Police reported that a drunken Florida teenager drove his car onto a golf course, where he did donuts on a fairway before crashing the vehicle into a sand trap from which he could not escape. 19-year-old Jack Robertson reportedly barreled onto The Bayou Club at approximately 6:30 p.m. this past Tuesday. Police charge that Robertson drove with “willful or wanton disregard” for the safety of individuals on the course, which was open. A Sheriff’s Deputy reported, “The defendant was witnessed doing donuts on the fairway and driving on the course. The defendant then crashed his vehicle into a sand bunker and got it stuck.” After Robertson was collared, his blood alcohol level was recorded at more than twice the legal limit. He was charged with felony criminal mischief and a pair of misdemeanors--reckless driving and driving under the influence. (https://goo.gl/dWNB5r)

We Now Know Exactly How Much Money It Takes to Buy Happiness! Maybe money can't buy you love, but psychologists from Purdue University have a new study that says it can buy you happiness... and they know exactly how much it takes to do just that. They found that people are most satisfied when pulling in a salary of $95,000 a year - but that's per person - not per family. The study, published in Nature Human Behavior, analyzed data from the Gallup World Poll, which includes a representative sample of participants from 164 countries. They were looking to define a point of "income satiation," the point at which more money doesn't make you any happier. They found the ceiling at which more money doesn't provide any more life satisfaction was $95,000, on average. After that, in fact, subjective well-being started to fall as income went up. Emotional satisfaction, on the other hand, came slightly cheaper-positive emotions were correlated with more money up to $60,000, and negative emotions decreased as salary increased, up until $75,000. Obviously these figures vary by the standard of living in your country. The happiness ceiling in North America is $105,000. (MentalFloss.com

MOMENT OF DUH:By LearnWithoutLoans.com (Find Funding For College)
According to reports, a former Apple employee’s penchant for Victoria’s Secret merchandise led to her arrest and conviction in a $243,000 embezzlement scheme. Authorities in New Jersey said 42-year-old Anna Branca was sentenced Friday to three years in a state prison. She had pleaded guilty in January to a second-degree theft by deception charge. The former administrative assistant for Apple used a company credit card to make purchases at the lingerie retailer and at Gucci and Louis Vuitton shops. But it was the Victoria’s Secret purchases that Apple discovered first, leading to her undoing. Branca, who was given an American Express card for making purchases related to her job, racked up $110,000 in retail spending. Director of the New Jersey Division of Criminal Justice said, “Branca went on a lavish shopping spree at the expense of her employer, but ultimately she bought herself a state prison term.”
