This week I fell down a rabbit hole about dividend yield and payout ratios. The textbook writes in a calm voice. My brain writes in exclamation points. I am fascinated and repeatedly reminding myself: I am learning, I am not advising.
I color-code notes because I am who I am. Blue for definitions. Pink for formulas. Green for wait-does-this-apply-in-real-life questions I bring to my study group online. Yes, I have a study group. Former teacher habits die hard.
Understanding income from equities feels related to hosting: what does this asset actually produce for the people at the table? Different context. Same hunger for clarity.
If you are studying too, hi. We can be confused together from a respectful distance.
