How does Public Investing simplify bond investments?
It's me talking about public again, obviously. Are you surprised? It is my favorite brokerage after all. By now you know Public is the only place I personally buy bonds. If you haven't heard my spiel, in the olden days, I would buy treasuries through the government website and it would always take forever. And also the branding was horrible. It kind of looked like the Toys R Us website back in the day. But with Public, it's simple and easy to invest in treasuries right from your phone. There are literally thousands of bonds to choose from on Public, not just government bonds, corporate bonds too. You can use Public for more than just your bond investments, of course. On public, you can invest in stocks, ETFs, options, crypto, and they even have a high yield cash account where you can earn 4.1% APY on your cash. And there's an exciting new offering on public that I cannot wait to tell you about. Now you can invest toward your future self through retirement accounts. On public, you can open a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA or both. I mean, why not?

Why should you care about tariffs?
It wasn't hard to pick the first stories to cover as my first episodes back because two of the biggest stories in financial news right now are undoubtedly all things Doge and tariffs. Yesterday, we covered all things Doge. Today is all about tariffs. But as always, I'm going to focus on why this matters to you and your microeconomy. For starters, the way we talk about tariffs right now doesn't necessarily line up with how they actually work. So it's just worth reminding ourselves what tariffs are without any geopolitical frills. Here's the simple definition. A tariff is a tax on imports paid by the company bringing goods into the country.
How do tariffs and duties impact iPhone prices?
So, for example, if you are listening to this on an iPhone, a lot of the components of the device that you're holding in your hand come from China, and iPhones themselves are assembled in China. When your brand new ready-for-sale iPhone arrives at a U.S. port, Apple... Not the Chinese government, not the manufacturers in China who made the components, but Apple pays an import duty to the U.S. government before they can put the iPhone on shelves. Tariff and duty are sometimes used interchangeably, and while they're very closely related, they're not exactly the same thing. A tariff is a broader term for taxes on imports or exports usually set by a government to control trade. A duty is a specific amount of tax owed on a particular product.
