Stay In Your Lane
By now, you’ve seen the action shot from last night’s Olympic 200m butterfly swim; you know, the one where Michael Phelps is mid stroke and zoned in looking down his lane.

Sell In May…Not So Fast
Don’t be so quick to “sell in May, and go away”. “Sell in May, and go away, and come back on St. Leger’s Day” was a reality in old England.

Money & Hip-Hop
Typically, rap artists are not your go-to source for financial advice, or even a good example of what to do with your money.

Back At The Top
A few weeks ago I blogged about the frustrations of rangebound markets for the long term investor. Well, it’s been a good few weeks, and we’re back at the top of the range.

Health Insurance Premiums Going Up, in 20-17
Hopefully, you read the title as if you were singing ILoveMakonnen’s “Tuesday”! Today was supposed to get off to a great start…it’s National Donut Day. But, the first article I read on Twitter put a bit of a damper on the national holiday. It is a national holiday, right? According to an article by a local news station, Anthem is predicting…
