The long-awaited day has arrived. RTVE’s star signing, David Broncano, will make an appearance this Monday, September 9, in prime time television with his new program ‘La Revuelta’, a format that will maintain the essence of the old ‘Resistencia’ on Movistar Plus+ with its spicy questions but with some new features.

Broncano and his team from ‘La Revuelta’ come to the public with the intention of staying true to their essence, with the casual and roguish tone that has characterized them since their beginnings. As always, in addition to the Galician comedian, the program will be led by other well-known faces such as Ricardo Castella, Jorge Ponce or Grison.

In this sense, the programme is expected to feature personalities of all kinds, from artists from all walks of life to scientists and sportsmen. However, the identity of the programme’s first guest has not been revealed, and the mystery will remain until the programme is broadcast.

The programme, as usual on the Movistar Plus+ pay-TV platform, will be recorded on a delayed basis. Unlike its main competitors ‘El Hormiguero’ or the recent ‘Babylon Show’ by Carlos Latre, it is recorded during the afternoons from Monday to Thursday from 3:00 p.m., as indicated by the production company El Terrat on its website. The programme is then broadcast from 9:40 p.m. on RTVE.

All spectators who wish to attend the programme must be present at the Teatro Príncipe Gran Vía, in the heart of Madrid, from the aforementioned time. The recording is expected to finish at around 7:30 p.m., although it may take longer depending on the day.

The guest desired by Broncano

David Broncano has had the opportunity to interview a host of big names. From one of his idols, one of the most successful tennis players, Roger Federer, to the Williams brothers, Nico and Iñaki, players of Athletic Bilbao. In between, Carlos Alcaraz, Rafa Nadal, Ana Peleteiro, the MasterChef jury, Luis Zahera and Javier Gutiérrez and many more have also passed through. But, there is one person he would love to have sit on his sofa.

“I want Roger Federer to come back, but Mariano Rajoy has to come. I would like him to come to talk about the registry because I think he is still the property registrar. So, I would like him to come because it is a state-owned course and I would like to know how it works,” the presenter of La Revuelta revealed to RTVE Play.

Pedro Sánchez remains as Spanish prime minister after a judicial investigation into his wife

Pedro Sánchez remains as Spanish prime minister after a judicial investigation into his wife

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Spain

He kept Spain in suspense for days, but now Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has announced that he does not want to give in to the persistent attacks from the opposition. “I stay.”

For a moment, the scenario of a dismissal seemed more likely, when La Vanguardia leaked that Pedro Sánchez was visiting the king and that he was already aware of his decision. That is why the announcement came as a surprise a little later: Sánchez remains as Prime Minister of Spain.

In a long run-up, he indicated in a speech that he cannot simply say “basta” after continuous attacks. That he cannot bow to all those forces that poison politics in his country. In a “letter to the population” on X, the Prime Minister announced last Wednesday that he would consider his fate for five days. “I wonder whether it is all still worth it. Honestly: I don’t know.”

Drop

A judge’s decision to open an investigation into his wife, Begoña Gómez, to determine whether she had abused her role as “wife of” in business negotiations was the final straw for Sánchez in what he has long perceived as a witch hunt. feels. He denounced the “mud machine” and stated in the letter that “this unprecedented attack is so serious and so brutal that I need time to stop and think.”

Striking: there was no official stamp on the letter. His entourage was only informed of his decision when the letter appeared on X. In recent days, the party leadership also remained in the dark about what the prime minister would decide. Or as a top Social Democratic figure said off the record in El País: “It’s like reading tarot cards.” In recent days, thousands of supporters of the social democratic PSOE took to the streets of Madrid to express their support for Sánchez.

There was also great pressure from his party not to throw in the towel. In doing so, he would only reward the right and the radical right for their continued attacks. Or as the government’s number two, Finance Minister María Jesús Montero, said: “Of course it pays for the good guys to win.”

Opposition

However, business as usual is not an option, the Prime Minister will now have to explain very thoroughly why he pressed the pause button. The opposition will remain implacable. “Caprichoso” (“unaccountable”), narcissist, master of political games, the accusations are ready. Alberto Núñez Feijóo, chairman of the conservative Popular Party (PP), declared on Sunday that whatever Sánchez decided, he was already the politician “of the past”.

Dutch former prime minister left his life hand in hand with his wife: is duo euthanasia also possible in Belgium?

Dutch former prime minister left his life hand in hand with his wife: is duo euthanasia also possible in Belgium?

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com
written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

It is a poignantly romantic image: after a lifetime together, an older couple knocks together at the gate of heaven. It is what the Catholic Dutch former Prime Minister Dries van Agt and his wife Eugenie Krekelberg did last Monday. The couple, both 93 years old, held hands and exchanged the temporary for the eternal.

In the Netherlands, such a joint euthanasia is called duo-euthanasia. It also occurs in our country. In October last year, a couple of 87 and 90 in Ypres were euthanized on the same day. Two years earlier, the De Crée-Roex couple, a doctor and an artist, made the same decision.

“It is very moving,” says Luc Proot, an oncological surgeon who specializes in euthanasia and is a member of the Euthanasia Committee. He himself has already supervised duo euthanasia three times. “It is usually very emotional because the couple is very closely connected until the last moment. They also symbolically join hands and want to die at the same time. It is not obvious for a doctor, and it also keeps you busy afterwards. That is why we always do this with two doctors.”

1 When can a couple receive euthanasia together?

The two partners must each separately qualify for euthanasia and therefore meet the conditions set out in the law. This means that they must be mentally competent, they must suffer from a serious and incurable condition and the suffering must be ‘unbearable and unbearable’. “Both files are examined separately,” says Proot. The doctors must of course agree to have the euthanasia take place at the same time.

2 Does the unbearable prospect of living without a partner count as an argument?

Euthanasia is possible in our country not only because of physical suffering, but also because of psychological suffering. Can the prospect of having to continue living without your partner serve as an argument for this? “We sometimes receive requests where one person in the couple is seriously ill, and the other person states that he or she cannot continue living without his or her partner,” says Proot. “If that second person does not meet the conditions of the law, we cannot go there. Then we will propose to perform euthanasia on the first partner first, and then wait at least 3 or 6 months to judge whether the remaining partner can get over the loss.”

3 Does it often happen that a couple is euthanized together?

In 2022, 2,966 people in our country died due to euthanasia. But no records are kept of whether people receive euthanasia together. “The registration is done anonymously. There are no names on the documents and therefore no relationships. So we only know if the doctor indicates that it happened together,” says Proot. “But it is exceptional. I don’t think it happens more than once or twice a year.”

In the Netherlands, statistics are kept on duo euthanasia. In 2022, 29 couples were simultaneously granted euthanasia.

4 Is it also possible in other countries?

“In other countries it is often more complicated, or the euthanasia legislation stipulates that only terminal patients are eligible,” says Proot. “That doesn’t mean they are dying, but it does mean they are expected to die in the coming weeks or months. In Belgium it is also permitted for non-terminal patients, who could therefore live longer, but do meet the conditions.”

5 Do the partners really die together?

Partners who choose euthanasia together often really want to die at the same time. But can the doctors guarantee that? “It requires experience,” says Proot. “First, a sleeping pill is administered so that they sleep well. Then two doctors simultaneously administer the medication that causes the patient to die. That happens quickly: the patient dies within two to three minutes.”

6 Is it as romantic as it seems?

“Is it romantic? I’ve never thought about it that way,” says Proot. “You only do that if you like each other and can no longer live without each other. After all, sometimes one of the two could hold out a little longer, and yet they decide that the time has come to end it.”

But accompanying doctors must be extra vigilant when requesting joint euthanasia. “I am aware of a case of a man with severe lung disease and a woman with dementia,” says Proot. “During the investigation, the impression arose that the woman was being put under pressure by the man. It was then decided not to have the euthanasia take place together. The woman ultimately did not have it carried out.”

Duo euthanasia does not only happen to couples. “There is also a case of two brothers who suffered from Huntington’s disease, a dementia-like disease. They both chose euthanasia, and they got it together.”

Should I Pay Off My Mortgages with My Retirement Funds: Expert Advice for Retirees

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com
written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

My wife and I are both retired. Right now we have an IRA worth over $800,000, which is intact, and stocks worth $600,000. We receive pensions and Social Security, which amount to about $9,000 a month, but we have two mortgages that are not being paid off. Our primary mortgage has $42,000 remaining with an interest rate of 2.5%, but the second mortgage is at $160,000 with an interest rate of 8%.

I want to know if I should pay my first and second mortgages by selling stocks. A third of our retirement funds are spent on mortgages alone, and if I add up all of our expenses, almost two-thirds are spent. I am now 70 and was thinking of starting to withdraw from my IRA at 73. Should I wait or touch it now?

Paying off both mortgages would put us in the 22% tax bracket and ultimately increase our Medicare premium.

See: I’m 71 and can’t decide whether to pay off my mortgage or get a cheaper joint annuity. What should I do ?

Dear reader,

You do not have to pay off your mortgage by selling your shares. There are several ways to do this.

One mortgage, let alone two, can be a source of anxiety for retirees, as many are on a fixed income and have a limited amount of money available for the future. You don’t want to deplete your savings too quickly because you’ll need them for your entire life, but you also don’t want to have this huge debt hanging over your head.

Your IRA and stocks total $1.4 million. It’s fantastic. These can certainly be a source for you to pay off your mortgages, but before you do, ask yourself what the purpose of this money is. Your retirement income currently seems to cover necessities just fine, but do you plan to rely on your investment funds for things like health care, long-term care, etc. at some point? ?

And will that money also be useful when one spouse dies and part of your current retirement income – like Social Security benefits – disappears?

Before you make a decision, take a financial look at your cash inflows, outflows and expected retirement expenses now and in five, 10, 15 or more years, and think about what it all means for your nest egg. Make sure you have an emergency savings account – enough to cover a year or more of your annual expenses – aside from funds in your IRA, stocks and the account you use to pay your bills.

Now, back to your mortgages. Two popular methods of debt management are the “snowball” and “avalanche” strategies. With the snowball strategy, the goal is to pay off small debts first, then move on to larger ones. In this case, that would mean tackling your primary mortgage and then your secondary mortgage. With the avalanche strategy, you would do the opposite: secondary first, followed by primary. In either case, you’ll make the regular payments for each and then spend additional money on one or the other.

People who would go for the avalanche method in your case would point to the 8% interest rate on your $160,000 mortgage, while others would be happier with the snowball approach because that debt would be crushed faster. Be sure to tell your mortgage lenders that any extra payments you make should go directly toward principal, which will reduce the balance more quickly.

Also see: We have $3 million in real estate, which brings in $70,000 a year. Can I earn the same income investing in stocks and bonds?

Since you have extra money each month from Social Security and pensions, this is a viable option. It would take a little time, but it allows your retirement assets to continue to grow and avoid big tax bills.

If this plan is too slow for you, which is understandable, you can mix up your investments. A large withdrawal will absolutely put you in a higher tax bracket and potentially affect your Medicare costs, as you know, but you can try a smaller withdrawal that will just help you pay off the mortgages faster.

Consult a qualified and trustworthy certified financial planner or certified public accountant who can help you do the math. A professional can suggest some avenues for you to consider and will advise you on the most tax-efficient and reasonable ways to repay your mortgage while still living your life.

It’s essential to look at the big picture when considering withdrawing part of your retirement assets. If you can pay your mortgage and still be able to put food on the table, keep the lights and heat on in the house, and have a little extra cushion to make you feel comfortable, having a Mortgage in retirement isn’t the worst thing in the world.

But you have two, and if you can get that number down to one and then eliminate it completely without harming your future financial health, you’ll feel on top of the world.

Axel (Star Academy): this famous singer will give him a big surprise on the next bonus – Gala

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com
written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Since November 4, the Star Academy has regained its rights on the first channel and the telecrochet still delights viewers. Thirteen new budding artists have joined the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys and have been experiencing intense emotions for three weeks between evaluations, bonuses, courses and life in the community. The young aspiring artists have already seen two of their classmates return home. But this Saturday, November 25, it’s a nice surprise that should mark Axel’s evening.

The candidate will in fact have the surprise of his life upon discovering that he is not going not sing with Pierrebut indeed with Florent Pagny, of which he is a fan. It was on the account of the social network X (formerly Twitter) that the information was revealed this Thursday, November 23. In a short video, we can see Marlène Schaff, the vocal coach, speaking to Pierre and explaining to him: “You know that Star Academy there are always surprises. You’re going to be the keeper of a secret. We announced to you earlier that you were going to do a duet with Axel on ‘Les Murs porters’ by Florent Pagny.” And to add under the questioning gaze of the candidate: “It turns out that Axel is a big fan. Mr. Florent Pagny surprises us by coming to the prime time on Saturday evening! Nobody knows about it. It’s not written on any of the programs, nothing.”

A well-organized surprise for Axel in “Star Ac’”

Pierre’s mission? Play the duo game with Axel during the few days before the prime. And Saturday, when the two young men will present themselves to sing, the interpreter of “Savoir vivre”who recently announced that he was in remission from his cancer, will be alongside Axel. “You’re going to work on this song with Axel all week, as if you were singing it with him on Saturday evening. Axel will discover the deception when singing the song. He’ll turn around to see you, and it won’t be you“, Marlène Schaff told Pierre. The latter then asked if he should go as far as “do the scales” with his sidekick. The vocal coach replied that “oui”what the change would happen “at the last minute” and that in this way it would be a real surprise for Axel.
