Silicon Valley Bank’s shareholders and executives lose it all, as they should. Depositors in good faith, however, should recover and have access to their deposits in order to meet their payrolls, pay their suppliers, and to prevent contagion.

This is pathetic- just pulled off a United flight to ATX because of a Covid outbreak in the ATX control tower. The control tower is closed for cleaning and our flight is now hosed. So much for science in control towers.

Howdy folks - BuildGroup jumped into the SPAC world last week. We can deliver a long term shareholder base and operational support for a new public company. Let us know if you think we're a fit for you. businesswire.com/news/home/2…

I was fortunate to spend some time with biz students @ St. Mary's University today. They asked me for career advice - here is what I said and would love for you to add some good ones on top. 1. Figure out what you're great at 2. Get good at accepting feedback. 3. Ask for help

Love traveling by train. The time is so much more productive vs airports. Wish we had high speed rail infrastructure in our country
