About the Blog:
The blog section is dedicated to anything I feel like talking about that is not related to investing or finance (that can be found on Emerging Market Insider or Seeking Alpha). Subjects I will write about here include breaking out of the rat race, travel, entrepreneurship, self improvement, and on a rare occasion technology or politics. I am currently going through my journey of launching my own hedge fund and creating my personal and financial freedom. I plan on sharing lessons that I have been learning from my journey as it happens.
Good Morning Nick,
I recently read your article on “Shorting Student Loans,” and I would like your opinion on the impact of a student loan bubble bursting would have on investors, such as those investing in SLABS (Student-loan Asset Based Securities) and in what ways could, if any, the Securities Exchange Commission interject itself to alleviate or amend any concerns for investors. Thanks!
