So basically, the economic news sucks. And to a lot of people, it isn’t a surprise.
Ok, Musk is assured One Trillion Dollars in ten years if all goes well with Tesla. What does one individual need a trillion dollars for ohanther than to get the number one spot on the wealth screcard. Lets say just he takes $200 million. He could buy 5 $20M house and two $100K cars everyother year for each home and had be out about $125 M. Throw in $10 M worth of yachts and toys and he’d still have around $65M. That should be plenty. If he took out 4% of that total each year that would give him $2.6M annually for groceries, restaurants, yard upkeep, streaming tv fees and new slipcovers . Of course that $65 M invested concervatively could grow by a modest 4-5% each jear, assurning retention of principle. So he is set. And that leaves him with $999,800,000,000 to good for the world.

The Saturday college football lineup is not very attractive this weekend. The only one that remotely stirs my imagination is Navy against Notre Dame. I'll be rooting for the Navy which has looked like a giant... so far.
In RI, three more cars plowed into houses and a businesse. It just continues to happen on a regular basis, And I am bewildered. I mean houses and businesses are hard to miss, and they certainly don’t leap into roads. I don't like being accusatory, but before the Smart phone a digital auto screens it was a rare oddity.
