The U.S. labor market experienced a minor setback in August, with unemployment reaching 4.3% and only 22,000 nonfarm jobs added. This comes as a slight contrast to the country's ongoing economic growth.

In the world of sports, the NFL's 10 highest-paid players are set to bring in a staggering $571 million this season. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes, a player for the Kansas City Chiefs, claims the No. 1 spot on the earnings list with an estimated $78 million. Micah Parsons, a defensive end, follows closely behind, due to make an estimated $48.2 million during the 2025 league year. Travis Kelce, another Kansas City Chiefs player, is the only other non-quarterback to make the list, coming in at No. 8 with an estimated $47.3 million.

The pay spike in the NFL is not confined to quarterbacks. This offseason featured record contracts at 10 positions as the NFL continues to set new revenue highs.

In the literary world, the release of the Wuthering Heights film adaptation's trailer has spurred increased sales of the classic novel on Amazon. The 1997 Wordsworth Classics edition of the book saw a 504% increase in sales between Thursday and Friday.

Meanwhile, the tech sector has been in the spotlight due to a $1.5 billion settlement by AI giant Anthropic. The company has settled a lawsuit from a group of authors and publishers who accused the company of pirating literary works.

On a different note, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson have criticized President Donald Trump for suggesting his administration would go to "WAR" with Chicago and deploy National Guard troops.

In the realm of consumer rights, the Trump Administration has axed a proposed Biden-era policy that would have mandated refunds to customers impacted by flight disruptions. Conversely, for delays due to factors within an airline's control, the rule would have mandated that airlines pay passengers up to $300 for domestic delays of three to six hours, and up to $775 for flight delays lasting nine hours or more.

If you're feeling disheartened by rejections amid your job search, tailoring your resume can help land interviews. For instance, at least 14 billionaires earned early paychecks at fast-food chains, including Binance founder CZ and Raising Cane's CEO Todd Graves.
