Dependents and fica and futa oh my. This is dense and am having a hard time retaining all the conditions!

Man, the rules on dependents are kind of a pain in the number of tests there are.

Pretty dry, but tolerable with lots of breaks

Utterly pleasant and dense with insight.

Pretty good!

A slog, even on the topic I thought I knew about. But learning new nuances.

Actually reading a copy from 1971. Just 91 pages in total

Like other books by CEOs, and contrary to its thesis, there’s a fair deal of brand puffery and myth building re: their enterprise. Useful examples though. Good reminders for writing succinctly.

Interesting chaser to Sci Fi “ministry for the future” as a book about banking policy. Arcane topic fairy well told so far, kind of centered on a line dissenting voter so far. I don’t know how comprehensible it would or wouldn’t be if you have zero interest in things like inflation or fed rates.

Don’t read enough fiction, but I loooved this book. Mix of climate change, political intrigue, and fiscal policy. Good highs and lows. Like the first half more than the second but it has motivated me to look at the world differently.
