@ppearlman MAN DID YOU MARRY UP

Death is bad for humans. Father Time, just ask Warren, is an unfair winner in the game of life. Also note - you decide what you make of your life, and no one knows what you're going through. As @SethDavisHoops says: Be Kind. Being kind will never hurt you.

Blow stuff up. Repair it poorly. Claim an accomplishment/victory. Incompetency at its core. Vote them out.

@ZachJoachim You looked to be in decent shape when you went by our place at mile 22!

The marathon owes you nothing. You owe the marathon everything. All the love, RVA 💙🥲🏃🌇🥇 26.2 || 4:02

So let me get this straight: You’ll be taxed when you make a pension contribution, taxed when you receive income from your pension - and your family will have to pay inheritance tax on any pension fund you leave behind. And this is supposed to encourage people to save for retirement?

@RampCapitalLLC If you're new to the consulting business the one thing you want to make sure you are NOT known for is good PowerPoint skills

Yeah TikTok is bad for our mental health but what about Powerpoint?

@InvestGCM @LauraLoomer no brain, either, I bet

@MJNewfield @LauraLoomer 😂😂

Serious question: If @lauraloomer were bit by a vampire would the vampire die?

@LizSimmie Hey they're 15, so that's OK.

@cullenroche Naw, I'm fried. Pan fried, that is.

Cooking dinner. May I meat you?

December 31, 2025. You may cheer the day - my last as a professional (arguably) financial advisor. open.substack.com/pub/uncertaint…

@morganhousel The Forecasters’ Hall of Fame continues to have no members.

The most common market take can be described as "person who didn't see this coming is now 100% confident about what happens next."

@Byte_Sized_Blog @dougboneparth Also, concentrated investments are good. (Not financial advice!)

@dougboneparth Some stock picker, somewhere: "See! Market timing does work!"

Gotta love how the U.S. buys a 10% stake in Intel right before Nvidia invests $5 billion in the company, causing the stock to surge 30%. It’s almost like they knew!

@ppearlman O very young, what will you leave us this time?

Im noticing a lot of anger & anxiety on the Twitter. As much as I’ve seen before. Please be kind out there & focus on loving the people you care most about in your real life. “We’re only dancing on this earth for a short while…

These past twelve months working with @lady__bost and the @PodPonyLLC team have been loads of fun. We had awesome guests. I am grateful for being a part of the How Did We Get Here pod. The link to the final episode (at least for now!) is in the second post.

@StojBoj @lady__bost John, thank you. It was a joy to create, you are amazing, and Jess is fantastic. I am fortunate to know you both.

There are thousands upon thousands of podcasts out there, & they all take work. @lady__bost & @MJNewfield put the work in, so much so that I recommend listening to all episodes if you want to learn about people. Thanks for all you both contributed. overcast.fm/+ABJ8876faac
