"Die Hard?"
"Yes. I heard it's a classic and I've never seen it before. Can we watch it?"

Had the pleasure of narrating Same As Ever: A Guide To What Never Changes, the new book from best-selling author

out on Nov 7th.
Regardless of format, get yourself a copy of this book.
It will help with your investing life as well as your Actual Life.
What kind of day has it been?
1st episode was Feb. 20, 2009.
Ended today talking w/
@wsbarkercfa
about the debt ceiling, $NVDA hitting a new all-time high, listener feedback, etc.
And a few thoughts of my own. 👋🥃

Take it from someone who has read it several times, it's terrific and will change for the better how you think about money.
Before becoming an NFL analyst for ESPN,
@minakimes
was an award-winning journalist covering Wall St.
We discussed her move from Bloomberg to ESPN, the NFL entering the streaming video wars, story lines to watch this season, underrated stats & more.
My Twitter is turning into a constant feed of tweets from people that I:
- don't follow
- have never heard of
Hope things improve in 2023. 🤞
Like this tweet if it's happening to you too.
Retweet if you don't follow me and you're seeing this b/c someone you follow follows me.

Business travel is dead.
Right up until the point Company X secures a partnership, funding, etc.
By traveling to demonstrate their passion & commitment.
And all of Company X's competitors have a decision to make.

Your periodic reminder that the "Law of Large Numbers" is not a law, it's a theory that was published in 1713.
Just something to keep in mind in case you were getting ready to tell the world why companies like $APPL $MSFT $GOOGL $AMZN $FB won't reward investors from here.
As a resident of northern Virginia for 25+ years, let me be very clear.
No one, no one, NO ONE....is referring to Crystal City

All of life's riddles are answered in the movies. For investors, today's come from Sean Connery in "The Untouchables."

If you feel like taking a break from stock talk, pull up a chair. I'm hanging out w/a couple friends talking about important things like:

- songs for the multiverse
- top robots in TV/movies
Lesson: It pays to bet on yourself.
How many "experts" at the big houses in NYC passed on the chance to publish this book b/c they didn't think it had wide appeal?
Kudos to
@harrimanhouse
for having vision while the rest of the publishing world was wearing bifocals.
The first print run of Psychology of Money was 5,000 copies because we thought that's all it would sell.
Four months later, I learned this morning that worldwide sales just crossed a quarter million.
Thanks for reading. Or at least buying.
Not sure when or how this all ends, but I would view the following as can't-miss, generational buying opportunities:
$AMZN below $90
$DIS below $80
$GOOG below $95 (post-split)
$HD below $250
$MTN below $200
$PLD below $100

I'm in favor of DC statehood, if only so everyone in every media business can save time and space by no longer having to write and say things like "Legal in 26 states AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA."
