Request for a WSO article: Read more Inside

It would be nice to have an article on being able to talk intelligently about what is going on in the news, and economy. They don't teach you this in school.

The article should include: How to be time efficient in picking the articles you read. Understanding the Key points. And, what to do if it goes over your head.

Better yet a weekly discussion series that gets started on an article: One article on IB, another global finance, and lastly the economy. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

So, when are you publishing your first article?

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.
