Hey, what’s up, everybody? I hope you all are having a smashing summer so far. It’s the apocalypse, but who says we can't still have fun, right? Mine has been great. It’s been exactly one month since I’ve been liberated from my oppressors. Thus far, things have been working out better than I anticipated. Things aren’t absolutely perfect, there have been some minor bumps in the road. Overall, things have been going really well since my emancipation. I wanted to explain a little about why I am always likening our version of capitalism to slavery. Obviously, I am not anti-capitalist. Although I don’t like labels, I think that “Progressive Capitalist” is a good way to describe my point of view on a wide range of issues. What I am against is extremes and imbalances. In the world in general and particularly in this country, there’s an imbalance when it comes to income and equality. Now I’m not saying everyone should be on the same level, that’s not realistic. There are the rich and the poor, but the level of inequality has become so disproportionate. That I believe slavery is the most accurate description of the system we have in place in this country. Throughout history and around the world, there have been many different versions of the system of slavery. Some more harsh than others, and some much more subtle. The privileged are born with such a built-in advantage that it pretty much guarantees prosperity. Once you reach 9 or 10 figures, business becomes so easy you can pretty much just burp and make money. While those who are not so fortunate are faced with an almost insurmountable set of obstacles to overcome to get ahead in life. Those who make it out are the very few. Within the richest nation that has ever existed in the history of the world, there is a nation of people who sleep in their cars and work multiple jobs just to get by. I choose to spotlight these issues not only because I’ve been in that position and I know what it’s like. But as a society, it is everyone’s problem, and if it isn’t addressed, it will continue to grow and get worse, affecting everyone in some capacity. That is just a glimpse into my thoughts, and I refer to our version of crony capitalism as slavery. It's not me being bitter and angry it's unrelenting logic. Anyways, returning to the original topic of my own emancipation. It’s been simply amazing. It’s like you're hanging in there with this job because you're making decent money. But it’s like being in a toxic relationship, you don’t realize how much it’s been killing you until you get away from it. Just having proper nutrition and getting rest alone has been completely world-changing for me. You can't put a price on peace of mind. After only a month this truck driver body is starting to melt away, and my actual form is starting to emerge. My hair is even growing in darker. Physically, I’m feeling more like the man I was before I got my CDL. Food is once again one of my greatest joys in life. People think being vegan or vegetarian is boring, but it's not. It's more exciting because we have to be more creative in our food preparation. First off, it’s a less expensive lifestyle if you’re looking to save money. Then, if there was any animal protein that I was craving, there is a plant-based version available. That industry is actually starting to get good, with prices becoming competitive with those of animal-derived products. Personally, I’m not that big on imitation meat. I don’t even get those cravings anymore. I know what fried chicken tastes like, it’s delicious. I’ve had it thousands of times. I know what double cheeseburgers taste like, I have eaten at least 20,000 of them in my lifetime. Wendy’s and Burger King were among my first jobs after I tested out of high school at 15. When I did eat meat, I was a big barbecue person. Nowadays, as a vegetarian, I still am, but now I barbecue vegetables. As a California Native, where barbequing at the beach and the park is a way of life. I can honestly tell you the barbecue is just as much about the seasoning and the sauce as it is about what food item you’re cooking. When I was on the road, there was this Asian restaurant in Newark, close to the hotel where I used to stay, that specializes in grilled vegetables. Ever since the first time I ate there, I’ve been completely hooked. If you are not up on grilled mushrooms, you don’t know what you are missing out on in life. Do you know how many varieties of mushrooms out there? With different flavors, textures, shapes, and sizes, there are literally dozens. In my opinion, as a person used to love to eat chicken. I think grilled mushrooms are superior to grilled chicken in every way. Ok, so I just had to get that out of my system. What do you say we get down to business? In this blog, we don’t just complain about the problems. We discuss real solutions, so let’s do just that.
So, when we left off last, we were talking about crypto. I don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea and think this entire series is about cryptocurrency, it’s not. It’s about contemporary financial literacy as a whole. We started our discussion on digital currency because it is an excellent starting point for new and young investors. There is a very low barrier to entry. You can start with fifty buxx and an app. It’s an excellent way to learn how to trade. I still hear experienced financial advisors saying on TV that you can invest in crypto, but be prepared because you might lose that money. As a fiscally conservative investor myself. I can tell that that is their opinion, which they are entitled to, but it is not accurate. You will not lose money unless you are very careless in your investments. If you invest in an established digital asset, it might go down, just like any other asset. But it is highly unlikely that it will go away. That would require an economic catastrophe, and if there were one on the horizon, we would know about it because we are paying attention to current events. So, we would respond accordingly. If the asset goes down in value, we still own it, so in this case, we just have to be patient and wait until it goes up again. Every asset, at some point, will reach a new all-time high. Patience is a virtue. This blog remains relevant because we discuss current events in real time. This week, the crypto was down a little bit. Overall, the whole digital market is down from its highs. This is nothing to be concerned with, it's quite normal. It’s actually a good thing and an opportunity for investors looking for a good entry point. Once certain economic indicators are identified, strategic investors will sell at a given point so they can turn around and buy at a lower price. In other words, this is an accumulation phase. Crypto does not exist in a vacuum, so we don’t have tunnel vision. We don't only consider charts, patterns, and existing data. We also have to factor in other variables, including current events. There are several major wars underway that will affect global monetary markets. Interest rate cuts will dictate the actions of professional investors. Because many of these people are trading with borrowed capital. They are very impulsive and risk-averse. Also, we are living in the age of the AI boom. So most of the liquidity is flowing in that direction right now. Also on the horizon is the new “SpaceX IPO”. There is a lot of excitement around this new property. Investors are going to divert significant revenue into it. Based on sentiment alone, all indicators suggest it should be an excellent short to mid-range revenue-generating opportunity. In other business news, “Warren Buffett announces that new Berkshire Hathaway CEO Greg Abel has “launched” with his first major deal, the $6.8 billion acquisition of Taylor Morrison Home, a residential homebuilder and developer with operations in 12 states.” This makes a lot of sense and fits in with our previous conversations. If Berkshire Hathaway can facilitate more home ownership. Then that's more people buying insurance from them, giving them more free money. Also, they can corner the market and make money on both sides of the new home-purchasing transaction. Another solid, clever move from the best in the business. You can do stuff like that when there are no limits on your resources. I will definitely be increasing my position in Berkshire Hathaway in my portfolio. As far as the future of digital currency markets is concerned. The fundamental elements and structure remain strong, even in a downtrend. Our beloved volatility remains intact. Even on the days when we saw a significant drop. Soon after, we still would end up seeing a nice bounce to the upside of at least 3 points, righteous buxx. Amongst conversations about regulations to protect and shield consumers from crypto scams. Mainstream acceptance continues to grow. Analysts expect another run from BC above $100,000 by year-end. Time will tell. But BC is not even the biggest opportunity before us. We will dive deeper into those details in the next episode.
the Update
What’s happening out there, everybody? I hope life is treating you well this summer. I wanted to take some time and drop an update. Today, I wanted to do a lighter, more casual, fun update. Before we continue our hardcore financial discussion. A wise young man once asked, "What's the point of working hard if you never get to play?" We’ll talk a little bit about business too. As I mentioned last time we spoke, things are working out rather well for me. Better than I anticipated. Even I am currently navigating uncertain uncharted waters. Still, as the landscape of my future path unfolds before me. The events that are occurring continue to help fuel my ambition and motivation, and give me every indication that I should remain optimistic. With age, I’ve learned that even scenarios that we may perceive to be negative at the time still help provide illumination to ensure that we remain on the golden path towards fulfilling our aspirations. Even the scriptures teach that “It is not up to earthling man to direct his own steps”. So that is why we must turn to “the Force” for guidance. The Force will never lead us wrong, but relying solely on our understanding will cause us to careen into a ditch. It’s a funny feeling when you have this thing in your life that pretty much consumes all your time and energy, and one day, all of a sudden, it’s just gone. Although the company I formerly worked for and its mission were not bad. Quite the contrary, it was a healthcare company. But within the company many carcinogenic toxic elements occupied several key roles. This often happens in middle management, as certain personality types tend to gravitate towards certain professions. I feel as if I came out of the situation ahead and at the appropriate time. Just to speak physically, I feel 200% better. In this society, our priorities can sometimes be askew as some people are forced to neglect their health and well-being to earn a living. But which is actually more important? I always tell people it's never too late to get in shape, but the longer you wait to take action, the harder it will be to achieve your goals. So that I am finally in the position to prioritize my health and well-being, it feels good to be taking my own advice. I believe one of the main obstacles in my former profession was that it was so physically demanding that every day was like a 10 hour workout. Then I would come home and do my own workout. The problem was that I never actually had the time to fully recover from those workouts. So instead of my body benefiting from the physical activity, it instead was deteriorating. So, besides being able to reverse that process and once again become lean and healthy. I have had the time to get really organized because that is the only way to become efficient and productive. So over the last several weeks I’ve spent a considerable amount of time restructuring my entire life. So that I can effectively move up to the next level. Over the years, this entire time, no matter how difficult things had become. I never lost hope or faith, and even though I am not there yet, in my heart and soul, I feel like I am in the home stretch and I can finally see success on the horizon. Currently, things are still a little bit up in the air. I am clearing a few minor hurdles, just finalizing some minor formalities. So please just bear with me. Within just a few weeks, I fully anticipate being able to go full throttle with my operation, and all things over the years that I said I would do, and that I have been working on behind the scenes, will come to pass. I have much more to say, so stay in touch, but it's Sunday, and I'm about to sit down and watch one of my all-time favorite shows, one of the best shows in the history of television, “The Food Built that America”
$ummer of Love
Alright now then, what’s up, weoples? I wanted to speak freely and continue this update conversation. For today's blog, I wanted to keep the mood fun and light. Even though there are many apocalyptic and serious situations happening all around us. Wars and reports of wars, floods, tornadoes, heatwaves, heat domes, and earthquakes in one place after another. I don’t need to report on that because you can just watch the news. Usually, I’ll take up a topic if I feel the general public needs to be updated on the situation and the media is not reporting on it sufficiently or honestly. I’m going to continue to postpone our deeper dive into matters of a financial nature for just a little bit longer. That’s only because in the upcoming weeks there’s going to be a lot of free time opening up in my schedule. So we’ll have time to stretch our legs and break down the details of the Go$peL. We will actually wrap this series, but we can still update it and add to it in the future if needed. Same thing with a lot of these other open subjects I’ve meant to get around to discussing. We’re going to start wrapping all those, too. As we began transitioning this enterprise to its next phase of operation. Once I feel I’ve gotten everyone up to speed and I’ve built up the plot enough. Where I feel like people will understand where I’m coming from and my thought process. This is going to become more of what it was meant to be a music vlog. Where I will start posting my new media. Then I can start speaking through my music. I communicate more effectively in that manner anyway. Today I just wanted to relax and have some fun. It’s been a pleasant summer full of Love, so far for me. It made me want to talk about some fun things. So I watched the newest Jurassic Park installment, Jurassic World Rebirth. It’s about a year old, but I am just getting around to seeing myself. I used to be such an avid moviegoer. Nowadays, I don’t even know when flixx are supposed to come out, and I pretty much just wait until everything is available to stream. This has to be like the seventh Jurassic Park movie. The first one was light-years ahead of its time. I lost interest in the franchise after the second one. It’s not their fault, but it’s like once you get over the awe factor of seeing dinosaurs on screen. You’re left wondering what this movie is even about? And why should I care? I blame uninspired writing for that. Because the concept of prehistoric dinosaurs and modern humans should never get stale. This movie was written by David Koepp. I feel like it could have been written just as easily by AI. It felt just really phoned in. Scarlett Johassan is always a pleasure to watch on screen and hear her seductive, smoove but raspy voice. In the movie, it seemed like they didn’t even give mandatory lines. It seemed more like they told her this is what’s happening in the scene, and you can just say whatever you want. Then she just improvised the entire film. I know this wasn’t the case, but that’s what it seemed like. You can tell someone is a huge star when they get roles where they just play themselves. Similar to Jeff Goldblum in the first two. He has his own quirky style of acting and just does that in most parts I’ve seen him in. The twist to this movie was mutant dinosaurs. My thinking was that it was unnecessary, you don’t need to add some silly plot device to make dinosaurs interesting and exciting. There are plenty of thrilling situations and scenarios that could be devised to keep people intrigued. Before you start crossing the line from science fiction to just the absurd. The Alien franchise has been really good at this. Despite the many movies they've appeared in, the Xenomorphs remain fascinating and scary, the same could be said of Predator movies. The same could be easily done with dinosaurs. This was a very typical Jurassic Park film, and it was a fun movie to watch, where you don’t care about any of the characters, so it doesn't matter who gets eaten. It had plenty of cool action scenes, though. Definitely a fun watch. I just watched season 2 of (the Last Airbender). I really dig this franchise, for me it really fills the void of that spiritual, sci-fi, fantasy, adventure left by the absence of (Star Wars). I even like the 2010 M. Night Shyamalan movie. Which got really harsh reviews. Mostly because it was a poorly written, incomplete film when it was released. Still, I found the concept and characters compelling. The Element benders are very reminiscent of the Jedi. I haven’t seen the animated series at all, but the Netflix series more than made up for what the movie left out. If I had kids, I would watch it with them. This is something that kids and adults can appreciate together. This series has great character development, and you can clearly understand everyone's individual motivations. This series has great dialogue and character interactions. The supporting characters seem just as important as the main characters. It’s well-paced, and there’s a good balance between the action and dialogue. It keeps you engaged with compelling storytelling. I will go and watch both seasons again, maybe a few times, so I can catch everything. It ended on a cliffhanger, so I can’t wait for season three. I also thought (Outlast: the Jungle was really good. It’s like a (Survivor) type reality game show competition. I don’t usually watch that kind of stuff, but this one caught my attention. It was a really good case study on human behavior if you are into psychology and personality types, like I am. Everyone behaved right in line with their personality type, it was quite fascinating. The fact that it was television and a competition, everything was amplified. I wouldn’t have done it. To split a one-million-dollar cash prize, that's going to be taxed mercilessly. It’s still life-changing money, but not enough to sleep on the ground outside, in a tropical, humid climate, and get eaten alive by bugs. With no food or water. Going to the bathroom in the bushes, and bathing in the ocean, and streams, with no soap or deodorant. That’s just not enough money and that’s only if you win. It would have to be at least 10 million for me to consider going through an experience like that. But it’s entertaining to watch other people do it. This was a quality show with excellent production and great casting. It’s an interesting game, and I like the rules. Except I don’t think the stealing should be allowed unless you're leaving your own group to join another. Because I can easily see that escalating to physical violence. This season was exciting to watch and had a great payoff. Meaning the ending left you with a very uplifting, positive vibe. The people who won the cash prize, you are happy to see them take it. Well, I know I was. The last show I want to talk about is close to almost being my favorite show right now, it’s so much fun. It’s called (Little Singles). It’s about a group of single friends who happen to be little people. One of the guys rented out this big house down in Palm Springs, so they can all hang out and party. This is a great reality show, sitcom, and soap opera. Right from the start, you like all the characters. I mean, how are you not going to like little people? All the little ladies on the show are absolutely adorable. It’s good to see these little people and their community portrayed respectfully. The drama starts as soon as they walk through the door and stays heavy throughout. It’s entertaining and interesting, only two episodes in, and I'm hooked. Okay, everybody, that’s going to be it for tonight. I hope your summer continues to unfold as lovely as mine has. Remember, your homework is to pay attention to markets and how they behave. So that when we resume that discussion, we can start “Breaking Down Strategies”…………….
You already know the drill, keep in touch with your partner STP on the whipulization station for the most prolific conversations on the strategic levitation occupation and how to defy gravitation.
Have a pleasant night and a deep sleep, wake up to a great new day and a productive week, aim for the starz and land on the moon, stay tuned talk to you soon, to be continued……….
