I am not sure who bought the Elite Drafters account when the original guy sold it a few months ago, but… a short story in 3 pictures

Counterargument: If you invest the difference in the stock market so that monthly cash outflows are equal in both scenarios, renting results in a significantly higher net worth.

Anyone regret buying a house and just go back to renting?



Based on 2025 BBMVI data: 95.27% of entries were made with NO rankings set. 4.73% of entries were made with rankings set. Don’t have data on tools but feel very comfortable saying it’s less than 4.73%.


If you had to guess: 1. What % of BBM entries are drafted using rankings and draft tools? 2. What % of BBM entries are drafted using just rankings? 3. What % of BBM entries are drafting using no rankings and no draft tools? Is it like 1. 10%? 2. 30%? 3. 60%? Am I way off?

Jane Street made ~$40B in 2025 with 3,500 employees, a ~2x from the year before. At ~65-70% profit margin, that's $8M profit / employee, the highest for a 1000+ ppl company. High-frequency trading continues to be the most efficient money making engine. I want to share an old story about my Jane Street interview in 2014. Jane Street was known for hiring a lot of math, physics and CS olympiad winners from top universities and putting them through many rounds - including, for trading roles, a gauntlet of mental math. It was my 6th interview and my final round and I recall being asked "What is the next day after today in DD/MM/YYYY where all the digits are unique?" They'd toy with you and say "You can use a pencil and paper, if you want" but you knew that was an instant no. Painstakingly and as quickly as I could, I came to an answer. "How confident are you that this is correct on a 0-1 probability scale?" the interviewer said. "0.95", I blurted out, not fully knowing how to answer that. "Are you sure?" After thinking harder for a few more seconds, I realized I could've flipped the digits around to get a closer date. I gave the interviewer my answer. It was correct. "0.95 huh?" he chuckled. That's when I knew I failed. Note: fwiw, other companies that come close in efficiency are - Tether ($90M+ profit/emp) - Hyperliquid ($80M+ profit/emp) and on revenue: - Valve ($50M/emp) - OnlyFans ($37M/emp) - Craigslist ($14M/emp) - Anthropic ($12M/emp, run rate) - OpenAI ($8M/emp, run rate) For comparison, Nvidia is very efficient at scale and is $4.4M/emp.




Counterargument: If you rent a home for $3,000 and rent increases only 1.25% a year, at the end of 30 years you’ll have paid over $1,300,000 in rent and won’t own a home.

Cincy Dexy: The #Giants are trading DT Dexter Lawrence to the #Bengals in exchange for the 10th overall pick in next week’s NFL Draft, sources tell me and @RapSheet. Lawrence gets a new deal from his new team while picks 5 and 10 now run through East Rutherford.
