Bittersweet. After ~12 years at Bloomberg and as a financial journalist, I’ve decided to try something new.

Such a great night hearing my incredible colleague @paulvigna discuss his latest book, including all the months of research that went into seeing just how far back our world’s worship of money goes. If you want a read that will really get you thinking, check out “The Almightier”.

Great night in Montclair talking about The Almightier with a bunch of family and friends and book lovers. The Almightier is the story of money you’ve never heard. Order it online now.

I like to experiment with different forms of storytelling. Here’s a toddler’s day, told through dishes.

And thanks to my sources over the years who were gracious and helpful (and even those who weren’t and made me work a bit harder 🤪). Thanks for taking my cold calls to entertain a silly question — and 20 follow-ups.

Thank you to Bloomberg and the wonderful, brilliant colleagues I’ve been fortunate to work alongside, especially those who showed such patience and kindness when I was just learning the ropes.

I’m putting away my press badge for now, but my next stop still very much entails writing. I couldn’t imagine a job that didn’t.

I’ve had a passion for storytelling since I was a very little girl — when I wrote this nine-page biography of my dog, Pebbles.👇🏼🥹 I even went to career day in 4th grade as a journalist (reporter’s notepad in back pocket). So while I’m excited for what’s next, leaving isn’t easy.

This has been just the best adventure, and I’m so grateful for your readership. I hope my columns were as useful to you as they were enjoyable for me to research and write for you.

Interesting timing given the at times scary shortage of baby formula (the ongoing nightmare of my own parental leave). Enfamil parent looking to sell baby-formula biz five years after acquiring it:
