Outdoor Dining Is Doomed
These days, strolling through downtown New York City, where I live, is like picking your way through the aftermath of a party. In many ways, it is exactly that: The limp string lights, trash-strewn puddles, and splintering plywood are all relics of the raucous celebration known as outdoor dining.These wooden “streeteries” and the makeshift tables lining sidewalks first popped up during the depths of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, when restaurants needed to get diners back in their seats. It was novel, creative, spontaneous—and fun during a time when there wasn’t much fun to be had.

Like a man struck by lightning three times, billionaire oil baron Robert Belfer has the dubious distinction of falling prey to Enron’s corruption, Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme and the implosion of cryptocurrency exchange FTX. To say this 87 year old is a financial fraud survivor is putting it mildly. Madoff took him for tens of millions. Kenneth Lay’s energy company drained him of billions. Now, as first reported in the Financial Times, Belfer stands to lose a total stake of $34.5 million in Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto company.
Why Venture Capitalists Won’t Be Punished For Investing In Ftx

Omega Healthcare Has Problems: Is It Time To Sell? (nyse:ohi)
Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (NYSE:OHI) is a very popular real estate investment trust ("REIT") because it is one of the highest-yielding investment-grade-rated companies.
