Bc he was publicly trying to make AI trades go down so he could make money. It was seen as manipulation. Especially if you’re on the other side of that investment.

Intermittent fasting and working out while fasted absolutely spiked my cortisol and caused me to have a water pocket form under my retina. Yes.

Went to see a retina specialist 6x before having a laser shined in my eye to burn it out.

Believe whatever you want.

CoryG always got some kind of fad. He’s good energy but I’d proceed with that idea with caution.

I tried his anabolic fasting program before and it nearly made me blind after getting CSR in my right eye bc my cortisol levels spiked so much.

Kyle Busch says he and his wife Samantha lost $10.4 million in 16 months due to a financial scheme involving an insurance policy that they believed would provide them with an annual income of $800,000 after Busch retired from racing.

Only took a day for an industry insider with access to the IUL illustrations to do a deep dive as to how @KyleBusch lost $8.5m on these IUL policies... High level deets... - 4 IUL @pacificlife PDX/2 policies - Likely $75-100m of death benefit ($62m on 2 policies) - $10.9m of cash premiums paid - 12x (!!!) higher cost of insurance due to being a NASCAR driver - Policy design that didn't leave $1 of commission on the table for Agent Rod Smith - Policy that was designed to lose 90% of its value to policy charges in the first 10 years. - Crediting rate of only 1.5% for 3 years b/c the agent left the cash value in a fixed cash account. - 3 policies lapsed despite $10.9m of premiums paid and a "6.1% policy performance" through 2023 H/T to @lifeproductrev for writing this up and making it public

They crushed it, and raised guidance.

But the valuation can only be stretched so far.

PLTR just announced a “fellowship program” designed to give an alternative to 4 year college’s as well. Pretty interesting concept when you read into it

It seems that they are trying to make prices so high that we will all demand subsidies.


I believe the republicans only plan is to let the insurance market self implode on itself until there’s no other choice but to completely change it. No one is going to come to an agreement until then. We’re almost there
United was easy to deal with when I flew with my rifle but it’s going to be airport dependent as well. For me, that was Memphis and Austin TX.

I did not and would not suggest using TSA locks. One of the requirements is only you have access to the locks. Also, put an AirTag in your case and make sure your ammo is in its original case if you’re flying with that too.

This, exactly. Same reason we’re involved with the Ukraine conflict too. We want to be in position in these countries to make them dependent and stay dependent on the US dollar since they are very resource rich areas.

I have the same facet arthritis in my back. Yes it’s permanent but it’s not debilitating. Some days are good some days are bad. Just depends on if you held your nose right or not. It’s more limiting and he will def be feeling it after his career.
