CAPITAL IDEAS: You are not going to be OK

My point is that it’s not just about investing—you’ve got to be aware of your mistakes. Humans tend to be overconfident in their skills.

CAPITAL IDEAS: Go refund me

You deserve to receive your income when you get paid. Change your withholding and stop treating IRS tax refunds as if it’s some sort of windfall.

CAPITAL IDEAS: Vive la resistance!
