What might the stock market look like 5 years from now? If it's higher, then should you be buying or selling right now? Even if it were to go down 50% more from here, but 5 years from today it were higher, would buying be a mistake or a good decision? It's kind of an important question, isnt it?

I'd prefer frozen in this case, but I found myself faced with a decision to liquidate hundreds of thousands of dollars of investments or borrow money. I chose the borrowing route, and while I think it was the right decision FOR ME, it doesn't come without risks and without me losing control of money.

Media is a business, not a public service. The same is true for social media. Their goals are to extract as much profit as they can. Sensationalism sells, pragmatism doesn't. Next time you're listening to someone on TV talk about doom and gloom, remember that they don't care if you meet your goals or not. Only that you "pay" attention.

Sometimes the market just plain sucks. That's the kind of market we're in now. There are myriad reasons why, but the only thing that matters is what matters to you. How you feel and how you act will likely have more to do with YOUR reality than the market action.

Oil finds a way into most of our lives. The roads you drive on are paved with oil. Each tire on your electric car take about 7 gallons of oil to produce. Even your toothbrush comes from oil!

Hope is not a strategy. You can certainly hope that things go your way. And you should have hope for a better future, especially if you're an investor. But hope by itself is not a strategy. This week we call on three famous innovators to illustrate the point.

To get 1% better every day means you'd improve by 37x every year. It might be doable in some areas for a little while, but probably not a sustained period of time. What I think is better is to focus on incremental improvement. You get really far by taking small steps.
