| Watching the news today feels a lot like watching a movie I’ve seen many times before. In 1971, I witnessed a major currency devaluation that I thought would be a disaster—but the markets actually went up. It was a lesson I only learned by looking back at 1933. When you study the historical "scripts," the current plot becomes much clearer. |

Wealth vs. Money
2026-04-06
Over time, wealth has become much bigger than money. Money is just a tool.
What matters is how that tool translates into real outcomes—freedom, resilience, and the ability to make decisions without being forced by circumstance.
That’s how I think about wealth.
Your AI Thought Partner
2026-03-10
AI shouldn’t be something you just "follow"—it’s a partnership.
The idea that we can make the best possible decisions by just juggling everything in our own heads is becoming obsolete. To really excel today, you need a thought partner. You need a system that can help you process information and logic more effectively than you can alone.
I’ve codified my 50 years of experience into a new tool called Digital Ray to act as your personal thought partner. Try the Digital Ray beta here: digitalray.ai/guest?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=digital+ray+beta
Wealth vs Money
2026-02-12
Wealth isn’t worth anything unless it can be converted into money to spend.
And when there’s a lot of wealth relative to the amount of hard money available — like we’re seeing today — bubbles are created.

2026-01-27
If you want to understand everything you’re hearing about budget deficits and tariffs, you need to understand the big debt cycle.
But if you’d like more context on how all of these pieces come together, I recommend you watch my 45 minute-explainer “Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order” here:

The Big Cycle: Reaching the Top
2026-01-26
It’s now happening. The existing fiat monetary order, the domestic political order, and the international geopolitical order are all breaking down, so we are at the brink of wars. It all is happening because of the Big Cycle that is driven by the five big forces I’ve described repeatedly and laid out in detail in my book and Youtube video titled Principles for Dealing with The Changing World Order.

Easy Money Seems like Cure All— Until It’s Not
2025-12-03
Easy money is a cure all, until it’s not. It’s hard to know when you have to put on the brakes and when things might pop.
Today, the stock market is at its peak, gold is through the roof, and the wealth gap continues to increase. And in terms of what comes next, it looks like we’re going to see a significant easing of monetary policy along with less regulation.
I recently sat down with CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin to discuss all of this and more. You can find the full video at the link in the comments.
Charitable Gifting This Holiday Season
2025-11-29
Trying to figure out your holiday gift giving this year? I have a great suggestion for you.
There are organizations like @TisBestCards and @donorschooseorg that will give a donation to your recipient’s favorite charity, on your behalf.
I think gifts like these are more in keeping with what the holiday season is really about, so I wanted to pass it along. #redefinegifting
