Great backward and forward-looking analysis and commentary.

Twice recently, I've tried to share some of your content on Facebook. Twice denied. They seem to think it's spam.

One of your best. I have 'leaves to mulch' myself. I very much like your backwards looking 'would you have taken this deal' approach. There was an episode of 'Deal or No Deal' back in 2015, when DOnald Trump was a guest. He gave a contestant advice; 'is that a lot of money for you? If it is, you should take the deal, not gamble on more.' It was better in delivery, but you had to see, it said everything about his value proposition to his base; 'you should re assess and take your best local conditions deal today.' That's it. Lot's of thermodynamics and Von Neuman Game Theory appl, by to identical agents optimizing local conditions/payoff functions, but doesn't matter now. 'Take your best local deal each day' that is his value proposition to his base. And it sold.
