Crash Expert: “This Looks Like 1929” → 71,105 Diversifying Here
Mark Spitznagel, who made $1B in a single day during the 2015 flash crash, warned markets are mimicking 1929. Seems extreme but we did just see the worst quarter for the S&P since 2022.
So it’s not so surprising that Vanguard and Goldman Sachs forecasted 5% and 3% annual S&P returns respectively for 2024-2034.
Late last year, Apollo’s chief economist Torsten Slok put it this way: "expect zero in return in the S&P 500 over the coming decade."
Almost no one knows this, but postwar and contemporary art appreciated 10.2% annually with near-zero correlation to equities from 1995–2025 overall.*
And sure… billionaires like Bezos can make headlines at auction, but what about the rest of us?

From pizza to poke: One Kernersville restaurateur's unexpected journey
An Italian pizzeria owner in Kernersville has opened a Hawaiian poke restaurant in a former Subway location, bringing a taste of his native Italy's coastal cuisine to the Triad. Vincenzo Parascandolo, who runs Amalfi's Pizza, expanded after the Subway franchisee next door closed, using recipes from a friend in Italy. Mr. Poke offers customizable bowls with sushi-grade fish, cooked proteins, and a variety of toppings in a fast-casual setting1.

From Pouring Drinks to Winning Big: Bartender's 'Wheel of Fortune' Dream Comes True
A local bartender is still processing the shock of winning big on a popular game show. The contestant walked away from the set of "Wheel of Fortune" with $78,000 in cash and a special bonus: a classic Corvette once owned by comedian Jay Leno.
The winner, who works behind the bar in the community, said the experience felt surreal from the moment the puzzle was solved. For many viewers at home, seeing someone from their own neighborhood hit the jackpot on national television brings a sense of shared excitement.
The Corvette, a piece of automotive history tied to Leno's famous car collection, adds a unique twist to the prize package. The bartender plans to keep the car as a reminder of that incredible night, while the cash winnings will help secure a more stable future.
Friends and regulars at the bar where the winner works have been celebrating the news, proud to know someone who turned a spin of the wheel into a life-changing moment. The story serves as a reminder that luck can strike when you least expect it, especially when you are just a regular person trying to make ends meet.4
