It’s me. I’m the problem.



President Trump released an essay-length Truth Social post attacking Pope Leo for being “weak on crime” and “weak on nuclear weapons.” This comes on the heels of the Pope’s statements calling for an end to the war in Iran. Follow: @AFpost






Only Midwesterners can survive this drive







10 timeless lessons from the smartest trading book of all time: 1. Luck matters more than people like to admit. A lot of success is not pure talent or hard work. 2. Good result does not always mean a good decision. You can make a smart choice and still lose, or make a bad choice and still win. 3. People are very bad at noticing randomness. We want patterns and explanations, even when events are partly random. 4. We often confuse survivors with experts. We see the winners, not the many people who failed doing the same thing. 5. Stories can mislead us. After something happens, people create a neat explanation, but reality is usually messier. 6. Overconfidence is dangerous. The more certain people sound, the more careful you should be. 7. Big rare events matter a lot. One unexpected event can wipe out years of success. 8. Protecting yourself from disaster is often smarter than chasing huge gains. 9. Humility is a strength. It is better to admit uncertainty than pretend you understand everything. 10. Be skeptical of people who claim they can fully predict markets, life, or the future.
