In the middle of your podcast with Grant, which has been excellent so far.

As the meme goes, "I am somewhat of a Lincoln fan myself" and just finished Jon Meacham's And There Was Light - thought it was worthwhile and wanted to pass it along. https://www.jonmeacham.com/book/and-there-was-light/

I'm listening to the podcast and I love it. I'm a Delco kid , paper routs, mowed yards been working since 12 yrs old. I started Fleck in 96. Also was friends with the Clipper fund folks (Jim Gibson) . I'm angry at this because like you I see what they do to most people. I wish you didn't tell me that the Bernank made 20 mill a year.

Yeah, never took a penny from parents after like 6th grade - they didn't have any extra anyway.

I remember mutual fund Clipper Fund. I was in that for a bit with years ago.

I forget who told me $20M but it was a Wall Street guy and I believe it. Any amount angers me.

I've asked Grant and he said yes for my paid subscribers so I'll have to wait and see how we can arrange that.

So happy that Mary Daly is committed to the dollar holding its purchasing power from week to week.

Also, bagels are up from $2.49 to $2.99 this week at trader joes but they seem to taste better and are actually cheaper than ever.

Great podcast. We actually got to hear the man behind the curtain. How about you and Prof Dave Collum on the same podcast?! I'm not sure that Twitter is ready for that!

I'd like to do one with Dave.

Yellen took the blue ( honesty) by mistake. Was only telling the truth so, pretty soon she might even step down b/c she shouldn’t be there in the first place.

Great work! Speaking of podcasts, the person in charge of titles hopefully did this for a giggle 🤭 "Federal Reserve Insider Shares All"

OK now I have to subscribe to Grant Williams - something I’d been considering for a while - I hope he buys your a beer as thanks! Maybe even a Guinness.
