What we have been reading - 12th April 2023
Here’s what we enjoyed reading over the past few weeks:
The Age of Average: I found this really interesting.
50 Ways the World is Getting Better: The media makes us believe the world is going to hell in a handbasket, but the reality is that the world is getting better for most people most of the time.
Home Ownership? The answer is, it depends: Owning a home is not always everything it is cracked up to be.
Risky Business: A great article on the difficulties of quantifying risk. When someone says, 'investing in the stock market is risky' I always want to know how they are defining risk.
An Inferno of Compound Interest: A fire is a great analogy to understand compound interest. Remember, you have to get through the boring part before you get to the exciting part - don't give up before you get there!
Viva La Revolucion!: We often get the question, why do we want to own European equities? This is a good analysis of why Europe might surprise on the upside over the coming years and why we want to continue to own it. And this article touches on why we own Emerging Market stocks too.
Podcast: I mentioned Peter Attia in my last blog post (here). This conversation with Tim Ferris (one of my favourites) is amazing. It's packed full of information about how to live a healthier and longer life. You won't regret giving it your time. I am currently engrossed in Peter's book, Outlive.
FINALLY:
How to use AI to do Practical Stuff: A new guide: It's time to start understanding what AI can do.
Enjoy!
