“Bonds stink right now,” Barron’s Jack Hough said on a recent Streetwise podcast, “but you still need them.” Bond yields are near all-time lows, and there is a real risk to prices from rising interest rates. So what's an investor to do?
At PRESERVE, we break down bonds into two categories: short-term reserves for near-term spending and longer-term strategic investments for income and risk-risk reduction. We consider that near-term spending money sacred and optimize as best we can for short-term liquidity.
With those longer-term strategic bond investments, however, we are replacing the traditional with flexibility and alternatives. For qualifying clients, alternatives could include private debt, structured credit, and real estate income. Many private strategies have a built-in way to protect against higher rates from inflation: adjustable, not fixed, interest rates.

Money isn’t the only way to give to charity. Here is a list of other options that include time, gently used clothing or household appliances, donor-advised funds, family foundations, and giving circles. For those donating things around their house, please donate things that are still in good shape and actually work. Otherwise, you are just using the charity to prevent from going to the dump—which is not nice.

How much sugar should you have per day? Mike Zimmerman, a health journalist and author of more than a dozen books on fitness and nutrition writes that the average American eats 17 teaspoons or about 68 grams of added sugar each day! That comes to more than 1 lb per week! Excess sugar intake can lead to a risk of heart attack or stroke through inflammation, high blood pressure, weight gain, diabetes, and liver disease. AHA recommends limiting daily sugar intake to 36 grams for men and 25 grams for women. Here are other options you can pick to reduce your added sugar intake.
