The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett Key Takeaways  Saving too much is just as bad as spending too much, from a psychological perspective; being too far on either end of this spectrum means that money is controlling you  Money amplifies who you already are: It will not cure anxiety or depression, but if you're already happy, it will enhance your life Saving money is the equivalent of purchasing independence A reasonable savings goal: enough that if you lost your job, your car broke down, or your roof needed replacing, you could handle it without losing sleepYour feeling of wealth is what you have minus what you want – and it is so easy to ignore the latter There are two ways to get wealthier: (1) Sacrifice more or (2) Want less There is an optimal level of intelligence for being successful as an investor: The beginner and the Wall Street veteran both invest in index funds; only the midwit tries to beat the market Be smart enough to understand the basics, but not so smart that they become boring to you The biggest risk is always unknowable: The worst economic story that happens in the next ten years will be something that no one is talking about today If no one could see how you are living, how would you choose to live? Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMorgan Housel, global expert on personal finance, shares powerful lessons on Warren Buffett's hidden struggles, Elon Musk's sacrifices, money trauma and financial habits, how to invest wisely, and the psychology behind saving, spending, and success.  Morgan Housel is a partner at Collaborative Fund, former columnist for The Wall Street Journal, and a speaker on investing, saving, spending, and financial independence.

Imagine trading a financial "masterpiece" for an unfinished project. That's exactly what Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC)—a major Japanese banking giant—did when it walked away from its passive stake in the "flawless" Kotak Mahindra Bank to become the largest shareholder in the once-battered Yes Bank.This is the story of a classic finance dilemma: Influence over Inertia. While Kotak offered the satisfaction of owning a quality, "safer compounding machine", SMBC held "prestige without power," lacking boardroom representation or a say in strategy.Now, as a "co-author" in Yes Bank, SMBC has voting rights, two board seats, and the ability to integrate its deep roster of Japanese clients into a domestic Indian network.In this episode, we unpack the high-stakes bet:• Why did SMBC trade a premium slice of a finished franchise for a "deep-value setup" in a bank that is still rebuilding?• How does gaining governance levers and board oversight accelerate a turnaround and build market confidence?• We examine the potential for "outsized payoff" if SMBC successfully implements Japanese precision in risk teams and helps raise the average credit quality of the bank.Discover why, for strategic investors, planting a flag in a bank that can still change shape is worth the risk of volatility

I denne episode af Rig på Viden taler vi med Christoph Junge, Head of Fund Investments hos EIFO, om en af de mest aktuelle trends blandt institutionelle investorer: illikvide aktiver som private equity, infrastruktur og private credit.Vi dykker ned i, hvorfor disse aktiver er blevet så populære, hvad der ligger i begreber som illikviditetspræmie og rebalanceringspræmie, og hvordan de kan skabe højere risikojusterede afkast. Christoph forklarer også, hvordan volatilitet og det såkaldte “volatility drag” påvirker langsigtede investorafkast.Derudover diskuterer vi hans paper Trade-off mellem illikviditetspræmie og rebalanceringspræmie, hvor simulationer viser, at porteføljer med op til 40-45% illikvide aktiver kan opnå højere Sharpe Ratio – og vi undersøger, om dette er realistisk for danske pensionskasser.Lyt med, hvis du vil forstå hvordan man med en smart allokering kan optimere sine investeringer, og hvilke misforståelser der ofte gør, at investorer undervurderer potentialet i illikvide aktiver.Episoden er sponsoreret af CBS MBA og artiklen vi taler om er skrevet i finansinvest.Følg os på LinkedIn:André: www.linkedin.com/in/andréthormann/Intro musik:Deadly Roulette by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3625-deadly-rouletteLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Jesus makes it clear that following Him comes at a great cost—denying ourselves, taking up our cross, and surrendering our lives to Him. Yet, this cost is nothing compared to the reward: true life, eternal hope, and the joy of being with Christ forever. In Matthew 16:24–28 and Romans 12:1, we see that discipleship is a call to sacrifice, but also a promise of something far greater than we could ever imagine.If you enjoyed this sermon please consider subscribing.CONNECT WITH US Instagram: www.instagram.com/humeridgechurch Facebook: www.facebook.com/humeridgechurch YouTube: www.youtube.com/humeridgechurchHave you made a decision to follow Jesus?

Today Lee Sharkey of Goodfire joins The Cognitive Revolution to discuss his research on parameter decomposition methods that break down neural networks into interpretable computational components, exploring how his team's "stochastic parameter decomposition" approach addresses the limitations of sparse autoencoders and offers new pathways for understanding, monitoring, and potentially steering AI systems at the mechanistic level. Check out our sponsors: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Shopify. Shownotes below brought to you by Notion AI Meeting Notes - try one month for free at ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://⁠⁠notion.com/lp/nathan Parameter vs. Activation Decomposition: Traditional interpretability methods like Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) focus on analyzing activations, while parameter decomposition focuses on understanding the parameters themselves - the actual "algorithm" of the neural network. No "True" Decomposition: None of the decompositions (whether sparse dictionary learning or parameter decomposition) are objectively "right" because they're all attempting to discretize a fundamentally continuous object, inevitably introducing approximations. Tradeoff in Interpretability: There's a balance between reconstruction loss and causal importance - as you decompose networks more, reconstruction loss may worsen, but interpretability might improve up to a certain point. Potential Unlearning Applications: Parameter decomposition may make unlearning more straightforward than with SAEs because researchers are already working in parameter space and can directly modify vectors that perform specific functions. Function Detection vs. Input Direction: A function like "deception" might manifest in many different input directions that SAEs struggle to identify as a single concept, while parameter decomposition might better isolate such functionality. Knowledge Extraction Goal: A key aim is to extract knowledge from models by understanding how they "think," especially for tasks where models demonstrate superhuman capabilities.

There’s no tradeoff between net zero and growth in the UK. That’s the conventional wisdom and the position of the current government. But what if it’s the decline in available electricity that’s causing productivity, GDP and living standards to stagnate? Research from Kallum Pickering, chief economist at Peel Hunt, suggests there may indeed be a connection. He joins Merryn Somerset Webb and senior reporter John Stepek on Merryn Talks Money to explain that the rise of power-hungry artificial intelligence and the UK’s renewed focus on defense may mean the government should reexamine its energy policies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Derek Moore and Shane Skinner get into how investors are looking at high dividend ETFs the wrong way as total return vs distribution yield is what matters. Plus, how to think about how much in dividends you can take out knowing its total return that drives the probability of assets lasting during distribution phase. Later, they look at correlations between different asset classes over the years and ask whether today they are way more positively correlated. They then delve into concentration today in stock indexes vs prior periods. You might be surprised by who were the highest waited stocks throughout the years.    Dividend Yield vs Total Return Implied volatility in the options for Opendoor Sequence of return risks during withdrawals Tradeoff between premium selling and upside capture Ordinary income vs capital gains and losses Can investors really live off dividends?

The Daily Poll Question is a thought-provoking query each day at Smerconish.com on a political, social, or other human interest issue. Entirely non-scientific, it always begins a great conversation. Michael talks about it in this podcast each weekday.   

A tug-of-war is brewing between building America's shipbuilding capacity and maintaining the competitiveness of U.S. agricultural exports. As Mike Steenhoek, Executive Director of the Soy Transportation Coalition, explains, this tension stems from recent USTR actions addressing Chinese dominance in global shipbuilding—a position China achieved through 25 years of focused development to capture over 50% of vessel production worldwide.While promoting domestic shipbuilding represents a worthy national goal, Steenhoek argues the implementation timeline creates impossible expectations for critical export industries. "I'd rather have government policy be predictably good than sporadically great," he notes, highlighting how short-term trade disruptions often lead to permanent shifts in global supply chains. When the 2018-2019 trade dispute with China redirected agricultural purchases toward Brazil, it accelerated Chinese investment in Brazilian infrastructure—investments that remain in place regardless of future U.S.-China relations.The immediate effects of current policies are already visible at American ports. The Port of Los Angeles projects a 35% decrease in vessel arrivals compared to last year, with retail inventory shortages expected within 5-7 weeks. For agricultural exporters, the situation threatens both immediate access to shipping capacity and long-term market relationships. When fees remain on vessels both built and operated by Chinese entities—vessels that currently transport substantial volumes of U.S. grain—the available shipping pool shrinks while export demand remains constant, inevitably driving up transportation costs. As Steenhoek aptly summarizes using an aviation metaphor: building domestic shipbuilding capacity requires a runway length appropriate for takeoff, not an aircraft carrier deck that sends the economy plunging into the ocean.Subscribe now to hear more conversations examining how transportation and trade policies affect the competitiveness of American agriculture.

Things Discussed: Signing Day: Got the most talent on offense since…1998? Down the list: OL: Two of the highest-ranked OTs in the history of the program, Gach was a Priority 1 for the program, Strayhorn is a center. RB: Jasper Parker the sites just missed; poorer man's Adrian Peterson. M thinks DJ is healthy. WR: Marsh was a big pull vs heavy hitters, Year 1 player. Browder needs development but Junior Hemingway upside. Washington is tall and can move well. TE: Owens is a Bredeson, really hurts that they missed on Olesh. DL: We love the heavy-handed build-a-bears that Esposito recruits. Remember his WMU guys? Moten and Patterson are going to be those guys too. Lou is convinced Benny Patterson is the guy. Kanka is a Godin. Marshall was a Priority and a big win. Can't expect them to get the scouting coup of the century with Graham and Grant every year but they can scout and now they can win the guys they scouted. Basketball: Every guy is good with a tradeoff, and that tradeoff is turnovers, e.g. look at the defense that Roddy Gayle (and Pippen) played on Ace Bailey. Rutgers: We got a break by missing Harper, who just shredded Illinois. Oregon game: the mental errors are baked in at this point, like they're not going to score at the rim as well as you want them to. Also baked in is the fact that they switch everything and play drop coverage, so your Shelstad types who make 50%+ of other twos after attacking a Goldin or Wolf are going to score. Sugarplum vision of a top-3 seed and winning the B10 is probably gone. All but one of their remaining games (all but Rutgers at home) are Kenpom A (top-50) tier, IE Q1 opportunities.

In this episode, we dive into the fascinating political situation in El Salvador, where President Nayib Bukele—who has led the country's transformation from the murder capital of the world to perhaps the safest country in the Americas—is implementing anti-democratic policies with seemingly broad public support.
