I’m here to learn. Investing mindset /strategy. Better late than never! English teacher in Taipei. GOAL: Buy a small RV and travel USA full time! Let’s go!

[Stephen | Investor Newbie @WanderlustBiz]

I’ve been a passive user of X a long time. Rarely posted. Recently, I’ve become intrigued with investor mindset/strategy. Maybe since i learned challenging jump rope moves later in life, I can also learn to be financially free?! I’m an ol’ dawg tryna learn new tricks.
Let’s go!

turns out, reading voraciously, moving your body, loving people without keeping score, protecting your solitude, chasing nothing but your own growth, and occasionally staying out too late with people who make you laugh until it hurts is not a bad way to build a life.

[James DiNicolantonio @drjamesdinic]

The goal isn’t to collect more stuff.

It’s to create a life you don’t need a
vacation from.

Meaningful work.
Time for your health.
Time for the people you love.

The ability to be present instead of
constantly chasing what’s next.

That’s real success.

The reason we think dandelions are weeds is because of a 1950s marketing campaign.

Dandelions, native to Europe and Asia, were brought to North America in the 1600s by European colonists who grew them deliberately.

Every part is edible. The leaves are a salad green, the flowers were made into wine, and the roots were roasted as a coffee substitute and used medicinally for liver and kidney conditions for thousands of years. They were a kitchen-garden staple well into the 1800s.

The shift happened after World War II, when 2,4-D (originally developed for chemical warfare research) was approved as a residential herbicide. Companies like Scotts built the modern lawn-care industry around the idea that a perfect green lawn meant zero broadleaf plants.

Dandelions, being bright yellow and resistant to mowing, became a visible enemy, and the campaign worked. By the 1970s, "dandelion-free" was synonymous with "well-kept."

They aren't native, but they aren't doing significant ecological harm either. The herbicides used to kill them, on the other hand, kill bees, contaminate groundwater, and have been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in humans.

If you hate dandelions, it's most likely due to a marketing campaign that ran before you were born.

Younger parents tend to ask my parents for advice.

I've condensed some key points over the years.

Run these psyops on your children:

- You are gifted intellectually
- You can unlock your supreme athleticism.
- Work diligently on skills and education that nobody can take away from you. That is the secret to everlasting confidence.

- You are the type of person who can achieve whatever you want when you discipline yourself to work for it – It does not just happen.

- You have an unending capacity to work, you are not lazy.
- You set your standard. Others are to fit in with you.
- Never worry about making friends, once you truly get comfortable being alone, people are drawn to you.

- Everything is a skill. You can learn anything; anything becomes more interesting the more you learn about it.
- Whatever you're interested in, be excellent in your chosen path. You will be supported.

- Genius is a state accessible to you.

- Nobody has the right to disrespect you, even at your young age. In any room you find yourself in, you have valuable contributions. They have inherent valuable because the words come through someone like you.

- Do not shrink yourself. You deserve to take up space.

- You can come to me for anything, even if you think I'll be upset – which I might be. But with me, you can unburden your conscience with the truth. I'm with you always.

I will always be the fortress that supports you until my dying days; and when I'm gone, gaze upon the spread of the heavens.

Know that I support you still.

They cut open the brains of Alzheimer’s patients and found a mouth bacterium living inside.

Found at significantly higher levels in Alzheimer’s brains than in healthy ones. Published. Peer-reviewed.

P. gingivalis. The bacteria behind gum disease. Producing enzymes called gingipains that destroy neurons one by one.

Your gums bleed when you brush. You think that’s normal.

It’s an active infection. The bacteria enters your bloodstream through the bleeding. Crosses the blood-brain barrier. Reaches your brain.

It doesn’t stop until someone kills it. Your dentist doesn’t kill it. He cleans around it.

4.2 million patients studied. H. pylori — a gut bacteria — significantly increases Alzheimer’s risk. A separate study: 2.85x.

Two bacteria. One in your mouth. One in your gut. One invades the brain. The other fuels the inflammation that lets it happen. Both killable. Neither tested for.

Mastic gum kills both. Published. One tree resin. $30/month.

1g daily. Chew it for the mouth. Swallow it for the gut.

Your dentist cleans your teeth. Never kills the infection. Your doctor monitors your brain. Never checks what’s eating it.

The bacteria is already in your mouth. Whether it reaches your brain is up to you.

Everything you need below ↓

[Jack Moses ∞ @jackmoses777]

7 things will determine your future:

1) What you work on
2) Who you work with
3) Where you live
4) Who you hang out with
5) Who you date/marry
6) What you read and listen to
7) Your faith and connection to God

Be intentional in these 7 areas. Everything else is downstream.

[Martin A. Armstrong @ArmstrongEcon]

I have said this many times: when a society begins to lose its work ethic and sense of personal responsibility, it is already entering a phase of decline. Economic systems DEPEND on individuals striving for independence and productivity. Once that incentive weakens, stagnation follows.

[Eddy Quan @waronweakness]

You need to be adventuremaxxing.

Building businesses.
Travelling.
Creating art.
Taking unplanned roadtrips.
Breaking your daily routine.

You can just do things. You can just go on adventures.

[Natural Immunity FTW @NaturallyFTW]

🚨 This is INSANE.

CANCER has been Cured via something found in Japanese forests.

• Literally ERADICATED TUMORS IN A SINGLE DOSE
• Head to Head against chemo & immuno — worked Way Better
• No bad side effects
• Prevented Recurrence: the cancer COULD NOT be brought back

All this was possible via a single bacterium isolated from the intestines of Japanese tree frogs - Ewingella americana. 🐸

➡️ When a single dose of the E. americana was injected into the veins of mice bearing colorectal cancer, the tumors were 100% Rapidly, Completely eliminated.

➡️ No side effects (except mild necessary inflammation, gone w/in 72 hrs). No signs of long-term toxicity (multi-month observation period).

➡️ It also induced immune memory against rechallenge (prevented cancer from coming back).

➡️ And importantly: Zero colonization in normal organs + GONE from the body w/in 24 hours.

➡️ It's Highly likely these results will translate well to humans & to other (especially solid tumor) cancer types.

I pay attention to cancer studies (have for decades) and these are actually an INSANE results.

✅ Why E. americana is the perfect CANCER KILLING MACHINE:

• E. americana thrives in the same (low oxygen, immunosuppressive) environment tumors thrive. And proteins + metabolic byproducts that cancer cells produce actually support the growth of E. americana, right there near the tumors.

• Tumor blood vessels are poorly structured, very permeable/leaky. Because of this, E. americana can easily exit the bloodstream and enter the tumor tissue.

IN OTHER WORDS: when this bacterium is injected, a perfect symphony transpires where it goes DIRECTLY to tumors & eliminates them  — while leaving normal cells & organs alone. 😯

✅ HOW IT WORKS:

E. americana eliminates cancer via 2 mechanisms:

• Directly damages cancer cells.

• Activates immune system — E. americana attracts T cells, B cells, and neutrophils to the tumor area (which then eliminate the cancer cells).

✅ WHY THIS IS LIKELY TO WORK IN HUMANS:

Curing cancer via bacteria has been tried before. Here's what we know.

⚫️ Efficacy results shown in mice usually DO translate to humans— ie. bacteria that accumulate in mice tumors usually do the same w/in a human body
⚫️ Toxicity results shown in mice also show up similarly in humans
⚫️ There has Never been a mice study showing results this good OR w/o toxicity (the other ones showed a lot of toxicity & even death in the mice)
⚫️ In other bacteria cancer studies: the bacteria DID accumulate in normal organs. This one does not.
⚫️ IMPORTANTLY: all other bacteria that have been tried thus far were bioengineered/GMO.
⚫️ E. americana is naturally occurring & far less likely to lead to bad side effects.

So anyway. Given these INSANENELY EFFECTIVE & safe results...they surely will FAST TRACK human trials on E. americana (perhaps on those who have nothing to lose and everything to gain) Right? ...Right?!

I doubt it. It'll probably be forever... IF they even let this get to the public.

They'll probably announce some new "miracle" genetic therapy instead, and try to pull all attention & resources toward that.

UNLESS we do something.

Be loud. Share this. Don't let this die down and be forgotten about.

This is one of the most promising "1 & done" type of cancer solutions I've ever seen.

But even if this does become mainstream, Natural Medicine & healthy living will still have it's place. This therapy does require an at least somewhat functioning immune system to work.

And know: there are ways to fix your body. 

Please see my other posts on cancer reversal via high dose IP6 (Inositol Hexaphosphate), large amounts of vegetable juicing (carrots/greens especially), high doses of specific mushrooms (Mesima, certain types of Reishi), etc. 

I've posted tons of studies & reversal reports (often stage 4).

Nature is amazing. Spread the word.

[Patrick Bet-David @patrickbetdavid]

The goal is simple.

Beat your prior best in everything you do.

In business
In health
In parenting
In marriage
In decision making
In your spiritual walk

As long as you continue to improve daily, eventually the efforts will compound.

[Jack Moses ∞ @jackmoses777]

Fear of spending money blocks your ability to receive money.

You cannot tap into the stream of abundance if you are internally blocking the flow. Practice spending money from the energy of optimism and love in products, people, and experiences that expand you. Each purchase should feel like an investment in your expansion.

When you are open to spending, you will subconsciously become open to receiving. This is an energetic game as much as it is a tactical one. Spend freely and intentionally, and it will flow right back to you.

“I set protective stops at the same time I enter a trade. I normally move these stops in to lock in a profit as the trend continues.

Sometimes, I take profits when a market gets wild. This usually doesn’t get me out any better than waiting for my stops to close in, but it does cut down on the volatility of the portfolio, which helps calm my nerves.

Losing a position is aggravating, whereas losing your nerve is devastating.”
