Fun facts for President’s Day:

• Millard Fillmore (13th) was the first president to have a stepmother
• Calvin Coolidge’s (30th) pet racoon was named Rebecca
• “Rutherford B. Hayes” (19th) was my answer to any question I didn’t know on my high school quiz bowl team (people heard his name a lot!)

💼 Portfolio Career

Meet Kama Ruby. “A career in massage and esthetics can be lucrative and help finance recording sessions.” Her daily schedule: coffee, treat clients, practice music, help with homework.

⚡️ Productivity

Chat with a friend. Just one quality conversation with a friend boosts daily well-being, per this new study. Catching up, joking around, listening.

💰 Money

Consider Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD). Canadian banks have historically outperformed most other developed countries’ banks due to the limited competition & favorable regulatory environment. Divided: ~4%.

📚 Books

Read Dreyer’s English by Benjamin Dreyer. We all write, all the time: books, blogs, emails. Lots and lots of emails. And we all want to write better. Benjamin Dreyer is here to help.

🎵 Music

Listen to Beatles in Bossa by Minas. “We both love & grew up on the music of The Beatles and Bossa Nova.” Their practice routine: 2-3 hours/day, 5x per week. My favorite songs: “Blackbird” & “She Loves You.”

📽️ Film

Watch Koyaanisqatsi directed by Godfrey Reggio. A collection of expertly photographed phenomena with no conventional plot. The footage focuses on nature, humanity, and the relationship between them.
