Seven Point Sunday – April 3, 2022

💼 Portfolio Career

Meet Pramod Raheja. He is a pilot and entrepreneur. “Because of my entrepreneurial career, I have contacts all over the world. When I travel as a pilot, I am able to set up meetings to advance my business objective,” he says. Check out his daily schedule. 

⚡️ Productivity

Learn keyboard shortcuts. One study finds that these shortcuts could save you eight workdays per year. Yeah. 

Here’s the math:

[2 wasted seconds / min] * [480 min / workday] * [240 workdays / year] = 
64 wasted hours / year

💰 Money

Consider Advance Auto Parts (Ticker: AAP). The company provides auto parts. High inflation may lead to consumers who prefer fixing their cars than buy new ones. The stock has underperformed this year, creating a possible entry point. The company recently increased its dividend by 50%.
 

📚 Books

Read Bull* Jobs by David Graeber. This late anthropologist analyzes why so many of our jobs are pointless. Why exactly do so many jobs add so little value to society? We keep working longer hours but aren’t happier. This is one of the most fascinating books that I’ve read this year. And while you may not agree with his thesis, Graeber will get you thinking. Here’s my take. 

🎵 Music

Listen to sweet nuance by Aaron Larget-Caplan. This is the new single from his solo guitar album honey cadence which drops on April 29. Aaron is widely celebrated as a phenomenal guitarist. This is his first foray as a composer. His music is mellow, peaceful, serene. I’ve been learning classical guitar, and I find Aaron’s music to be stirring. 

📽️ Film

Watch When We Were Bullies, directed by Jay Rosenblatt. The film begins with a mind-boggling coincidence from 25 years ago, which ultimately leads filmmaker Rosenblatt to track down his fifth-grade class to see what they remember from a bullying incident that occurred 50 years ago.
