There's a TV over the fridge in the kitchen area on the floor of my office. It's always playing CNBC. So, I end up watching about 2 minutes of CNBC each day.

Here are my observations:

1. I have a huge crush on Kelly Evans. She is my Money Honey of choice.

2. I find it ridiculous that people do the opening and closing bells of the two exchanges and stand there and clap and smile while the bell is ringing. It looks so stupid and it happens every single work day. There's nothing special about it. At all.

3. I understand that stocks and the like are real money. I have money invested in many stocks, but it baffles me how there can be that much coverage of the stock market at that level of intensity day-in and day-out. The stock market is like a sports season that never ends. Sometimes stocks are up, sometimes stocks are down. And on and on it goes. The endless analysis is really weird to me. The big headline that I just saw when I was in the kitchen 5 minutes ago what that stocks were at their lowest point in two weeks!!! Two weeks. Just two weeks. That's it.
