Quotes of the Day

Moderate aerobic endurance exercise, performed 3 times a week for 45 minutes at a time, for 6 months, increases telomerase activity twofold. So does high-intensity interval training (HIIT), in which short bust of heart-pounding activity are alternated with periods of recovery. Resistance exercise has no significant effect on telomerase activity (although it has other benefits--it helps maintain or improve bone density, muscle mass, balance, and coordination--all of which are vital for aging well). [2017] - Elizabeth Blackburn

Bond index funds rise and fall in price. But over the long term, they aren't meant to gain elevation. Long term, profits are derived from bond interest payments. Some investors think they've lost money on their bond index, if the unit price has dropped. But with short‐term or broad bond market index funds (or ETFs), that rarely happens over a period of two or more years. If it does occur, it will eventually revert to the mean. [2018] - Andrew Hallam

A man will stand taller, protrude his jaw and expand his chest to make himself appear dominant. A woman who is interested will respond by emphasizing her breasts, tilting her head, touching her hair, exposing her wrists and thereby making herself appear submissive. [2004] - Allan Pease

Airbnb offers a wide range of cancellation policies to fit each individual host. We recommend you set a strict cancellation policy. If you set a more flexible or moderate cancellation policy, then you enable people to opt out of their visit even after booking. This policy means that your returns and your guests are less locked in. Understand that with a more flexible cancellation policy, you pay an opportunity cost. If guests decide to cancel one month from their visit when they booked three months before their visit, then for those two months when they had your place booked, no one else was seeing it. [2023] - Symon He

It's important to understand that correlations are not constant. The same two assets may trend in opposite directions for a long time-even a decade or more-then move hand-in-hand with each other for a time, and then behave independently. However, there are two asset types that have historically made good dance partners: stocks and high-quality government bonds. In most countries, over the very long term, the two have moved independently and for long periods their correlations have been negative. [2021] - Dan Bortolotti
