Is it unhealthy to not workout so that I can keep my calories lower and diet in check? I notice that when I workout my appetite increases dramatically and it is much harder to stick to my diet. I feel like I should be exercising for the other health benefits but right now my focus is weight loss, and dropping my covid weight gain ASAP. Usually a gym goer - light weights and cardio 4/wk - but since gaining weight I’ve found my usual gym routine leaves me starving. Any advice?

I have a colleague who is unvaccinated and tested positive for COVID (he text me to let me know). He lied to the firm about his vaccination status since late last year and he went to the office on Tuesday before he found out on Wednesday that he was tested positive. We were all in the conference room together so, I’m exposed to it as well. He refused to notify the firm about his COVID status and putting all those whom he had come in contact at risk. What should I do?

Technically, if you are rich enough, isn’t self-insurance the best option? Insurance companies have to make money by taking in more in premiums than paying out in claims, so on average the customer is losing money and has a negative (albeit stable) NPV on their insurance money. But if you had enough money to tolerate the risk of a unexpectedly high expense, wouldn’t it be better to not pay for the insurance?
