Read this article then think to yourself: where does the $300/month come from to pay for a technology that will eliminate all human labor. The debts are the problem. They are unplayable. Once we accept that, abundance can flow but only with a deflationary currency. There is only one. https://www.zerohedge.com/ai/singularity-update-you-have-no-idea-how-crazy-humanoid-robots-have-gotten

How has no one invented a good front door pepper spray deterrent. Looks like an electric plate but conceals directional pepper spray. Activated from inside with pull string to avoid boobytrap laws (it’s self defense if you observe a threat and activate it yourself. It’s a booby trap if it’s activated by a trip line). Pair it with a camera that only records to your local device and only when activated. That would do 10x more than most noise based security measures.

SHIT JUST BROKE. HUGE WAVE OF PRICE INCREASES COMING. PREPARE ACCORDINGLY. I own a chemical import and distribution business. Every time there is a disruption in global trade that leads to massive inflation I feel it 2-3 months before the headlines. Things have been tense for weeks but overnight the dam broke. Prices are up 20-50% on some products overnight. This is the stuff that goes into making the stuff that makes the world go round. Fertilizer inputs, antifreeze, break fluid, bobble head dolls. All of it is downstream of my business. Could just be a blip but it feels like it felt in Q12022.

Wife: have you heard about the man who got kidnapped by dolphins? Me: we follow different news.

I run a business. I have two rules that are non-negotiable for me and anyone who works with me: 1. Don’t lie 2. Do the right thing even when it’s hard. I’m not a boy scout. I compete ruthlessly. I exploit any advantage available to my business. These rules aren’t idealism. They’re an acknowledgement that you CANNOT build relationships on lies and misdeeds. The US Dollar is the biggest lie of all. I still trade in it but I’m trying to create a world where I don’t have to. Here’s why:

Why do smart people go quiet when you explain inflation to them? They hear the words. They understand the logic. And then they change the subject.I...

This reframe was fascinating. Time will tell if he’s right but it changed how I’m thinking about the current conflict.

The best part of having a podcast focused on ethics and hard money is making my kids listen to it on the drive to school. Hard to have a 20 minute conversation with kids about why you shouldn’t lie. Easier to make them sit through my podcast. Leads to lots of great questions like “Dad are you famous?” and “Dad, can you please turn that off?”. “No” is the answer to both questions (since I try to practice what I preach about honesty).
