The ultra-rich: how are they doing?
See this link: America's richest have recovered from the shortest recession on record. WSJ. If you run out of things to at at 5:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning, you could do worse than have fun with this database: "real-time billionaires." It's a bit slow to re-load and there is so much information you can stay entertained for hours. And best of all, during normal business hours, it's updated every five minutes.
Self-made ultra-rich: if you spend any time at that Forbes database, be sure to see the Forbes self-made score.
The ultra-rich are ranked on a scale from 1 to 10, and its fascinating. Warren Buffet scored only an "8" due to the fact he was not born in poverty, nor sexually abused as a child. That will get you a "10" where Oprah Winfrey as well as a few others are ranked.
Really rich: 50 richest Americans now worth more than poorest 165 million. Link here.
Another win for President Trump: federal judge dismisses high-tax states' lawsuit against Trump tax deduction limits. Fox News, September 30, 2020. You will need to google if, if interested.
NFL: the season is at risk.
I posted that as a personal thought a couple of days ago based on reading of the tea leaves. Now, even more objective evidence. But before we get the early demise of the NFL season we will go to Tuesday night, Wednesday night, and Friday night NFL to join Sunday, Monday, and Thursday night football. Saturday will be reserved for the few colleges are that still playing.
Georgia H. If you have time to read just one essay today this would be the essay, over at PowerLine, Georgia H is:
A lovely, young, very articulate and intelligent woman who was in Teach for America and then became a nurse to escape public “education.” It is her painful journey from her childhood roots in a progressive community to arrive finally at the plain truth that she had been brainwashed throughout her young life. Now she rejects the Democrat Party and inclines strongly toward the GOP and generally supports its candidates, including Trump.If you don't have the time or interest to read the essay, at least note the last item from the 30-year-old Georgia:
