Here are the top 3 stories today in Reno:

  1. Dr. Ali Nairizi is a pain specialist that is dedicated to helping people find pain treatment options without having to use opioids. Even though he is very busy working for Reno Tahoe Pain Associates and United Pain Urgent Care, he was able to host a seminar yesterday to cover the topic. Dr. Nairizi wants everyone to know that there are ways to treat chronic and acute pain without the use of opioids. (KOLO)
  2. The pandemic has proven that healthcare workers are some the hardest working people in the world, and it is not an easy profession. In fact, many people had to exit the field due to high demands, threats, and harassment. However, Gayle Erickson went the opposite way and left her corporate job to help the people around her. (KUNR Public Radio)
  3. A private company based out of Los Angeles has just announced that they have acquired The Save Mart Companies. The company's chains have been owned by Piccinini Family since the 1950s. Since then, a lot has changed, and it is good to hear that Kingswood Capital Management is going to be dedicated to making The Save Mart Companies even better. (Fox Reno)

From our sponsor:

Where should you invest as a Reno resident with a $149,000 nest egg? Thanks to a change in the legal code, there's a new investment Reno residents need to know about. In fact, Bloomberg asked experts where they'd invest $100,000 right now and many of them chose it.

This may surprise you, but it's fine art.

Growing your nest egg with art isn't new. Wealthy families like the Rockefellers have done it for centuries.

Here's why:

  • Low correlation to stocks according to Citi
  • Contemporary art historically returns 23.2% when inflation is >3%
  • Contemporary art prices outpaced the S&P 500 by 164% (1995-2021)

Translation: Art could be one of the best investments for uncertain times.

Luckily for you, we found Masterworks. This revolutionary platform lets you invest in art by Warhol, Monet, Picasso without spending millions.

The best part? Anyone from your area can skip their waitlist*.
