Earning money in one currency and spending it in a weaker currency is a life hack.

The real purpose of wealth is to become a kid again. To have the freedom to follow your curiosity and do whatever the fuck you want, whenever you want.

Hey @grok

What trading strategy did independent trader Jesse Stine use to turned $45,721 into $6.8 million in 28 months (a 14,972% return) between 2004 and 2006?

Warren Buffet: "True wealth is not having the biggest house or the most expensive car.

It is having enough money to live comfortably while being free to choose how you spend your time, who you work with, and the life you want to live.

In the end, time and freedom are the greatest forms of wealth".

Very true…

🚨 China Is Officially Moving Onto A New Gold Standard

At today’s BRICS summit in India, Xi Jinping announced China will take the presidency and open a third “GOLDEN DECADE.”

That’s not poetry.

China has stacked gold for 22 straight months. Hong Kong just stood up a government-backed gold clearing system linked to Shanghai, the first piece of a global vault network so the yuan can settle against physical metal.

China also announced internationalizing its Chinese Yuan for global trade and settlement for the first time ever.

China, Russia and India also announced rolling out their BRICS Pay settlement system as an alternative to SWIFT and dollar system and backed by gold.

China also dumped $70 BILLION in U.S. Treasuries. It's their biggest sell-off since the 2008 financial crisis.

Gold has now surpassed U.S. Treasuries as global reserve asset.

They didn’t say “replace the dollar tomorrow.” They built the vaults, bought the gold, and named the decade.

The CCP’s Golden Endgame: Crash the Fiat System, Launch the Gold Yuan.

This was exactly outlined by the famous City Of London banker @LordBelgrave and it’s now coming true.

Marcus Aurelius was right, the moment you are disturbed by insult or pleased by praise, you are still a slave.

I don't know where this widespread belief comes from that beating the S&P is nearly impossible.

I have the financial sophistication of a concussed squirrel, yet somehow I’ve wildly outperformed it for 7 years.

I'm remarkably underquailfied.

Is beating the S&P really that hard?

To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment

Diversification maintains wealth. Heavily concentrated conviction creates it.

The American dream of retiring at 65 is over. For those who are financially literate. Starting at 18 and retiring by 30 is a real option.

Primary purpose of going to the gym is to feel good. Take care of oneself to unlock the ability to help take care of others.

A hard pill to swallow. If your parents never built wealth they cannot teach you how to build wealth. Love them but find new teachers.

Retiring at a young age sounds great in theory until you realize all your friends still have jobs and you’re forced to spend your weekdays hanging out with boomers.

By age 25, you should be smart enough to realize NOBODY got rich with a salary.

I have found the key to happiness is gratitude. The thankful are by nature humbled by the grace of others and cognizant of the miracles that surround us every single day.

[Peter Schiff @PeterSchiff]

Powell basically said that the recent jump in gold is irrelevant to Fed policy. But when Greenspan was Chair he said that he watched gold closely as it was the best indicator of whether interest rates were too low or too high. How can a once-critical metric no longer be relevant?

[Mark @Mark_IKN]

- Hey dad, lend me $5,000, I want to buy an ounce of gold.

- $5,100? Sorry son, I don't have $5,200 available right now, and why on earth do you want to spend $5,300 on gold anyway?
