I'm betting that only people/organizations that follow such things very closely will know anything ever happened.

I actually really hate having investments. This is far too stressful. I'm refusing to look.

My mum's financial advisor said you should take away your age from 100, and that is the percentage of your money you should have in stocks and shares. The rest should be cash in the bank.

Are you about to retire? If not, buy more investments when there's a downturn. You only lose money on an investment when you sell. If you don't need to sell something off to live on during retirement, look at a market downturn as a store-wide sale.

I get emails at least weekly from Edward Jones telling me to go look at what they are doing with my money. I don't.

Here's the headline:

Quote:

PBS writer mumbles 'not bad' at picture of Duchess Meghan Markle, is fired: lawsuit

Disclosure: I knew this man several decades ago. His father was a retied British Army Major from Gibraltar. His mother was in the US Women's Army Corps and from Pittsburgh, PA. He has lived in Europe. Professional background

Story:

Quote:

An editor for PBS Newshour Weekend mumbled “not bad” at a photo of Meghan Markle, outraging colleagues and resulting in his termination, according to a new lawsuit.

Max*, 72, says in papers filed in Manhattan Federal Court that his colleagues on the show misunderstood and overreacted to his stray comment to a male co-worker.

The remark came on Nov. 25, 2017 as Max* wrote a story about the Royal Family and Prince Harry’s engagement to Markle, who is now the Duchess of Sussex.

“By this remark, (Max*) intended to convey that the Duchess possessed charm and beauty and was a suitable match for her fiance, who has a reputation of possessing charm and handsome looks,” the suit reads. “Plaintiff did not intend his remark to be a sexual comment about the Duchess.” ...

*We called him by the shortened version of his middle name to differentiate him from his namesake father.

Q: Given his age and background, is his explanation plausible from your point of view?
