Kevin O’Leary says most “successful” entrepreneurs are still one bad day away from broke. On The Iced Coffee Hour he laid it out straight: the real milestone isn’t a big net worth on paper. It’s $5 million liquid in T-bills. That’s the number where your family is safe no matter what happens. Everything else is just theater. He argues you should grind hard for that first $5M in pure cash, stay disciplined, and only then start playing with stocks and other assets. Most people never get there, they look rich but can’t actually raise serious cash when shit hits the fan. As a guy building, this one hit different. The idea that true freedom comes from boring, safe liquidity instead of flashy assets feels brutally honest. We chase “rich” vibes while ignoring real security. Liquidity isn’t sexy, but it’s the actual superpower when markets crash or opportunities appear. This conversation genuinely recalibrated how I think about money goals. What’s the net worth number that would actually make you feel “I’ve made it” — and why?

Last day of vacation? Let’s rip some evolving skies.

Joe Biden literally wrote a memo telling staff that he’d be disappointed in them if they missed family milestones because of work.

The amount of linguistical gymnastics this adjuster is trying to do to wiggle out of paying for this roof is unbelievable. I'm waiting for the guy to break out the game twister with all the contorting he is doing. State farm and their practices are beyond corrupt.

A month after the CEO of the largest bank in Russia publically begged both the Kremlin and the Central Bank to intervene to stop Russians from draining their bank accounts, depositors across Russia are unable to pull out cash.

Pokémon cards are up 1,350% since 2020 and crypto money is fueling the next leg higher. Logan Paul flipped a single Pikachu card from $5.3 million to $16.5 million. Now every 20-year-old with $50 thinks they're the next one. People are stampeding stores, running bots to clear out online inventory, and huddling in parking lots to split card hauls. Analysts are already using words like "frothy" and "bubbly." The Pokémon Company keeps dropping new sets every few months and just launched 30th anniversary products, so the hype machine isn't slowing down. Somewhere between nostalgia and speculation, a children's card game became a legitimate asset class. Source: CNBC

These same people were doing backflips at their graduation last week.

When you’re wondering why your degree doesn’t seem to mean anything, remember this video. We give graduation papers to anyone.

I don't wanna live around these people My fatigue is through the roof

I taught at a school like this, and I would always give the kids doing this a Gran Torino Clint Eastwood stare because I knew 95% of them had a 3rd-grade reading level and were only graduating because our principal threatened our jobs if we failed them.

@factpostnews On national bee day, no less. Bees are an ecological and economic pillar of modern agriculture, responsible for pollinating roughly one-third of the global food supply. Somedays, it really looks like they're trying to kill as many people as possible.
