On This Weeks Show: - The maker of Durex condoms has said sales have fallen as the coronavirus lockdown is “having a toll on the number of intimate occasions” across the world. And once the lockdowns are east, there are concerns of a global condom shortage because strict lockdown rules in Malaysia, one of world's top rubber producers and a major source of condoms, had made it difficult for condom factories to operate. Karex, the world's largest condom producer which makes one in five of all condoms, has warned of a global condom shortage after closing three of its factories. - A survey says men and women aren't in sync in the bedroom when it comes to the optimum time. Men feel most frisky between 6AM and 9AM, while women are feeling the love way into the night — between 11PM and 2AM. And the percentages of those who enjoy getting it on during the other gender's preferred window are similarly low, with just 16 percent of men wanting sex before falling asleep for the night, and a mere 11 percent of women wanting to take care of business as soon as the alarm goes off. - Want to live to 100? Well a study suggests you get 10 hours of sleep a night. In the study, researchers found that people who reach 100 are three times more likely to spend at least 10 hours a night in bed. The study involved analysis of data from a 2005 Chinese survey. - A study (Purdue University/University of Virginia) suggests that there may be a perfect salary for achieving personal fulfillment. The idea was to figure out at which salary range adults were best able to happily manage their work/life balance. Putting a number on that sort of thing is difficult, but the researchers managed the trick nonetheless. The study concluded that happiness will cost about $95,000 annually. Researchers were careful to note that this figure applies only to individuals and attempts to measure happiness over the course of a person's entire life. Day-to-day happiness seems to cost less. Still, the findings are a bit concerning given that the average American household only takes in about $65,000 annually. - Did you receive your stimulus check yet? A bunch of dead people did. The Treasury Department says it is working on a plan to “retrieve” $1,200 economic impact payments that were accidentally sent to dead people. Currently tens of millions of people who are very much alive are still waiting for their payments. There have been dozens if not hundreds of reports of people receiving money meant for their deceased relatives. One deceased woman in Connecticut's check was even labeled “DECD” for deceased. - The US marriage rate fell to its lowest level on record in 2018, federal stats released Wednesday show. New figures from the National Center for Health Statistics reveal the nationwide marriage rate fell 6 percent from 2017 to 2018. It's the lowest rate since the US government started tracking such data in 1867. Researchers say there's no clear reason for the decline and it's expected the ongoing coronavirus pandemic to further drive down the number of Americans getting hitched.

Is A Clerical Filing Error To Blame For An Elderly Fresno Resident Being Frozen Out Of Her Trust Fund? Fresno, California Resident Leslie Revis says that her late husband Larry Revis always provided for their family. Upon his passing in 2016, Larry left Leslie a trust fund, unfortunately the money in the account is frozen. Leslie believes that her account which is managed by Don Vincenti, CFP® of Stifel is inaccessible due to a clerical error. "My accounts are titled incorrectly. The accounts should now both be Estate accounts but, they are not. They are coded as "deceased" (DECD) status accounts," said Leslie Revis. "Because of the "deceased" status, (versus if they were properly and lawfully titled as estate accounts), attempts to process an external transfer of the assets from the Stifel brokerage to another company cannot be processed by the receiving company." Revis' daughter Mary Bass says that she is going to the media because repeated attempts to rectify the situation with Mr. Vicenti and Stifel have failed. "We are getting nowhere. We wish no ill will upon Mr. Vicenti and Stifel however, we cannot but, draw the conclusion that they are responsible for preventing my Mother from accessing her trust fund or even transferring it to another account for that matter," said Mary Bass. "My Mother has tried to transfer all assets from Stifel to E-Trade and to TD America to no avail because a "DECD" coded (titled) account isn't transferable- the Stifel Stockbroker would have to have the assets in an estate account and they refuse to follow any compliance procedure .

Governor Ned Lamont has said he is open to negotiating almost everything in his budget proposal. Well, it seems like lots of people are going to take him up on his offer. State legislators on opposite sides of the political spectrum are panning Lamont's plan to raise more than $500 million by expanding the goods and services subject to the state's sales tax. Union leaders feel slighted by his call for them to back changes to cost-of-living increases for future retired state workers. And Lamont's push for highway tolls faces local, state, and federal hurdles. Meanwhile, the governor's pick to lead the state's economic development efforts, David Lehman, sweated out tough questions Tuesday from Democratic lawmakers. Whether the former Goldman Sachs executive will win confirmation by the state Senate remains uncertain. This week, we tally up the opposition to the administration's agenda. We also delve into the concerns over state Sen. Alex Bergstein's paying for an extra legislative aide out of her own pocket.
