Thanks to his tax lawyers and accountants, and an assist from President Obama, Trump had essentially collected more than $90 million for failing.

To some, the pandemic exposed how much work had become like adult daycare. Everyone is expected to be in at a certain time. They’re expected to stay till a certain time. And it’s best to look busy in between.

You deserve someone who looks at you like you’re the only thing on this entire planet. I would move a million days off if you got to be happy.

Smith in his book and with his life is telling us how to live. Seek wisdom and virtue. Behave as if an impartial spectator is watching you. Use the idea of an impartial spectator to step outside yourself and see yourself as others see you. Use that vision to know yourself. Avoid the seductions of money and fame, for they will never satisfy. How to be virtuous is not so obvious, and that comes next. But I want to close this chapter with Peter Buffett, the man who ended up selling his Berkshire Hathaway stock for $90,000 and giving up the $100 million he could have had in order to pursue a career as a musician. A few years ago, Peter Buffett reflected on his decision to sell his Berkshire Hathaway stock to pursue his dreams in his memoir, Life Is What You Make It. He claims to have no regrets. But could a life as a successful musician possibly be worth giving up $100 million? Wouldn’t $100 million be even more pleasant? Then you ask yourself—what could he have with the extra millions? A nicer car? He could have a Lamborghini Veneno Roadster that retails for about $4 million. Or he could settle for the lovely Ferrari Spider, at $300,000; he could have a couple of those. He could have a mansion you and I can only imagine, anywhere in the world. Like Onassis, he could own an island or two rather than enduring the indignity of visiting an island in the Mediterranean, say, and having to share it with others while staying at a nice hotel. Could those physical pleasures possibly be worth sacrificing the life in music that he dreamed of and ultimately achieved? I think Peter Buffett got a bargain. He gave up $100 million and got something—hard as it is to imagine—that was even more precious. A good life. I think Adam Smith would agree with me.

Quelque huit millions de personnes sont ainsi soumises par une armée de trente mille cavaliers. Les historiens réfutent aujourd’hui les récits des contemporains sur les centaines de milliers de « païens sauvages », détruisant tout sur leur passage. La force principale des Mongols, leur « bombe atomique » est le cheval. Chaque cavalier se doit d’en posséder trois, un de rechange et un autre pour son bagage. Une armée, fût-elle de cent mille hommes (or, les chroniqueurs parlent de deux cent cinquante à trois cent mille), aurait besoin d’une quantité de chevaux telle qu’elle ne pourrait trouver à les nourrir que dans certaines régions bien délimitées de l’empire conquis. La première bataille opposant Russes et Tatars sur les bords de la Kalka s’achève, nous l’avons vu, par la victoire des envahisseurs. L’une des raisons en est le petit nombre des guerriers mongols (trente mille) qui donne l’illusion aux armées russo-polovtsiennes de la faiblesse ennemie. En conséquence, les princes n’ont pas besoin de s’unir ni de mener une action concertée. La faiblesse démographique des Mongols exclut, de la même façon, qu’ils occupent les territoires conquis.

one very useful thing I’ve learned from economics is to be skeptical of advice from stockbrokers about the latest stock that’s sure to skyrocket. Saving you from losses isn’t as exciting as promising you millions, but it’s still pretty valuable. But the real point is that economics is about something more important than money. Economics helps you understand that money isn’t the only thing that matters in life. Economics teaches you that making a choice means giving up something. And economics can help you appreciate complexity and how seemingly unrelated actions and people can become entangled. These insights and others are sprinkled throughout The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Money is nice, but knowing how to deal with it may be nicer. A student once told me that a professor of hers said that economics is the study of how to get the most out of life. That may strike some of you, even those of you who majored in economics, as an absurd claim. But life is all about choices. Getting the most out of life means choosing wisely and well. And making choices—being aware of how choosing one road means not taking another, being aware of how my choices interact with the choices of others—that’s the essence of economics. If

These days, though, it’s not tigers, bears, and wolves that our mind warns us about—it’s losing our job, being rejected, getting a speeding ticket, embarrassing ourselves in public, getting cancer, or a million and one other common worries. As a result, we all spend a lot of time worrying about things that, more often than not, never happen.

Unknown for decades, we discovered that Donald would never repay at least $15 million of the money he borrowed from his father in those years. In essence, his father had given him the capital to launch a business and not received equity in those businesses. In the language of the tax code, Fred had given his son taxable gifts masquerading as loans, a likely tax fraud that went unnoticed.

For the year The Art of the Deal was published, Trump’s core businesses reported a negative income of $45.4 million. His stock bluffs and inherited wealth had produced greater results than his business acumen. He reported $25.4 million in short-term capital gains, mostly, if not entirely, from the stocks he sold after letting investors believe he might take over the company. And he reported another $9.3 million in long-term capital gains, which appeared to be almost entirely from his father’s efforts. And despite his promise to donate royalties from the book, the records we obtained showed that he reported no charitable contributions through at least 1995.

Every year millions of American men buy televisions in order to watch football. The various companies that produce TVs are aware of this, and try to run advertisements for their contraptions that feature games. Unfortunately, the NFL only sells footage to its official television company. That means if, say, Zenith is the NFL’s TV of choice, Panasonic, Sony, and myriad other entities can’t use league action. “So every year—every single year—I get calls from the companies, wanting to purchase USFL stock footage,” Cohen said. “I averaged about $100,000 a year for a long time. Dom was right.” Don’t blink, or you might miss ubiquitous snippets of USFL game footage. That game Julie Taylor was watching in the student lounge on Friday Night Lights? Blitz-Bandits at Tampa Stadium. The “Bubble Bowl” game in the SpongeBob SquarePants episode “Band Geeks”? Bandits-Showboats at the Liberty Bowl. A Scientology advertisement stars Anthony Carter scoring a touchdown for the Panthers; Russ Feingold, a United States senator running for reelection in 2010, ran a spot with Gamblers receivers Clarence Verdin and Gerald McNeil dancing in the end zone;
