The great lesson of investing history is not that bad things don't happen because they do. It's that the market has recovered from all of them.

Stay the course!

If you only followed social media (and some headlines), you’d think younger generations are falling behind.

The data says otherwise.

Progress hasn’t stopped, just slowed. Each generation has still seen higher real income than the one before, even after accounting for rising education costs.

"We find that Millennials had a real median household income that was 20% higher than that of the previous generation, a slowdown from the growth rate of the Silent Generation (36%) and Baby Boomers (26%), but similar to that of Generation X (16%). The slowdown for younger generations largely resulted from stalled growth in work hours among women. Progress for Millennials younger than 30 has also remained robust, though largely due to greater reliance on their parents. Additionally, lifetime income gains for younger generations far outweigh their higher educational costs."

In a matter of weeks, markets can be hit with politics, war, economic surprises, and wild price swings all at once.

But this chaos isn’t rare. It’s the norm.

Fascinating study showing that money can buy happiness, but not while you're earning it!

“The more people earn, the happier they tend to be. But when they are actually at work, more money is not associated with greater happiness.”

More money can buy a bigger house or a better car, but it can’t buy a nicer boss, says Wharton’s Matt Killingsworth.
