Quote of the day

Dylan Matthews at Wonkblog (WaPo):

While [George] Akerlof's books only earned him and [Janet] Yellen between $5,000 and $15,000 (which is a shame, because Animal Spirits is great and you should all read it), the couple also has a stamp collection, which Yellen apparently inherited from her mother, that's worth between $15,000 and $50,000. I'm not sure there are any policy implications here, I just think it's cool.
