We’re approaching 20+ year highs on the 30 year bond yield. I’m sure it’s nothing 😏

The amount of damage Buffett has done to thousands of his fans by making them believe they’re good enough to outperform the market, and share out-of-context anecdotes like this, is immeasurable. But hey, at least they have a stock-picking hobby now that makes them happy.

This is pretty bleak.

Increasing sexual frequency in a regular relationship from once a month to once a week delivers a happiness boost equivalent to the happiness gain from a roughly $50,000 annual salary raise. More sex = monotonically higher happiness: The effect got larger with frequency. Sex 2–3 times a month, weekly, 2–3 times a week, and 4+ times a week all showed positive associations relative to no sex or very rare sex. Having sex at least 4 times a week was linked to a happiness increase roughly half the size of the marriage effect on happiness. The happiness-maximizing number of sexual partners in the previous year was calculated as one. Zero partners or multiple partners both correlated with LOWER happiness than monogamous frequency with a single partner. Money does not buy more sex or more partners. Higher family income had essentially zero correlation with sexual frequency or number of partners. Rich and poor Americans reported very similar sex lives. (This was one of the findings that surprised the researchers.) Married people had significantly more sex than single, divorced, widowed, or separated people. Roughly 90% of married respondents reported exactly one partner in the past year. Marriage itself had one of the LARGEST positive coefficients in the happiness equations. Typical American frequency was modest. The median person had sex 2–3 times a month. About 25% reported no sex in the previous year (higher among older women). Only about 7% reported 4+ times a week. Paying for sex or having extramarital sex was associated with LOWER happiness. Homosexuality had no statistically significant effect on happiness in their equations. Highly educated women tended to have fewer partners. In a time of declining marriage rates, falling sexual frequency among young adults, rising loneliness, and cultural messaging that endless novelty and “options” are the path to fulfillment, the data points the other way. The people reporting the HIGHEST happiness were disproportionately those having consistent sex with exactly one partner. * This is a correlational pattern across 16,000+ people.

Olive oil is not a seed oil. It’s pressed from fruit, the way humans have done for millennia. Do not let the word “oil” fool you into treating an ancient food and an industrial product as the same thing.

Wow, WEB really sustained himself for so long but age has really caught up with him in the last year

without proof I don’t believe he really does this

People forget what I have subtracted. Removing harm is my best performing longevity therapy.
