Also, an Investing 101 note: Some people’s bubble bursting is another person’s market correction.

You know that feeling when you find a $20 you stuck in a book once, forgot about, and randomly come across as you’s flipping through it again?

Ideas?

Finished reading: Buzz Kill by J. Robert Lennon 📚

A fun second book in the series. This time, sisters Lila and Jane are on the track of drug addled right wing conspirators. An engaging adventure made more so by the fact that J. Robert is really good at writing women characters.
