What Do Hollywood Actresses Have In Common With A Bond Market Index Fund?

FYI: In 2006, Anne Hathaway made People magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People list. That year, the actress had starred in the film, The Devil Wears Prada. Nine years later, the now 34 year-old beauty reported that she’s already starting to lose roles to younger actresses. It’s a sad Hollywood truth. Time Entertainment reports that older male actors often get leading roles into their 40s, 50s, even 60s. Far fewer women do.

Once they hit a certain age, they become blasé, like a bond market index fund. Today, bonds rarely get respect. Stocks have won their Oscars for seven straight years. Bond yields, in contrast, are lower than a drug-addicted actor in rehab. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t own bonds.

  • MFO, how about that BS Emoticon now? For now, I will simply call it ANALogy. In the worse possible way.
  • dude doesn't know what blase means, quite apart from what else is off about his analogy

    I'm just tired off stupid analogies that's all. Besides why would Hollywoods actresses want to be compared to bonds?

    How about Hollywood Insider publish "What does a bond market index and hollywood actresses have in common"?

    And this is under "Fund Discussions".
  • Bonds and Blonds?
  • Bond on Bond
