Show notes

Today we discuss my personal 12 rules of business. Like many of my rules they are not exactly mine, rather those I learned from others and experience over the years. So many people seem to want to have a business but they either approach it without discipline or simply don’t know what to do so they never start.

They say seek a business that serves a market that has high demand, forget your passion. … Continue reading →

In this episode, I break down how we got here, what all effective diets have in common, and six simple ways you can scale your eating habits to match your goals. Plus, … Continue reading →

Show notes

Today we discuss The Trade Wars — a chaotic but opportunity-filled moment as Trump’s tariffs shake global markets, traders panic, and prices drop instead of rise. We dive into why early deleveraging might’ve saved the system, how Taiwan and Vietnam are already folding, and why a market crash is a buyer’s dream. Plus, oil’s collapse to $60 puts pressure on Russia and drops prices everywhere.
