Labubus are dumb, but so am I On scarcity marketing, parenting, and momentary joy.

People are losing their minds for Labubus, the latest collectible craze out of Japan. A life sized version went for $170,000 at auction! This week, Heather explains why we go after these “dumb” fleeting trends.

• Contribution
• Power
• Risk

From them, we will show you how to work together to form an equitable, loving, and lasting financial future together.

We wrote a book on money and relationships.

BREAKING: Trump blames President Hoover for stock market ‘overhang’.

Five things I could do without (and five things I can't) You can identify your priorities before your backs are against the wall.

We’re in a risk-on season of life. But even now, we’re asking: what could we live without? And what can’t we imagine letting go? Before you’re forced to choose, it helps to know.

Amazon: Tariffs are making things more expensive.

White House: No they aren’t.

Amazon: *shows prices with tariffs*

White House: This is a hostile and political act!

So, like what’s going to happen first? A massive trade announcement that sends markets ripping, or reports of empty store shelves that send them lower? Because I feel like that’s what we’re all waiting for.

There are so many things to comment on, but this one drives me crazy. In business and life, how you speak to someone matters. Calling people names and talking down is the easiest way to signal you’re an ineffective leader. And justifying it signals something far worse.

So the Art of the Deal is letting every country on earth know that if they raise interest rates by dumping US Treasuries, we will fold.

We finally won. We beat ourselves.

My Wife: Did we lose the house?

Me: BE COOL!

I’m starting to think this trade war was a bad idea.

How does your partner cope when the sky is falling? And how do you?

Social media is my coping mechanism. I tell silly jokes and post memes to deal with the uncertainty of the markets and life. My wife, is different. I’m sure you are, too.

A must read.

Who did this?

I have announced the following tariffs:

Wife: 50%
Kid 1: 30%
Kid 2: 25%
Mother-in-law: 100%
Dog: 0%

Be careful of money “experts” who try to convince you that their way of doing things is the best way. You’re probably just being sold something. Most decisions around money are completely subjective. Do what works for you and plan accordingly.

That was a brutal recession. Congrats to everyone who made it through.

And on the seventh day, God tariffed Adam and Eve 25%.

Sadly, gender roles are alive and well.

The haters said a trade war would tank the market.

They were correct.

Honesty, great call by the haters.

Q&A: I've tried everything to get my wife more involved with our finances. How can I get her to the table? A new reader question on The Joint Account.

You wouldn’t believe how many guys I know who struggle to get their wives to the table to talk about money. It’s a thing. Trust me. This week I wrote about what you can do when nothing seems to be working.

My portfolio’s pronouns are was/were.

How can you not be excited for the week ahead? Who are we going to tariff next? Who is going to tariff us? Perhaps we’ll invade a country. Maybe we’ll rename the Atlantic Ocean. Anything can happen!

Daylight saving is not enough. You need to be daylight investing.

“How would you describe the current economy?”

Me:

Hello, Sharks. I am seeking $10M so I can stop working.

Oh. Glad to know I can produce bangers across social media platforms. I’m dumpster hopping, baby!
