3 interesting things I saw this week – May 28, 2020

May 28, 2020 By Mike

As a federal policy, social distancing is still a teenager. Advice for those thinking of breaking into their retirement piggy bank. Could you have spotted Warren Buffet before he was Warren Buffet?

The untold story of the birth of social distancing (NY Times)

I didn’t realize social distancing was federal policy. Even more surprising is how recently the policy came into being. A longer read but if you’re into history it’s worth it.

Should you tap your retirement savings for help today? (Vanguard)

With unemployment the worst since the Great Depression, many people are looking for ways to pay bills. This piece does a nice job of explaining the recent changes in taking withdrawals or a loan from a retirement plan. Also some advice for people thinking about do so.

Could anyone have predicted Warren Buffet’s success? (The evidence based investor)
