Nothing to fear; it's a false conspiracy theory: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/food-processing-plant/ There are a lot of resources to debunk this falsehood if you just take a bit of time to do the research.

The public may find value when there is a crypto that is not hard to learn and use, and does not have a high likelihood of volatility, fraud and theft. Actually, no. The banking system works very well; why make your life much more difficult. I predict that Crypto will never replace our existing...

You are basing your risk assessment upon historical trading patterns for an asset with no fundamentals?

Shrug... it's hard for me to point out facts to those who have strong belief systems. What I wrote is easily confirmed if you decide to open your mind.

Commuting has a cost that is not included in the way most people calculate their salary or hourly wage. Scam may not be the best word, but waste of your valuable life time is absolutely a correct way to look at it. The average amount of time spent commuting in America is around an hour per day...

My wife and I have spent under $500 on gas over the last 6 months (including mower gas) due to my wife's 3 minute commute and my working from home as a freelancer. But the time saved is priceless. Commuting is a kind of self-imposed scam; but irregardless, Cryptos and NFTs are a much bigger scam.

This is precisely the common sense reason why I avoid Cryptoassets and NFTs.

Agreed. Although the bible does contain some wise commentary on current events: “And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.” - Isaiah 1:15

I watched our advisor do the same thing for some years and realized that buying a couple of Bogel's books added more value than the ongoing 1% they were charging to implement Bogel's strategy. One of the best investment choices I made was removing that 1% fee and moving our investment/retirement...

The good news I received in my epiphany from "God" when I was 22 is that heaven and hell are just stories made up by humans; something that has also been reinforced by personal experience since then and historical biblical research more generally. The main message from my epiphany was that any...

I've heard similar interpretations of the range of Christian practices in the first couple of 100 years after Jesus died. The Nag Hammadi library of writings (that were excluded from the bible by the early church) and other historical sources show there were all kinds of different spiritual...

"The real does not die, the unreal never lived." - Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj. There is a lot of wisdom in what you write; if you remove "Christ" from your writing you are in alignment with many of the world's spiritual traditions. Particularly, Hinduism and Buddhism. But then Christianity's...

Through meditative practices you can become aware during deep dreamless sleep, just as you can develop lucid dreaming abilities. Saying nothing exists after death is just as much belief as saying something exists which is why for me agnosticism is the only honest belief system. I profoundly...

Religion when one is indoctrinated during childhood is hard to give up or change. I was lucky enough to have a religious epiphany when I was 22 that Christianity was human-derived fiction, that obliterated the religious brainwashing, and allowed me to later discover Yoga/Buddhism practices which...

Historical research has shown how the writings of the bible were developed over 100s of years from a simple story of a itinerant Jewish preacher (one of many during that time) who merely asked people to follow the Jewish religion of that time. Jesus just happened to be in the right place and...

The FBI whistleblower's name is Fox Mulder. There is a fascinating documentary-series about him that started in 1993. He has documented this kind of behavior at the highest levels of government; the truth is out there!

The general thought is that @ElonJet will be the big loser. Musk started buying up Twitter stock after the kid rejected his offer to stop posting tracking data on Musk's private plane. I guess we'll see if Musk really believes in free speech.

But is anyone more successful predicting what the next big NFT will be anymore than most people can predict what the next big penny stock will be? Hind sight, and all that...

I was just thinking that as much as Bitcoin at $40,000 is one of the riskiest gambles in the investment domain currently. NFTs like Bored Ape are exponentially more risky. I have no doubt that fads like Bored Ape will be worth almost nothing within a couple of years. Perhaps replaced by the next...

Nothing is completely safe. It's a continuum. Treasury bonds and cash on one end and things like penny stocks, junk bonds, and bitcoin on the other. But nobody can predict disaster. And nobody can predict investing success in a relative sense either. I've done well over my lifetime but it could...
