My 7 year old last night at our weekend cabin: “why does this place only have 2 potties?”

The look on her face as I explained that my mom- MOM- was 5th child brought home to a house w no flush toilet…. 1950s

🤯

Her reply: “we really are blessed, then!”

This is the home my grandmother lived in (Lee County., NC) until she went to college in **1948**. Anyone selling you an early or mid 20th century golden age is full of it.

reminder: if you invested $1 in 1950s, today = $3k. But if you only invested when your favorite political party was in power, it would be less than $100 (R or D)

pretty sure I got that stat from @Ritholtz here:

Most writers don't know this. I didn't. When a host told me how many pitches he gets DAILY-my jaw *literally* dropped

Authors: not getting traction? don't blame producers

But don't give up, either. Remember: rule #1 = solve THEIR problems (serve listeners) not yours

I received around 70 pitches a week for one slot every other week on our podcast. That means you have a 1/140 chance of getting that invite. I'm not interested in promoting your book/tv show/movie/seminar. I'm interested in financial knowledge for our Stackers. Know what we do and show how you can help me, and you've got a shot (still not a great one...but you have a shot).

My only election day thought:

Most people invest the same way they vote for County Council.

Should pay attention, but too boring, so Google last minute to figure out which is which, then text the one friend who is into this stuff to ask what to do ... and just do that.
