If you’re wondering, “How many years can I take a loss on my business?” then you’re probably reaching a point where you’ve been claiming too many losses on your taxes. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) only allows your business to be in the negative for a certain number of years before it declassifies it as a business.

I'm a house-picking genius. In the two and a half years since I moved in, my home has appreciated by 40%. I learned of this through an appraisal for a refinance that I'm going through. Everyone has anecdotes like this, but what we're seeing and hearing is confirmed by the data. Prices have gotten completely out of hand. Today we learned that home prices across the country gained 14.6% y/o/y, which is the biggest gain on record.

Modern economies developed as we found more efficient energy sources, moving from coal to oil to natural gas and nuclear. Now we want to transition from carbon to renewables like solar and wind.

Investor expectations are way out of whack with reality, according to the global survey of individuals. U.S. investors* expect 17.5% real returns over the long term. If these survey numbers are to be believed, investors are about to be very disappointed. The S&P 500 has returned 10.4% over the long term. The idea that we're going to get 17% real, after getting 17% nominal over the last 5 years, is nothing short of absurd.

Like being inches from the end zone, many advisors are frustratingly close to their next level of success. You work hard. You put in the hours. But if your closing rate is stuck or your pipeline feels like a revolving door… something has to change. Most advisors are just one small shift away from dramatically increasing their revenue. The difference?

When the S&P 500 fell in March last year, it brought Bitcoin down with it. So if stocks can bring down Bitcoin, it's reasonable to ask if Bitcoin can bring down stocks.* If you thought the Bitcoin run-up to 60k was emblematic of investor** euphoria, then you probably wondered what would happen if it were to come crashing down. Would that take other high-flying areas of the market down with it?

Inflation is an interesting thing. People who have an opinion before they see the data don't update their priors once the numbers are revealed. Imagine this for a second. General Motors reports revenue of $32 billion. One group of people argue that it's understated, while another group argues that it's overstated. You would never see this because General Motors revenue isn't personal.
