@BackStCrawler @Johnny_LaRuex shorting is a specialist game.

@Johnny_LaRuex @ClemChambers Sentiment in the PM sector changes on a dime. A few months ago we were seeing videos of gold rallying to $8k+ this cycle, then it was $6k, now ‘it’s all over folks’. Anyone shorting PMs here could be in for a nasty surprise over the coming months.

@gothburz Ive always been way early too. Just wait, as you get older the future will catch up with you. Btw, 401k is the future too.

My net worth peaked at $1.2 million. None of it was real. I don't mean that philosophically. I mean it was located on servers that have since been turned off. I own eleven properties in the metaverse. Three in Decentraland. Four in The Sandbox. Two in Voxels. One in Otherside. And a beachfront villa in Horizon Worlds that I bought for $214,000 because Mark Zuckerberg called it "the next frontier." The frontier closed last week. It's a mobile app now. Last year I mass DM'd 340 people the phrase "you don't understand how early we are." I have since stopped doing that. Not because I was wrong. Because most of them blocked me. I got into metaverse real estate in November 2021. Everyone was buying. Someone paid $450,000 to be Snoop Dogg's neighbor. In a video game. With no legs. The avatars didn't have legs. I thought that was bullish. "The legs are coming," I told my Discord. "Legs are a roadmap item." Three hundred people reacted with rocket emojis. I called myself a "digital land baron." I put it in my Twitter bio. I put it in my LinkedIn headline. I said it on a podcast that had eleven listeners. Three of them were bots. The rest were my alts. My virtual property has more square footage than my actual apartment. My actual apartment has furniture. Location, location, location. My most valuable asset was a plot next to a virtual Gucci store. Gucci left in 2023. The store is still there. Nobody's in it. It's like a mall in Ohio but with worse graphics and no food court. I held. Diamond hands. That's what we said. "Diamond hands." It means refusing to sell while your investment loses 94% of its value. We turned financial paralysis into a personality trait. A guy in my Discord paid $2.4 million for a 618-parcel estate in Decentraland. Prime district. High foot traffic. I asked him what "foot traffic" meant when the platform had 38 daily active users. He said I didn't understand the technology. I didn't. I still bought more. We had a DAO. A decentralized autonomous organization. That means we voted on decisions. There were nine of us. Three never showed up. Two voted on everything without reading it. The other four were me and my alts. We voted to "acquire strategic parcels." The vote passed unanimously. I voted four times. My portfolio peaked at $1.2 million. I told everyone. I made a spreadsheet. I projected 40x returns by 2025. I made a pitch deck. The pitch deck had a slide that said "WE ARE BUILDING THE DIGITAL ECONOMY." The slide had a rocket emoji. That was my entire financial model. In 2023 I bought a Bored Ape for $189,000. It's worth $14,000 now. I don't talk about the Ape. I still use it as my profile picture. People ask me about it. I say "I'm long-term bullish." Long-term bullish means I can't sell it without crying in a Panera. My mom asked me what a Bored Ape was. I said "digital art on the blockchain." She asked why it cost more than her car. I said "you don't understand Web3." She said "I understand you live in a studio apartment." She's not in my Discord. Justin Bieber bought one for $1.3 million. It's worth about $90,000 now. I felt better about mine after I heard that. That's community. WAGMI. We're All Gonna Make It. We said that every day. In the group chat. While the floor dropped. While the volume dried up. While 95% of all NFT collections went to zero. We're all gonna make it. None of us made it. But we said it with conviction and a laser-eye profile picture. That counts for something. It doesn't. But we said it did. That's decentralized consensus. Meta spent $84 billion on the metaverse. I need to say that again. $84 billion. More than the GDP of Luxembourg. More than the GDP of Iceland, Luxembourg, and Malta combined. They spent it on a platform where the avatars had no legs, the graphics looked like a 2006 Wii game, and the peak user count was lower than the lunch rush at a Chipotle in Des Moines. They just pulled Horizon Worlds from VR headsets. It lives on as a mobile app. My beachfront villa is now a mobile app. Location, location, location. Zuckerberg renamed the entire company for this. Facebook became Meta. A $900 billion company changed its legal name because the CEO watched Ready Player One and said "I want that." Reality Labs lost $10 billion in 2021. $14 billion in 2022. $16 billion in 2023. $18 billion in 2024. $19 billion in 2025. That's not a strategy. That's a speedrun. They laid off 1,500 Reality Labs employees this year. Shut down three VR studios. Killed Supernatural. Put the entire VR social vision in a casket and said "we're pivoting to AI and wearables." The pivot took four years and $84 billion. I pivoted too. I'm an AI real estate investor now. I bought a virtual plot in an AI-generated world that doesn't exist yet. The founder said it was "the intersection of spatial computing and large language models." I don't know what that means. I gave him $40,000. He has a whitepaper. It's 47 pages. I read the title and the tokenomics section. The tokenomics section is a pie chart. I love pie charts. They make everything look like a plan. The project has a roadmap. Q1: "Build community." Q2: "Launch beta." Q3: "Scale ecosystem." Q4 is blank. Q4 is always blank. That's where the exit scam goes. My accountant asked me to value my metaverse portfolio for tax purposes. I said $1.2 million. He said "current market value." I said $6,400. He stared at me for eleven seconds. I know because I counted. He asked if I had any other investments. I showed him my NFTs. He stared for longer. I told him they were "cultural artifacts with long-term provenance." He asked if I'd considered a 401k. I told him a 401k was "legacy finance." He told me to leave his office. The metaverse is dead. I don't accept that. I am a digital land baron. I own eleven properties across four platforms. I have a beachfront villa in a mobile app, a plot next to an empty Gucci store, and a cartoon monkey that cost me more than my actual car. Location, location, location. The location is nowhere. But I'm early. I'm always early. That's the same as being wrong except you get to say it with confidence.

@chindichor There is always another bus coming.

@ClemChambers Thanks Clem. Btw I was on the way to the gold shop today to sell wondering whether I was making a mistake. I wondered if I could consult anyone whether I was making a mistake and you came to mind first. When I was back seen your substack and sale of gold and I was glad I did.

@Ian63143239 @amazing_physics LLMs are not LMMs (large math models ( just made that acronym up)) AI does error, people do stupid. Not sure which is worse. Well I probably am, errors can be fixed.

@ClemChambers @amazing_physics So true Clem What worries me is if significant decisions are being made with AI From Australia 🌏🦘

This is a 1000-gram iron bar. In its raw form, it’s worth around $100. If it’s turned into horseshoes, its value rises to about $250. If it’s made into sewing needles, its value jumps to roughly $70,000. If it’s crafted into watch springs and gears, it can be worth around $6 million. And if it’s transformed into precision laser components, like those used in lithography, its value can reach $15 million. Your value is not defined only by what you are made of, but by how well you shape your potential into something extraordinary.

@chindichor Gold is for War, but you have to sell it for war, as Russia just did.

@ClemChambers When I discovered Polan bought gold as recently as decmber and sold it last week for defence spending I thought something was up. This is like Poland Central bank trading the market

youtube.com/watch?v=SAqCLu… This is a great video that I did with Clem Chambers. He provided some great insight to the Silver, Oil and Copper markets. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Please follow me for more thanks

@thedailysplanet It wasnt me I didnt do it. I guess thats just a substack thing, but Ill look into it!

Most investors don’t lose all at once. They bleed out slowly — bad habits kill. These 5 mistakes will financially starve you if you don’t fix them. Otherwise you are not an investor, you are the exit liquidity. open.substack.com/pub/clemishere…

You’re not investing. You’re being farmed.

@casuales12 @bankofengland price takers for sure

@ClemChambers clowns at BOE come to mind @bankofengland

We will be able to seperate dumb central banks from smart ones. Dumb ones will increase interest rates because of the inflation caused by higher oil. Cutting your leg off because you have a sore toe is not a strategy.

Scientists discovered a radioactive element that shouldn’t exist on Earth. Every atom destroys itself. It was first found inside nuclear reactors and now powers satellites in space. Some even wondered if it could be used in nuclear weapons. Promethium is one of the strangest elements ever discovered. Watch: youtu.be/rFqleKHqYTg

@NirenMichael Direction is easy, timing is very hard

Follow up question: If you believe that silver/gold and miners will go lower--perhaps much lower , why not sell some (all?) now and re enter at what would be considered a lower risk entry point from a TA stand point? Most of us think support (for silver) is at the low 70s or even lower. If this is the case, the miners will decline dramatically even from here. Why not sell and re-enter when the signals scream 'buy'?? @DonDurrett @juniorminingpro @ClemChambers @AmandaVandyke13 @Sorenthek @TheGoldAdvisor @IJCarrasco @DVSignals @GoldForecast @TheNextBigRush @MilesFranklinCo @badcharts1 @peter_krauth @LynAldenContact @NorthstarCharts @TaviCosta @PeterGrandich @RealRickRule @duediligenceguy @Oliver_MSA @silverguru22 @barometerca @mbateman @SteveBarton101 @ASX__Trader @capnek123 @DaveHcontrarian @PalisadesRadio @KarelMercx @finding_finance @gnoble79 @GaryBohm5
