Why does this publication constantly portray that 20 something year old kid who has never passed a securities exam and is apparently just a headhunter as though he was some recognized industry economist? $$$ maybe?

Dear Intrepid, Perhaps it's your timorous view of your own future that causes you comment in such a way about the " 20 something year old kid who has never... ". Remember the kids get it all. We all die and pass our legacy onto the next generation of which he is a formidable example of. Exams don't create or guarantee intelligence, business savvy, passion, innovation, etc. In fact they may even stymie by being steeped in the quagmire of yesterday's thinking. Not to say wisdom doesn't abound with age but youth and vigor trained and nurtured by sagely teachers is a powerful force for change. Read your history and start with Alexander the Great another 20 something who did little note than conquer the world by age 28. JLL
