Welcome
Some of our best ideas come to us during the most inopportune times: waking up, in the shower, driving along a country road...my blog is an attempt to capture these epiphanies, whether whimsical or serious in nature. These blogs are heavily weighted toward financial matters and/or innovation (e.g. disruptive technology)--normally boring subject matter. But when sprinkled in with meanderings about human nature, I hope to shed some light on oft-misunderstood topics--without being dogmatic. Enjoy and perhaps learn a thing or two from my moments of clarity.
