Good afternoon from Puerto Rico. We've had a streak of amazing weather, and today is beautiful again. I remember when I first moved to Los Angeles from Chicago and thought that winter couldn’t be any better. Being able to comfortably go for a night swim or lounge outside without a jacket in the winter here …
Back to Work
Another solid week here in PR. I was all excited to blog about it yesterday (Sunday) morning, but I went paddleboarding, had a great coffee, started reading, and then it was evening. I’m currently in the middle of my normal “workday”, but getting this out felt more important than my immediate research. When reflecting on …
Happy New Year!
It’s Sunday here in Puerto Rico, and I’m finishing out the last few hours of a great week. For the first time since I can remember, I gave myself permission this past week to take a “vacation” from trading research. I still check my crypto trading twice a day to make sure it’s going smoothly, …
Merry Christmas + Mega Update
(Disclaimer: super long post where I explain my new focus and purpose of the blog) A few weeks ago I came to the conclusion that I should write a final blog post saying my goodbyes to the blog, keep it up for a week, and then take my blog down. I’ve hardly written anything over …
Back From a Little Hiatus
When I admitted that my blog production would be a bit more intermittent, I didn’t realize that it could turn into a months long break between posts. For a while I didn’t feel like I had anything to report, or I had something that felt pressing when I thought of blogging, but eventually I just …
August in Utah
I’m writing you from a cozy coffee shop in Utah overlooking the mountains. It goes without saying now, but my blog schedule is likely to continue to be sporadic. I wish I could produce these without any effort, and even though the quality and level of writing appear that I’m not trying, it actually takes …
One Month in Utah and Random Thoughts
I’m still in Utah, closing in on a month as of today. It’s everything I could want for a summer residency: beautiful mountain views/fresh air/amazing hiking, good weather, good coffee, a great gym, nice people, and the right amount of infrastructure (Whole Foods, etc.) that I don’t feel lacking in any first world convenience. I …
Utah
I am currently in Utah, about 30 minutes outside of Salt Lake City. Coming from a heavy quarantine/initial stages of a sweaty summer in Puerto Rico, it feels like I’ve moved into the Ritz Carlton. I’m residing in my friend Ari’s amazing childhood home, and it’s been a great few weeks. It’s odd to leave …
Trading Thoughts and Recommendations
I finally made some solid initial summer travel plans, starting with a one-way ticket to Utah on June 11. I’ve been planning to visit my friend Jeff in Montreal and then head to Sweden for the summer for a long time, but closed borders changed things. Fortunately my friend Ari in Utah has offered to …
Bored With the Status Quo
I’m finally genuinely bored of procrastinating and waiting for the quarantine world to change before I make progress in my own life. I did my new normal Monday workout last week of a few sets of handstand holds, pushups, and rubber band rows that is definitely better than nothing, but a fraction of the intensity …
