I have always been interested in the long term implications of short term modifications to the inputs into exponential growth formulas. To examine some examples of these implications, I have made several models that are graphed to illustrate the solid conclusion that if at all possible, you should never pay yourself. At least not too […]
If patience were a substance of which I could somehow hoard, I would selfishly acquire, at almost any cost, as much as I possibly could. The kind of take no prisoners kind of free for all kind of hoarding. The kind of ransack rob at gunpoint violent kind of sacking we could only imagine should […]
While I’m not about to instruct you to maneuver your way miraculously throughout your office in evasion of agents Smith, Jones and Brown, I am going to elaborate on how to have a more sober view of that with which we have our daily dance. Almost everywhere where I read about the stock market, I […]
