Dillon Read and the Aristocracy of Stock Profits

This Thursday night on The Solari Report is our 3rd Quarter Wrap Up. These quarterly wrap ups are a time when I like to take the long view - particularly as to investment trends and what it means to your personal and asset strategies.

Also – why in the face of all the bad news do I continue to be optimistic about the long term trends? If you have not listened to my interview with Adam Trombly on Zero Point Energy, I encourage you to do so.

Dick Cheney's Fluffernutter

It is the literary equivalent of a fluffernutter - an amazing amount of goo poured between slices of white bread. I read Cheney’s book In My Time because I wanted to see how he could explain his political history inside the constricting boundaries of the official reality. ...
