Charles from New York asks, I'm lucky enough to be saving roughly $2000 every month. Because I'm pretty sure I'll be buying a home sometime in the next one to two years. Should I invest this money conservatively using mostly bonds with a tiny bit of stock exposure? Charles, if you think you're going to need this money for a home down payment in the next year or even two, I would not take any risk in the stock or bond markets. I would keep the money in cash. You just can not afford to have this money take a hit at the moment when you might need it. Have a question, go to Jill on money dot com.

"A professor at UMass Amherst on her research about new ways to identify the sources causes and solutions to inflation. So just on this point, can I just press you when it comes to identifying the systemically important industries or I think you call them ubiquitous industries, how do you disaggregate their weight in the inflation indices versus the extent to which they matter for other prices? Because I'm sure there will be some people who listen to this and say, well, obviously energy and maybe some consumer goods and things like that have a higher weight in the CPI. And so that's why you're getting these results. If you look at the paper, which I'm not expecting anyone to do. We can't distinguish between a direct and an indirect effect, right? So what our direct inflation impact is, it's just debate in the CPI, right? This is just giving you this is what the CPI shows us is the rate of the change in safety in core products for the change in the CPI. But then there's this additional share, which we call the indirect effect, which comes from tracing the indirect price movements that reside from this initial shock in say petroleum and core products. Now, of course, we have to make assumptions on how industries hand over cost increases, right? In the paper, we make two distinct assumptions. One is that it's just a pass through of 100%. And so firms just have a cost increase and just pass this on to their customers. The second assumption that we make is to say what if firms actually don't just pass on the cost, but they actually want to protect their profit margins. Now, if their costs go up and they were to increase prices by just the amount of the increase in cost, their profit margin would go down. So what if what if they actually protect their profit margin? So therefore, increased prices by more than the increase in costs. So this then gives us different magnitudes of the total effect, but we find that the rankings are relatively stable independent of these different assumptions that they are making. And the CPI that we are using here is that synthetic CPI because of course we have to break it down to these 71 industries that we have. So it's not the CPI that you download from the VA if you just look for CPI, but at the CPI that you get from the VA if you look into input output tables. Something I'm interested in and I don't know if it is something you've specifically looked at, but it sort of reminds me of this. Like, you know, we talked a lot about or economists have talked a lot in the last year about goods versus services, inflation, as if these are like two distinct categories of types of things that people buy that you can draw a bright line and say, okay, goods have gone down, but service is still up. But it seems to me that any good that we buy is also implicitly a bundle of services that need to go into the, you know, if I buy a refrigerator, well, there's some sort of service person who helped delivery deliver the furniture. And there are services for the truck driver. Whatever it is, does your approach this sort of input output approach sort of, I'm trying to think exactly the way to phrase it. But in your view, does it offer a more useful way of thinking about categories of goods beyond your sort of would seem to me like these arbitrary distinctions between the types of things that get bought in the economy. Good question. Yeah, great question. I mean, I would of course say yes. Thank you for saying that is a great question. Okay, no, no, sorry, keep going. To be sure, services are part of the input output tables. And we actually find that they are pretty upstream because of the fact that you just described, right? Because some form of even small administrative service involved in pretty much everything. So if we talk about sorry, if we talk about upstream sectors, we tend to think about physical stuff like oil and gas or matters or chemicals and so on. But what we actually see when we do the analysis is that some that some services are very upstream. Now, the price movements in services are relatively small on average over time because they have very much tied to pages, right? And they just tend to move much less than, let's say, commodity prices, right? So therefore, when we run these shocks, the service sectors, even though they are pretty upstream, end up not being very important for the general movement of prices in this model because the initial shock is so small if we model the shark based on magnitudes of past price movements and price movements in the COVID-19 inflation. Now, I do think that this kind of does give us a different way of distinguishing categories of sectors. If you want so because the idea here really is to say, okay, we don't care if it's services or if it's commodities or if it's processed goods or if it's manufacturing whatever it might be, but all that we care about is the importance of this sector. If you want to centrality in relation to all other sectors and in relation to people's consumption patterns, right? So what we find then is that the sectors that we identify as standardly significant are basically in three groups. So it's a basic necessities stuff like housing food, utilities, and of course also energy. And then basic production inputs, stuff like the plus a few that we have already talked about, but also chemical products. And then kind of like basic circulation infrastructure. So things like Jose trade. So I do think that that's a different way of distinguishing the nature of different sectors. So once you've identified these systemically important industries, these ubiquitous industries for inflation, things like basic necessities, housing, farms, food, and utilities, and energy, how does that inform the policy response? So the idea here is that because these sectors are so important that if there are large price movements in these sectors, this has implications way beyond these specific sectors, we should be paying more attention to what is happening in these sectors. So the first implication is to say, we need more monitoring capacity. Why do we need more monitoring capacity? Because we are living in some sort of age of overlapping emergencies, right? Where we have, of course, the pandemic that is not over, located, for example, at what's happening in China and how this impacts global production networks, but also looking at climate change and your great episode on the Mississippi River and how this is a kind of just making a whole sector in this case, of

"That was really the golden rule to live by and disrespect people and treat people the way you want to be treated. When you were growing up, who was your role model and why? Growing up, I'd probably have to say, my sister, I mean, the one who was bossy and told you you had to get back. Yeah, basically. Well, actually, I haven't been known to be the boss you want. She's known as the good sister, but that's okay. But there's an 8 year age difference. So things were certainly different growing up. So I can remember going to our college when they had little people's weekend. I was probably ten years old. So I was always a part of her life, but in different ways and so many ways, but she's very compassionate and very caring. And that's why she is the nurse. I've always been a little bit more business oriented. I'd have to say, but she was always a role model. For me to aspire to, you attended UMass Amherst, you have a degree in finance. Did you know what you wanted to do with your life when you were in college? You're shaking your head. I did not. I did not. I was always interested in business aspect of things. I always liked money. But it was always driven by money. I worked at a restaurant all through high school and college. So I did a lot of dirty work, but I like getting the cash. So that's what I think propelled me into the finance world. And you mess, I enjoyed that experience. I did enjoy being in the business school and learning different things. But no, I didn't know a 100% for sure. We are that would take me. And I think it's a good thing for people to learn. I have a daughter right now, 22 out of college and not quite sure where her next role is going to be and I keep trying to tell her, you don't need to know. I said, look what I'm doing now.

"That I always want to give back. So I was so blessed to be the first female Jack Welch presidential scholar to you mass. Wow. What an honor. It was an honor unlike anything I had ever experienced and so now I feel that a huge responsibility and an amazing opportunity to give back to the community that gave me so much. And so I was just out at UMass not too long ago firing up their women in business group and encouraging them and so never forgetting where I came from really having a strong focus on taking care of each other, the power of kindness and showing compassion. Who was your role model when you were growing up Melissa? Definitely my mom. Number one answer on this one. I know. Just raising a family and working full time and doing it all. I get it now that I'm a mom. I love her so much. What's your mom's name? Diane, shout out to Diane. Yeah. How about you, Amy? Who's your role model when you were growing up? Yeah, I think strong women raised strong girls, right? My mom's name is Carol and she was such an example to me of how to love unconditionally, of how to bring your whole self to everything that you do. And to truly love others. Amy, you've mentioned that you were a Jack Welsh scholarship winner, which is absolutely huge. I've met Jack Welsh wants an unforgettable personality for that guy, just so amazing. Can you walk us through a little bit of your college experience? I went to UMass Amherst. I knew I wanted to pursue business. And at that time in my life, I really wanted to have ownership over my career. I wanted to have ownership over my future. And I received from professors and parents and other adults in my life that if you wanted to have a really good steady career path, you went into accounting. I graduated from UMass. I met my husband there. I always say he's the best thing I got out of those four years. And I left there really focused on climbing the corporate ladder. I was very driven always very driven in my career. I went to Bentley for my graduate program, became a CPA, and it really wasn't until I became pregnant with my first son that I actually had time to step back. I stayed home with him for a year. And really think about what it was that I wanted in my professional journey. I wish I could say that, yes, I had it all figured out and I was going to know exactly what I was going to go into. All I knew at that time was that I had an interest in real estate, people had told me my whole life I would be great at sales and so overnight I became a mortgage broker. And had no idea what that was going to entail. And again, that wasn't right for me, but what it did, it got me on my path and that was where the gold was. Talk to me a little bit Melissa about your college experience. Yes. So right at obviously Georgetown high, I went over to merrimack college in north Andover, Massachusetts, loved it there, because again, it was that community, you know, I was able to really connect with a lot of people there. And I'm so grateful for my time at merrimack college.

Matt, I'm going to give you the floor to make a statement because look, if you can't say anything, you can't say anything, I get it.

He will probably break the bank and free agency and it's going to have a difficult time for the Patriots to retain Jackson if he is not tagged before the deadline on March 8th. And last but not least, Andy Isabella, the former UMass wide receiver, drafted by the Arizona Cardinals, has requested a trade and has been granted permission by the Cardinals to shop his services to other teams. Isabella's agent confirming to steal an S media that Isabella does want out of Arizona and he's gonna begin talking to other teams at the beginning of the league year and march and as the draft approaches about trading for the former UMass star, he would Andy Isabella that is be entertained by an offer from the Patriots. He would like to come to New England as a possibility, although he is not your typical slot receiver that the Patriots have gone after in the past. He's not less Welker. He's not really Julian Edelman. He's more of a vertical receiver than that. Maybe like Tampa Bay Scotty Miller for patriots fans that have watched a lot of bucks games over the last couple of years. That is one player I would compare Isabella to at the NFL level. He's had a really difficult time cracking the lineup in Arizona only one catch for 13 yards last year for the Cardinals.

"On. Espn dot com chuck section. I've given them out daily wager. But you know we'll rip through a few here i want to start with. Ecu this numbers come down a little bit. They play thursday night against appalachian state and look. I think he's us live dog. Jay vermont talked about it as well. They have a bunch of veterans including senior quarterback and app. State's been a little shaky as well. And they have a new quarterback and chase. Bryce you might remember him. He played a key. Clemson then transferred to duke ten and a half a lot of points for team that always seems to pull games out of the hat and have crazy place at the end. I like myself getting double digits plus ten right now but still i would out jumping on on ec as long as you get double digits and maybe a little sprinkle on the money line. That could be some fun The came by actually liked the most Kinda scared about it and it's umass and everybody who listen to pod on a somewhat regular basis knows. I'm kind of the betting bully as humans. A frequent guest. Your calls me. I like to bet on bet against bad teams. Just just do it right. Like orioles season win total under. I've certainly bet against umass in the past but thirty eight is just way too many points. And i'll tell you why won't bell and umass went out and got a bunch of transfers. Their quarterback is a six foot five inch from from colorado like the university of and or colorado university of boulder. And they have two running backs that transferred in one from rutgers. So a team that was like. Fcs not too long ago or fcs quality has some real players and you only have to get thirty eight now pits good. But they're at tennessee. The following week nerd uzis not a guy who's going to run up the score. He's old school. Fourth quarter they'll bring in the is a little bit and on top of that. Probably the best handy angle. I have is the offense coordinator for pit is a guy named mark whipple. He's coached umass twice head coach. Also the most recent time was just a few years ago. This is not situation where he wants to embarrass his former program. Umass is a special place in his heart. Whipple's going to call off the dogs as well. So i just think if you can get about two touchdowns even if it's garbage time i think plus thirty eight is the play in. That game is crazy. As it sounds another game. I like is essentially a coin. Flip game and it syracuse minus one. And a half. you might remember. I've talked about it with jay motto. The over three in the win total. They're going to split time at quarterback. Babies made that announcement. I don't love it. I would prefer. Tommy devito to be the entire time but dual threat with michigan state. Sorry mississippi state transfer garrett schrader. They're just better at a lot of positions that ohio but most importantly syracuse addressed. Their offense align issues. There was a pathetic. Offense couldn't even average average about two hundred fifty yards per game. Not passing just total yards per game. The veto would be injured. A lot spent a lot of time on his back. If they're okay on the offensive line this is just a syracuse team. That's just better. No more frank. Solich at ohio. Bob cats will rotate. Quarterbacks curtis rourke. Who's obviously the brother of nathan rourke the former stud bob cats quarterback and then armani rogers transfer from unlv. Ohio's very good. They looked good last year against the too bad teams really bad teams in the mac akron bowling green. But i think use gets there which is better talent especially with vito healthy and maybe we hope and improved offensive line. Fourth play i want to talk about

It hasn't really been a a detriment to anything yet. To the two things that I keep thinking about here, are I really wonder if we start seeing like end of the bench like walk off just do some wild ship this year. At the end of the bench just to get noticed to try and get like a mini like n e. I l deal just like someone someone like noticing you doing wild shit at the end of the bench and making like a couple Grand based off of that. That'd be great.

When guys are warming up in New Jersey shirts for the local pretzel place or something like that, but if the doors are open more power to Walk-Ons, capitalizing on what their stance is on on a team and being the energy guy and maybe it's the bench mob sponsored by fill in the blank local, but it could be anything.

They must rely on human testimony to fill in. What's actually happening in other words. Andy ease exist near the intersection of two seemingly contradictory ideas science and faith which is why after a neurosurgeon reported in n. d. e. it became central to the conversation in nineteen eighty eight. Dr eban alexander began his career in boston at one of the most prestigious hospitals in the country. Brigham and women's well working as a neurosurgeon. Dr alexander simultaneously target his father's alma mater. Harvard medical school in both institutions. He had access to some of the most cutting edge medical technology in the world. Soon dr alexander became an expert in a non invasive. Surgical treatment called stereo tactic. Radio surgery a procedure that uses targeted radiation to address medical abnormalities. In the brain it can even eliminate tumors without needing to open the skull in his own practice. Doctor under-used stereo tactic. Radio surgery to treat cancer. Epilepsy mentoring nerves and tangled blood vessels and for nearly a decade in the field of medicine. His star was on the rise until two thousand one when an elderly woman from arizona. Whom will call. Rose contacted him to remove a benign tumor in her brain. Dr alexander was one of the few surgeons in the country capable of performing the procedure. So rose flew from arizona all the way to boston but she didn't receive the treatment that she expected when rose arrived at the hospital orderlies placed her in a wheelchair and brought her into the operation. Room apparently no one spoke to her or explain what was happening. After doctors strapped into a device rendering it immobile rose demanded to meet. Dr eben alexander. She was about to go under and he had yet to introduce himself mere minutes before the operation began. Dr alexander stepped in front of her said. Hello and assured her that she was in good hands then she drifted into unconsciousness and the surgery began when rose woke up in the icu. She couldn't move the left side of her face. Dr alexander never warned her about the risks associated with her surgery and though he'd successfully eliminated her tumor half of her face was now permanently paralyzed. Ultimately rose filed a lawsuit. Her lawyers asked to see the paperwork she'd signed before entering surgery. But apparently dr alexander could only produce a single sheet of paper. It didn't even have rose's signature on it. Apparently dr alexander had misplaced a number of her forms. The case was eventually settled out of court shortly after. Brigham and women's fire dr alexander from their roster administrators have not stated whether or not the dismissal was related to the lawsuit. Either way dr alexander moved on to work for umass memorial medical center located in worcester massachusetts. Where apparently his careless behavior continued during one operation. Dr alexander reportedly left a small piece of plastic inside a woman's nick. In addition to the pain this caused her she needed another intensive surgery to have it removed then in august two thousand three umass suspended dr sanders for an error made during an operation. On another patient's brain stem the specific details surrounding. These punitive measures remain confidential by early two thousand seven.
