In Praise of ‘John Wick,’ The Last Great American Action-Movie Franchise

It was just a guy’s name. You could guess that he was played by Keanu Reeves, given that we’d seen laughing with a woman over a meal and kissing her against a picture-postcard vision of Manhattan’s skyline. Then we go from Sad Keanu sitting bedside in a hospital to Sadder Keanu standing graveside as a coffin is lowered into the ground. Later, he gets his wife’s posthumous gift to him: a puppy. The man and his dog, who is indeed adorable by any standard, tool around in his vintage Mustang. We know something else happened, because we’ve also briefly glimpsed Bloody Keanu, lying battered on a warehouse floor. But as far we knew, this was a movie about a gentleman — he’s called John — who lives in an exceedingly well-furnished apartment, is deep in the throes of grief and has only his faithful companion to help him move on. Maybe the pooch will teach him how to love again. Maybe he’ll meet someone nice at the dog park. The title told you nothing. It was just a guy’s name.

How I’m Getting Richer Every Day

I’m not hungry for money. Compared to several years ago, when I had less money, I still have the same life.

I wake up, drink my freshly brewed coffee, read a good book, and then start working until about 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Then, I put on my shorts and t-shirt and start working out.

Sometimes I listen to music during my workouts, and sometimes I don’t. After working out, I have dinner with my family. We watch a TV show or movie after we eat. And then, I get back to working or reading.

Brené Brown Wants to Change Your Life

Leave a comment

.

Brené Brown wants me to watch Unforgotten, a British TV series I’ve never heard of. She also likes Catastrophe and loves Fleabag, though she requests I spoil her on the first season’s twist ending. (Her hunch was accurate.) She can’t watch Game of Thrones (too violent) or The Act (“I have a child-protective services background!”)—but she also wants me to catch up on Hulu’s National Treasure, which I forgot existed, and gushes about The Good Fight, “some of the smartest television on right now.”

Nine-ish hours earlier, the blonde, sparkling-eyed 53-year-old former competitive swimmer had been on CBS This Morning; the night before, I had watched her in conversation with The New York Times’s Melena Ryzik. But when I told Brown I write about TV for Vanity Fair, she lit up—and grilled me about my favorite shows, turning the tables before we had even started.

Which is funny, because Brown is a TV star herself. In April, Netflix debuted Brené Brown: The Call to Courage, a roughly hour-long special about how bravery arises from engaging with our deepest vulnerabilities. It builds upon Brown’s earlier work: two viral TED Talks and several books, including the best-sellers Dare to Lead, The Gifts of Imperfection, and the most popular one of all, Daring Greatly. Their essential themes are the same. The path to a meaningful, loving life comes through a willingness to be vulnerable—and a rejection of the socially produced shame that convinces us we, or our vulnerabilities, are not worthy of love.

Confessions of a VIP private jet flight attendant

Leave a comment

Click the link below the picture

.

It’s a travel privilege enjoyed by a lucky few — from celebrities, royals, self-made entrepreneurs and oligarchs. But the smooth running of private jets depends, usually, on a select few. Among the most attentive are flight attendants who spend hours, often alone, tirelessly ensuring their passengers receive a premium, 5-star service.

While life as a VIP air hostess comes with the perk of traveling the world, their jobs can be demanding and stressful.
.
They may serve their passengers every need, but the skills required by flight attendants are much more than that of a waitress — they’re cocktail mixologists, cleaners, personal assistants, caterers and even dog sitters.
.
Flight attendant Kimberley Benton has been working in the industry for nine years. She says it was her love for traveling that drew her into the world, which has enabled her to embark on 14 world tours. During her lifetime, she’s traveled to more than 130 countries and traveled on 27 different types of business jets.

Mary Kalymnou has been working as a flight attendant for 13 years.

7 Scary Numbers That Show How Bad Student Loan Debt Is For Mental Health

Leave a comment

Click the link below the picture

.

It’s no wonder the country’s $1.5 trillion in collective student loan debt is being called a crisis. Young borrowers are delaying major life milestones such as buying homes and starting families because of the financial burden of their loans. A million borrowers default on their loans every year.

But there’s another equally damaging consequence of student loan debt that’s talked about less often: its impact on borrowers’ mental health. That’s certainly not something that’s discussed with 18-year-olds as they prepare to sign the dotted line on a 10-year loan.

Here’s Why Airplane Boarding Got So Ridiculous

Leave a comment

Click the link below the picture

.

On a recent Delta flight, I discovered I had been demoted.

Until this January, Delta boarding included a “Sky Priority” phase that put frequent flyers in the two middle tiers (“Platinum Medallion” and “Gold Medallion”) of Delta’s four-tier elite flyer program together with passengers sitting in extra-legroom “Comfort+” seats at the front of the coach cabin. But, since January, the Comfort+ passengers have been allowed to go before the mid-tier Medallion passengers like me, which means I often have to board later than I was used to.

Rough, right?

Of course, it wasn’t always this complicated. I am an old millennial, old enough to remember that airplanes used to be boarded from back to front. People needing special assistance and first class got to board first, but after that, you filed in based on your row number. That’s all changed, for two reasons, both of which can be thought of as technological advancements of sorts.
