I also have a lease in NYC set to expire in September and plan not to renew it in favor of moving back home to Colorado. My hope is I'll be able to find remote work and pay off my student loans in one year while COVID blows over. No re

I suggest taking a look at the dragon portfolio https://taylorpearson.me/thedragon/ The basic idea is that you create a balanced portfolio of assets that are negatively correlated with each other so that, over a very l

This is why people should use P2P exchanges like Bisq or localbitcoins. The moment you transfer your coins to an exchange is the moment you lose control.

Online class is suitable for a range of courses, but not all. Specifically lab classes where equipment is required. You can't have a remote lab class, it's impossible. Students should absolutely be reimbursed for such cases.

Seems like the US should have UBI at this point. How can the purchasing of junk bonds be justified but not a UBI? Give every citizen a fed bank account, type in some numbers and poof! 2k/month.
