One thing I noticed is how little the interviewer spoke, and when he did, how short his questions were. Vonnegut does the majority of the talking while the interviewer just keeps laying down graceful transitions for him to expand upon. I&#x

Buffet has been warning about inflation for two decades. He has said repeatedly over the years that one of the best ways to combat inflation is to buy companies that make their money in foreign currency. This would be a big hedge against do

I've always been super skeptical of this company namely because of the founder (and their wholly unoriginal name). A look into his background reveals no prior engineering accomplishments let alone experience. His Wikipedia page says he

Agree. I'm not a CFA, but I do have a masters degree in finance and have studied it fairly closely the past few years. Investing should be thought of in terms of years, at a minimum. You're thinking about it in terms of decades, w

https://www.stephendibart.com/blog I write about finance, technology and design. Recently, I wrote about my experience as an adjunct cyber teacher. So far, the topics have been fairly wide-ranging. Writing this blog, if not

This is mostly a re-alignment of forces and civilian personnel who are already doing the job (of which there are many, across multiple services). There is actually little additional cost here...I think $2B over 5 years...which is a small po

It’s clear that tesla stories (especially negative ones) = more clicks At the bottom of auto/EV articles, I frequently see a sentence or two soliciting stories from tesla employees specifically. Often times the article isn’t even about

That seems to be the popular opinion (that this is Amazon's fault) but I disagree. Amazon coming to LIC would have been a net benefit for everyone. 25k jobs that pay a minimum wage of $15/hour...who would reject that? Sure they ge
