YaleCourses 252

It has been a while since my last blog and I´m sorry about that. I've been having too much to do and haven't had time to really think about investing and blogging. My own investments are such long term investments, that I just currently follow the news and how markets are doing. Haven't even read anyone else's blog in months :(

Here is the first lecture:
