Ep 39 Making Bad Investments

Ep 39 Making Bad Investments

I love making bad investments. Here are a few I'm pondering about  buying: Brazilian Oil Company, Petrobras (PBR-A); Cobalt Drilling,  Glencore (GLNCY), Farmland REIT, Gladstone Land Corp (LAND), and  Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). Let me know which I should buy?

Ep 38 Have Fun Staying Poor! How the Fed Bailed Out the Rich and Silicon Valley Bank

Ep 38 Have Fun Staying Poor! How the Fed Bailed Out the Rich and Silicon Valley Bank

The Fed, Venture Capitalists, and even the President are telling us this  is not a bail out - but a bail out is exactly what is is! Everyday  Americans are unable to bank with SVB. For over forty years, Silicon  Valley Bank $SIVB have given preferential treatment to tech startups and  local wineries in the form of unsecured lines of credit, funding for  their startups, and connections to billionaire elites. But when the  bank's bad investments (investing in long term debt with short term  money) led to insolvency, billionaires and VC's took to Twitter and  begged for a bailout, in the name of protecting the mom and pop shop and  everyday Americans.

Ep 34 Blackstone Limits Withdrawals, Tbills 4% ROI, & Paddy the Baddy Robbed Vegas
