4/25/23: How Blockchain Technology is a Real-World Game-Changer Apr 25, 2023

Show notes

Charlie Munger recently wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal saying America should ban crypto. His partner in crime, Warren Buffett, says Bitcoin has no unique value at all. He doesn't think crypto counts as money. Well, let me help out both of these guys. Let me give you just a few real-world examples of how crypto solves problems and is helping millions of people around the world

4/24/23: 10% Return is Better than 8% -- But is 8% all that Bad? Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

A couple of weeks ago, I said that the biggest scam in investing today is ESG (environmental, social, governance), mutual funds and ETFs that invest with a filter so that they only invest in companies that pay attention to ESG values. I said that a lot of people have invested in ESG, and so that's pretty cool, right? You can align your investments with your values. But I also said that that's nothing but a sales pitch. Of the 120 funds that currently have a Triple-A rating for adhering to ESG, the company that awards those ratings is about to announce that they've been wrong.

4/21/23: Why Millions are Leaving This State for That State Apr 21, 2023

Show notes

Today's podcast is eye-opening. It's shocking to know that so many people making six-figure salaries are still living paycheck to paycheck. And it's all because of the cost of living in certain cities.

I see this all the time. People are so focused on following their passions and pursuing certain careers without really considering the financial implications. Sure, it's great to do what you love, but if it's not going to provide you with a comfortable lifestyle, is it really worth it?

I know it's not easy to make career and location decisions based on finances, but it's important to have an honest conversation with yourself and your financial advisor. You need to consider the cost of living in the area you want to live and the compensation you can expect from your chosen career.

I hope you enjoy today's show. Have a great weekend.

4/20/23: Is A College Degree Still Worth the Cost? Apr 20, 2023

Show notes

A new poll conducted by The Wall Street Journal in collaboration with the University of Chicago found that 56% of Americans believe that a four-year degree is no longer worth the cost. Skepticism is highest among those aged 18 to 34, the target demographic for colleges. The poll also found that only 44% of women, regardless of political affiliation, believe that college is worth it. College enrollment is down by 1.3 million students over the past four years, equating to $60 billion in lost tuition revenue for colleges.

4/19/23: Has Greed Taken Over Your Life? Apr 19, 2023

Show notes

I want to talk to you about Dan Snyder, the owner of the Washington Commanders, and the actions he has taken during his 24-year tenure. From building a fence around the stadium to prevent fans from parking for free, to charging admission fees for fans to attend training camp, to failing to address complaints of misconduct by team officials, it's no wonder why pretty much everyone seems to hate this guy - the league, the other NFL owners, the team's players and staff, and the fans.

Under Snyder's ownership, the team has lost nearly 60% of its games and hasn't won a playoff game in nearly 20 years, yet he's now selling the team for a whopping $6 billion.

It's important to learn from his example and decide what truly matters to you. Is it wealth and success at any cost or integrity and respect? It's up to you to make that call.

4/18/23: Wakeup Call To the SEC Apr 18, 2023

Show notes

The world of cryptocurrency is rapidly evolving, and I'm worried that the United States is getting left behind.

Here in the United States, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seems more interested in enforcing crypto regulations than fostering innovation. Their proposed rule to effectively ban advisors from recommending or investing client assets in crypto is worrying, and it seems like we're missing out on the potential benefits of this technology.

I urge you to stay informed about the rapidly-evolving world of crypto and make informed decisions about investing in this space. Don't let fear and uncertainty hold you back from the potential opportunities that this technology can offer.

4/17/23: Remember the Human Genome Project? Look What’s Next Apr 17, 2023

Show notes

Today, I discuss the Human Cell Atlas and how it is transforming medical research. The Human Genome Project mapped the entire genome, but now the focus is on the 37 trillion cells in the human body. The Human Cell Atlas has identified thousands of cell categories, and researchers plan to have a first draft of the full atlas in just two years. This research has already led to discoveries in cystic fibrosis, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer, and will ultimately lead to the eradication of disease and extension of healthy life.

Show notes

We've talked a lot this week about how you're going to live for a long time. That's a good thing because your kids are counting on it. Now, not because they love you, although, okay, I'll assume they do. It's because you're probably giving them money.
