So… I made a small mistake. Two posts ago, in Could Index Funds Be Bad?, I said at the end that my next post would be about Actively Managed Funds (Gambling). However, for some reason I decided to make the next post, The Biggest Mistake of Your Life. I’m not sure why this happened. Nonetheless, here is that post:

So I follow what is happening in startups because I find it fascinating. One of the things I keep coming across is “machine learning” and “artificial intelligence” and their potential to “disrupt” medicine. A recent article talked about this phenomenon in general: “Artificial Intelligence Software Is Booming. But Why Now?” – New York Times Here are 90+ Artificial Intelligence Startups in Healthcare So… why now? Well, a lot has happened since the early days of AI. […]

I didn’t have Twitter on my iPhone and hardly used it […]
Do you even Twitter, Doc?

Students often ask me questions about things they don’t know one day (perfectly fine), only to ask me the same exact question the next day (NOT fine!). Do you realize how irritating this is?!

How to Crush Your Rotations – Guest Post from @DrBloomDO ...

There was a recent article in the Wall Street Journal blog titled “Are Index Funds Eating the World?” To be honest, this is kind of a click-bait title (as is mine)… but it worked.
