What President Trump’s Immigration Policy Means for the Future of Foreign Workers

Image
The Trump administration recently announced a controversial new policy imposing a $100,000 fee on H-1B visa applicants, marking a significant shift in U.S. immigration enforcement. This move is part of an aggressive crackdown on immigration policies aimed at protecting American jobs but carries far-reaching implications for foreign workers, employers, and the technology sector. The H-1B visa program has long been a vital pathway for highly skilled foreign professionals, especially in fields like technology, engineering, and healthcare, to live and work in the United States.

This measure is expected to discourage many applicants due to the prohibitive cost, fundamentally changing the dynamics of how companies approach international hiring. Critics argue that such a steep fee will hurt U.S. businesses by limiting their ability to recruit skilled professionals. Many tech...

The book makes the case that money involves behavior and mindset in addition to maths. Housel shares insights into the financial world and the psychological biases that influence how we handle money using his experience as a financial writer and analyst. Five sections make up the book, each of which focuses on a different area of investing and personal finance. Housel discusses the value of saving money in the first section.
