At the age of 28, most professionals are in the midst of getting well adjusted to their careers. Still young enough to vividly remember what it was like to be an industry rookie, a not-quite-thirtysomething-yet generally has a lot to look forward to. It’s great to be ambitious, of course.

Puerto Rico Couple Arrested For Committing Health Care Fraud

Puerto Rico is a beautiful Caribbean island. However, it can be a bit tricky to define exactly what land the island represents.
