Recent post on freezing your #credit. Costs nothing and protects you from credit #fraud at the source. Bonus is that it’s not retroactive like “credit monitoring”, which will let you know when the fraud happened but do nothing to stop it.

Still my favorite description of the stock market

Ralph Wanger via William Bernstein:

I don’t know who needs to hear this but…

Your job is NOT to take on untold risk to try to outperform the market, that’s a fool’s errand

Your job is to grow your money
at a risk you feel comfortable with
to get a return that allows you to achieve a level of freedom that makes sense
for you

I don’t understand when people say they didn’t learn how to budget or how to do taxes in school. Did your school not have a mandatory Personal Finance class?
