Would having an estimated salary next to the lifestyle cost bars for comparison have helped?

I posit that truly great scientists cannot make great politicians (at least in liberal democracies).

The primary motivation of a great scientist is to pursue truth, typically in what is observable or can be proven by experimentation (there are exceptions). The primary motivation of a great politician is to convince other human beings to affect change or keep them in office. This usually involves obfuscating truths and repainting what is observable to appeal to others.

This puts core motivations and corresponding skill-sets between a great scientist and great politician at fundamental odds with each other.

Wow, if this is true I've lost a lot of respect for CL. Being scared to make forward changes because one doesn't know the source of success is such a terrible excuse to stop innovating.

The exact pricing for our premium feature is not yet final but for sure we agree that the 1%+ fees traditional advisors charge is excessive. Yes, automatic portfolio management will take into account gains/losses to minimize tax burden.
