If we can pay our housing bills, still purchase fresh produce and aren't "car poor" (the latter refers to those outsized monthly payments on an auto loan) we're doing great.

The secret to happiness in aging is this: Lower expectations. There are some things we can no longer do and experiences we might no longer afford to buy. But here we still are. 

91 could be becoming the new 79.

Success is a mental game. Failure comes from being done in by the “committee” in your head.

Together, we reprogram your thinking. Then we change your story. And, unleash success.

America Not Hiring in 2026: Back to Golden Age of Solopreneurs?

 For hiring, 2025 was a brutal year to search for a job. The Wall Street Journal reports that 2026 could be worse: "At a gathering of CEOs in Midtown Manhattan this month organized by the Yale School of Management, 66% of leaders surveyed said they planned to either fire workers or maintain the size of their existing teams next year. Only a third indicated they planned to hire." The WSJ adds that pullback from adding manpower could be temporary. But given shareholders' demand for cost-efficiency and the continual improvements in AI, chronic unemployment could become standard. However, there is a solution. An old-fashioned one. That's becoming a solopreneur, that is setting up your own business without partners or employees. The model dates back to ancient times.  The golden age of the solo business owner in America had been from the late 1800s to about the mid 1920s.  There had been a wave of immigrants, discrimination against them and few jobs. They drove pushcarts ...

Global Gasp: Donald Trump Tells Off Big Banking

In a virtual back-and-forth Donald Trump does a stunner. At the World Economic Forum in Davos Bank of America head Brian Moynihan conducts a casual Q&A with the new President who's being looped in on large screen. During that, Trump tells Moynihan, along with JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, to stop blocking conservatives. That is, there's an accusation that Big Banking hasn't been accepting accounts from conservatives. One could feel a global gasp. Here is more from Bloomberg.

Business leaders, used to indirectness in communications, will have to come up with a new way of conversing with the president in public.  Low on hope about finding, holding, or moving on to better work?  Getting that back is the first step. Then you and I, as your career coach, move on to diagnosing what's in the way, trying out the solutions and creating the communications you need. Free consultat...

Mr. Paul Weiss Goes to Washington

In college, backgrounders state that Brad Karp, the long-time chair of law firm Paul Weiss, toyed with the idea of a career path in politics. The specific focus was about running for Congress. Instead, though, he accepted admission to Harvard Law School (turned down the one to Yale) and that was that. Now, during the current crisis for law firms, under comprehensive attack by the Trump administration, Karp seems to be showcasing his inner politico. The guy is a smart strategist. Semafor reports that Karp has gone to Washington. There his objective seems to be to create lines of communication with a power force which, as Steve Bannon puts it, wants his firm and other elite firms out of business. Already Paul Weiss has lost one client as a result of an Executive Order. One way he is trying to connect, notes Semafor:  "Karp ... is discussing a particular path back into the administration’s good graces: helping the White House respond to alleged instances of antisemitism that came...
