- NYT hosted annual Dealbook summit, where SBF was interviewed live for over an hour and said things like “I’ve had a bad month”. It’s surprising that he would agree to talk for that long on air given what’s been happening….Maybe his strategy is to try to endear himself to the public? I honestly am not sure what the upside is here…
- More details emerging about what was happening behind the scenes when FTX first started imploding
- 263k jobs added in November and jobless rate remains low at 3.7%
- Austan Goolsbee, former economic advisor to Obama, named as next President of Chicago Fed. (His class was one of my favorites during the MBA.)
- FinTechs oversaw a high number of fraudulent COVID/PPP loans
- Trouble at crypto firm Genesis? Allegedly some customers say they are owed $1.8B
Etc.
- New York is searching for a rat czar to take care of its growing rat problem
- World Cup pictures so far. It’s been such a fun one to watch so far.
- 🎥 Knives Out: Glass Onion (the sequel to the fantastic original) was also pretty fun
- 📺 The White Lotus season 2 has made me look forward to Sunday evenings. And the reddit thread conspiracy theories have been just as good.

Well the FTX fallout continues. We’ve learned some new details, like what their balance sheet actually looked like. Liabilities are customer deposits. As you can see from below, it’s not surprising that FTX had issues when people started wanting their deposits back. The liabilities greatly outweighted liquid assets. Illiquid assets are hard to sell on short notice and at full value, so all that can cover customer deposits ($9B) in the short term are liquid assets ($900M). $9B is a lot bigger than $900M.
Other companies continue to put out reassurances. Some have announced pauses on withdrawals. It will be a long time until the industry recovers from this impact.
But I think it’s also important to remember that technology that powers crypto, blockchain, will continue to forge ahead. Crypto is just a small use case.
Money & Crypto
- The Taylor Swift ticket debacle on Ticketmaster last week highlights some of the issues with tickets. There’s been rumblings about Live Nation and Ticketmaster being a monopoly and exerting too much control, which I get because it’s crazy how many fees you incur when buying tickets. There’s a great John Oliver episode about it from earlier this year. (Isn’t it amazing how John Oliver seems to be ahead every issue?!)
- More layoffs: Amazon, Carvana
- Elizabeth Holmes, of Theranos fraud, is sentenced to 11 years in prison
-
This is kinda amazing. Someone on Visual Capitalist tracked the price of different things on the dark web. Would not have guessed that physical documents go for the most!
-
Who is Caroline Ellison, CEO of Alameda, who had helped run the company with SBF?
- Matt Levine, Bloomberg columnist, wrote a great piece analyzing the problems with MoviePass’s money business. (I meant to include it last week but got sidetracked with FTX. His coverage of FTX has been excellent btw.).
He writes “There was a period in the late 2010s when it was fashionable to think that the way to build a successful company was by losing money on every transaction. You would create a desirable product, offer it at an uneconomically discounted price, and get lots and lots of customers very quickly. This growth in customers — even money-losing customers — was the point. That growth would, for one thing, attract lots of venture-capital investment, because VCs seemed to care more about rapid customer growth than they did about unit economics.”
This is exactly what is coming to haunt a lot of startups. They built on growth and not profitability. In economic downturns, you can’t rely on funding as your source of profitability anymore, and it’s going to take out a lot of businesses.
Etc.
- Why everything looks the same? Once you read this article, you can’t unsee how a lot of products and marketing all looks the same. The author calls it ‘blanding’ and it is EVERYWHERE.
- Alcohol banned last minute at World Cup and World Cup pictures so far
- Grammy’s nomination list announced

FTX, a crypto exchange, had become a media darling. Its founder, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), is a 30-year old who resides in the Bahamas.
I’ve been trying to figure what would be the ‘optimal’ allocation across types of investments should be. There’s a lot of theories out there, but frankly, it’s hard to figure out which one to follow.
IRS adjusts brackets and standard deductions for 2023 (Market Watch) and 401K contributions increase in 2023 (NYT)
“Dude on your newsletter, I just found out the options for funding your HSA and letting it grow. You can allocate its investments just like a 401k and you can use it for health related spending forever!
“Do you have thoughts on HSA vs. FSA? I think I’m going to enroll in an HSA because I can pay for therapy out of it but was wondering if you had more nuanced info I should consider?”
The example in the book is about food choices in a grocery store, but it struck me that this is exactly what people face in personal finance too. In the 100 conversations project, the #1 thing I keep hearing is about how people know they should be doing more to invest and proactively manage their finances, but there are too many voices to listen to and choices to make
“1. How high could they go if Fed keeps pushing rates? Wonder what they got to back when mortgage rates hit 18%
What do you do if you don’t want to invest in oil stocks, but the energy sector is one of the best performing this year?
In US, some inflation easing in gas and other categories (WSJ), but in EU, ECB forecasts more inflation (NYT)
Real estate agent Anna Morgan, of the Seattle-based Morgan Group, explains 1) how interest rates, inflation, and COVID is affecting the real estate market and 2) what buyers and sellers should know before a transaction.
Anna was my real estate agent and help me go through an overwhelming and confusing process. I touched base with her to get her perspective on what’s happening in the real estate market today:
1) How are inflation/interest rates affecting the market
2) Are we in for a downturn?
3) What should buyers and sellers prepare for before going through the process?
Also, we answer a reader’s question: “Are we screwed? Are home prices going down because of economy and interest rates?”

The Kentucky Derby races this Saturday, May 7th. For a long time I’ve wanted to pick my dad’s brain about the famous Derby and the horse racing industry. He’s been a race horse broker for 40yrs and was a former amateur rider.
