It’s the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, so likely a light day of work for a lot of people. If you’re attempting to kill some time before the holiday, we have some great reads for you today. Happy Thanksgiving!
Here’s what I’ve been reading this morning:
‘It Might Take a Recession to Slow Down the Consumer’ – Ben Carlson – A Wealth of Common Sense
- There are charts floating around citing how personal savings rates are dropping and credit card debt is spiking. While those two separate stats may be true, Ben illustrates why it’s not exactly apples to apples.
‘Learning to Live’ – Nick Maggiulli – Of Dollars and Data
- Nick used his weekly post this week to shares a few lessons that he’s learned over the last year. Tuesday was Nick’s birthday (happy belated birthday!), so it was as good a time as any to look back at the last year.
‘Savers Get Paid Again’ – Blair duQuesnay – The Belle Curve
- For the last few years people have been complaining about the miniscule amount your savings account paid in interest. Not anymore! Blair writes about how the rise in rates has helped those with money in savings as well.
‘Why Protections for Crypto Investors are Linked to Orange Groves’ – Greg Iacurci – CNBC
- Currently, cryptocurrency falls into a rather gray area when it comes to the law. Greg explains how a Supreme Court case from 1946 can factor into the legal process for crypto moving forward.
ENJOY!
