Some (perhaps many) of you reading this today discovered this website because you read The White Coat Investor. The White Coat Investor, run…
A collection of articles and/or blog posts from around The InterWeb that are entertaining, interesting, or informative. This week we learn about Russians weaponizing whales, smartphone diets, cross-country moves, lockdown drills, doing nothing, banning private schools, and more. I’m writing this while on a fishing trip, with a work auto-reply message that reads: “Gone fishin’….

Anyone who retweets this tweet or becomes a new Twitter follower could win a copy of this (or another) book, or suggest a donation to…
“Vaccines Why do some parents hate em? Who’s spreading the lies? What can sane people do to encourage these hipster parents to fall in line?” I asked Twitter to send me their burning parenting questions and decided to start a recurring series called Pediatrician’s Corner. You can find all them here as they pop up. If…
