People often ask me what they should read. I assembled 38 works on history, war, uncertainty, liberty, capital, energy, technology, and Bitcoin for leaders making consequential decisions. Read to remember. Read to reason. Read to build. Upgrade the world.
Did you know the Mayor of NY City makes more money than:
1. Zohran Mamdani $258,750
2. Marco Rubio (Secretary of State) $250,600
3. Pete Hegseth (Secretary of Defense) $250,600
4. Scott Bessent (Secretary of the Treasury)
$250,600
5. J.D. Vance (Vice President) $235,000
Here’s the kicker. Mamdani’s self appointed committee is asking for an 18.2% raise for Mamdani and his elected officials.
His new salary would be $305,800.
Even a democratic socialist is a deep down capitalist. The guy loves giving himself a raise with tax payers money.
