Here are some of this week’s important and interesting articles that I remembered to bookmark. I willfully acknowledge that quite a few of these I get from other people’s “things to read” lists and from what gets tweeted at me. I try to pass on pieces without a firewall.
You’ll notice a lot of articles that have charts. I like charts. It makes learning easier, but be careful, some charts are propaganda using biased data. Think things through in the context of a “slow growth forever” global economy that is anything but a free market and that is driven by social concerns, political ambitions, academic mistakes, monetary manipulation, fear and greed. Learn to be a chess player, and not just the flat board kind, the multi-dimensional, four level, more than two sides, animated characters with magic kind.
To get these articles a little bit more in real time, follow me on Twitter @KirkSpano.
