@Ma1Dix0n @MartinSLewis Thanks

@MartinSLewis here you go

I was sent this in a press release today. I haven't validity checked it, but they converted wages into international dollars using World Bank Purchasing Power Parity (PPP)" (source: moorepay). I thought it was interesting...

@iRacing Thanks for continuing to improve.

Two years ago, we embarked on a journey to rebuild our sim UI, assembling a team of engineers, designers, and UX professionals to tackle this challenge. At long last, the initial version of the UI is complete, and we are thrilled to be sharing it with you all in Season 4!

The harsh reality of a 9 to 5 existence.

@MartinSLewis What gets me about all of this is how in this case 20k is to be cut. 20k today is not yesterday's 20k. It should at least be increased with inflation after several years. Same with inheritance tax exemption. Why is this not highlighted and spoken about?

Today's Poll: Should the cash ISA allowance be cut? The Chancellor is rumoured to be cutting the tax free savings allowance from the current £20,000 PER TAX YEAR. What's CLOSEST to what you'd say is a fair limit balancing benefit to savers v cost to state?

@BitcoinRachy Forget about Bitcoin for now. Tell him to go down the rabbit hole asking the question. What is MONEY? Bitcoin should naturally follow on. BUT only if he actually learns about Money.

I had dinner with a client tonight. I talked his ear off on how Bitcoin is the best investment for the next 20 years. He said Bitcoin can go to zero and would rather invest in VOO because it’s GUARENTEED growth. What would you say to him? He wants public feedback.

@iRacing VR all the way. Quest 3 atm. Not enough immersion on flat screen.

One monitor? Three monitors? VR? How do you sim race? Let's see some setups 👇

@ZubyMusic Had the inflation convo with my 11yr old. In short same house same ketchup. Value of money you work hard for is always going down. Beat inflation!!

When you finally realise that the prices of things aren't really going up, but the value of your currency is going down, you will see the world differently.

@saylor Please stress Bitcoin only as a reserve.

I have been invited to the Digital Assets Summit at the White House this Friday, hosted by the President.

@valuetainment So all the politicians throwing insults at each other in public being recorded for all to see are criminals and should be prosecuted. Okaaaaaay?

60 Minutes: "Is posting an insult a crime?" German prosectors: "Yes" 60 Minutes: "Is it a crime to repost a lie?" German prosecutors: "Yes"

@iRacing Click and wait for that 1 car that always makes the rest of the grid wait. Wtf are you doing. We need a drop in count down after 90% of the grid have joined.

What are you doing before you click the button?

@UNIVERSE_FEEDS @InternetH0F Stop sharing this crap.

@InternetH0F She chose her vacation over her husband's funeral 😳

That's a real man right there

@hodgetwins And this ai is what our future non thinking selves will take as gospel. Race is only one aspect! Results are only as good as what the input is. And with all the incorrect articles and information out there on the Internet training ai 😶. It's an obvious long term f£#k up

Grok doesn’t like white people

Great move. Just read "The Anxious Generation" by Jonathan Haidt. Touching on the damage social media has on kids. Let our children be children and not a means for corporations. Parents here need to take accountability and see what THEY are allowing by giving unrestricted access.

I am not in the same situation but thankfully parents, siblings and a handful of friends listened. The rest are still numb to educating and would rather the struggle then spend a few hours to understand. We choose our paths after a certain age. It's not on you. You prob tried, tried and tried again.

Watching family members financially struggle when they know you're sitting on a small fortune of #Bitcoin has probably been the hardest part of hodling for me. They've never asked me for help because they know why I'm not selling any, and they also know they ignored my financial advice to buy Bitcoin for years, but it's still tough, really tough. I find out through my siblings just how bad off my parents both are individually, they won't tell me themselves because they don't want me to feel obligated to help. It's been especially rough for me this cycle knowing that I have the money to make all their problems go away but I can't sell right before we go parabolic, I worked too hard to get this far and I'm not cashing out right before the rocket blasts off. I constantly feel selfish for this even though I know I didn't make their bad financial decisions for them. I plan on helping them out down the road but this just isn't the right time. Am I the only one struggling with this? It's a feeling I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy and lately I constantly feel like I'm on the verge of crying over it...

@GaryGensler @SECGov It is very concerning how your passionate MIT lectures were contradicted when you came to the SEC. Your stance on ETH for example. Your affiliation with FTX, and Sam BF gave the ENTIRE industry trust in a scam. It is deeply worring that there were no repercussions to the SEC.

On January 20, 2025 I will be stepping down as @SECGov Chair. A thread 🧵⬇️

@damonimani @elonmusk Uk I see Harris at the top if Trump Rally is googled. Google Harris Rally and you see no Trump at the top. Duck duck go renders more accurate results

@elonmusk Google Denmark gives accurate results. They’re only doing it in U.S. Makes the election interference even more obvious.

Just did a search for “Trump rally” on Google and Kamala was the top result!

AI is getting out of hand. There are some insane videos being made using Luma AI and Midjourney. Here are 10 hilarious examples: 1. Game of Thrones Festival

@SNICKERSUK I'm noticing lately less nuts. Please please stop this and give us what you are renowned for. Nuts!

Prime Minister of Italy spitting facts 🔥

@MartinSLewis Why we accept inflation should exist? Why is the target "official target of 2% of hard earned money "stolen". Why is the government's basket of measurement always changed? It is actually way more than whatever the official figure is. Why do we allow such gaslighting?

TELL US: What’s the biggest personal financial mis-understanding you’ve ever had. What'd you got confused? Did it have an impact? Do tell us the story of what happened. Please reply for my podcast on Wed, and the producers will pick some to read out. And do like your faves. PS This isn't about making political points about voting etc, its about practical consumer finance issues, others can learn from.
