Wow. Yale’s making some big moves when it comes to their $32 billion endowment that famed investor David Swenson has been in charge of since 1985. What happened? Swensen told their money managers (all 70 of them) that Yale will be tracking their yearly progress at diversifying the investment staff. No improvement? No more cash […]
Or rather, a storefront. Apparently, business owners aren’t too hip on having a brick-and-mortar, physical store anymore. Bluehost, the website and marketing provider, just released a survey that showed most small business owners have fully transitioned online or created e-commerce stores. Almost half of all business owners said brick-and-mortar is out (aka they don’t need […]
The youngest generation, soon to become fully independent adults, have a lot of expectations to meet up to. After all of the jokes and trends of millennials struggling to make a life for themselves, you have to wonder if Generation Z (ages 13-17) will be able to beat the stereotypes and restore the vision of […]
And Instagram, and Google, and Twitter! It’s a party. We all know China’s pretty strict on the websites and apps their citizens can use while in Chinese territory, which is why normally they don’t have access to our favorite social and search platforms. An app called Tuber launched on Friday and gave Chinese internet users […]
It’s really a sight to behold… we know for a FACT that a second round of stimulus funding isn’t happening until after the November 3rd presidential election. And there is increasing uncertainty around contesting the election results. But apparently this doesn’t faze the stock market at all, which is projected to continue rallying. At least […]
Once again, Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook CEO), Sundar Pichai (Alphabet CEO), and Jack Dorsey (Twitter CEO) are headed for Congress’s confessional to voluntarily testify on October 28th over social media regulation. Don’t think they’re being sweet and innocent by voluntarily testifying, either. Congress agreed last Thursday to go through the subpoena process, so the CEOs are […]
Look, here’s the deal: Freelancing is here to stay, at least in the US. With nearly 60 million of freelancers in the workforce already, making up 39% of the total American labor market, more people are ditching the 9-to-5 climb-the-corporate-ladder path in exchange for something that gives them more control of their time. But outside […]
The state of Florida was one of the first ones to relax COVID-19 lockdown restrictions in the early stages of the pandemic. And despite taking an immense amount of heat from politicians and health experts, they managed to do well for themselves. And they’re not buying into the “fear p*rn” of a possible second COVID-19 […]
I thought I would feature yet another shining example of a couple who retired in their 30s using nothing more than simple investment principles and an early start to life. Justin McCurry started investing at the age of 24 alongside his wife, who is a financial analyst. Combined, they were making $90,000 and gradually worked […]
I know this headline sounds like an incredibly bold claim – I thought so too. But then I read a recent piece on MarketWatch that makes a rather convincing case for it. It’s not a set of tech companies to add to your stock portfolio, nor does it involve striking gold with starting and scaling […]
