A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/RLL1KozBUO8 According to a recent Angi survey - homeowners are planning a lot of projects this year. Top projects include building raised beds, laying new sod and adding a garden feature. Many of these projects can be DIY/ weekend warrior projects - especially if you have a green thumb - be mindful of what materials you are choosing for the project and take time to assess if these are actually good DIY projects for you. If you lack the time, tools or talent to take on a project, it might end up costing you more in the long run to fix any mistakes. One great way to take on a backyard project and keep to a budget is to pick a project with high visual impact and a lot of material choices - like adding a deck or a patio. With a range of decking and patio options there is one for every budget. Don’t forget to think about ongoing maintenance for your new backyard escape - dedicating some time and budget to ongoing maintenance will help keep your new yard in shape for years to come. Want to know how to keep on budget? Start by coming up with a realistic budget. Talk to several pros in your area to make sure you get high-quality work at a price that you’re comfortable with. Once you choose your pro, be very clear about your budget. A good pro will help you choose materials that work within your budget. You should also set aside 10% of the project cost for any unexpected expenses that come up during the renovation process.

News ReleasePart 7 of Legal & General’s U.S. Gig Economy Study measures Covid’s impact on independent workers’ earnings amid emerging work models
Legal & General
- 43% of gig workers reported earnings declined due to the pandemic; half of these were already in the lowest income segment - Impact on earnings differed widely by geography, with Texas and Colorado showing biggest decreases - 1/3 of gig workers said that the pandemic and current economic headwinds had little impact on earnings while 27% said their income increased The seventh segment of a broad new study sponsored by Legal & General Group ( LGEN, LGNNY ), Covid’s impact on gig worker earnings shapes evolving work models was released today. With the recently signed debt limit bill clawing back almost $30 billion of unspent Covid funding debt and against a backdrop of projections suggesting that economic headwinds could cause 3.2 million layoffs in the U.S., this report examines the resilience of independent workers during the pandemic, and their capacity to emerge stronger during economic disruptions such as Covid or periods of recession. This seventh part in the data-rich study found that under a third (27 percent) benefited while over a third (43 percent) reported that their income declined; the remaining third did not think they either gained or lost economic traction during the two-and-a half-year period. These numbers skewed significantly when put through a filter of high or low wage earners, with many more independent workers in the highest earnings segment (42 percent for those earning more than $200K annually) reporting earnings increases. Few gig workers—only 1 in 10—said that the pandemic was a catalyst for them to join the gig economy or had accelerated such a move. The study measured such specifics as: - How women freelancers fared and how their chosen fields helped inform this - How gig working parents (both male and female) were impacted, versus non-parents - Breakdown of increases vs. decreases by generation (millennials & Gen Z, Gen X, and Boomers) - Differing impacts on earnings across the 12 most populous U.S. states - Expectations of income changes during the next 12 months “It’s clear that we need to think of the gig economy as a long-term shift in the American work dynamic. A sizeable percentage of this large swath of the U.S. workforce was negatively impacted during the pandemic—notably women and lower-earning gig workers—though the data suggests many may have fared better than traditional employees. We’re able to pinpoint where inequities lie, and this research provides a good sense of where support is needed going forward. It also helps us understand how this segment of the workforce might fare during future economic disruptions, and therefore what provisions might be needed to help independent workers plan for their financial, health and retirement futures.” John Godfrey, Director of Levelling-Up, Legal & General Group Pros and cons of pandemic isolation vs. work-from-home Legal & General’s study also looks at the multifaceted societal factors leading to the impacts of Covid-19 on gig workers, including the isolation many reported feeling. Despite inequities and income loss, overall, the pandemic may have represented more continuity than departure for the Gig Economy: 13 percent selected “having a pandemic-ready work life already in place before March 2020” as one of the best things about gig work. “Our research confirms several inferred conclusions about the pandemic, while raising questions about other effects. U.S. gig workers were probably better prepared for the massive work shift out of the office than their salaried peers, as well as their earning power compared to salaried workers. However, the isolation many reported experiencing, while strongly felt across the entire workforce, points to freelancers’ lack of confidence that they’re ‘in the game’ and can safely move into a secure financial future.” John Godfrey, Director of Levelling-Up, Legal & General Group The final segment of this research will summarize the steps employers would likely need to take to get gig workers back into the traditional workplace—or to try it out for the first time.

Notes to Editors The information contained in this press release is intended solely for journalists and should not be relied upon by private investors or any other persons to make financial decisions. About the Study Legal & General undertook proprietary research into the attitudes and changes U.S. gig workers are experiencing in relation to their work situations and financial outlook. The U.S. Gig Economy research was compiled using original survey data from 1044 U.S.-based workers aged 18 to 60 who are neither students nor retired, and who earn at least 60% of their income from gig work. The data was collected via online survey fielded to individuals sample sourced from YouGov’s US panel. The Legal & General-designed survey was scripted and hosted on Gryphon, YouGov’s proprietary survey scripting platform, and the field work took place between August 19 and 31, 2022. Key demographics such as age, gender and region were allowed to fall out naturally. 20 questions were designed to understand facts about earnings, drivers of and barriers to gig working, financial product ownership & financial capacity when coming across adverse situations, and future expectations of being involved in the gig economy. Verbatim comments were captured by Legal & General in research carried out in June 2022.

News ReleaseDon’t Get Scammed: Tips for Avoiding Fraud After a Natural Disaster
YourUpdateTV
Click to view video accompanying this release: https://youtu.be/YCGvYBaBZes With hurricane and wildfire seasons on the horizon in many parts of the country, damage and loss to homes from these natural disasters can be unavoidable. The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) is warning those living in areas that could suffer from a natural catastrophe to not only be prepared for the disaster, but to be on guard for fraudulent contractors and vendors who take advantage of victims in the aftermath. Oftentimes, dishonest contractors target neighborhoods affected by disasters and make unsolicited stops at residential properties. They will take homeowners’ money, often overcharge them, and do shoddy or no work at all, promising that the insurance company will pay for it all. Insurance fraud related to natural disasters costs billions of dollars every year, which results in higher premiums for policyholders. In some cases, individual homeowners are on the hook for up to tens of thousands of dollars they may not be able to recover. On Tuesday, May 23rd, NICB President & CEO David J. Glawe conducted a nationwide media tour with TV stations across the country to discuss how to avoid home repair fraud after a natural disaster and many other consumer-friendly topics, as part of the organization’s third annual Contractor Fraud Awareness Week. During the media tour interviews, Glawe discussed: The steps homeowners can and should take prior to a natural disaster and how preparation can help reduce chances of becoming a victim of fraud; The kind of fraud that takes place following disasters while victims are trying to put their homes and lives back together; The best practices for disaster victims when hiring contractors or vendors and tips for avoiding dishonest contractors; The most common methods fraudulent contractors try to scam disaster victims; and The resources available to help homeowners and other disaster victims dishonest contractors or report fraud when they encounter it.
