Manage episode 435649719 series 2566341
For many old hotels and motels, the most reliable guests may be ghosts in the attic. Unfortunately, they’re not paying the nightly rate. Worse, many hotels with empty rooms are surrounded by communities suffering housing shortages. Instead of closing their doors, they’re being converted into transitional housing for low-income people with the help of nonprofit organizations. In this episode, we visit one. Plus, retirees feel financially stable while working Americans don’t, Fortune 500 firms fear AI and rural parents struggle with living in “child care deserts.”
