Information and Time, valuable commodities

“Information is the most valuable commodity…”

 “Time is the most valuable commodity…”

These are lines said by the character of Gordon Gekko in the movies Wall Street and Wall Street, Money Never Sleeps respectively. Information and time are both valuable things by itself, but I think the combination of time and information increases each other value.

It is a titanic task to stay informed in a timely manner about current news and events with the overflow of information available.

But here there is a list to start and at least keep in touch with important headlines.
