Looks like the first half of 2022 changed status for many. Electric vehicle incentives might not be as great as it seemed, your car wash could be a target for private equity firms, and please stay away from those meme stocks.  Pretty please… plus jobs to ease the travel burden for retirees.

Did you blink? Tech stocks entered a bull market.  Inflation eases a bit, the IRS is way backed up and it’s systems are ancient.  Penalties to stay in your old 401(k) plan and more on the gender pay gap.

FAFSA, FAFSA, FAFSA.  More FAFSA if circumstances change. Health proxy anyone? Watch for the insurance on your bill.  Is renter’s insurance necessary for college students?  Plus gas under $4, a little more bashing of Robinhood and social security could see a hefty jump.  Plus plus napping for dollars.

That will be $200, please.  Nice rebound in July, student loan pause and more to follow and Amazon moves into Healthcare.  Is working from anywhere still a perk and wait a second…that car accident wasn’t my fault.  Might want to mention that to your insurance company.

Could be yes or no depending on your definition. 3% mortgages are still available, single stock ETFs available for speculators and home equity loans invested in Celsius – my bad, honey. Plus IRS paperwork, handling your lottery winnings and Jay has endowment envy – relative to Harvard, anyway.

BMW charging a monthly subscription for heated seats, Tesla in “Doggie Mode,” car payments now averaging $700 and Heathrow reducing daily capacity.  Plus the largest SPAC comes to an end, others to follow suit and quarterly commentary.

Shocker of shockers – Musk has changed his mind on buying Twitter.  Legal battle to follow.  MA settles with Vanguard, Crypto problems continue and don’t forget about those gift cards. Plus audits could be in store if you piss off the wrong people and PLEASE bump me off that flight.

What have we done right?  Thanks for asking.  Negotiate, save, and please remain calm during turbulent times.

Yes, we’ve heard that before.  Rough week in the markets, crypto winter, inflation and Roth conversions.  Plus a record payout for lunch with Warren, dogs renting out your yard and the comeback of Happy Hour.
