We’ve been discussing passkeys a fair bit here in recent weeks, and by coincidence last week the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre released a new paper and guidance on the topic. General guidance document: Passkeys: what you need to know Press release: NCSC: Leave passwords in the past – passkeys are the future Technical paper: Comparing the security properties of traditional user credentials and FIDO2 credentials for personal use Below are a handful of quotes from the […]

I recently shared an article on the basics of building wealth. A list of fundamentals to come back to when you’re starting out or when you feel stuck. This is the companion piece. Because as Aristotle said: “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” And you can’t truly know yourself if you’re always chasing external things. Wealth without wisdom is just money. This list is about the other side of the equation. Wisdom is […]

Vanguard has a new article 50 years. 50 facts. Indexing since 1976. with some interesting bits for investing enthusiasts. I feel like younger folks simply know index investing as the default for essentially every single 401k plan out there. Most own index funds without even thinking about it. However, 50 years ago, it was called “Bogle’s Folly” when a young Jack Bogle went against Wall Street and introduced his index fund to everyday people. Even […]

This is the first time the U.S. will host the games […]

In this week’s stock market outlook, Joel Wenger examines the current market trend, price performance, and headline risks.

Want excellent investment advice? Buy low, sell high. A desirable but overly simplistic strategy involves buying shares at a low price and selling them when the price is higher, resulting in a profit. The problem with such advice is that you’ll have to know when to call a bottom in down markets, so you can make purchases, or when the market is peaking to make a profit. For many, emotions and stress levels cause us […]

The good news is that it is easy to build a very good Canadian blue chip stock portfolio. In fact if you buy enough of ’em and exhibit very good behaviour (buy and hold and add) you will likely beat the TSX Composite over time. Well, if history repeats you’ll thrash the TSX. You can also shape the Canadian blue chip portfolio to be more defensive; that is to say a lower volatility model. There […]

If you’re a creative, chances are you’ve been told this line at least once: “You’re so talented… You should totally sell this!” But here’s the thing: turning your creativity into cash doesn’t have to mean starving artist vibes, selling out, or waiting for your big break. You can get paid now, on your terms, with your talent, using side hustles that fit your lifestyle and your artistic brain. Here are 5 undeniable side hustles for […]

Dwight Eisenhower left behind a big legacy as a president and the liberator of Europe during World War 2. Did you know this iconic person was from a small town in the Midwest called Abilene, Kansas? After visiting the town myself, here’s how you can enjoy Eisenhower’s Legacy in Abilene with things to see and do revolving around the president while in the area.  Pose with the World’s Biggest “I Like Ike” Button  Buttons are a huge thing in America, used in political campaigns, as part of “my first time” in a certain destination, and in other quirky ways to announce something. Part of the campaign that the Eisenhower team did during his presidential bid was to make “I like Ike” buttons. For those who don’t know, Ike is Eisenhower’s nickname, and during his presidential campaign, thousands of these buttons were made. The largest Ike button is designed like the original buttons used on Eisenhower’s campaign trail. “I Like Ike” is an iconic campaign that started as a commercial advertisement and went viral (well, in those days, was virality even a thing?).  The world’s biggest “I Like Ike Button” is located in Eisenhower Park, right in front of the downtown area. The button is available to view 24 hours a day and is completely free to the public for enjoyment.  More Kansas articles: Guide to Tanganyika Wildlife Park Experiences Mural of Ike Eisenhower on a silo in Abilene, Kansas Eisenhower Park and Rose Garden  This park is known as the place where Eisenhower announced his candidacy for President of the United States. In the modern era, the park is home to a skate park, a pool, a fountain, a rose garden, a few walking trails, and the World’s Largest Belt Buckle.  The World’s Largest Belt Buckle is a quirky and fun stop, where one can just park off the street and take a photo of the buckle. If you are feeling more adventurous, you can get on the stairs to get a higher view of the buckle and see the details on the front and the back.  The front’s details are awesome, and you can see that the city has put a lot of effort in this buckle to make it as realistic as a small buckle.
