 and we should be coming out live. There we are, there we are. Awesome. Hi everyone, this is Gichu. Welcome to my channel and welcome to the live stream. Today, today is February 14th, 2022 and 10 a.m. Monday morning and we're doing a live stream open discussion on investing and personal finance. As we mentioned before, investing in personal finance and Paltz go together. We did do a current events live stream yesterday and we covered a fair bit of current events. Information caught up with some of the news and we're going to be more focused towards the investing and personal finance aspect of our current societies. Aside from that, while we wait for notifications to go out on our Discord and on our Twitch channel, and we've done a lot of these, by the way, current events, and we do have a investing and personal finance playlist on Sensor with pretty good content. If you want to know what this is really all about and it is definitely layered on. Mathematics, Allah, God, just went out. Nice, nice Discord, I'm assuming, just went out. Again, if you want to follow this work, I am on Patreon. Patreon.com. She chose C-H-Y, C-H-O. If you want to support this work, if you want to know what we're all about, Patreon is a great way to do so. X2, Saturn, H-H-O. How are you doing today? Doing good, doing very good, doing, you doing, I added to today. I read words into sentences and stuff. I'm doing good, man. Enjoying sort of an early spring in the west coast of Canada. And we already got plants, green coming out of trees and flowers. The early, early ones, some of the flowers are out and stuff. So it's cool to see aching for summer. Looking forward to a little bit of vitamin D across the board, right? And for those of you that are supporting this work on Patreon, gang, thank you very much for the support. I hope you're enjoying the content. We go all over the place, but there's a few of you that have been there for a very, very long time. And gang, thank you for the support. It is in large part because of your support that we're able to do this, as well as the support we're getting on Twitch. So for those of you here on this livestream, participating in these discussions, sharing information, thank you very much for being here and for supporting this work. I hope you're enjoying the content as well. And mods, mods, mods, thank you for being here and taking care of business. We would not be able to do what it is that we are doing without your support. We do announce these live streams 30 minutes before we go live on MinesvkGap, Parler, Ketter and BitClub. You can follow the work there as well as joining our Discord server. You can come to our chat anytime you want, type an exclamation mark Discord and the link will be there. And the link will be in the description of this video when this live stream is uploaded to all of our platforms, I believe, as well as the podcast that we're uploading to soundcloud.com.com. And this podcast, the audio of these live streams where we don't have any visuals should be available in your favorite podcasting platform, including Spotify and iTunes and Google Play. And since this is investing in personal finance, the odds are it will be loaded in its entirety on Sensor2. If the discussion goes somewhere where we can invest in places we were not allowed to talk about on Sensor2 when there are places that we have talked about that go against the narrative of what's taking place. So for example, when Moderna stock was in the 300s and 400s during this personal finance and investing live streams, I mentioned that family was riding puts on Moderna and loading it up. And the family cashed out on the puts on Moderna a couple of weeks ago. But family as of February 14, 2022 is back and puts on Moderna and Pfizer and they just lick with just today sold the puts that were riding on Johnson and Johnson. So there is politics involved there. If you know what's going on in regards to current events, you could cash out. You could make certain types of investments based on the political situation of our societies to profit from certain stocks going in a certain direction. And that's what we can do. Just looking at public data. Just imagine what those puppets in government can do when they're privy to secret information. And this live stream will definitely be loaded on the Chute Rumble and Odyssey and its entirety. Aside from that gang, we're doing investing in personal finance and there's a lot of places to be. Wall Street is going chaos. The crypto world is going to a degree chaos. Certain investments are increasing in value, leaps and bounds. So for example, used cars. There are used cars that are up in the last year, not even the last year in the last few months. So let's say in the last year, let's assume in the last year, there are used cars that have gone up anywhere between 80 to 60 percent, 60 to 80 percent increase in value. And if you want to get, let me take these guys down too, and if you want to get good data being presented to you from an unbiased perspective where you can follow some of this work, you want to follow wolfstreet.com. I believe it's .com, but Rich is a Richard Whirlwind. I keep up with you. I'm very bad with names, but if you want to follow good stats regarding what's taking place in the markets and stuff like this, and this should be a first layer, Wolf Street is very good. And this data that I just quoted on, quoted you, some used cars are up anywhere between 60 to 80 percent, I acquired from there. We can have Barney's good morning, good morning, hope you're doing well. And it's been a long time. It's been a while for you to pop in, I think it's been a few months. If I recall correctly, Figuibo in 96, how are you doing? I had a leased car and just bought it out for $16,000, its current market value is $23,000. I'm absolutely insane. Brother, I would do the same. And there was a period in my life where I had a friend, I had multiple friends, I used to buy, they used to go to auctions, there's car auctions that happen. They used to go to auctions and I've gone to car auctions with them before, where we bid it on cars. And sometimes you would go to an auction, buy like six used cars, bring them home, and he was a mechanic, so he knew how to work on them, and he would work on them and flip them for 10 percent more, 20 percent more or something like this. Right now used cars are anywhere, some used cars are anywhere up between 60 to 80 to 100 percent. Anybody in the used car business is making mint money and there are companies on Wall Street that are in the used car business and they're making mint money. Their stocks are down a little bit, that means prices are most likely coming down. Right, we'll see, we'll see. Also good to see you Chico, we get to see you as well, big boy. Welcome, welcome to this Monday morning. We can have parties, yes, timing, school and work has made it challenging to attend or do anything I like that schedule. Yeah, yeah. Oh, thank you, Elder God. WolfStreet.com. WolfStreet.com. Insomniac Alley, how are you doing? Hope you're doing well. Chico, lovely to meet you, lovely to meet you as well. And welcome to our nice chill investing in personal finance, live stream. And by the way, again, for snacks, I got myself some pistachios. Pistachios. And these are sort of salted. I like this, raw is good, salted is delicious as well. You can get pistachios that have like lemon sort of brine on them as well, they're soaked in it. I'm not sure how they do it, but I don't get that because I don't know what's where they're getting the lemon brine from. But salted pistachios are really good and these things are addictive. And gang, if you're eating pistachios, be nice to people who are sharing a bowl with you and bring an extra plate for the shells. Do not put the shells back. Sometimes it's fun back in the bowl where you're eating the pistachios because that way you got to go digging to make sure you don't, you've cracked them all open. We can't have barnies. But the good news is Chicho is that I will be graduating in my associate degree in medical engineering engineering this April. Awesome, awesome, awesome. Ronnie, how are you doing? You can pull out sometimes, pull it out directly. Investment is nuts. Oh my God. Evil to hope how are you doing? Hey Chuchu, I hope you're having a blessed day indeed. Very good day. These things are addictive. In Saltenac Alley, salted pistachios are my favorite snack. I had a teacher bring back a huge bag of them from Iran nice where he was from and they were possibly the most delicious thing in the world. Yeah, Persian pistachio is the best in the world. Really, Cheryl, how are you doing? And Cheryl says, and if you put shells back in ground, back in around your mom, she may smack your hand with love, of course, with love, of course, hilarious. Funny, funny, funny. And don't let pistachio shells fall on the ground. If you're walking barefoot, it might, they can hurt, they can hurt. And there's a huge thing with pistachios, by the way. If you guys don't know the story of the pistachio monopoly in the United States, look into the family that has like 90%, like the majority of pistachio orchards in California, and that's where a majority of pistachios in the United States are grown. Look into the family that owns that company and the type of lobbying they did to get pistachios banned from Iran from coming in. So years ago, pistachios from Iran were coming into the United States, and Iranian pistachios are the best pistachios there are, right? And then this family kept on lobbying buying off politicians, paying them off. And they passed a law and they banned pistachios coming in from Iran. And lo and behold, the family in California that owns all of those pistachio orchards controls like 80, 90%, whatever the market is, of the pistachios in the United States. And while Canada gets Iranian pistachios, I believe, these are Iranian, I think they're above board. They cornered the market, they got a monopoly, right? That is part of investing. Insomniac Alley. I also discovered if you have a pistachio that won't open, you can easily use the shell of another to pry it open indeed. Let me see if I can find one. Here, check this out. See this? There's a little bit of crack there, right? Let's see if that's going to show. I don't know if it's going to show or not. See that little crack, right? Now, if you go in there with your fingers, it hurts the nails when you do it because you got to go in there and if you do a lot of these repetition, it's going to hurt. So what you can do is take the shell and put it inside, right? And then go click and crack it open. No pain. Get into the goodie. Use the tools we got. Right? Evil to hope. Isn't it sad that free speech is being construed as terrorist activity and terrorist activity as on free speech by the corporate media as the U.S., as free speech by the corporate media. Yeah, yeah. Evil to hope. It is what it is, right? We talked about this yesterday during our current events live stream. Allga, Mongolia is one of the most exciting investment opportunities currently available in the world with over $10 billion USD already committed for deep mining and infrastructure projects. Mongolia remains the final frontier for investors to benefit from continual and rapid growth. Really, allga. Chinese companies and Russian companies would have probably staked up a lot of that stuff. And I know in that area, when I was doing geophysics in the 90s, we had one project that was in Turkmanistan, I believe. These are Kazakhstan or Turkmanistan. Turkmanistan or Turkmanistan. Or it could have been Kazakhstan where it was about resources and stuff. I didn't go because I didn't do mining and I wasn't interested in oil and stuff. I was more into environmental, but we did have a very large project there at the company that, Eriji, hey Chicho. Perfect timing. I'm having a stressful day at work and I could use some of your calming tone in the background as I work. Much love, brother. Lots of love right back, Eriji. I hope your work day goes better than the way it started. Allga, I'm heavy in Mongolian investments. I am moving away from Western companies. Yeah. At that part of it, I would agree. To a certain degree, there are certain Western companies which is good to be in. I believe cannabis companies are a great place to be in even though family, because cannabis companies have a huge run up in the last two weeks. They've gone up anywhere between cannabis stocks. They've gone up anywhere between the ones I follow anyway. They've gone up anywhere between 30 to almost 100% in the last two weeks or so. So family has reduced the position, cannabis position by 50 or more percent in some of those companies just taking profits off the table. But still a great place to be, still holding positions and some crypto plays also in not a bad place to be. Mongolia, I gotta elbow God. Let us know in Discord, in our Discord page which Mongolian investments. I'd be curious to take a look at them. Calming. Yeah, I caught that one, Eriji. Calming is a good thing. Finish dude, 2,000. What's up? What's up? Hope you're doing well. Welcome to our live stream, very fun of POC. First live stream of cod, party. And gang, don't forget, free assange, free assange, free assange. Julien Assange is a publisher and journalist that has been crucified for trying to bring transparency and accountability of capitalist power to humanity. For more information see wikilees.org, defend.wikilees.org or Julien Assange and Wikilees playlist on SensorTube. Looks like it's a quiet day today. Looks like it's a quiet day today. It's Valentine's Day in certain parts of the world so people may be on dates and stuff in the morning or in the afternoon or in the evening. Which is okay, I love the color of pistachios to this fluorescent green color. Let's see if you'll focus. Is it going to focus? Let's see. No, it won't work. It's going to pop out. Figgy Boy to Elder God, please also provide info on how to invest in Mongolian companies. So you need a special brokerage or capital requirements. Yeah, you should be if they're on the markets. And it could be because what happens with mining and exploration and oil, even agro, you have sometimes Western companies cutting a deal with the country involved or the companies in the country involved to get a stake in whatever project they're working on, right? Sometimes it's done in a dirty way. A lot of the time, especially mining oil, it's done in a very dirty way. So in general, for our partner family, mining hasn't been something that family has invested in for a very, very long time. Elder God, no problem. I didn't think people would be interested in old world investment. So I never bought it up. Yeah, for sure, Elder God. Like some of the investments in or companies that people are throwing their life savings into in Wall Street right now that are positioned in the West, they're taking a huge gamble, huge gamble, huge gamble. As I've talked about on previous live streams I've dealt with personal finance for the last number of months. It's a trader's market and there's a lot of amazing put plays out there, which is basically shorting the stocks. But you're following the POC, Chico, have you looked into natural asset companies? Natural asset companies like what do you mean natural asset companies like oil and mining and stuff like this? Natural like resources? Finish dude. Just finished my work day, had a huge headache. Now going home is 8 20 p.m. here. Oh, drive careful. Finish. Are you in Finland? How many hours ahead would that be? That'll be 10 hours ahead. That'll be 10 hours ahead. You're Scandinavian. Yeah. Imsalmniak. I'm here to learn, but I'm terrible with numbers unfortunately. You know what? You don't have to be good with numbers. You have to be good with pattern recognition, trends. So what you need to do is have a feel, follow a certain industry and get the quintessential graphs that you need to look at, become familiar with how this company financials are going and then see what the trends are. And if the trends are in a certain direction, then you're really investing in the trend. It's not a good idea to invest in a snapshot of a company's financials for just a short period of time. It's a good idea to look at the trends, cycles, because everything's cyclic, really. Figgy boy, water. Yeah. Unfortunately, well, fortunately, however you want to look at it, I'm not cool with financialization of water the way it's done on Wall Street. So I tend to stay away from that unless they're companies that are producing equipment for construction like piping or just gadgets, like there are companies out there that make a certain type of thing that you need for a connection here to make everything work. It's like computers. You need like Nvidia and stuff, right? You need the chips, right? So when it comes to water and stuff like this, you can invest in companies that are providing equipment infrastructure to manage water, right? Which is legit. I don't necessarily, I haven't, I have looked into them, but I've never been interested in investing in companies that own water. It's just, I drew a line there, but there are, and I have the same issue with mining. Mining companies have created a lot of chaos and oil as well, chaos in the world. So the family doesn't really look into investing in those too much. Figgy boy, FIY is a fantastic index for water distribution and filtration companies. Cool, cool, cool. You can get it pretty cheap right now. Figgy boy, link it up in our personal finance, investing in personal finance channel, server, folder on our discord page. I think you are on there, but I'll provide the link as well. I used to know some of these companies a long time ago. I was doing a little bit of hydrogeology as well and stuff like this. So if you link it up for us, I'll definitely take a look at it as well. Infrastructure I like. Infrastructure is good. Ella got the Figgy boy. I deal directly with companies, Agenda and Mongolia Metals Corporation. MMC is my primary investment. MMC, Mongolia Metals Corporation, cool. Insomniac, I wouldn't even know where to go to look for stock trends. I've had some friends put money into cryptocurrencies, but I assume that's a bit different. It's almost the same. One of the most basic ones is the price. See what the price does over time, right? The best way to do it, Insomniac, is just go into one of the main platforms or secondary platform and just create a watchlist if you want to follow certain companies. Just create a watchlist and track them over time. Just graph their price and then slowly make it a habit just to check it on a daily basis or on a weekly basis to see what kind of news has been released about these companies and read the news and see how that affects the price. It takes time to do this by the way. You can't learn it in a day. It's something that has to become part of your lifestyle to a certain degree and it's consuming news and it will expand your life in a big way because all of a sudden you learn how our economy works, politics works and you'll find out certain things affect other things, right? So it gives you a very nice ability to link between different systems, right? What affects what? What's going on? Oh, oil prices go through the roof. Airlines are paying more from gas. Airline companies crash because they're losing money, right? Oh, supply chain is broken. Any company that's dependent on that supply chain, like they actually have to deliver a product from one location to another location is going to get hurt, right? Just stuff like that and over weeks and months and years, you become really good at recognizing patterns and trends. Ficky boy, makes sense. Everyone has their own limitations and ethics with investing 100% and that is key again. Draw a line to where you're not really interested in investing in. Don't just, because that way you add a little depth to your investments. It means you're not just chasing money, all right? Because when you're just chasing money, you might come across a situation where you're in conflict with your ethics because you're only chasing money so you're blindsided by the ethics of that investment and that will cause you to make mistakes and one of the first rules of investing is preserve capital, okay? If you can prevent yourself from losing 20%, okay? That's equivalent to gaining 25%, let's say, right? And the reason I say that is this. Assume you have $100, right? Let's say your $100 investment goes down to $80, right? So you just lost 20% of your money, right? 20% of your investment is gone. Now assume you invest $80 and the stock goes up or your investment goes up to $100. That's a $20 increase on an $80 investment, the same dollar amount, but from $80 to $100 is a 25% increase, right? So if you're losing capital, 20% capital, right? You have to gain back from $100 investment. You have to gain back 25% on an $80 investment to go back to where you were, even Stephen, right? So preserving capital gives you a bigger yield than making capital. That's the same, right? If you lose 20% in one investment and gain 20% in another investment of equal value, the gains are not the same. You're still overall down, right? So one of the first rules of investment, and there are many first rules of investment, one of the first rules of investment or mantras of investment is preserve capital, okay? So that means you don't want to get blindsided with an internal conflict you might have because you'll make the wrong decision. Jeon Seok, you still got those Moderna puts? I think they're going to pay off. Jeon Seok, family was buying, as you know, Moderna puts in the 200s and the 300s and in the 400s, right? And family has been in and out of Moderna puts multiple times, sometimes making pretty mint money return, not 20 or 30%, making 200, 300% return, right? Because Moderna's, as far as family is concerned, is a Ponzi scheme. It's a company that's worth at best $10. This morning, and family was out of Moderna puts for the last couple of weeks, right? That's the longest family has been without Moderna puts for a while, right? Because family has been writing these Moderna puts for last year. But family this morning got back into Moderna puts, okay? Basically at the open. So it was down like $5, $6 or something like that. Family got into Moderna puts and before the live stream was down $20 or so. As far as I see it, Moderna is a junk company. My guess would be if things play out the way they should play out, Moderna's stock will be way much, much less than $100, much, much less than $50 within a year's time, if not sooner. And it should really go bankrupt. My evaluation on Moderna, and this is just estimation, looking at trends and following the news, I haven't crunched the numbers. I've only, I haven't done it officially, looked at the numbers, but I've looked at their numbers, is at best a $10 stock with serious ethical conflict of investing on it, right? Figgy Boy will do awesome, awesome. I don't invest in defense anymore for that exact reason. Yeah, Figgy Boy, a family does not invest in war machine. Okay, I'll look at it. And I have to report, I receive zero Valentine's cards. So no one wants to invest in me. They're waiting for a dip. Usually, it's a good idea to invest in a company. Timing matters when there's a dip. So maybe tomorrow, because you're down and out on Valentine's Day, no card, there's going to be a dip and they're going to come in and try to swoop you up, Elder God. God held the God in a great deal. Hold it off for a long haul. It'd be really crappy if they start trading, you know, or it might be fun. Who knows, right? A little bit of trade action might be might be fun. Very fond of POC natural asset companies are the first step to elites making dividends on charging us to breathe 100% the resources anyway. I'm okay with the infrastructure part of it. Like I used to follow this one company of God is 20 years ago or so, where they sold the connectors for the pipes. So you could manage flow. And they're stuck and just shot through the roof, right? It was insane. At its peak, it was one of the greatest put plays you could have done. Finish, dude. I'm from Finland and I use a public transportation bus. I don't own a car. Nice. The car is expensive gang. By my estimation, a car costs you about $10,000 a year in expenses. Okay. That's wear and tear, gas, maintenance and stuff like this. Right. And that's what I did the calculations like 10 years ago or something like this for myself. And it was about $10,000 a year was costing me to drive. So once you stop driving, if you can manage your life to work close to home, don't take too many road trips, you'll save a lot of money. Cheryl, I keep searching for a publicly traded group that is heavy in desalination tech. Can't decide if the lack of is due to tech being closely held with intentions to use or closely held and hidden. I'm not sure. From what I understand, it's pretty expensive, the desalination stuff. I know in the Middle East governments are doing that, but I think those are all private. The governments are doing it, but there's got to be public companies that do this. Cheryl, if you find any, let us know. When I was looking to it way, way back in the day, the tech wasn't there yet to be able to do it affordably anyway. I'm not sure where they are right now. That would be great tech though. That would be cool to look at. Joe, how are you doing? Are there certain companies or industries you refuse to invest in due to ethical reasons? Yeah, for sure. Defense is one, oil is another, mining is another. Pharma family is okay with riding it down with puts, not okay with riding up. And by the way, again, just disclaimer, family had puts on Johnson and Johnson that they sold today. With the big dip where it on February 14th, it dropped like $3.50, another $3.50. So sold the puts on Johnson and Johnson, but acquired puts in Moderna and Pfizer, okay, or and acquired puts in Moderna and Pfizer. So okay with riding, pharma companies down, not okay with riding, pharma companies up. However, there are certain industries, pharmaceutical companies who can categorize on that, that are involved in entheogens, natural remedies that family does have a position in. And I'm totally okay with those. And gang, don't forget Free Assange, Free Assange, Free Assange, Julian Assange is a publisher and journalist that has been crucified for trying to bring transparency and accountability of capitalist power to humanity. For more information, see Wikileaks.org, Defend.Wikileaks.org, or Julian Assange, a Wikileaks playlist on SensorTube. Drew, why is Moderna tanking? They were almost filing bankruptcy for pandemic, before the pandemic. Yes. Why is it tanking? Unfortunately, that part of it, we have to talk about during the current events live streams, because we're going to be loading this video on SensorTube, unless we just say, no, only 30 minutes in. I rather not talk about anything. If you want towards the end, if you ask me the question again, why it's tanking, I'll reply to it. But basically, as far as family is concerned, Moderna is a Ponzi scheme. One trick pony, nine times they tried to bring something to market, nine times they failed. And this one product was brought into market on emergency use. And it's their one trick pony and their alternative remedies to these one trick pony and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and their shadiness up the yin-yang scam up the yin-yang. You just followed it. We followed it. And I was telling people to short Moderna, not financial advice. I was mentioning that family was shorting Moderna when it was much higher, much higher. I believe because it's trending downwards and demand for injections is tanking. Indeed, yeah, Pfizer is down too. Isn't it? Yeah, big time. Not as much as, no, because Pfizer has legit products, but Pfizer has dug their own grave to a certain degree. Oh, my God, trading. I've already done this. Have you even traded? Or have you done the trading? Or both? But does this stream on YouTube too? Or like what he's reading? Italy has a huge desalination plant, but I believe that's government. That's a good policy. Yeah, a lot of government. But there's got to be private companies providing some of the tech for these desalination plants, right? So or the services for these desalination plants, or the software for these desalination plants, right? Eels and cycling. How are you doing? I've got the good old JJ jab. Just so I could travel. Got side sick anyway. Laugh out loud. I swear it was water. I hope so. Eels and cycling. I hope so. I hope so. And family enjoyed the riding puts on J&J, looking to get more put position with with a bounce. Okay, cool. I'll follow your YouTube. Yeah, I do have a sensor tube channel, but we don't upload everything on sensor tube. If you want to follow all the content that we are uploading, you want to be on BitShoot, Rumble, or Odyssey. There's been days where I upload like eight short little segments or six short little segments from taken out from live streams on BitShoot, Rumble, and Odyssey, and only one of them, if any, make it on to sensor tube. So YouTube is sensor tube for us, right? So if you want to follow the full content of what we do, BitShoot, Rumble, and Odyssey are probably best places to follow the work and sensor tube. You can follow it. Let's keep it clean to last 10 minutes. Let's keep it clean to last 10 minutes. Ronnie, I took the job a long time ago, but I did not get booster. I did get actual COVID over the past Christmas. Cool. My lungs feel effed up. Still, Ronnie. Yeah. First time chat. Rye 87. How are you doing? Rye to Ronnie. If you already have long COVID, boosters won't help. It just might protect you from reinfection. Yep. Still feel effed up. Really, still Ronnie. That's unfortunate. Looking to remedies, I think. Drew, I had the second strain and the symptoms don't come back out for a month. Oh no. The topic of conversation just keeps on wanting to go in one direction, right? As far as I'm concerned, in terms of these injections and the companies that deal with them, these viruses and whatnot, families ride and puts on them. Elder God. Easy to cut up the 10 minute effed up two comments. So Ronnie, yeah, shortness of breath and I wake up midnight because I stopped taking a, oh crap, Ronnie. That's unfortunate. So it wasn't water or maybe it was. Eagles are cycling it. I simply got a damn cold. That's it. Let's take investment in food. Let's take investment in food. Family is a long SMG, Miracle Girl. Not that it's the best company in the world, but Eagles are cycling it. I made, I gave in, but again, I got to see my family overseas. Can't not see them. I guess I'm part of the, no, no. You were coerced. Lonely Piggy, how are you doing? Hello, Chico and Chad. Hope everyone's doing good. Lonely Piggy. Lonely Piggy, I'm eating pistachios, salted pistachios or salty pistachios. Oh, it doesn't want to focus. Come on. They look delicious. True. I'm thinking investing in beef. Yeah, or alternative to beef. Family has investments in alternative to beef. I know they're probably not the best companies in the world, but ethically, you're in Wall Street. Just being in Wall Street ethically is compromising. The problem with investing in beef is governments might be introducing regulations to collapse those industries. And they already have to a certain degree, right? So even though the demand for beef is up, governments will be preventing from those companies from being successful in bankrupting them and trying to divert the consumption towards non-beef products, right? Which is one of the reasons family has long position in one of the beyond meat alternatives. Drew, I'm off to class. Thanks for sharing your information. Good sir. My pleasure, Drew. Hope you enjoy your class. Yes, Oregon in the U.S. is trying to pass regulation to regulate beef indeed. And that is the problem, right? It's not about the need for a product or a service. Now it's about our has been for a while regulation from centralized power, right? So we don't live in a market economy. We live in an oligarchy, communism, fascism, totalitarianism, controlled economy, monopolistic, crony cap, whatever you want to call it. It is not an open market where the great ideas are the ones that succeed. Okay. And that is a serious problem with our society. Lonely piggy, starting pistachios always ends with an empty bag for me. They're so good. You just can't stop. I know I've learned I need to maintain it. Otherwise I do exactly what you do. Lonely piggy. And then you don't feel too good after eating a whole thing of bowl of pistachios. Keep the vegan army down. God says. Funny. Lonely piggy beyond me just looks unappealing to me. I don't think I could ever try it wholeheartedly. I have tried it. Some of the non meat stuff. They taste good, but flip a coin. What's in it? Right? A very salty, I think. But I know from kids coming up, I've seen more and more kids not eating meat, which is their choice, their family's choice. But that's one of the reasons family has invested in an alternative to meat companies is because this generation coming up, they're consuming less meat. Good for us meat eaters. More meat for us. John's like, it's crazy. I can get local beef from farms way cheaper than the grocery store. Grass-fed too. Not poison. Yeah. If you're going to eat beef, you need grass-fed beef. Okay. Grass-fed beef is the way to go. Not grain-fed. And grass-fed cheese and yogurt. We're good with grass-fed yogurt. We only eat grass-fed yogurt, grass-fed beef. The cheese becomes more difficult to find only grass-fed cheese, but when we can get it, we get it. Xander, how are you doing? Forgive me if you've discussed it before, but any opinion on Tilleray? Family wasn't Tilleray, but because the cannabis companies have done a serious jump up anywhere between 30. Tilleray is up 30% from the down. As you can tell, family follows Tilleray. It went down to like six and a half, six 80 or something. And it was at nine 20 or something today and on Friday and stuff like this. Family sold acquired some further down and family has bought some further up to lost some money, made some money. But family has liquidated a lot of the, at least half the positions they had in cannabis, cannabis stocks, and we did talk about this Xander a little bit earlier, cannabis stocks in the last two, in the last few days, right? Because in the last two to three weeks, cannabis stocks are up anywhere between 30 to 100%. So, and if you acquired at that dip, it's not bad taking a 30 to 100% profit off the table. So, for example, Charlotte's Web, as a Friday, it was up like 90% in a week. Not a bad time to take some profits off the table, right? But Tilleray is Canada's largest cannabis company. They have a huge stake to play in Germany and they have multiple interests in multiple companies in the United States and they've gotten into brewing business as well. They bought a couple of brewing companies, right? So, Tilleray is diversified. It is, family is looking to get back into Tilleray and family has played calls on Tilleray as well. Nice payout. Tilleray is a company that family is tracking and will like to get into again, a position again. However, there are political stuff happening right now with the supply chain being broken in Canada with like Montreal passed a law saying that no one can buy, if you want to buy alcohol or cannabis, you need a QR code, right? A certification of injection, which to me is insane, right? That is the most, one of the most insane things I've ever heard. So, government right now in Canada is putting a, like a ton of pressure on Canadian companies. So, they're putting the financial stability of Canadian companies serious pressure on them, right? Some of these companies are going to go bankrupt because of the mandates and the pressure put on them by the federal and provincial governments, okay? So, IE, the Canadian government is collapsing the Canadian economy, which is going to take down a few Canadian companies with it, right? I don't think Tilleray will collapse. However, families playing bounces on Tilleray, okay? Would like to get into it again, but based on the World Economic Forum, they want to bring in the great reset and that means that they need to collapse. Certain countries in Canada has been, is on the crosshairs. Eagles cycling, I like beyond meat, tastes good, good as fuck to me. Yeah, I had their sausages, they were a really delicious man, but man, they must have been so, so much salt and stuff in them. I wouldn't eat on a daily basis, it's not healthy, right? But even though family has position in it, calls, but wouldn't you say there is always a kind of monopoly? No, not always. Look at the cannabis industry. There is no monopoly right now. It's awesome, right? There's price competition, there's multiple places you can invest in, there's different types of products available, like the cannabis industry and the entheogen industry coming rising, right? Is brilliant, is brilliant. Joe Ciccio, have you ever watched the comedy series called Silicon Valley? No, very funny and the investing stories are really interesting. No, I haven't, Joe. I, I detest Silicon Valley, so I wouldn't want to see them. Elder God, the compulsory beef labeling scheme rules apply to anyone selling or supplying fresh or frozen beef or veal anywhere in the supply chain. Every food business that sells or supplies these meats must set up a traceability system. The records that make up the traceability system contain reference numbers linking the traceability information to the labels of the beef. This ensures that wherever beef or veal is sold, it can be traced back to where it originated. Yeah. And they're trying to do this with all food products, by the way. Okay. Eagles of Silicon, I haven't eaten meat or dairy in four years. Oh yeah, eat meat. I can't remember yesterday. Jazonk, plant burgers remind me of alchemy. You would see in old things about witches they use canola oil to and all this man made natural stuff. Yeah, natural stuff, right? Natural stuff. Elder God, I will never give up my beef, but I prefer local beef from UK farmers. Yeah. For me, I prefer the beef that we get 99% of it is island grown beef, like BC. If not island, it's within BC. Or Alberta too, Alberta too. Alberta's got good beef. Oh my God, I will never give up lamb, lamb, delicious. BC lamb is so good. So good lamb is so yummy. Yummy, yummy. Chats kicked up a little bit. Let me get caught up with Chatsy where we're at. Scooty, how are you doing? I have money just sitting in savings and wondering if it would be worth investing in stock, but I don't really know how to go about it. Scooty, start doing some research and just start following some stocks. The best way to learn about the stock market is just to follow some stocks. Just go to one of the main financial platforms. Their pages and just create a portfolio free. Don't invest or create a watch list and just follow those stocks and read the news that's coming out on them and look at their charts on a daily basis just to see what they're doing and how the news affects them. If they put out a big news, see how the stock has affected and slowly you'll learn how it works. You'll get into the trend and listen to their financials, their results, quarterly and yearly results, especially their listening and tuning to their conference calls. And slowly you'll learn things. Oh my god, looks like it meets back on the menu boys. It goes like I need to. I've got 130 grand sitting in a dumb checking account, losing money daily, no clue what to do. Gain. Gain into something that you love, right? Like seriously, I don't know, eagles and cycling and the junk is a junk. I forget who it was. I said they have money sitting in whatever. Look, if you guys like comic books, look into comic books, find out, you know, decide what character you really like and what some important issues are. You can do research and if you find something that is reasonably priced, that could be an investment, it's art. Instead of sitting in a checking account because like you said, it's just money. You don't want to be sitting on too much money. Money loses its purchasing power. There are times when cash is king and we're in sort of one of those periods right now, but you can invest in things that you know about if you know about comic books or if you want to go into collectibles or art or records, there are things you can put your money in that on average have gone up over an extended period of time. No, it's got 130 grand, Scooty, I don't have 130 grand. Scared to buy crypto. Depends on the crypto beat. I've got like 300 savings, just the college in the UK. Scooty, one of the, by the way, one of the best places you can invest in is yourself. So if you got 130 grand, sitting in a checking account, for example, eagles and cycling or anyone else, you have a ton of money sitting in a savings account or checking account, right, sitting in the bank and you're trying to save money and buying cheap food, then start taking some of that money and buying yourself organic food, homegrown food, healthy food, good food. If you need to get back into shape and you don't know how to do that, hire a physical trainer or a dietician to guide you, right? That's going to cost you money, but what you're doing is you're investing in yourself. That includes if you want to learn something, right? This is some of the information we talked about in our personal finance play that I saw a censor to. If you go to personal finance play that I saw a censor to, we talked a lot about that stuff, right? So if you want to learn something, take some of that money, the sitting in the bank, sign up for a course, learn something, learn programming, learn mathematics, learn a language, learn whatever you want to learn, right? Once you invest in yourself, then your health improves. That means you don't have to spend money if you get sick less if your health improves and health care costs are the number one reason of people going bankrupt, right? So you're preventing is preventative. You're preventing yourself from going under those types of financial pressures. You're learning something so you could always use that knowledge towards something, right? Let's say you want to learn bookkeeping. You can do your own bookkeeping. You can learn, do your own accounting. You can do your own taxes. You can do whatever, right? You want to learn how to invest, take an investment course, figure out how the stock market works and start managing your own money maybe, right? So invest in yourself, eat better food. That's one of the best places you can invest in. I've seen people take money and just keep on putting it in Wall Street. Meanwhile, they buy like stuff that I don't even consider considered to be food instead of buying healthy food because they're broke. To me, that's cuckoo. That's cuckoo. Alligot and alligot says this to eagle and cycling. Got to invest 10% just to taste. I agree. You need to risk a little bit, take a little bit of funds and just play with the market and see where it takes you. It's like learning how to play poker. You'll never know how to play poker unless there is money on the table, right? I've known people who say, oh, we play poker without money or without something on the line. Well, if there's nothing on the line to lose or gain, then you're not really playing poker. You're playing cards. It's a different game. It's a different thing. You could play for favors. If you live in a house, oh, you make little convert, make chips based on chores around the house that you need to do. A year has 52 weeks, and if you need to take out your garbage once every week, then make 52 chips tokens that represent taking out the garbage per week. If you're playing for chores around the house, distribute those 52 chips to people that are in the house. If there's two of you, each person gets whatever, 26 chips or four of you, each person gets 13 chips of taking out the garbage. And then make chips for other chores in the house, distribute them between people on the house and start playing poker. Oh, I raise you two weeks of taking out garbage, right? Whoever wins gets all those chips, and then they're allowed to give it out to people or something, or figure out another way to do it, right? You wouldn't care if you know the tech. The edgy, it sounds like you do a lot of buying and selling to show, do you mainly trade or do you invest and hold long term? Right now, I've mentioned to people it's a trader's market and family has been trading, lots of trading, lots of trading, like sometimes the portfolio, family's portfolio, all of a sudden 30% is liquidated. Fun stuff. Put it in S&P. Yeah, exactly. I was thinking Ethereum. You can invest 30 pounds just to understand the benefits of a good call. Ronnie, wheat stocks definitely crashed hard. Not sure why it did, but I'm holding a decent bag and won't sell. One of the reasons the cannabis stocks are under pressure because it's not legalized federally in the United States of America. So what that means, a lot of banks will not deal with them. A lot of investment companies will not deal with them because their cannabis is classified, schedule one substance without any medical benefit, which we know it's not true. States have legalized it, right? But what that means, it limits the amount of access they will have for funds. Some of them don't need it. They're cashflow positive. They're making mint money, right? So that's one of the reasons. Mind you, cannabis companies have been on a tear for the last two weeks. So we'll see where they go. And disclaimer, family still, even though liquidated half the positions blew them out or more, family is still holding certain things long on cannabis. Do your research on some and buy the ones you'd like. I'd say you start with privacy coins. Privacy coins, I agree with Pete. Adigeerani, a lot of the cannabis stocks jump because of supposedly the legislation to legalize cannabis in the United States that never materialized. Indeed, the Biden administration is probably probably one of the worst things to happen to the cannabis industry. A broker is a very personal choice, other God says. You have to have a good relationship with them and keep it local. If possible, start indeed Joe. I want to buy some beyond me a few years ago, but it was six pounds for two burgers, way too expensive for me at the time. I'm not sure what the price is like now. Yeah, I'm not sure. During the summer, last summer, we bought some of the sausages and they were reasonably priced. They weren't that expensive and they tasted good barbecue, like too good, like addictive good, and you knew it wasn't good for you. You could just feel it. MC like, Hey guys, what's up? What's going on? Back from front lines from the Alberta, Montana board yesterday. What an awesome experience. Awesome. Awesome. I wish I could join you. I wish I could join you. If it was summer, I might have gone down. I might have drove it drove it across. Come over to Alberta. Tell us what it was in our discord, MC Mike. If this was current events, I'd say let us know what it is. Scooty, I have a small retro video game collection. Nice. I used to buy and sell retro games as a side hustle, but I haven't scored anything for a while now. Yeah. Scooty. Wow. Some of those games are worth mint. Like they're worth really, their prices have gone through the roof. Ronnie, I'm saving cash because I plan on purchasing a property this year. Oh, nice Ronnie. I have the appetite of a buffalo right now. It's scary. Nice. Ronnie, you agree. People forget to invest in themselves. Yeah, 100% invest in yourself. Best place to invest in gang. Really yourself, your family, your community. Ronnie, take courses and further investment in learning for elevated career goals. Yeah. Scooty, I actually bought a piano recently, which I've wanted to learn to play for years, but I haven't touched it. Pianos, the pianos are fun. We've, for the longest time, are family at piano. Again, we went through periods. Some played it, some didn't. Allagot says, well, no favor of mine. I still have my Commodore 64 with games, but I could never sell it. Yeah, good idea, Allagot. Not selling it. Scooty, some guy gave me an NES on Facebook. Marketplace for free. Fully working and all nice. I got NES systems. Cheryl, Chicho, what do you think of side business investment ops like hard money lending or fact, factoring? I'm not sure what the factoring is. Hard money lending, I know. I have some issues with the housing issues associated with questionable flippers or landlords using hard money brokers, but otherwise can't quite assess whether it's actually decent and so, so thin, I guess. I understand you correctly. The lenders, in BC, we have them as well. There are lenders that will lend you money outside of banking, the big banks, right? So if you can't get money loaned to you to make a large person, purchase usually a property from a bank, then you can go to some of the secondary lenders, but they charge you a higher interest, right? So if you can get a mortgage with a bank at 5%, let's say, the secondary lenders, you can get it there at like 9%, right? Or 8%, which is a hefty, hefty amount of extra that you need to pay, right? It becomes dangerous because people are leveraging if that's what you're referring to, Cheryl. I've known people who've done it. They were lucky to be able to get out of that debt. Watch Alpha, Chico. Great afternoon from Brazil. Salutations, Brazil. Master Chico. I won't say master, just Chico. Wanted to ask you a question. I've heard Elon Musk speak about on a video. Do you think there will be some kind of universal basic income in the near future, especially with more and more automation of work? Sorry if this is a different or too much divergent point to discuss. Have a lovely day. No, it's on the ball. Watch Alpha. UBI, universal basic income is something that will be rolled out in certain places, right? It's problematic. I don't agree with it because what that's doing is making people dependent on a centralized system. And what's happening right now is centralized systems are collapsing, right? Faith in government is gone, right? And what most governments have shown is that they are completely draconian. So if you become a candidate for universal basic income, right? First thing you have to understand is you better have a side hustle. You better not just rely on this money for your life, for your family's life because what will happen and is already happening is decentralized powers will pass laws and make you jump through hoops to be able to get your monthly income, right? So what will happen is, let's say they want you all citizens who are on universal basic income to have a medical procedure. And if you don't agree, they will cut your funding, right? They will cut you off, which they have done in Canada to certain people, right? So it becomes problematic. Mainly I'm against universal basic income and I think it's a trap. It's going to lead to more centralization of power, okay? And it's one step towards enslavement of humanity. I think it's a bad idea. I think it's a bad idea. Smoky Joe, when you say family's portfolio, are you talking about your family's personal trading account? I'm talking about family. It's, I'm making it broad, okay? I'm making it broad because it really doesn't make a difference whose it is, how close they are to me, okay? I just say family. Ultima Series, nice. Nice. C64 back in 1980s. Nice, nice, nice. Gaming conversation going on. Even so, so cool. What is the difference between local and online stock brokers? Stock brokers, I think you just want to get the best stock broker you can. There are different brokers, though, for different things you want to buy and sell. Although God can directly, you know, can clarify what he meant with that. But in regards to Wall Street brokerage houses and stuff like this, you just want the one that charges the least amount of fees and you can do all the trading that you want, okay? MC, Mike, Chucho. I'll share some photos under the COVID-19 channel, maybe write about the experience too. Awesome, MC, Mike. That'll be great. I'm trying to keep track of what's going on all over Canada right now. I think a few people are on their discord page, right? Padre, padre, padre. How are you doing? Hey guys, the way I view financing is always trying to position myself a little bit better. Like, I know I have good times and bad times. So in the good times, I try to position myself better for the bad times. Well said. I, to make those bad times go smoother and make it easier to get back to the good times. Awesome. Well put, Padre. And paraphrasing that, preserving capital is very important and Padre continues. I gave my brother all my Nintendo 64 games at the beginning of 2020 and I just watched him go up and up and up and up, yeah, in value. Yeah, for sure. Lucky for me, I have a whole bunch of N64 games and consoles and controllers and accessories, right? I went through a whole major N64 buying spree in the early 2000s. I got a whole bunch of games and Sega Genesis and Sega Genesis and some other games. It's just early 2000s. I just went for it. I bought a whole bunch of stuff. I want it. Fun, fun, fun. Aligar, the Eagles are cycling. These days, old tech is God. It's the greatest weapon against tech giants. Nice. Cheryl, regarding factoring. Factoring is buying long-term receivables for one to two percent, not collection, but my brain keeps processing it as no stress collections. I don't know. I don't know about it, Cheryl. I don't know about it. If I'm reading this correctly, basically it would be like a GIC or something. You're buying something long-term to get one to two percent return. Is that what it is? I wouldn't personally, I would not put my money into anything that is giving one or two percent, because just personally, I can flip for more depending on the investments, right, or the markets I'm in. Some places, if you're talking about huge money, preserving capital is a great idea. One to two percent is okay as well, right? But inflation right now in the United States is seven and a half percent. That's what they're recognizing. Inflation is actually more like 15 to 20 percent. So if you're making one to two percent, it doesn't do anything, right? Watch Alpha. Thank you so much for answering. Very helpful. My pleasure, Alpha. I hope I'm wrong, but unfortunately, I think that's where UVI is going to lead to. It's not going to be good for the long term. Xander, UVI could also cause landlords to raise rents knowing their tenants have some extra cash coming in. Yeah. Yeah. It's bad. Like there's no good in UVI. It's only a bad date as a temporary relief, and the temporary relief will last maybe a few months at best, and then the devastation of UVI will kick in and it'll be exponential compound devastation as years go by. D5. D5, Web 3. Nice. Lucien. Hopefully under 80. Padre. Dungut man. Awesome. Padre. Scoody. I have an N64 with no controllers. I have extra controllers. Yeah. You need minimum four controllers for N64. Minimum, right? NC Mike. Okay, cool. If that doesn't work, I might store it on a file sharing platform provided link. I will try to stay away from Google. Cool. Joe Chicho. Andrew Yang makes a very compelling case for the need for UVI, given the fact that more and more jobs falling to automation appear to be inevitable. There will definitely need to be a shift in society to prevent it collapsing all together. Joe, Andrew Yang can kiss my ass. That guy is a clown and a half, and he's just the agent of the centralized power. Okay. One of the reasons we know this is because he wants Julien Assange persecuted. Okay. So Andrew Yang is just garbage and his reasons of UVI that I've seen talking about automation and stuff like this, that's just smoke and mirrors. The main reason Andrew Yang has been pushing UVI is because he wants more centralization of power and control over humanity. He's just a puppet. He's just another agent of the centralized power. He's delusional. Okay. Or he's just lying and ghouls. Jaded mask. How are you doing? Thoughts on low risk, betterment profiles investing as a chronologically anxious zoomer, chronically anxious zoomer. Thoughts on low risk, betterment profiles. Jaded mask. What is a low risk, betterment profile? No idea what that is. Is that self-improvement? I'm 100% for it. I'm 100% for it. Getting healthier, hiring a dietician or a personal trainer to get you in shape, joining groups. May they be gaming groups or sporting groups and stuff like this to have some exercise, cooking group to make better food. If that's what it is, I'm 100% for it. Taking classes to learn something new. Nice. I'll check it out. Just got some photos. Cheryl, if a company has a contract with an invoice for $10,000 on a net 30, but they need the cash flow, I'd buy the receivable for $9,900 and pocket 100 once paid. Numbers are a bit better than that. Okay. Okay. Now I know what you're talking about. Yeah. It's fine and dandy in good times, Cheryl. And when the receivables are sometimes large companies, they don't pay out for three months, three or four months. So you need to carry that debt for that long a period of time. And what happens if all of a sudden there's a hiccup in the markets, which there could be, and this is one thing that happened with Nortel networks in the late 1990s and 2000 when the tech bubble burst, Nortel networks was, as a Canadian company, it was one of the top companies in the world, tech companies in the world with the most amount of patents. It was considered to be the forerunner, to be the biggest large tech company in the world, right? And they had a lot of receivables out to multiple companies. And then the interest rates went through the roof. All of those companies or not all of them, many of them went bankrupt and all of those receivables became write offs, right? So you have to make sure you're not overextended with that type of deal. If you're taking on that buying, you're basically buying debt, right? You're basically buying debt if I understand it correctly. Scooty, I want to hoary mini pad, mini pad, but I don't want to spend 70 pounds on a controller. I don't know the hoary mini pad. Betterment is a portfolio investing site. Oh, really? Jaded mask. I don't know. Betterment. Jaded mask, if you're on Discord, link it up for us in personal finance. I'll take a look at it. I've never heard it before. Betterment. Cool. Now, see Mike, oh, I didn't see that. Okay. Let me put it in there. I'm gonna have to store. Okay, cool. You guys are loading up stuff on Discord. Nice, nice, nice. Fun personal finance. Good points and helpful. Thanks. My pleasure, Cheryl. Yeah. And that's the thing. You're buying debt, right? An interest rates are rising and a lot of people are leveraged. So it's a problem, right? Like, one of the things I can tell you is family is got out of any investment where there wasn't, they either didn't have a strong cash position, minimum strong cash position, but preferably had a positive cash flow, right? So because of interest rates going on the rise, a lot of companies are going to be seriously under pressure. And if they rise the way some people are predicting they're going to rise, basically you can kiss half the companies in the world goodbye. They're going to go bankrupt. Okay. Lucien, I have never bought stocks, only cryptos. The roller coaster is fun. Yeah. And it's the same deal, Lucien. Same deal. There are, I know people that have never bought stocks and they're trade cryptos up the yin and and I know people that only trade stocks on Wall Street and I've never dabbled in cryptos. And I know people that do both, right? Which is 100% fine. Pick a market you like and go crazy. One of the things though, the benefits of in Canada anyway, of trading certain stocks, thank you for the follow up feather. In Canada, we have something called the TFSA account, tax-free savings account, where all the trades in that account that occur are not subject to capital gains tax, right? So I know cryptos don't, no country offers that for cryptos, right? If they did, that'd be great, right? So the problem with trading stocks and cryptos that aren't in a type of account where you don't have to recognize the capital gains is you have to pay capital gains on your gains, which could be devastating, right? So just imagine you have a trading account where you can trade and no taxes on capital on your gains. That's where you want to be. That's where you want to be. Hell, the God says, if Facebook dies soon, I will dance naked through town with a sign, return to my face, my space. Awesome. And family almost what puts on Facebook today. Ashinri. First time chat, bog. Salutations. Welcome to our live stream. Hello, hello. I hope you're doing well. I don't have the market open right now, so I don't know what the Wall Street is doing right now, aching to check. By the way, I check the markets every day. I get up at 4.30, 5 o'clock the latest in the morning, go through a morning ritual, check all financials, check all financial news coming in, political news coming in, stuff like this. It's an amazing experience, gang. These are amazing times. This is our world is going through major changes. There are legacy companies, legacy systems that are completely collapsing. There's disruptive innovation that is taking over. And it is amazing watching the symphony take place. If you are interested in history, politics, economics, society, current events, I don't care what your interests are that are centered around humanity. These are interesting times to be alive. So much to consume. Elder God. And it's all information. Elder God. Actually, I never left MySpace. It's still active and a lot of my real music artists still use it. Cool, cool. I still have a MySpace account too. I don't know password or something on it. But for MySpace got nuked because he wouldn't sell out. From what I understand, Joe Chicho, I had no idea Yang supported prosecuting Assange. His views on Israel and Palestine also ran his New York mayor campaign into the ground when he was leading at one point. Yeah, I don't like Yang. I don't like any of those dams that were putting on a circus. But that's politics. Life is music. Life is music. Life is a symphony. Life is a symphony. Lots of amazing music. And we had music lyrics last week. I'll have those music lyric, what do you call it, lyrics, the stream up probably towards the end of the week. Probably towards the end of the week. Fun stuff. Shall we take a look at the market? Let's see what the market's doing. I'm going to look, Yang. I have to look. This is amazing times. Amazing times. Let's see where we're at. Oh, nice. Marking down. By the way, Yang, the reason I'm saying mark it down. So right now the Dow is down almost 400 points and the Nasdaq is down almost 100 points. And the reason I'm saying nice is because family has a lot of puts on a lot of companies or has puts on companies. So it's nice. It's nice. There are some call plays as well, but there are some put plays. Alla God. Best to die on your feet than bowing to the machine. Online. Online time. Online time. Yeah. Yeah. You don't, I think this is in regards to the UBI. We don't, you don't want to be dependent on. And it's not just UBI. One bit of financial advice I can give some, give you guys. And this is something I gave from the first videos we put out. Do not be dependent on the centralized system for your life. Okay. Do not do it because most central institutions are collapsing and they will continue to collapse. Confidence is gone. There's going to be turmoil in the markets and both on the political front and on the economic front. There is industries which will do well, but there's going to be a lot of problems. So be careful out there again. Be careful out there. Make sure you're not compromising yourself and your family and you're not putting yourselves, you're not overextending to a level where there will be a lot of pain for what you need to do. Oh my God. Sorry. I was referring to the old days of chichon and tunnel vision. Yeah. We were focused if you're, if that's what you're referring to regarding certain things, right? Regarding certain things, but interesting times, interesting times. Fun. Oh, I got a little bit of cookie here too. Check this out. It's like a chocolate. I'm going to break it. This has got like chocolate inside. This is a lot. This is not eating healthy, by the way, gang. And it's got macadamia nuts and caramel. And it's quite yummy. Beat says, have you done any research on tap water versus mineral water? In the past, I did. Depends where you live, right? Like we live in a place where the water is not bad. It's got a lot of chlorine. So we run filter. So we drink tap water, but we run it through a filter to get rid of the chlorine and some of the other whatever it picks up. In the past, you could just drink tap water. Many, many years ago when I was a kid, but water situation around the world is becoming worse and worse. Fresh water, Joe. What are some resources you would recommend for learning about economics, trading, a stock market? I would say the best thing, first time chat, then call. What? I would say, Joe, the best thing you can do is invest in investopedia is really good. investopedia.ca or .com. Here, let me see. Make sure I can find the link for you. Yeah, investopedia.com is really good. Okay. So you can, you should have this open and like the best way to go about it. We should do a stream where I sort of go through this with you guys. And I think we have, this website is really good. It's like a dictionary, right? So investopedia is good. And then I would recommend creating a watch list on a platform where you can track stocks, right? Create a watch list and go to that watch list on a daily or minimum weekly, minimum weekly, preferably daily, right? Make a watch list of like 10 stocks you want to follow. Start with five even or one or two, but at least have enough to where you're getting daily updates and news releases, right? So create a watch list of 10. I have multiple watch lists. Some of them have like dozens of companies on them. Some of them are categorized based on cannabis. Some of them are categorized based on mining. Some of them are categorized based on this, this, this short, long blah, blah, blah, right? And what I do in the mornings, I go to those watch lists and I check the news feed coming up, right? I also see when the their financials are going to be released, right? Their earnings are going to be released. And I try to keep track of what happens when the earnings are released to a stock and I read their minimum summary of their earnings report, right? Just to see what's going on. And if you break these things into watch lists based on categories, then you get a feel of what's happening in a certain industry, right? And that slowly, you'll start to understand the game at play and what's connected with what. And when you're reading these financials, their earnings report or the summary of the earnings, what you can do is look up certain terms in Investopedia, right? So for example, one of the base ones you have to look at is PE, price to earnings ratio. So open up Investopedia, go to or any other investment website, I just use Investopedia, it's good. Look up what PE means and read it. And that's all usually just ratios, right? So slowly you acquire knowledge and you'll get a feel of how things work. That's what I would recommend, Joe. That's what I would recommend. It's time consuming, but it's worth it. Hello, God, no, I was referring to the old stream with computer information on stream. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the screenshots. We'll do more of those, we will. Yeah, with the tables and stuff like this, as well as sharing the screen. Yeah, I want to do more of that with personal finance for sure. I want to do more of that with personal finance for sure. Compare the company to its self historically or to others in the same industry, both Lucien, both. You look at what the company's done over an extended period of time. So you look at the chart, right? And you can take a look at their earnings on a quarterly basis or a yearly basis. Are their earnings increasing, decreasing quarterly yearly? Is it a cyclic business where certain months of the year it goes down? It's less than other months and stuff like this, as well as how they're, what those companies are doing relative to other companies, their competition. That's extremely important as well, right? So both, both. Very important, very important. First time chat, Mr. Over, Creel, Kim, Covery, Alken. First time chat. Hello, how are you doing? A brutalizer name, Mr. Sanato, Sanor, Lala, Lana, Sanor, Lana, first time chat. Hello, hello. Hope you're doing well. Welcome to our live stream. We're almost towards the end. How are you? Happy Valentine's. Thanks. Happy Valentine's to you as well. Did you get any cards or cookies? This isn't a Valentine's cookie, but it's a cookie. I hope you're enjoying chocolate cookies or chocolate cookies or your favorite type of cookie. Yum. And some tea. Gang. Should we call the stream? It's about an hour and a half, a little bit more, but it might be a good time to just chill with what we talked about, because we don't want to really go into the politics aspect of things. The little chaos going on in the world. The crypto holders exercise the same type of magnitude of influence over the organization as a shareholder would? No. No. There are whales out there and they definitely do influence the price of a certain crypto or they can. There are certain cryptos out there that the majority of shareholders have an interest in how that crypto behaves. And they do manipulate the price of the cryptos and pump them down and stuff like that, but that occurs in any market. But cryptos are not a company unless a company is adopting a certain type of crypto to be its main primary fundraising mechanism. So it's not the same. It's not the same. As far as I know anyway, as far as I know, is there any cryptos you had in mind, Lucien? Like Bitcoin and Ethereum and stuff. They're not the major holders of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero. They don't really have a say in how the developers do, but the holders don't. Thanks for the perspective of all these people. My pleasure. As far as I know, Lucien, there might be cryptos out there that do, but I wouldn't personally be involved unless I love their business model and you'd be considered to be a seed investor in the company. That's the way I would look at it. If there's anything out there that the holders of the coin, they're almost like securities basically have a say in how the business operates. Wealth gang, why Google search engine is so bad with results? Is this intentional? Yes, it's intentional because it's Google that's censored. Duck duck go for the wind. I use duck duck go for 99% of my searches. Okay, because it's not censored. Google is censored. It's and most platforms that are censored, they will be dying platforms soon enough. That's one of the reasons Facebook collapsed. That's one of the reasons Twitter's collapsing. It's because they censored so many people that their business model was to bring more people into the onto their platforms, but they got into the business of kicking people off their platforms. Oops, their business model changed. Time to short the crap out of the company. Right? Because they got too big for their own knickers. Right? Hilarious, hilarious, hilarious, hilarious. Gang, let's call the stream. Let's call the stream. Fun stuff, fun stuff. Thank you for being here, everyone. If you want to know what this work is about Lucian, I'm thinking about influence when one has governance tokens versus a typical level one blockchain. I guess that holders influence depends how the crypto is programmed. Yeah, if they're involved, because a lot of the whales were some of the early adopters of that crypto as is obvious. Some of the early adopters of those cryptos would have been some of the developers of the crypto, right? So I don't know, you can say the main holders can control what happens with that crypto, but because we're in the early stages of this, the majority of the whales are the developers of that crypto, so they influence it. So one doesn't be get the other. It's just we have one because some of these cryptos are in the early stages of development. I hope, I don't know if I made myself clear on that, but and that's as far as I know, there's like what 15,000 cryptos out there now. So there might be some that are outside of the parameters that I'm thinking about, right? But in the open market, ideal market, the holders of the crypto should not have a say in how the crypto functions. And as far as I know, there haven't been, there's been people that have voted on splitting like Bitcoin Cash and stuff this happened years ago, where some of the developers voted on splitting certain cryptos to go in a certain way, right? Classic Ethereum, classic disk, blah, blah, blah. I don't think that was based on how many coins they had. I think that was based on their opinion, based on a developer, Joe Chisho, who are some of your favorite content creators who focus on economics and trading. Martin Armstrong, okay, Armstrong economics. Wolf Street is really good. Zero hedge, I follow. Paul Craig Roberts is really good. Michael Hastings, I follow, even as you can tell, I don't, I agree with everything they all have to say. I like to get a nice perspective of what's going on. Michael Hastings is really good. And following economics means you have to follow politics. So there's a lot of political people that I follow, such as Pepe Escobar talking about Asia and one row of one belt and connects it all. And there's so much, it just expands from the Durand talking about the politics economics of Nord Stream 2 and Turkmenistan, going all over the place. So you have to have a really large perspective. But when it comes to specifically economics, Martin Armstrong blog, fantastic. Wolf Street is really good. Zero hedge is really good. What's the other one? Oh man, I forgot the other one. Yeah, those are the ones that come to mind right now. I have to look at my bookmarks. I was looking at my bookmarks and I go, okay, check that one out, check that one out, check that one out, check that one out. And I could, you know, I link up a lot of stories from a lot of those sites on our discord page as well in the personal finance and economics folders as well. Crazy bro Athens, how are you doing? I hope everyone's well. Hi everyone, hope you are all doing fine. Indeed, indeed. We're coming in at the end of the stream. And gang, thank you for being here. Thank you for the discussion.

It is in large part because of your support that we're able to do this as well as the support we're getting on Twitch. Say Nor Lana. Hi, hope you are well. What are some of the stuff beginners should study about if you want to trade stocks? Look up any stock in any financial website and then they'll have some of the metrics of that website, of that stock, like for example the PE ratio, the PEG yield, number of outstanding shares, market cap. Look up all that stuff and take those words or those ratios and look up online what they mean. So first order of business in getting into trading stocks is to understand what the terminology is. You have to learn the language. So that's what you need to do. And also create a watch list, follow those stocks that you're interested in and read up on the news that's being their news feed, especially read up their earnings reports and stuff like this.
