An interesting perspective from Fed chair nominee Kevin Warsh, who has previously described Bitcoin as the “new gold” for the under-40 generation. Hard to ignore how right that’s starting to look. #BTC

If the market keeps pulling back in 2026, these are the stocks I’m steadily accumulating:

$TSLA
$EOSE
$IREN
$NBIS
$RKLB
$LMND
$SOFI
$AMZN
$TEM

Pullbacks in strong companies are opportunities, not threats. Accumulate with conviction.
Go big or go home.

Here’s a winter storm in all its dramatic glory. God really said, “Let me set the mood.” Nature doing the most, and I’m not mad at it. I’ll be home for the next few days with hot chocolate ☕️, a fireplace going, and zero intentions of stepping outside. Cozy, calm, and favored. ❄️🔥

Schumer just struck a deal to fund ICE for 2 weeks with ZERO accountability for them which means Noem stays, Miller stays, Bovino stays - and Minnesota keeps getting terrorized.

Two weeks of terror. That’s what Schumer agreed to.

What the FUCK??

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK????

True investing isn’t about timing the market—it’s about owning great asset you believe in for the long run. Buy with conviction, patience, and a clear understanding of value. That’s how wealth is built over time.

Tragic loss of life should always lead to accountability, restraint, and a recommitment to the values that protect everyone. Justice and public safety aren’t opposing goals—they require trust and the rule of law.
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

A $10,000 invested in the U.S. stock market 10 years ago would be worth $39,828 today. Go back 50 years, and that same investment would be close to $4 million. an unmistakable example of the power of long-term compounding.

Every starting point has a path forward. If it helps to talk it out and get some clarity, I’m always open.

Capital tends to flee at the wrong time. Liquidity, scale, and resilience still favor U.S. markets over the long run.
Investors seeking to dump US assets amid geopolitical uncertainty would be taking a “dangerous bet,” UBS Group AG Chief Executive Officer Sergio Ermotti said in a Bloomberg Television interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland
Exiting US Assets Is a ‘Dangerous Bet’, UBS CEO Ermotti Says
Europeans tempted to weaponize their holdings of US government debt amid the standoff with President Trump over Greenland are making a “dangerous bet” that risks backfiring.

Funny timing with the U.S. holiday. A lot of folks are ready to sell on short-term noise, but the pause is easing the panic. We probably miss the deepest dip we would’ve gotten if markets were open. Oh well—weak hands will always act like weak-hand.

Family dinner and football, I truly love America 🇺🇸🏈. Moments like these never get old. Grateful for the simple joys, the togetherness, and the spirit of it all.

Yesterday, I hit my first $100K portfolio milestone ✅
And it’s true—the first $100K is the hardest.

Next goal: $100K in my Roth IRA.
Same system. Same discipline. (For educational purposes only.)

North Carolina, the way she says goodnight. 💛

Not the birthday she imagined, but one she’ll always remember.
The flu tried to slow us down, so we stayed home and loved even harder.
Decorations up, gifts ready, smiles through the sniffles. Memories still made
Pink drink cake included. 🎂
Big celebration coming soon—she deserves it. 💓

The choice is simple: own assets to hedge against a steadily debasing currency, or leave cash idle and watch it lose over 50% of its purchasing power every decade. Over longer time horizons, the difference becomes dramatic.

Have a good night.

International equities are up approximately +40% YoY, a level previously seen only during select periods in market history. An interesting development for diversified portfolios.

Notable performance from international stocks this year. Another example of shifting market leadership.
International stocks are now +40% YoY $VEU $ACWX

That happened only in Oct 1999, early 2004, immediately after the GFC, and March 2021.
