“In terms of what happened over that hiatus that I took, I just rested. I spent that time with my family, during their really formative years, and enjoyed that, and I messed with pills and new medications that help me to deal with dyskinesia and some other things I was struggling with, that I don't have as much now because of medication to counter the side effects. So, it just seemed like the right time to do it.” YearsHelpingSidesTermDealsStruggleHappenedEffectsMy FamilyEnjoyedHelp MeRight TimePillsMedicationSide EffectsFormative YearsHiatus Author:Michael J.

“Maybe some people got sick, but what I saw was people applauding the effects. When the helicopter zombie stood up, people applauded.

“I have concluded that most PhD economists under appraise the power of the common-stock-based "wealth effect," under current extreme conditions... "Wealth effects" involve mathematical puzzles that are not nearly so well worked out as physics theories and never can be... What has happened in Japan over roughly the last ten years has shaken up academic economics, as it obviously should, creating strong worries about recession from "wealth effects" in reverse.” ShouldWellsStrongWealthCommonWorryHappenedConditionsEffectsTheoryCreatingEconomicsCurrentsExtremesPhysicsMathematicalAcademicReversePuzzlesEconomistRecessionsPhdsAppraise Author:Charlie Munger

“What happened to the Soviet Union happened mainly for domestic reasons. It was a failure of the model based on a command economy and dictatorship. The rejection of freedom and democracy, the decisionmaking monopoly of one party, and the monopoly of one ideology all had a chilling effect on the country. That model turned out to be incapable of making structural changes. It did not open up ways for initiative and was overly centralized.” WayCountryReasonPartyEconomyDemocracyHappenedEffectsModelsUnionsCommandIdeologyRejectionSovietInitiativeDictatorshipIncapableSoviet UnionChillMonopolyCommand Economy Author:Mikhail Gorbachev
