Investment bank Morgan Stanley recently did something very peculiar:

It told Google to give away one of its smart speakers to everyone in America — for free.

The cost of this giveaway? About $3 billion.

For the last hundred years, CEOs from top companies have relied on Morgan Stanley not…

My Grandpa Ben told a heck of a good bedtime story.

With a Scotch in one hand, and a well-worn book in the other, he’d put on a show as he popped his dentures in and out and acted out all the parts.

This was about fifty years ago, well…

My son just turned three and he already speaks better Spanish than I do.

To be fair, he has two secret weapons. The first is the sponge-like brain of a toddler. The second is my wife — she’s a native Spanish speaker, and she only speaks Spanish to him.

I’ve…

I get it. I really do. Finding winning investments is tough in this environment.

But I know of an investment that’s not just a winner… it’s close to perfect.

Historically, it’s been off-limits to almost everyone but the ultra-rich.

But not anymore.

Let me tell you about it.

Yesterday, Matt filled you in on a certain situation — a situation we believe poses enormous risk to your financial security:

Inflation.

As he explained, at current inflation levels, not only is your existing cash getting crushed…

But over time, your retirement account could lose over 75% of its value.

With the Fed raising rates, we can finally start earning something on our cash:

For example, as of this week, we can earn more than 3% on a 10-year U.S. Treasury.

There’s just one problem, and it’s a doozy.

Today, I’ll explain what it is — and then we…

Seabiscuit. Secretariat. Seattle Slew.

They weren’t just great racehorses. They were great investments.

The thing is, thoroughbreds are wildly expensive.

That’s why, historically, only millionaires could invest in them — and only millionaires could enjoy all the excitement and potential profits that go along with owning them.

But not anymore…

My brother can’t find a good bagel.

In the grand scheme of things, this isn’t a threat to our civilization.

But still, he’s a good kid, and he deserves a good bagel.

The problem is, he used to live in New York City, home of the best bagels on earth.…

In 1985, when I was about to go to college, I bought myself an expensive watch.

It was a brown Movado, with a brown leather band, and it cost about $150.

Sure, there’s been some inflation lately. But I was more than a little surprised recently to see a watch…

During a recent business trip, I rented a Tesla to get from San Francisco to Los Angeles.

I’d been behind the wheel of a Tesla a few times before. But this was the first time I’d taken one for a long-distance road trip. You probably won’t be surprised to hear…
