More surreal than the three ironies cited by Laslo Boyd in his April 14 column regarding Towson Athletics [“Three shades of irony – the politics of Towson athletics”] is his curious failure to disclose his role as chief of staff to Interim President Marcia Welsh, which occurred at the onset of Mike Waddell’s tenure as athletic director.

Investors hear a lot about the benefits of asset allocation, that is, spreading your assets among different types of investments to help reduce risk. But less discussed is an equally important measurement: correlation, which is a way to measure how closely related two types of investments are. In theory, you could be invested in multiple securities of differing types and classes, but if they are all closely correlated, your portfolio may not be as diverse as you think — and could open you up to more risk than you intended.

When you purchase a home, there’s more to your monthly payment than just the mortgage, as well as costs that can go beyond normal maintenance and repairs. These days, some expenses associated with home ownership have risen so sharply that people are now giving a closer look, things like utility bills and taxes. Although not all of these expenses are applicable to every home sale, we’ll take you through the most common ones, so they don’t come as a surprise at the settlement table.

This three-letter bureaucratic acronym for “Equivalent Residential Unit,” is at the center of new stormwater remediation fees, dubbed “rain taxes” by local and national media. The new fees in the process of being enacted by local lawmakers in nine Maryland counties and Baltimore are being ridiculed by some as the ultimate in Orwellian government.

![]()  Business is a little off. It’s been that way for a while, despite a “recovery,” despite that you’ve hired a first-class sales team and rolled out new product in the past year, despite an expensive new ad budget. It’s very discouraging.
