Even after the recent correction there are a lot of overpriced, overhyped stocks in the market, but you can still chart your way to success. Here are nine rules you can use to guide your way. I first listed these back in August of 1996, but they work just as well today as they did […]

When the Wealthy Flee, Who Pays for Government?
It is important to analyze your political situation. Is your state taxing you unfairly? Is there an alternative? I wrote this piece on October 8, 2018 to encourage Americans to think about what happens when wealthy taxpayers flee punitive taxation. Who will pay for a state’s government when there’s no one left with any money? […]
Middle America, The Real America, Has Turned to Trump
Middle Americans, feeling a gap in their lives, have chosen President Trump, much like they chose President Obama in 2008, to fill that gap, explains Timothy P. Carney in The American Conservative. Carney writes (abridged): If you’ve ever been to a Donald Trump rally, you’ll notice it doesn’t match the impression left by the […]
Trump Can Turn Around the SOTU Address
Before there was Obama, there was Woodrow Wilson, “the most dramatically progressive president we’d ever had,” writes Michael Walsh in American Greatness. Wilson morphed the annual State of the Union speech into what it has become today: “the hot air that keeps the Capitol dome inflated,” with its stupefying length and “a laundry list of […]
Tucker Explains: Earning $1 a Year
If America has learned one thing from Tucker Carlson of late, it is that too many citizens are not being heard. They love their country. But have no voice. At the core of Tucker’s message is that in order to change the country, politicians need to understand the individuality/self-interest that makes America great. The simple […]
R.I.P. Jack Bogle.
Vanguard’s founder Jack Bogle contributed so much to each of us in the investment industry that it is impossible for me to know where to begin.

Liberal Globalists Are “Far From a Majority in France.”
Scott McConnell, writing in The American Conservative, explains to readers that Emmanuel Macron was “elected by voters either at peace with liberal globalism or fearful that Marine Le Pen would be too disruptive. He now knows that the former group, at least, are far from a majority in France.” With the weakness of his mandate, […]
Remembering Jack Bogle
You know the Vanguard 500 Index thanks to him. And someday, if a Mount Rushmore for investor legends is carved into a mountain side, Jack Bogle will be there front and center. Mr. Bogle passed away yesterday at the age of 89. He will be remembered for the low cost index fund—an idea he made […]
Pompeo and Bolton Looking For War With Iran?
At The American Conservative Pat Buchanan highlights President Trump’s repeated calls to “stop the endless wars,” even as recently as Sunday. That’s the sentiment that hard working Americans looking for an “America First” foreign policy voted for in 2016, but since then President Trump has surrounded himself with advisers who would rather embroil America further […]
Weaponizing Racism
Brit Hume of Fox News is not holding his breath waiting for Rep. Steve King to win any award for being a civil rights leader. But as Mr. Hume notes, the NYT, which printed a long piece on King’s history of racist comments, should not be “throwing the word racist around with abandon.” Islam a […]
