It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. The old joke on Wall Street is that "sell" is a four-letter word. No investment bank wants to sound that harsh, especially as the firm in mind might be a current or potential customer. But now investors are looking at a new dirty word when considering their investments.

This time, the word is inflation. And it's not a dirty word yet. Mentions of inflation have jumped 1,100 percent on a year-over-year basis on S&P 500 earnings calls so far this year. And Clorox (CLX), a darling during the height of the pandemic last year, was just crushed on its earnings report thanks to higher input and logistics costs. We'll know in a few months if the worst is over. Just look for inflation rates to flatten out from here, or even decline.

Now here's the rest of the news:

Without all of you we wouldn't be able to do what we do on a daily basis and for that we say thank you. We've been living our dream for many years now and that wouldn't be possible without every single one of you. The idea of going from a typical nine to five life to a life of freedom doesn't seem real to most people, but we want you to know it is definitely possible. We've done it. You have the power to control your life, your actions, and what you choose to focus on. We're here to help you along that journey to achieve whatever goals you set out for yourself. What are you biggest dreams? Is it to travel all the time, to learn how to cook, to finally plant that garden, or maybe just to find the time to do yoga every day? Whatever it is for you, take a second and write it down on a notepad and stick it somewhere that you will see and be reminded of your WHY every single day. Maybe on your bathroom mirror, maybe on your fridge. It doesn't matter where you put it, the important thing is that you are reminded every single day about why you get up and what you are working towards. It doesn't who's advice you follow or what tools you use to make it real, the most powerful thing you can do is to remind yourself on a daily basis of what you're trying to accomplish and why you're doing it.

A world where it's self-evident that anybody can learn to sing, dance, play an instrument, and express their own original ideas through music. A world where "learning music" means more than just learning to play an instrument. It means becoming a musician.
