Fascinating interview with David M. Walker (@DavidMWalker7) He ran the numbers for the U.S. government under Clinton, Bush, and briefly Obama Here’s what we discussed: I believe this is EXACTLY why they don’t teach financial literacy in schools They don’t want you to see the truth Most Americans would be furious The facts; They exclude food and energy from “inflation” Makes sense… Who needs food and electricity, right? Social Security? Projected to run out of money around 2032 After a lifetime of paying in Retirement accounts? Taxed… right when you need the money most And somehow… Financial literacy still isn’t taught in schools Coincidence? Quick question: Is this incompetence… Or design? Because the outcome is the same: Work hard Pay taxes Hope Then retire… And realize… After inflation and taxes… Most Americans will never retire. Meanwhile… The wealthy use: Roth IRA Backdoor Roth IRA And… Buy. Borrow. Die. No selling = no taxes No income = no income tax Two systems One for them One for you Watch the full interview 👇 m.youtube.com/watch?v=VT4QMC…

Everything comes down to supply and demand. Too much supply and anything becomes worth less. That includes college degrees. In 1970, only about 11% of Americans age 25+ had a bachelor’s degree. Today it’s roughly 40%. At the SAME time… college tuition exploded roughly 3000%. So degrees became MORE common… while becoming dramatically MORE expensive. And after all that debt… most colleges still won’t teach you how money works. They won’t teach you how wealthy families use assets, leverage, depreciation, and tax laws to build wealth. Maybe instead of going deeply into debt for oversupplied degrees… people should focus more on owning assets with limited supply. Maybe THAT’S why they don’t teach you how money works in school. If they did… you might realize the system itself starts looking like a Ponzi scheme. #BeSmartPayZeroTaxes

@RJEastHartford I’m sorry Mark is not working today. Here is the recording on the YouTube which includes the positions he holds. The information is also in Be Smart Pay Zero Taxes. Thank you! youtu.be/prg3QGbGDHw?si…

@markjquann I want to open, consolidate my online brokerage accounts. The intro to your course gives the name of the online investment/brokerage account you use, I forgot the name? Can you pass along please? Thank you.

“Mark, what age would you start teaching kids investing?” “I’d start talking to kids about investing around age 6. Open a custodial account and show them what they OWN. Buy stocks they actually know so they understand what they are doing and WHY they are doing it. If your family shops at Costco… buy Costco stock. If they use Apple products… own Apple. Ask them if they also want to buy Amazon stock. Teach them about companies like Nvidia and Broadcom so they understand what AI companies are powering computers, phones and cars. Teach them to own Visa, Mastercard and American Express and explain how wealthy families use credit cards for perks, luxury lounges and first class upgrades… while fully paying it off each month… Just the perks. ZERO interest. Then teach them to be charitable… but also teach them how wealthy families strategically use margin loans to donate to churches and charities while keeping their assets compounding. Teach them to BUY forever and NEVER sell. Teach them how to legally avoid capital gains taxes through BUY, BORROW, DIE. And yes… I’d also teach them that 401(k)’s are a scam created by big government and Wall Street to keep many Americans working until 65 or 70 while paying taxes for decades. Most kids are taught to work for money. I’d teach them to OWN assets.” #BeSmartPayZeroTaxes

@zellieimani So the HVAC tech in your attic working in 110° heat should help pay off the loans of someone who spent 4 years studying liberal arts and correcting pronouns?

I paid off my undergraduate loans. I still support canceling student debt. You don’t need to personally benefit from something to know it’s the right thing to do.

@alanmiller2004 I agree. At least 80% like at Twitter….

Why not terminate the other 50%?

@PatriotPosseman True

@markjquann We're half-way done!

What is your first thought?

The PERFECT PORTFOLIO pipeline: Age 9: Learn how money works Age 10: Start investing Age 12: Understand compounding Age 14: Start a business Age 18: Learn Buy, Borrow, Die Age 21: Buy your first house Age 23: Rent it out and buy another Age 25: Use leverage to acquire assets Age 30: Build the 5 Pillars • Stocks & ETFs • Real Estate • Life Insurance • Bitcoin/Crypto • Precious Metals Age 35: Retire on passive income. Find your purpose. Give back. Age 50: Teach your kids the same system Age 60: Pass assets tax efficiently to the next generation Create charitable foundations and multigenerational impact Most people are taught to WORK for money. We teach people to OWN assets… BORROW against them… and let compounding create freedom, legacy, and generational change. How does this sound compared to traditional financial advice? #BeSmartPayZeroTaxes

@usedgov Dedicated to teaching pronouns…. But the kids can’t read or write. DEFUND THE DEPARTMENT OF INDOCTRINATION

Teachers are dedicated. 📕

All parents should know this… econlib.org/econlog/adam-s…

Thank you Elizabeth Warren for explaining the BUY, BORROW, DIE strategy. 😂 Jeff Bezos doesn’t sell stocks. He borrows against them. Why? Selling triggers taxes. Borrowing avoids capital gains taxes AND income taxes. So why don’t more ordinary Americans use the same strategy? Buy stocks. Never sell. Once you have over $2,500… borrow against them using margin. It IS that simple. Why are YOU not using the same strategy? #BeSmartPayZeroTaxes

@ewarren @1CoastalJournal Ordinary Americans can use the exact same strategies… If you can’t beat em…

Our government isn’t broken. It works great for billionaires. For Big Pharma. For Wall Street. For corporations that can hire lobbyists. It's rigged for the wealthy and well-connected. We need to build a better system—one that works for working people.

Classical Learner is a world class education FAR better than public schools… and it’s only about $50 a month. Homeschooled students routinely outperform public school students academically… often scoring significantly higher on standardized tests and reading levels. And despite the myth that homeschool kids “lack socialization”… many studies show they often perform BETTER socially because they interact with people of different ages instead of being trapped in age based institutional systems all day. Meanwhile many public schools continue producing: • declining reading and math scores • skyrocketing anxiety and depression • record behavioral problems • massive student debt pipelines • and kids graduating without understanding money, taxes, investing, entrepreneurship or critical thinking Parents are finally realizing… just because something is “free” doesn’t mean the cost isn’t enormous. Classical Learner is building thinkers, leaders and entrepreneurs… not future debt slaves. Don’t let a broken education system destroy your child’s unlimited potential. Be sure to follow @ClassicLearner… I’ll be teaching your kids the same strategies wealthy families teach THEIR kids.

Most people spend their entire lives working for money… without ever learning how money actually works. That’s why I wrote Be Smart Pay Zero Taxes. Over the next several months I’m going to break down all 48 chapters… one video at a time. But first… the dedication. This book was written for ordinary Americans. 🇺🇸 Be sure to follow for the next 48 chapters. #BeSmartPayZeroTaxes

The IRS shouldn’t exist. Income taxes… then hundreds of other hidden taxes… Then they print and steal wealth with the hidden tax of inflation Middle Americans are becoming slaves to BIG govt paychecks and then to pay all THEIR pensions and health insurance after THEY stop working Meanwhile they manipulate the inflation rate seven different ways to try and hide the real rate as they borrow from the Social Security trust fund to pay their bills, and fill it with IOUs All while ignoring hundreds of billions of dollars a fraud and theft from Medicare We need to defund the department of education And then dismantle and defund the IRS

@markjquann @SenWarren There is a statutory cap on damages. Trump is trying to go billions of dollars above that cap.

Donald Trump thinks the U.S. Treasury is his personal piggy bank. Let's be clear: the President is trying to steal $10 BILLION of taxpayer money - before a court rules. This is a massive, unprecedented scandal. Congress must stop him. I have a bill for that.

@KarlRovey @SenWarren Thanks… Wow, didn’t know that. That is great news… seeing consequences for govt employees

@markjquann @SenWarren The employee who leaked it was fired. That same employee also leaked Hunter Biden's tax info.
