Do not worry about quantum computing. It's not happening anytime soon, and even if it did, there are no real practical uses for it. I believe we're talking 50 years away from us figuring out the benefit of it, and that may only be the ability to simulate a quantum system. The Google announcement, while sounding profoundly major, is nothing. The problem they "solved" is not useful in any way....and there's no way to check to see if they got the correct answer unless you have a 10 septillion years to burn.

I tried Lending Club for a little while. I think my return was 2-3% over 5 years or so. Waiting for all the loans to mature and cashed out. Sounds a lot more lucrative than it actually is.

Yep. I didn't really care about the Land Rover affiliation, but really liked the color and movement combo. It's a shame they put that silly spoke over the movement.
