@HuskerMBB @remax Great group

A "hot hand" doesn't make the next shot more likely to fall. Markets are the same.

Whether the dollar rises or falls one year, next year's direction is about a coin flip. Short streaks don't predict what's next - so we don't chase them.

"Courage is the ladder on which all the other virtues mount."

Good financial planning takes courage. The courage to commit to a plan when the headlines tell you to abandon it.

Taxes are often the price of investment success - focus on what you keep.

Tax efficiency comes from the strategy: low turnover, dividend handling, control over when gains are realized. The ETF "wrapper" alone doesn't guarantee it.

Your intensity commitment and enthusiasm towards becoming the best version of yourself on and off the field is impressive and inspiring. Keep it going. In your grit your glory fits the Nebraska tagline perfectly. Go get them Trae! You don't have time for this but it'd be cool to see you go out into some farms and ranches in Nebraska and work alongside ranch hands that would be very cool.

Meet Bailey. She has a basket of perfectly good toys and always grabs the newest one.

We call it Irish Wolfhound Recency Bias. Investors have the same instinct - and it's expensive.

Fix: diversify, rebalance, don't chase the new shiny thing.

"I will persist until I succeed."

The drumbeat behind every great financial outcome isn't brilliance. It's persistence.

Stay informed. Stay invested. Stay adaptable.

@HuskerSoftball Sure that wasn't the first Husker home run of the day

[John O'Reilly @OReilly_Advisor]

@Dodgerbasebal @BobbyBrewer20 @MLB @Dodgers That's right. Hope someone puts together a mock up showing how it would have worked out.

[John O'Reilly @OReilly_Advisor]

@Dodgerbasebal @MLB @Dodgers Not a fan of dodgers. They are historically incredible. Fans need to catch up. But hats off to Pages. That was one of the most determined ABs I've ever seen. Hell of a job.

@HuskerSoftball @jordybahl @USASoftball It's not apples to apples but an Ohtani comparison would be interesting since both pitch and hit at a high level.

[John O'Reilly @OReilly_Advisor]

wow there's a rule needs changing. softball player intentional moves into the path of the ball to get "hit by pitch" - should be out! Instead (after review) Ump gives her first base. Unbelievable! Add poor sportsmanship too! @HuskerSoftball @GCU_Softball @NCAA
