Tip: Never take investing advices from people whose net worth is less than yours.

Stagflation Investing: How to position your portfolio

https://newacademyoffinance.com/stagflation-investing/

"There has been increasing chatter that stagflation is upon us. Stagflation is a term that is used to describe the phenomenon of increasing inflation and declining growth. The last time that stagflation reared its ugly head was back in the 1970s and that decade was marked by runaway inflationary pressures and stagnating economies (with high unemployment rates) for many developed economies, triggered by an oil shock.

Of late, we are increasingly reading reports that the risk of stagflation is once again upon us, this time triggered by a worsening COVID-19 situation despite global economies looking to ramp up their vaccination rates.

Hence, I thought it will be useful to highlight the notion of stagflation investing and how to position one’s portfolio to combat the rising risk of stagflation."

What will bring the financial world to its knees.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing. I am very interested in financial market lately and even decided to do some courses. Checking RE Mentor reviews and two other similar companies here and will make my choice soon. Maybe someone has experience with them? Good or bad?

Buying prescription glasses online: What they don't tell you



I've bought eyeglasses online many times with no problems, saving big $$.  Eyeglass frames and lenses are way overpriced from local shops.

One thing to note is that you need your pupillary distance measurement (PD), the distance between your pupils.

This is difficult to get as your ophthalmologist or local optician will often refuse to supply it since they also sell eyeglasses and know you will go online and cut them out.

Not proud about that but i never invested money in anything. Few years ago i bought an apartment which i rent out, that's the only case (if i can call it an investment really).  Only few days ago i contacted stripe customer service on this site and asked them about some financial advices. I want to start next year differently and manage my money more wisely.

Two Things I recommend
  • 1.) Fidelity (The Brokerage)
  • 2.) Destroy your ATM card and only use cash.
  • 3.) Optional...Stop using internet money transfers to pay bills...Use paper checks and "Snail Mail"

all right...Ok...Three..


Since I stopped using ATMs, my cash at the end of the month is 3 to 4 times more than before...The idea is to slow the movement of your money.

Once you get all the info you can photoshop the prescription card date/script and any of those online places will take it.  ;D

I just figured out you live in Norway...Even so...Don't use a thing like "Stripe"...Use a real bank.
