what I'm looking for. Thanks much in advance!

POLL RESULTS

Here are the results for our 2021 Financial Infidelity Survey,
to publish on CCDC on February 8:

41% have committed financial infidelity against their current
spouse/partner (that's 41% of U.S. adults who are currently

spent more than their current spouse/partner was okay with.

kept a secret bank or credit card account.

15% of millennials, 9% of Gen Xers and 9% of baby boomers have

The most common explanations for keeping secret debts and
accounts were: privacy/a desire to control my own finances
(30%), it never came up/I never felt the need to share (25%),
I'm embarrassed about the way I handle money (23%), I don't
trust my partner with money (23%), in case the relationship ends

support an addiction (gambling, drugs, alcohol, etc.).

Name: Dan Rafter Bankrate

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bthk@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Bankrate

Deadline: 10:00 AM EST - 25 January

Query:

Hello, and hope all is well. I'm a freelance writer working on a
story for consumer site Bankrate about the Click to Pay
one-click online shopping service now offered by Visa, American
Express, Discover and Mastercard. I'm interested in speaking
with -- or receiving comments from -- credit card and personal
finance professionals about the benefits and any potential
drawbacks to this service.

I'm interested in talking about the convenience offered by Click
to Pay and the security behind it. Why should consumers trust
this, and why should they feel comfortable clicking a button to
pay instead of entering their credit card information for each
transaction?

I'd also like to talk about any potential dangers of this
system, mostly the fact that the one-click nature of the system
makes it so easy for consumers with bad spending habits to
overspend.

Please send me an email at danrafter@sbcglobal.net if you are
available for a phone interview of 20 to 30 minutes. You can
also send comments to me if you'd prefer.

Thank you for considering my request, and I look forward to
hearing from you.

Sincerely, Dan Rafter

I'm looking for folks to interview for my new YouTube Channel.
If you have advice that can be summarized in 5-10 bulleted
phrases or ideas that can be discussed during a Zoom interview,
I'd love to hear from you.

This would work best for someone who has a product, service,
company, or blog that they can tie the advice to, but first and
foremost, it needs to be information that is useful, not just
advertising. I'm looking to record several interviews over the

planning shows that coincide with special dates or seasons. For
example, World Storytelling Day is March 20th, what a great time
to tell great stories or to teach others how to tell a great
story. The Week of the Young Child is in April ... a child
development expert could give parenting advice. We are coming
up on tax season, a tax professional might have a top 7
deductions people usually forget.

Send me your pitch.

Include: (1) Full Name (2) Company/Service/Website Information
(3) General Subject Matter for the Interview - If you know which
show you are interested in appearing on, name the show (look to
website for more information on shows
http://www.owensburton.com/pitch.html) (4) What event it might
tie into. It could be several: personal (e.g. business
anniversary) or national. (5) Your bulleted list

If we mutually decide to work together, I will eventually need
an electronic photo of you (headshot preferably) and a jpeg (or
similar) of your logo if applicable, please DON'T SEND any files
now, I'm just giving you a heads up. Thank you.
