How much capital do you need to make $10,000 per month in dividends?

With high yield ETFs it’s much less than you think.

Here’s the strategies behind these funds. 🧵👇

Imagine that you’re playing a game like bridge, poker, backgammon, or chess and have to make your move, and you have a computer that works with you to assess the circumstances and suggest a move. That’s what playing the investment game is like for me.

I now want to share what the existing characteristics of the market look like to me and what I think should be done in light of them.

As always, I welcome your questions and thoughts.

Retards protested vehicle emissions, so a guy mass produced electric cars. The same retards now protest him for profiting by solving their issue.

As Musk opens up space, some random thoughts from up here in paradise.

My rule is simple: don’t bet against Elon. Canada, almost reflexively, does the opposite.

Canada’s failure to embrace Elon Musk and SpaceX is not an isolated misstep, it is the latest expression of a deeper, decades-long flaw: a persistent lack of economic humility. At a time when global power is being redefined by technological capability, Canada continues to default to caution, complacency, and the assumption that its model requires little adaptation.

Musk, like Alexander Graham Bell before him, has Canadian roots. Bell became a symbol of transformative innovation tied to Canada’s early industrial identity. Yet the modern parallel is uncomfortable: Canada is far more inclined to celebrate innovators in retrospect than to support them in real time. The country reveres past builders while hesitating in the face of present ones confident in its narrative, but reluctant to confront its shortcomings.

Musk represents exactly what Canada claims to lack: a builder of industries, not a manager of assets. SpaceX has fundamentally altered the economics of space, created a new industrial ecosystem, and positioned itself at the center of future defense, communications, and energy infrastructure. These are strategic capabilities. Canada’s response? Indifference at best, suspicion at worst.

The irony is hard to ignore. A political and corporate establishment that loudly signals climate virtue has shown little appetite to embrace Tesla, while moves to sideline or cancel Starlink over Musk’s perceived political affiliations only deepen the contradiction, especially as figures like Carney and Ford now pivot toward rhetoric around a “Fortress North America.” Industrial policy is not a performative art. It demands coherence, discipline, and a willingness to engage with reality rather than posture around it.

This reflects a broader economic structure shaped by that same lack of humility. Canada has optimized for regulatory capture, financial engineering, real estate, banking concentration, and asset inflation, while underinvesting in productivity, innovation, and industrial scale. Capital exists, but it is not deployed toward building globally competitive companies. Risk is not evaluated and priced; it is reflexively avoided.

The reaction to SpaceX IPO made this mindset visible. Instead of recognizing a generational industrial milestone, much of the commentary defaulted to valuation cynicism and personality critique. This is a country more comfortable second-guessing builders than backing them, more fluent in critique than in creation.

The issue is not Musk. It is a system that confuses stability with strength, optics with strategy, and past success with future relevance. Without a reset in mindset, toward humility, realism, and ambition Canada will continue to watch the industries of the future be built elsewhere.

Canada is not being outcompeted, it is choose not to compete decades ago.

[Tim Draper @TimDraper]

Benzinga asked me about quantum computing and Bitcoin.

The answer… Bitcoin is more secure than the dollars sitting in your bank account.

Quantum will crack the banks long before it touches the blockchain.

Everyone's panicking about quantum breaking Bitcoin's encryption while banks are running on legacy infrastructure that makes Bitcoin look like Fort Knox.

Even if something happened to the blockchain, the full node operators can roll back to the last secure block. The network survives.

The dollar and banks don't have that option.

At some point, Bitcoin eclipses the dollar entirely as retailers begin to accept bitcoin, and then they decide they only want to accept bitcoin.

Read the full Benzinga interview to see what else we covered.

APPLE BANKS ON YOU PAYING $2.99/MONTH FOR ICLOUD FOREVER.
You don't need it.
I freed 47GB in 10 minutes without spending a cent.
Here are the 5 steps to copy:

1 ▸ Kill the Photo Storage Trap
Go to Settings → Photos → turn OFF “iCloud Photos” if you don’t use it. Then open the Photos app → Albums → Recently Deleted → Delete All. iOS secretly holds deleted photos for 30 days. That alone usually frees 3-8GB instantly.

2 ▸ Offload Apps You Don’t Actually Use
Settings → General → iPhone Storage. Scroll through the list. Tap every app you haven’t opened in 30+ days and hit “Offload App.” It deletes the app but keeps your data — so you can reinstall anytime without losing a thing. Easy 5-10GB back.

3 ▸ Clear the Hidden Cache in Safari and Messages
Settings → Safari → Clear History and Website Data.
Then Settings → Messages → Keep Messages → change to “1 Year” (or 30 days if you’re ruthless). Old attachments, GIFs, and message threads take up more space than most apps. This usually recovers 4-12GB.

4 ▸ Delete Large Attachments Without Scrolling Forever
Settings → General → iPhone Storage → tap Messages → “Review Large Attachments.” iOS shows you every large photo, video, and file ever sent to you, sorted by size. Delete the junk in 2 minutes. I pulled 11GB out of this one step alone.

5 ▸ Force Reboot to Clear System Cache
Once everything’s deleted, force restart your iPhone (volume up → volume down → hold side button until the Apple logo). iOS rebuilds its system cache on restart and releases storage it was holding in the background. Final 2-4GB usually shows up here.
No iCloud upgrade. No new phone. No paid app.

This stretch should be mandatory for people who sit at desks.

It's called the Tactical Frog.

Your hip flexors shorten when you sit. Your glutes stop firing. Your lower back picks up the slack and starts screaming.

The Tactical Frog targets the inner groin, hip flexors, and adductors at the same time.

How to do it:

Get on all fours. Slide your knees out wide, feet flat and facing out. Lower your hips back slowly until you feel a deep stretch through the inner thighs and groin. Hold for 60 to 90 seconds. Breathe into the tight spots.

It should feel uncomfortable but not painful.

Do it every morning before you open your laptop. Do it again before bed.

I've had clients eliminate years of lower back pain just by making this a daily habit because back wasn't the problem. The hips were.

Sitting is not neutral. It's a slow accumulation of tension that eventually becomes injury.

This can be the antidote.

@FinFreedom414 I have option B exactly. I had option A till I was 35 without the money lol. I miss option A but long term option B is much much better.
