Against all conventional wisdom, I'm attending my 20-year high school reunion on Saturday . The fact is, people don't go to reunions to see old friends: they go to relive petty rivalries, tell tales out of school, see who made it and who crapped out....

A new survey reveals that black people don’t invest the way our white counterpoints do, but I didn’t need a study to know that: I’m broke, and not soliquid these days. I’m invested in groceries, utilities, and school clothes, and most of the people I...
