🤫 What "not-so-secret" I let out of the bag -
|
💣 What boom will bust -
- Beyond Meat, the fake meat company, had a massive IPO. People are flocking to the Impossible Burger (not a burger). But I agree with Citron Research that "Beyond Meat has become Beyond Stupid." I think this fake meat craze will crash when the hype settles revealing that "clean meat" is neither a good investment of your finances nor your health.

🎓 What wisdom for new grads I'm listening to -
- Lots of new grads entering the "real world." Lots of good advice being handed out. I like the advice of viewing your life as a painting, not a ladder. I also agree with financial guru, Ramit Sethi, advising to "spend extravagantly on the things you love and cut costs mercilessly on the things you don't." I also
find myself listening to Steve around this time every year.

🎨 What my stick figures look like -
- When I started my New Year's drawing challenge (at least 5 minutes, 5 days/week) I couldn't draw a stick figure. Well picture #8 is an attempt at a portrait drawing - my stick figure has filled out a bit.

🧠 What quote I'm thinking about -
"The way we process the world is driven by our belief structure as opposed to our belief structure being formed by how we process the world."
-Annie Duke

💸 What if... -
- What if US decided that the amount of money they printed would be cut in half every 4 years? And in 30 years there would be no more printing of money ever again? A similar "experiment" is underway. And the next halving is less than a year away.
