1/ This summer I covered the #PortlandRiots in a series I called #PortlandiaNights because the mainstream media refused to do so. Yesterday @tedwheeler actually acknowledged that Antifa is not only very real but very dangerous. I'm reposting my coverage in this thread.

2/ America's Newest Reality Show: Portlandia Nights (Originally posted 7/17/2020) I had watched the riots going on for more than 50 days when I decided to start covering them. #PortlandRiots

I’m torn on how to approach the idea of luck. I’m the first to admit that I am one of the luckiest people on the planet. To be born into a prosperous American family in 1960 with smart parents is to start life on third base. The odds against my very existence are astronomical.


I’ve always felt that the luckiest people I know had a talent for recognizing circumstances, not of their own making, that were conducive to a favorable outcome and their ability to quickly take advantage of them.

In other words, dumb luck was just that, it required no awareness on the person’s part, whereas “smart” luck involved awareness followed by action before the circumstances changed.

So, was I “lucky” to be born when I was—nothing I had any control over—and that I came of age just as huge databases and computers were advancing to the point where I could use those tools to write “What Works on Wall Street?” Absolutely.

Was I lucky to start my stock market investments near the peak of interest rates which allowed me to spend the majority of my adult life in a falling rate environment? Yup.
