Over at The Hill, Lloyd Sloan sings the praises of Rand Paul’s tax plan, which is unlike any other seen in the Republican or Democrat field of candidates: Senator Paul’s plan calls for a 14.5 percent flat rate on income. It will replace today’s corporate taxes with a new 14.5 percent value-added tax. It eliminates […]
Accuracy is Everything
When it comes to using your firearm, accuracy is everything. There’s nothing more important than where your bullet ultimately ends up. Here’s a great drill from my favored training school, Sig Sauer Academy, to increase your accuracy with a pistol.
Americans are Fleeing these Cities
Whether because of a lack of jobs, or a high cost of living, Americans are fleeing these twenty cities (identified by Bloomberg) for greener pastures in other parts of the country. Interestingly, as middle-income Americans are forced out of some cities by high housing costs, they are being replaced by immigrants who don’t mind living cheek-by-jowl […]
Americans are Getting Stronger
From Benjamin Graham’s, The Intelligent Investor, first published in 1949: “Americans are getting stronger. Twenty years ago, it took two people to carry ten dollars’ worth of groceries. Today, a five-year-old can do it. —Henny Youngman”

Catch, Admire, and Release
I had a real nice visit with a client yesterday. We talked about his upcoming fly fishing trip. Last year he and his friend caught 13 native Cutthroat trout averaging 22 inches. He made it sound as easy as 1-2-3. “E.J.”, he said. “There’s the catch, there’s the admire, and there’s the release.” Here they […]
MONEY’s Best Colleges
You never think you’re old. I can’t believe it was 25-years ago this Summer that I graduated high school from Tabor Academy in Marion, MA and was getting ready to head to Babson College in the Fall. And you don’t often hear the word value and college in the same sentence. But that’s exactly what MONEY’s Best Colleges list […]
