2Envisioning the ScenarioNow, before I get into a few of the Army’s weapons systems, I want you to envision the following scenario. This is not fiction. It actually happened and it had our firm and me in particular, on a level of extreme focus and attention, and let’s just say, a lot of time was spent on preparing to rapidly adjust equity portfolios in the event of what I will tell you about, being the straw that broke the camel’s back. The news recently carried reports of U.S. Navy assets

A Masterclass in Societal Contradictions, Served with a Side of Sarcasm Ladies and gentlemen, gather 'round as we wade into the murky swamp of modern absurdity, where logic goes to die and contradictions reign supreme. The latest tragedy in Minneapolis—a school shooting that claimed two young lives and left 17 others injured—has once again exposed the bewildering inconsistencies of a society that can’t decide whether its youth are masterminds or morons.

I grew up with late night television. You grew up with late night television. A lot of us who are baby boomers grew up with it. But let us be honest—it has long since been dead. Late night television basically ended when Jay Leno and David Letterman finished their runs. To be even more precise, it really ended when Jay Leno came back and kicked Conan O'Brien off the air. That was the last straw. I probably watched for the last time right around then. I am not unaware of what has been on

Home Equity Rape - Yes, I Said It

For most retirees, the home is the largest asset they own. It is not just a roof overhead; it is the result of a lifetime of saving and sacrifice. It is also the last great guarantee of inheritance that can be passed to children and grandchildren. That is why home equity has become the latest target of financial schemes, dressed up as “innovations” but in practice designed to strip away security and legacy.The most common products pushed on retirees are home equity loans, home equity lines

Not because of a single incident, but because of an attitude—an attitude I now see in people of all ages. This piece is for those my age and older, and for those younger who might want to stop and think before they roll their eyes. Some will be upset by what I have to say.
