Midterms
The midterm elections are still 6 weeks out, but the news cycle is starting to really focus on them. We don’t have any meaningful races in Colorado, so there hasn’t been much interest, but the races at the federal level are a different beast. I’m going to share my extremely cold take: the Republicans are…

Botley. Built
Around three years ago, a bridge in Oxford connecting Botley to the rest of the city was rebuilt. Oxford is a small city, has a lot of historic buildings around, and a river running through it. So, not the easiest project. The bridge was openned this week, and looks like this: It took three and…

Expert: A definition
What is an expert? Given enough time to think about it, you may conclude that an expert is a relational term; there can only be experts if there are also non-experts, in the same way people can’t be tall, rich, or good looking without short, poor, or ugly people as relational alternatives. In contrast, you…

Dad’s Night
Last night, we had our very first Dad’s Night, which was a great event. This wasn’t actually organized by the kindergarten itself, but rather by two dads who are clearly built for leadership. In a good way. I think for these kinds of events, it’s always useful to have an activity included. The guys organizing…

Clash
Tomorrow, at 12:30 local time, Millwall will be hosting West Ham United for the first time in twelve years. Both clubs play in the 2nd Division (think AAA Baseball), which is filled with teams you may have heard of (Wrexham, Wolves), and teams that you haven’t (Preston, Bolton, Derby etc). It’s not glamourous at this…

and chill.
There is a ton of information about investing in equities, ranging from braindead Tik-Tok tier to deep academic research. It is an area I know a little, but not a lot, and as such, have stuck to largely index funds. Right now, all of our savings are going into Schwab’s S&P500, which is unfathonably cheap…

Why I started this blog
I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.
With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.
While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
