’s book The Geometry of Wealth schooled me a bit. Risk and return are not linearly related. More risk = more variation in the possible outcome.
If you watch one thing on the stock market today, make it this new series from our CEO

One of the biggest wealth transfers in history is about to happen. A $38 billion stake in Amazon will pass to MacKenzie Bezos as part of her divorce from the world's richest man.
Fama says he agrees with his good friend Richard Thaler on the facts about behavioral finance, but disagrees on the interpretation.
He then surprises
@ritholtz
by saying: "There is no behavioral finance. It's all just a criticism of efficient markets, with no evidence."
Happy birthday

When I first spoke to you about joining RWM, you said "I just want you to be Blair". Thank you for making my career dreams come true.
I don't know if anyone is talking about it, but New Orleans has done a great job reducing our Covid outbreak. We've had < 20 new cases combined the last three days. And that's with a high level of testing.
Can confirm, it is possible to be concerned for the President’s health and hope he recovers while simultaneously furious about his wanton disregard for basic public health guidelines.
Market selloffs don't mix well with Twitter snark. People saving for retirement are genuinely worried, and we are on here fist bumping each other's one-liners.
This lack of transparency creates the illusion of lower volatility than public stock markets. Private equity investments may be valued quarterly, but actual returns are unknown until a sale occurs at the end of the investment.
It’s hard to put in to words the experience of seeing your byline in the New York Times. This is a watershed moment for me.
The title is provocative. My intention is to highlight the…
Instagram is an inferior social media in so many ways: 1. No links in posts 2. No RTs without a separate app 3. can't post from your computer (?) 4. separate apps for almost every feature
What were you doing the week of February 24th? If not self quarantining in your home, stop the Monday morning quarterbacking of New Orleans' Mardi Gras.
Happy to announce that I am joining that

Financial Advisor Council in 2020. I look forward to working with group leader Jim Pavia and all the other esteemed advisors on the council.
I watched a fair amount of regular TV with commercials over Thanksgiving, and something struck me .... a car is not an appropriate Christmas gift for your spouse. That’s a household financial decision, not a gift.
Perhaps there is no greater public pension horror story than that of the New Orleans Firefighters’ Pension and Relief Fund. According to the latest actuarial report from 2016, the fund has $43 million in assets for $464 million in liabilities.
PSA for everyone acting macho about veggie burgers, heart disease is a real killer. A guy I grew up with dropped dead of a heart attack last week. He was 39. It’s not weak to watch your meat intake.
I went out tonight. And not only did I have an amazing dinner with my husband, but I ran into two dear friends! Life is going back to normal, and I’m here for it.
I forgot to tweet this morning, that what you are going to see in the GameStop hearing today is that most of your Congressional leaders have no idea how markets work.
This is leadership from a portfolio manager.
@CliffordAsness
is a breath of fresh air with his candor about the difficult run for his strategies. <Long read and worth it>
Attended the funeral of a family friend today. 64 and died suddenly in the prime of his life. Two beautiful adult children in their 20s. One of the nicest men in New Orleans who did so much for others.
Hug your people and tell them you love them.
Introducing my blog: The Belle Curve. Link in my bio. This is an exciting day and something I have wanted to do for years. I will be sharing my thoughts on investing, financial planning,…
I've never met anyone who introduced themselves as a high net worth investor. So why are we defining our ideal clients with terms like this? - Nikolee Turner

Maybe you’ve seen this happen to other women – your friend, your daughter, your daughter-in-law, or your niece. Perhaps that led to a completely innocent and benign assumption that I might do the same.
Incredible three days in the Arizona desert with so many friends from the
