Someone Didn't Think This Through
by Tom Bozzo
This was in my e-mail inbox this morning, from the American Economic Association:
The Fidelity Research Institute has created a new research award, the Pyramid Prize (SM). The $50,000 financial award will be presented annually to the author(s) of published, applied research that best advances the Institute’s goal of helping Americans achieve life-long financial security, whether through new retirement income approaches, innovative healthcare financing strategies or other financial initiatives. [Emphasis in original.]Avoiding pyramid schemes is a good start.
