Read Kiplinger Letter, Watch Portlandia, Stop Closing Doors


Read, watch, stop:

  • The Kiplinger Letter provides weekly forecasts on GDP, interest rates, employment, and insights on industries and economies.
  • Portlandia is an offbeat set of skits.  The executive producer is Lorne Michaels of SNL, and Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen lead the cast.  If you want a quick laugh, check it out.
  • Stop closing doors.  Several past employees have returned to the firm within the last few months.  For team members who leave the firm on good terms, make it a point that the door is open.  It can end up working for both parties.
