With the stock market at all times highs (again), I like to take a breather during these times to take a look at gloom & doom forecasts. In this particular case, I gathered the “wisdom of the crowd” by viewing threads on Reddit. I asked AI to summarize the gloom and doom and here’s what…

April 2026 Investment Returns (Sneak Peak)
With April behind us I was eager to have AI take a look at my transactions and give me some analysis. It seems AI kept making mistakes in how it calculates things on this data set. All I know for certain is that my accounts went up in value but how they went up may…
Are You Living In The Right State For Your Persona?
One of the most depressing Reddit forums (at least for me) is the /r/povertyfinance and I only visit it about once a quarter to see what is troubling people. A quick glance at many of the headlines will probably depress you so tread cautiously. After doom scrolling through the doom posts, it suddenly hit me…

First AI Driven Put Credit Spread

AI Saved Me $1700 In Taxes (Correction Post)
I wrote a post a few weeks ago about how I owe Uncle Sam $10000 and I normally file my taxes the first week of April to leave time for rejections/corrections and payment processing. I opened up TurboTax again and something just didn’t feel right about the whole tax situation. What bothered me the most…

As I approach retirement, income generation and capital preservation are two key things that are the most important thing to me.
