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.
