Many financial advisors who launch solo advisory firms do so with the intention of adding more employees once the firm becomes big enough to support them.

Fascinating chart from Visual Capitalist showing the history of housing prices in the United States. I recall the 1990 Home Price recession — I was too broke to afford a condo, but I knew lots of recent grad school friends who took high-paying jobs and bought a place in the 1980s; more than a few were freaked out about falling prices. The issue with rising prices is the ongoing shortage of single-family homes relative to both population and job locations.

This morning, the WSJ reported that “Consumers expect to see 4.1% inflation a year from now, the lowest such reading in two years and down sharply from its recent peak of 6.8%.” There are some who believe this is good news, but as we pointed out in May , it’s a meaningless, lagging survey.
