OK.

Make sure there’s no one reading this over your shoulder. Is the coast clear? Cool.

So, here’s the number one most incredible money secret: there are no secrets.

People are continually using The Secret this, or The Secret that to make their information appear occult or specialized. Bloggers are notorious.

Hey, guilty as charged. Here’s my Money Secrets post. And the Financial Secrets of an Abundant Mind.

The thing is, these are open personal financial secrets. There’s nothing secret about handling your money astutely. It goes a little like this.

Save regularly.

Spend smartly.

Invest intelligently.

Those aren’t really what I consider secrets. They’re obvious. They’re the subjects of millions of books, articles, posts, and bull sessions.

The Rolling Stones–via Irma Thomas–just needed time on their side. But for traders, you need time… and probability.

That’s where QuantDNA comes in. QuantDNA offers the probability of price movements for assets based on a proprietary formula.

QuantDNA is not a new site; they’ve actually been at the financial biz for a while and are associated with some of Wall Street’s big names. I was impressed with the first version. However, they’ve worked on some upgrades and updates to make it one of the most impressive financial tools out there today.

This is actually QuantDNA 2.0.

No, I’m not talking about Gisele, Kathy Ireland, or Janice Dickinson.

They are entrepreneurial super models who make millions by lending their names and faces to products and services. But, that’s not exactly what I’m referring to.

I’m talking about the entrepreneurs who you would model your own startup career after.  After all, it’s easier to visit the frontier if you have a guide. In this case, an entrepreneurial super model can be from any industry, any time period, and any position. They don’t really even have to be famous. The guy who owns a killer use record store that’s still in business might serve as one of your role models.

You don’t have to mimic these models exactly.

Unless you lived with the Unabomber during the 1990s, you have had a taste of disruptive technology. The internet has changed how we do business, how we communicate, how we gather news and information and even how we listen to music.

Business have been created overnight. (We had a word for Twitter back before the web–it was called graffiti.

And business have gone bankrupt over night.

This isn’t anything new. With each new round of technology, we experience disruptions. Railroad, the telephone, the telegraph, the printing press, the wheel, fire–they’ve all changed our lives. But, notice I said that we have experienced a “taste” of disruption.

The next round of technology won’t change our lives; it will change life.

Here’s what ticks me off.

I was just reading that dividend taxes may rise. OK, rise isn’t really a good way to put it. Skyrocketing more than 160 percent is a better way to express the pending tax.

Now, I think taxes are necessary evils. I just want a fair, limited system that requires the goverment to live within its means, just like we all do. Is that too much to ask? Apparently, the answer is yes.

But this tax hike is just plain evil.

Critics of technological progress, in general, and the Singularity, specifically, have been quick to point out a study that the genome sequencing program has led to little actual medical treatments and cures.

You can read these criticisms here. And a little gloating here on the Discover blog.

A great rebuttal has been posted at Physics and Cake.

Even the critics point out the the speed and power of gene sequencing is no less than amazing.

The economy is much more sluggish than the members of the Federal Reserve Board and experts, in general, expected.

Economists are ratcheting back GDP growth expectations. What started out as optimistic has turned to rational. And, now, the projections for GDP growth are tenuous.

The Fed is suggesting growth will be in the 3 to 3.5 percent range.

What’s troubling is that the Fed and every other governmental budget officer has spent their wad on propping up the economy. Is there anything else they can do?

The answer is, “yes.”
