 Today's Menu 🍔

For many Americans, McDonald's Happy Meals used to be an event. Sure, there was the food, but there were also toys like the Hamburglar and nuggets dressed like cowboys.

You never knew what you were going to get and scoring a new toy became an event: For children, that is.

Now, McDonald's is trying to tap into that energy with a grown-up version of the Happy Meal, which officially launched on Tuesday. Called Collector's Meals, the new menu item is a combo meal that comes with six unique cups.

Will adult Happy Meals release the inner child in us all?
