“So sorry I am late, Dorian. I went to look after a piece of old brocade in Wardour Street and had to bargain for hours for it. Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.” – Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Chapter 4 Ahhhh yes, the age-old question…how on [...]

Greetings! What a tremendous response to Martin’s article on his personal experience living through hyperinflation on Friday. I am so glad so many of you have “emptied your cup” and are willing to entertain the possibility of that happening here in the U.S…..heck, many of you think it’s only a matter of time, thanks to Bernanke [...]

TOO. MUCH. STUFF. It’s true…yes, I, Kung Fu Girl, who goes on and on [...]

TGI-Spooky-F! I’m writing you today from my good friend Cedric’s offices in Menlo Park (it’s nice to get out of the house and work from a real office every once in a while!). He and his wife Michal have started a new company called YogiPlay (“Confident Parenting on Your Mobile Device”) and have just raised [...]

I am hopping on a plane today for Santiago, Chile, to get a “boots on the ground” perspective of Simon Black’s new real estate development and sustainable community, so today’s article comes from one of our very own Kung Fu Finance community members, “Aunty from Hawaii” (and no, I don’t know her, at least not [...]

Happy Friday! You may have noticed that I didn’t post yesterday…due to my upcoming hectic travel schedule (next week I will be in Santiago, Chile, and then in Washington D.C. the following week) I will be cutting down the frequency of Kung Fu Finance emails to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (and in all honesty, this [...]

It’s freezing here today in Palo Alto as I write this; a great day to curl up on the sofa with a good book in front of the fire. If you’ve read my “Who Is Kung Fu Girl?” bio you’ll know I’m an avid reader (nerd alert!), and last year I read approximately 50 business [...]

I am one of the world’s most positive people (honest, just ask any of my friends– I’m one of those people many love to hate because I smile ALL THE TIME). However, today I’m afraid I’m going to be more “Debbie Downer” than “Susie Sunshine” so I apologize in advance… As I write this, stocks [...]

Thumbnail image for Diversified or Di”worse”ified?

Right now I have CNBC on mute (I’m addicted to the tickers, not necessarily the reporting) and Jim Cramer has a huge billboard up promoting being “Diversified”. This idea has been drummed into sheeple’s people’s heads for so long by Wall St. and the big banks that I beg of you to please open your [...]
