A home equity loan lets you borrow against your home equity, which is the difference between your home's market value and the remaining balance on your mortgage. Like home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), home equity loans are secured by collateral: your home. In general, home equity loans tend to have lower interest rates than personal loans or credit cards. That's because home equity loans are secured debt, which makes them less risky for the lender. The downside is that if you miss payments,

President Trump turned his sights to the little-known Digital Equity Act, calling the program “racist” and “unconstitutional” in a post on his social media site Truth Social on Thursday, vowing to end the program “immediately.” “Immediate” turned out to be the very next day, when states and nonprofits began receiving notices that said their grants had been terminated. A copy of the notice obtained by CNET states, “As the President determined and as Secretary Lutnick agreed,” the Act uses “imper

President Donald Trump said he is killing a broadband grant program that was authorized by Congress, claiming that the Digital Equity Act of 2021 is racist and unconstitutional. "I have spoken with my wonderful Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick, and we agree that the Biden/Harris so-called 'Digital Equity Act' is totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL. No more woke handouts based on race! The Digital Equity Program is a RACIST and ILLEGAL $2.5 BILLION DOLLAR giveaway. I am ending this IMMEDIATELY, and sa

Bradley Tusk, co-founder and managing partner at Tusk Venture Partners, told TechCrunch in today’s episode of Equity that VC as we know it is dead. And it has been for the last four years. “Maybe there’s some VC that I’ve never heard of that’s awash with liquidity the last couple of years, but we haven’t returned $1 in capital to our LPs in four years,” Tusk said. VC has had a rough couple of years thanks to higher-interest rates, crashed startup valuations from 2021 highs, and stymied IPO and

Venture capital investment in European startups passed $52 billion last year, reflecting the market’s long-term growth trajectory and gradual stabilization after the out-sized peaks of 2021-2022 (driven largely by the COVID-19 pandemic), and the comparative slump of 2023, according to a new report. Although 2024 has seen political and regulatory turmoil, Europe’s talent pool of startups continues to increase, even if funding shortages kicked in last year, per global law firm Orrick’s new “Deal

Google has quietly updated the webpage for its Responsible AI and Human Centered Technology (RAI-HCT) team, the team charged with conducting research into AI safety, fairness, and explainability, to scrub mentions of “diversity” and “equity.” A previous version of the page used language such as “marginalized communities,” “diverse,” “underrepresented groups,” and “equity” to describe the RAI-HCT team’s work.

One mistake I’ve made in entrepreneurship is not understanding the difference between “cash businesses” and “equity businesses.” A cash business is like an ATM. It spits out money reliably, often immediately, but may have limited long-term value. You might replace your salary quite quickly with a cash business, but it’s often easier to compete with so someone could come eat your lunch, and it might be hard to scale past a certain revenue number. An equity business is more like planting a tree.
