Finance

Welcome to Capital Revelations, our platform for education and commentary regarding the issues we are passionate about.

We expect to write a short piece whenever inspiration prompts us to do so, probably once or twice a month. Expect the topics to mirror the prominent topics of our website, but through the lens of the three primary forms of capital -  human (intellectual and social), physical, and financial. We hope to share what experience, conversation, and literature have revealed to us regarding the beneficial utilization of the various forms of capital we all possess. And of course, we welcome any comments or feedback you might have. Enjoy!

A Strong Economy that Benefits Everyone

The economy has made considerable progress toward our dual-mandate objectives.

  The economy has made considerable progress toward our dual-mandate objectives. – Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell   The first quarter of 2024 concluded with another solid gain for global equities, driven in part by ongoing U.S. equity market leadership.

And ultimately, though, there’s so much uncertainty around these things.

  And ultimately, though, there’s so much uncertainty around these things. –  Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell   Financial markets struggled during the third quarter. Resilient economic activity, elevated equity valuations and a re-evaluation of the Federal Reserve’s determination to maintain restrictive monetary policy pushed bond yields up and both stock and bond prices down....

Our goal is to help Main Street, not Wall Street.

  Janet Yellen’s quote is the basis for our first quarter Global Economic and Markets Review, in which we focus on the nexus between Main Street and Wall Street, the divergence between what bond investors seem to expect and what equity investors seem to expect, and why Janet Yellen’s statement is important for both over...

Financial Exploitation of Elderly Adults

Earlier this year, we wrote a piece about the large and rapidly growing scourge of elderly financial abuse. And while we were only able to briefly introduce the issue itself, we promised to dive deeper into financial exploitation, financial fraud, and investment fraud in future pieces.

Making Sense of the CARES Act Program for Small Business – Hint: It’s a First-Come, First-Served Program

Covid19 is a big problem for many small businesses, which often lack the financial resources to withstand a prolonged revenue slump. In an effort to ensure the Covid19 outbreak doesn’t become an economic depression, the U.S. Federal Government passed the CARES Act, which includes a $349 billion provision for small businesses, defined as those with...

Through the eyes of a 10-year-old – The Fed’s Policy of Financial Repression is Suddenly Personal

I’ve written about the deleterious effects the Fed’s interest-rate setting policy is having on savers. Of course, as a saver, I have personal experience with the ramifications. But this weekend, my experience is about to get a whole lot more personal. About a month ago, my 10-year-old son begged me to take him to the...

Which is better, giving your children an allowance, or paying them to do chores?

When our clients with young children ask us whether they should be giving their children an allowance or paying them to do chores, our answer is almost always “Yes”. The question is most often posed as an “either/or”, but in fact raising financially literate and capable children is a “both/and” answer. Allowances and payment for...

Why do we invest?

Why do we invest? A cursory review of popular financial media and financial industry marketing materials would lead one to believe that we invest because we want to “beat the market”. Whether it’s an index fund or other “passive” strategy claiming that the market can’t be beat (if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em), or...
