When a big inheritance lands in your lap, your instincts may tell you to start making "smart" moves—buy the house, hire the advisor, set up the portfolio. But <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45485339/mom-asks-suze-orman-did-we-create-a-monster-23-year-old-daughter-has-250k-saved-but-refuses-to-pay-for-dates-or-family-outings">Suze Orman</a> has one word for you: don't.
On an April episode of her "Women &amp; Money" podcast, Orman gave a sobering but powerful message to anyone facing the emotional chaos that often comes with a sudden windfall. The <a href="https://omny.fm/shows/suze-ormans-women-and-money/suze-school-revisiting-recognizing-financial-advisor-abuse?in_playlist=podcast">episode focused on a 57-year-old woman</a> who had just lost her husband and was trying to figure out what to do with a $7 million life insurance payout.
"She was left to the tune of $7 million," Orman said. "Now this woman has never dealt with $7 million in her life."

</ul>
And Orman's advice?
"You are to do nothing other than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44715539/suze-orman-says-when-sentiment-is-this-fearful-its-not-the-time-to-sell-but-if-youll-need-the-money-in-5-years-it-shouldnt-be-in-the-market">keep this money safe and sound</a>," she said. "Except obviously pay off debts and things like that, but nothing besides that. For at least six months, one year or two years after suffering the loss of a loved one."
Orman's reasoning is deeply rooted in psychology—and experience.
"You may feel like you are making the right decisions and that you know what you're doing when it comes to money that you've never handled before, but I'm here to tell you," she said. "You are not in your body. You will get taken advantage of possibly, but you will not be doing that which you should be doing with this money."
The woman, a mother of four—ages 21, 18, 16, and 12—was three months into grieving her husband when she initially reached out to Orman. At that time, Orman carefully guided her to place the full $7 million into a treasury money market account through a reputable brokerage firm, where she'd earn around 4%–5% interest with minimal risk. The instructions were crystal clear:
"You are to do nothing. Do not touch this money. You are just going to let it sit there," she said.&nbsp;
Trending: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.
But that didn't last.
Months later, a financial advisor from that very brokerage firm contacted her and convinced her to split up $2.4 million into two annuities—$1.5 million in one, $900,000 in another—and planned to invest the rest in stocks and bonds, leaving only $1.5 million in the money market account.
Orman was livid.
"Nothing upsets me more than that," she said, referring to advisors who act in their own financial interest before a grieving client is emotionally ready. "We all deserve to know what to do with money, to be taken care of, to not have some financial adviser do things with people's money when they're not ready to do it just 'cause this person may make more money or his firm may make more money."
So what should you do if you suddenly come into a large sum of money, whether from an inheritance, lottery win, or sale of a business?

According to Orman: slow down. Park the money somewhere safe, like a treasury-backed money market account. Let the dust settle before you make life-altering decisions—especially ones driven by outside "experts" with a commission in the balance.
Financial planners often say one of the worst times to make big decisions is after a major emotional event. Behavioral economists call it "decision fatigue." Grief only amplifies it.
That said, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44616088/dave-ramsey-caller-tells-him-following-advice-to-pay-off-house-didnt-work-because-now-she-has-no-credit-but-he-says-that-was-the-point">there's a valid counterpoint</a>: waiting too long to make any moves can expose your money to inflation risk, market shifts, or—ironically—bad advice from friends and family. The key is balance. Take Orman's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45498403/what-is-your-emotional-money-score-suze-ormans-20-questions-to-determine-if-you-are-in-control-of-your-money-or-if-its-in-control-of-you">advice as a mandate</a> to protect your money until you're mentally ready, not a reason to ignore it completely.
Because <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">$7 million is a lot</a>. But peace of mind? That's priceless.

57-Year-Old Inherits $7 Million After Husband's Unexpected Death — Suze Orman Tells Her 'Do Not Touch This Money' For At Least 6 Months

On Monday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made significant trades, notably offloading shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>).
The Tesla Trade: Ark Invest sold 1,594 shares of the Elon Musk-led company. For the day, Tesla shares closed at $342.69, making the trade, carried out through the ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>), worth $546,247.
This move comes as Tesla faces <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45729188/tesla-stock-is-trading-lower-today-whats-going-on">stiff competition</a> from Chinese electric vehicle rivals, which reported strong delivery numbers for May. Tesla&#8217;s competitors, including BYD, Li Auto, Nio, and Xpeng, saw sales growth in China last month, putting pressure on Tesla&#8217;s market position.
The PLTR Trade: Ark Invest also offloaded 17,467 shares of Palantir Technologies. This decision comes amidst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45715850/trump-administration-silently-employs-palantir-to-gather-personal-data-of-each-american-raising-privacy-data-misuse-concerns-report">concerns over privacy</a> and potential misuse of personal data. As reported by Benzinga, the Trump administration has been discreetly working with Palantir to gather personal data of American citizens from various federal agencies. Despite these concerns, former hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/06/45716400/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-sees-10-trillion-potential-in-palantir-but-cautions-one-bad-quarter-and-its-down-50">expressed bullish views</a> on Palantir but cautioned investors about the stock's inherent volatility in an interview.
The Ark trade was made through ARKK. On Tuesday, Palantir stock closed at $132.04. The sale of shares was worth $2.31 million.

Cathie Wood Sells Tesla Stock As Chinese Rivals Gain Ground — Ark Dumps Palantir Amid Privacy Concerns

Investor Kevin O'Leary has dismissed France's shorter workweek as "the stupidest idea I have ever heard." However, several other leaders and tech executives believe artificial intelligence could soon make it a reality.
What Happened: O'Leary, known as "Mr. Wonderful" on Shark Tank, took to X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday and criticized the push for a reduced workweek.&nbsp;
" I think we should let the French go to a two-day work week and then kick their a&#x2A;&#x2A; internationally," said O'Leary.
He then said that the concept of the work week already doesn't work anymore because of the digital economy. "I look at my staff, 40% of them work remotely all around the world."

"It&#8217;s project-based. Can you get it done by the 15th of June? Yes, I can. I don&#8217;t care when you do it, f- four-day, three-day, five-day," he concluded.

Why It's Important: Earlier, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37681980/bernie-sanders-is-back-with-his-4-day-workweek-plan-with-no-pay-cut-not-a-radical-idea">introduced legislation</a> advocating for a four-day, 32-hour workweek in the U.S., without any cuts to workers&#8217; pay.
He said that although American workers are now more than 400% more productive than they were in the 1940s, many are putting in longer hours while earning comparatively less.
Billionaire Steve Cohen and Zoom CEO Eric Yuan previously expressed their belief that AI will enable shorter weeks by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/41041598/zoom-ceo-eric-yuan-predicts-4-day-work-weeks-enabled-by-ai-within-20-years-echoing-views-of-bill-gat">boosting productivity</a>.

Kevin O'Leary Blasts Four-Day Workweek As The 'Stupidest Idea Ever' — Here's Why Mr Wonderful Thinks The Concept Doesn't Work In The Era Of Remote Work

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) tore into Donald Trump&#8217;s alleged &#8220;side deal&#8221; with Iran on Monday and demanded that the president make public any such agreements with Tehran.
What Happened: Schumer took to X to criticise Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff. 
He said, &#8220;If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it.&#8221; TACO refers to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45665026/trump-always-chickens-out-president-confronted-with-taco-trade-thesis-by-reporteras-markets-bet-hell-blink-again">Wall Street trade</a> premised on the idea that the president always backs away from his earlier aggressive stances. It&#8217;s an acronym for &#8220;Trump Always Chickens Out.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

&mdash; Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) <a href="https://twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/1929676991789203528?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 2, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Schumer said Trump was &#8220;all over the lot&#8221; when it came to negotiating with Iran, in a video he attached to his post. &#8220;One day, he sounds tough, the next day he&#8217;s backing off.&#8221; The Senate minority leader said that it&#8217;s become public that Rubio and Witkoff are negotiating a &#8220;secret side deal&#8221; with Iran.
&#8220;They&#8217;re gonna sound tough in public and then and then have a side deal that lets Iran get away with everything? That&#8217;s outrageous,&#8221; said Schumer. He then went on to demand that such a deal be put before the American people and the Congress.
The United States has reportedly put forward a nuclear proposal to Iran, permitting limited low-level uranium enrichment within the country. This move marks a departure from previous public statements by U.S. officials advocating for zero enrichment.
The proposal, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/06/02/iran-nuclear-deal-proposal-enrich-uranium">reported</a> by Axios, was delivered by Witkoff. It includes preliminary ideas for the upcoming round of nuclear talks. The plan suggests that Iran dismantle key nuclear infrastructure and cease new centrifuge research. Additionally, it proposes a regional enrichment consortium, limiting Iran&#8217;s domestic capabilities to civilian purposes.
This proposal has raised concerns among U.S. allies, particularly Israel and Republican senators, who have consistently advocated for zero enrichment and the complete dismantlement of Iran&#8217;s nuclear program. Axios reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been pushing for a stringent deal and cautioned against actions that might jeopardize negotiations.

Meanwhile, Trump took to social media to deny that the administration would allow Iran to enrich Uranium.

Why It Matters: In April 2025, Iran signaled its willingness to engage in high-level nuclear discussions with the U.S., while warning against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44758747/iran-signals-openness-to-nuclear-talks-with-us-warns-against-trumps-aggressive-theatrics">Trump&#8217;s aggressive theatrics</a>.
The latest proposal comes after a series of diplomatic gestures and tensions between the U.S. and Iran. In May 2025, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45395894/trump-makes-peace-gesture-at-iran-amid-middle-east-optimism-willing-to-end-past-conflicts-and-forge-new-partnerships">extended an olive branch</a> to Iran, expressing hope for improved relations in the Middle East. This was part of a broader strategy to be perceived as a global peacemaker.
Trump had earlier reinstated his &#8220;maximum pressure&#8221; sanctions campaign on Iran, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43480859/trump-confirms-maximum-economic-pressure-on-iran-calls-chinas-tariff-retaliation-fine">aiming to increase economic and political pressure</a> on Tehran. This dual approach of pressure and diplomacy has characterized the U.S.-Iran relations under Trump&#8217;s administration.

Chuck Schumer Says If 'TACO Trump' Is Already Folding On Iran The American People Need To Know: 'One Day, He Sounds Tough, The Next Day He's Backing Off'

Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/news/press-releases/2025/05/27/salesforce-signs-definitive-agreement-to-acquire-informatica/">announced</a> Tuesday that it will acquire Informatica (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INFA#NYSE">INFA</a>) in a cash deal valued at approximately $8 billion. The acquisition underscores Salesforce's intent to bolster its artificial intelligence capabilities by integrating a core player in enterprise data management.
Under the terms of the deal, holders of Informatica's Class A and Class B-1 common stock will receive $25 per share — an 11% premium over the company's closing price of $22.55 on Friday, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/27/salesforce-acquires-informatica-for-8-billion/">TechCrunch</a> reported.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Informatica: &#8216;The Plumbing For AI&#8217;</h2>
Informatica CEO Amit Walia framed the acquisition as a shared effort to bring data and AI to life, describing Informatica in a statement as the plumbing for AI and data. Informatica's Intelligent Data Management Cloud platform helps enterprises connect, manage, and unify complex data systems across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
"Joining forces with Salesforce represents a significant leap forward in our journey," Walia said in a statement on Tuesday. "We have a shared vision for how we can help organizations harness the full value of their data in the AI era."
Steve Fisher, Salesforce's chief technology officer, said that the truly autonomous, trustworthy AI agents need the most comprehensive understanding of their data, adding that Informatica's metadata and catalog tools will complement Salesforce's agentic AI platform, Agentforce.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Rationale: Building A Foundation For Agentic AI</h2>
The acquisition builds on Salesforce's previous investments in data and AI. It follows the company's multibillion-dollar acquisitions of Slack at $27.7 billion in 2021, Tableau at $15.7 billion in 2019, and MuleSoft at $6.5 billion in 2018.&nbsp;
According to Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, Informatica will be integrated alongside Data Cloud, Tableau, and MuleSoft to enable autonomous agents to deliver smarter, safer, and more scalable outcomes for every company.
Salesforce&#8217;s operating and financial chief Robin Washington said the company will move quickly to leverage Informatica's capabilities across public sector, life sciences, healthcare, and financial services verticals, where governed, trustworthy data is critical.
The deal is expected to close in early fiscal 2027, pending regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Buyout To Buy-In</h2>
Informatica was taken private in 2015 through a $5.3 billion deal led by private-equity firm Permira and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Morgan Stanley Stock In The Last 10 Years

Warren Buffett's investment in Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) is a master class in patient, long-term investing — and it pays him handsomely <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42115069/warren-buffett-is-set-to-collect-776-million-in-coca-cola-dividends-but-daughter-says-his-wife-buys-him-the-soda-on-sale">every single day.</a>
What To Know: In 1988, Buffett began buying shares of Coca-Cola in the aftermath of the 1987 stock market crash and ultimately amassed 400 million shares through his company Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>). 
The company's stake in Coca-Cola represents more than 10% of Berkshire&#8217;s portfolio and about 8% of Coca-Cola's outstanding shares.

Fast forward to 2025, and those 400 million shares are worth over $25 billion — but the real magic is in the dividends. 
Coca-Cola pays shareholders a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/KO/dividends"> quarterly dividend</a> of 51 cents per share, amounting to $2.04 per share annually. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is set to earn $816 million in Coca-Cola dividends in 2025.&nbsp;
Broken down, that's about $2.23 million flowing into Berkshire's coffers every single day, or nearly $93,000 per hour.&nbsp;
What Else: Buffett is well known for drinking Coke and has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43341020/warren-buffett-would-give-up-a-year-of-his-life-to-eat-whatever-he-wants-his-daughter-confirms-he-still-gets-daily-mcdonalds-breakfast-at-94">said he drinks</a> about five cans a day, even at age 94.&nbsp;
In 2015, he joked to Fortune, &#8220;I&#8217;m one-quarter Coca-Cola,&#8221; admitting that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40971688/warren-buffett-owns-28b-in-coca-cola-stock-and-drinks-5-cans-a-day-i-dont-think-the-prostate-can">the drink accounts</a> for 25% of his daily calorie intake.&nbsp;
As he famously quipped, "If you aren't willing to own a stock for 10 years, don't even think about owning it for 10 minutes." 
For Buffett, Coca-Cola has been a sweet investment — one that pays, quite literally, every single day.

When it comes to personal finance, Kevin O&#8217;Leary isn&#8217;t sugarcoating anything. The &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; investor is once again calling out high-interest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44889438/survey-unveils-american-misconceptions-about-credit-card-debt-management">credit card debt</a> and urging people to make getting out of it a top priority.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Debt Takes You Down</h2>
&#8220;The reason I own all the credit card companies is I&#8217;m getting paid 23% by people that have credit balances on their cards,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary said in a recent <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1927356996786786449">post on X</a>. &#8220;It&#8217;s crazy that you would pay interest of 23% on what you owe the credit card company.&#8221;

</ul>
In an interview clip shared with the post, he went further: &#8220;You should pay off your balance there and then retire all your debt and start saving, even if you&#8217;re 30 or 40. You&#8217;d be amazed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45490762/charlie-munger-once-said-the-first-rule-of-compounding-is-to-never-interrupt-it-unnecessarily-now-his-wisdom-rings-true-as-the-sp-500-surges-220-over-10-years">power of compounding interest</a> over even a decade. It&#8217;s never too late. The key to life is stay out of debt.&#8221;
O&#8217;Leary also said credit card debt &#8220;comes out of nowhere and bites you&#8221; when you&#8217;re not ready. He called it &#8220;the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43424608/21-interest-rates-youve-got-to-be-kidding-me-kevin-oleary-slams-credit-card-debt-as-the-real-silent-killer-in-america">real silent killer</a> in America&#8221; in a separate <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1883537883501310043">interview</a> with WNYW-TV&#8217;s &#8220;Good Day New York,&#8221; emphasizing that most people don&#8217;t even realize how much they&#8217;re overspending.
His advice is to keep it simple: &#8220;Take a piece of paper, you don't need a computer, write down the money you made in 90 days and how much you spent during that same period.&#8221;
Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/wideradvisor-retirement-planning">Schedule your free call with a financial advisor to start your financial journey – no cost, no obligation</a>.&nbsp;
The reality for many, he says, is that they&#8217;re spending more than they earn. And what makes up the gap? Credit cards, with interest rates now averaging around 21%.
U.S. consumers hold $1.18 trillion in credit card debt in Q1, according to the <a href="https://www.newyorkfed.org/microeconomics/hhdc">Federal Reserve Bank of New York</a>. Balances fell by $29 billion from the previous quarter.
Billionaire Mark Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39092288/if-you-use-your-credit-card-you-do-not-want-to-be-rich-warns-mark-cuban-on-the-dave-ramsey-show">shares the same view</a>. &#8220;If you use your credit cards, you do not want to be rich,&#8221; he told Dave Ramsey on &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA0IUaoXSew">The Ramsey Show</a>.&#8221; Cuban suggests paying them off and getting rid of them completely. &#8220;If you pay that down you just earned 15 or 20%,&#8221; he said. Ramsey added that 75% of wealthy people make staying out of debt a top priority.&nbsp;
O&#8217;Leary insists it comes down to buying only what you can truly afford. He used his watches as an example: &#8220;This is a priceless Rolex&#8230; probably worth $150,000. Here&#8217;s a $300 Timex. Why do I wear them both? Two different time zones, but also this is a beautiful dial for 300 bucks.&#8221;

Electric vehicle leader Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is continuing to see large declines in deliveries in many territories around the world, with data from Europe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/05/45616006/teslas-european-woes-see-no-end-april-sales-crash-49-as-rivals-race-ahead-in-ev-market">looking particularly bad.</a>
What Happened: Items such as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">tariffs and macroeconomic concerns</a> could hurt Tesla's delivery figures in the U.S. and other parts of the world.
Europe might be the market Tesla is struggling with the most, which comes as other competitors are outperforming it. The Elon Musk-led company also suffered brand damage in 2024 and 2025 due to the CEO's political involvement in several countries&#8217; <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/elon-musk/elon-musk-boosting-far-right-politics-globe-rcna189505">elections</a>.
A new report shared by <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/06/02/tesla-sales-crash-france-even-with-new-model-y/">Electrek </a>said Tesla's deliveries in France were 721 units in May. This figure was down 67% year-over-year and is the lowest for the country in over three years.
The overall automotive market was down 12% year-over-year for France in May, but companies outside of Tesla saw much better results.
The report on the struggles in France comes as a recent ACEA report said Tesla's European sales were down 49% year-over-year in April.

Why It's Important: Musk insisted that Tesla has "no demand problem" and everything is going fine. Recent delivery reports for regions around the world suggest otherwise and could put second-quarter deliveries in the spotlight.
Tesla placed a portion of its weaker sales blame on the Model Y changeover. May sales for Tesla in France were lower than any month in the first quarter, when the Model Y changeover was happening. With the changeover now complete in some parts of the world, weak second-quarter data shows that this may not have been the reason for weaker demand.
While France represents only one market for Tesla, the May data is bad and could be another negative for second-quarter deliveries and financial results.
TSLA Price Action: Tesla stock closed Monday down 1.09% to $342.69 versus a 52-week trading range of $167.42 to $488.54. Tesla stock is down around 15% year-to-date in 2025.
