Gold holders will lose as they figure out what Warren Buffett Is Doing
2026-02-22 | Economic Ninja
🥈 Gold peaked 2011-2012 despite money printing since; it lags inflation, not hedges it. Static holders miss cycle gains Buffett captures with $382B cash.
📊 Berkshire net seller 12 quarters, holds $1.2T sector-leading cash in treasuries as stocks look expensive. Cash kings win crashes—gold sits idle.
⚠️ 99% gold holders think winning with no benchmark; Buffett's moves show they'd earn more cycling assets. Don't chase $8k gold—position cash now.
💰 Gold miners up 6-7x in 3 years for early buyers, but sell into strength like speaker plans at 60% cash. Market longest run in 70 years—crash incoming.

Don’t Get Stuck in an Education Loop
2026-02-22 | This Will Make You Rich
🥈 Endless degrees: high school to PhD, colleges profit from fear of real work. Break the loop—test jobs first.
📊 Master's pushed for more money, doctorate to "run department." Reality: degrees often unused in careers.
⚠️ Education paralysis: finish one degree, fear next step, repeat. Work experience reveals if field fits before more debt.
💰 Colleges sell "next level = success," but doom loop delays wealth building. Prioritize real-world tests over credentials.
If you don't pivot in 2026 you will miss huge financial gain
2026-02-21 | Economic Ninja

🚫 The Laziness Lie: Poor people aren't poor because they're lazy. They're trapped by environment and educational blindspots they didn't choose.
💬 Your Network is Your Net Worth: Hang with people going nowhere? You'll stay there. Surround yourself with ambitious builders and your trajectory changes automatically.
🏫 School System Reality: Public education produces employees, not entrepreneurs. Business owners pay less tax by design — the system is rigged to keep you on the W-2 hamster wheel.

🚗 The Luxury Car Lie: "They only go up," said the dealer who started in 2012. He's never seen a recession. He's never watched rich people stop buying toys when their portfolios crash.
🏌️ The Golf Pro Lesson: Same dealer got laid off as a golf pro during the Great Recession. His own words: "Rich people don't golf when there's a recession." So why would they buy Lambos?
📉 Depreciation Reality: Cars are investments "until you have to sell them." Then they're depreciating assets with high carrying costs masquerading as status symbols.

🚫 Cash Hoarding is Fear: "Safe" cash saving is often just fear of loss wearing a disguise. You hit a ceiling savers can never break through.
💡 Emotion Destroys Returns: 99% of investment losses aren't from picking wrong — they're from panic selling at bottoms and chasing at tops. The asset isn't risky; your psychology is.
🚀 The 20% Rule: Out of every $100 saved, put $20 to work. Even 10% on $10 is just $1 — but it's a WIN. And wins build the investing muscle.
