Financial Planning Tip –
The Virtual Pivot
Oddly, this heading is the same from last month, but has a different meaning…
Here in this post we discussed how many folks are really enjoying working remotely….
In fact, the mentioned study showed that 98% of folks wanted at least some remote time moving forward…now that’s an incredible Pivot!
In the future, likely some blending of remote and office…. nothing ever will replace face to face, but a nice blend may cut down on away from family and travel expenses…time will tell.
TSA Throughput Statistics
Over a weekend of surfing stumbling onto the TSA Throughput numbers an idea of sharing via graphic form was posted here in this post.
We even created this neat graph…
Good thing we did a review of this as the creation spreadsheet made its way to the recycle bend…not any more… it’s safely back now…
Looking forward to reviewing this again in the future to see if this continues?
Capital Market Comments
The Look Through Continues – Expect Bumps
Global markets continue to claw their way back, as investors look through the earnings drop and lowered interest rates help create a tailwind.
Recently, global markets took a few steps back when increases in cases occurred…. this makes sense.
Global markets are likely ahead of themselves….. time will tell, as mentioned in our Newsletter, there is a lot of horsepower aimed at fixing the situation in Unity!
Expect bumps, and headline shocks, both positive and negative … but that’s why we are happily conservative investors at heart!
Have a Great Day – Talk to you at the end of July!

TSA Throughput Update – Are We Flying Yet?
Several months ago, we stumbled across TSA Throughput numbers (never knew they existed) and have found interest in monitoring the numbers.
Here was our first look 49 days ago to be exact….
Over the most recent weekend, on a regularly evening bike ride near the house, two days in a row, multiple large jets made their way over, disrupting the most recently quietened skies…. even enough time for a quick pic …
Time for an update – glad to have kept the chart template -hence the logo too – so here we go!
TSA Throughput Update – Are We Flying yet?
We are definitely flying MORE …
But hold on … the above chart does not tell the whole story –
Wow… that’s amazing to us … just how fast it was shut down, how much we have come back since the bottom, but yet how much farther we have to go before back to normal….
Will keep the monitoring up, maybe the planes spotted over the weekend were just coincidence?
No matter, time will clarify and we will be watching!
Have a Great “Their Kinda Traveling” Day!
