Hats off to James “Jim” Moylan, the Ford engineer that created the “Moylan Arrow” or the arrow on most car dashboards that indicates which side of the car to pull up to at the gas pump. Unfortunately, Jim passed away in December, but his simple, novel, and practical idea in 1989 became a mainstay on cars around the world. It also points to the fact that how innovation, no matter how large (AI) or small (Moylan Arrow), can impact an industry or an entire economy. Further, with respect to direction, sometimes it helps to have someone help us navigate and simplify the financial world of Roths IRA’s, 403B’s, 401K’s, HSA’s et al.
