I had been toying with the idea of binning my LinkedIn profile since it seems to consist of little more than people with odd titles posting random motivational pictures and the occasional bit of crap about their cat. But it does seem to be the gift that keeps on giving in terms of the nonsense…
I am always interested in the relationship between the level of compensation for a CEO and their level of shareholder return. Full graphic here – howmuch
In 1975, researchers at Stanford invited a group of undergraduates to take part in a study about suicide. They were presented with pairs of suicide notes.

In a House hearing on monetary policy last week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made a telling confession in response to a question from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). The topic was the so-called natural rate of unemployment: the idea, believed by many economists and policymakers, that there is a rate at which unemployment could get so low…

Co-author, Dr Sonya Britt-Lutter said: “Arguments about money are the top predictor of divorce. It’s not children, in-laws or anything else. It’s money – for both men and women.” The study controlled for income, debt and…
