What? “External Resources”? Like “public school education”? That “external resource”? The public school education disregards private wealth accumulation. We are allowing our kids to be educated by those who know LESS than us about finances. We can and do our part but it should be emphasized by those who we pay to educate our children.

@WilliamTaborDDS @miles_commodore Agreed. Mom and Dad should be doing that. To the extent parents need to use external resources they can do so.

Every public high school in America should be teaching how credit cards work, how to get a mortgage, and what mutual funds are and how they function. 16th century English literature is great, but how about equipping our children with what they need in the REAL world.

Patience, perseverance. When Laura opened her DPC practice in 2017, we had no idea. I quoted the infamous Don Imus when he got a Boston radio station onto his nation wide lineup. He said, “I don’t want to get EVERYONE to listen. I just want to get SOMEONE to listen.” He did very well. Laura is doing really well 9 years later. You will be fine. You just don’t know it yet.

Guys. This means the absolute WORLD to us!!! Despite not seeing any patients our first day (at all, blessing in disguise we still have a lot to do) we have been getting flowers from you and it means everything. ❤️🥲 @kaufcare day one ✅

@Stealthct_Storm @ElijahColeman21 Mostly company sponsored, I’d assume.

@ElijahColeman21 didn't think it was that high

Friendly reminder: Approximately 167 million American adults, or about 62% of U.S. adults, invest in the stock market as of 2025–2026. Now lets take this further: Ownership is heavily influenced by income and education, with 87% of households earning or more investing, compared to only 28% of households earning less than Do not let limitation restrict how you move through life, regardless of income or education level, find a way to better yourself!

@cathyshaslam @nickimoraa Look up dpcfrontier.com and see what you think about getting unlimited physician, not NP, NOT PA visits. Anything like that in Canada?

Serious question. Why are some Americans so against universal healthcare?

@colinabwallace @nickimoraa THERE IS ZERO DIFFERENCE IN COST TO CONSUMERS IF A US HEALTH “CARE” ENTITIY IS FOR OR NON-PROFIT! The CEO gets the same, the doctors don’t get paid, the localities don’t get their property taxes from the non’s. It’s all BULLSHIT!

@nickimoraa Because of US Insurance company's and for-profit healthcare propaganda which they reddily believe.

@cathyshaslam @nickimoraa I can get a local MRI this week for $550 advertised cash price in SC.

Because what you call universal health CARE isn’t care, it’s insurance. Obama CARE is not care, it’s over priced insurance that is not only NOT affordable but is difficult and often impossible to USE for health CARE due to extremely high deductibles. There is no CARE associated with “universal healthcare”. Follow up questions welcome.

@FluentInFinance Couldn’t agree more and I would make sure they pay all types of taxes including property taxes. So any “non-profit” using your criteria should pay all these taxes. I’m glad we were able to come to agreement across party lines.

Raise your hand if you agree that any company led by a CEO who lives in a mansion, drives a luxury car and flies in a private jet SHOULD PAY TAXES. ✋

@sciencegirl COOKING!

What’s missing

@SeloSlav I feel sorry for you that your job is so meaningless.

People are creative. Once their basic needs are covered, they’ll find new things to do with their time. There is no inherent meaning in the struggle to feed yourself or keep yourself and your family healthy. I genuinely don’t understand why so many people put slavery on a pedestal.

@HealthRanger But at least Bitcoin would be inflated to the kinds of numbers predicted by the flock.

Elon promises a "Universal High Income" for everyone. Let's suppose that means $10K per month for 100 million Americans. Here's the math: 100 million people × $10,000/month × 12 months = $12 trillion per year. To put that in context, total federal spending in fiscal year 2024 was roughly $6.75 trillion, and total federal revenue was about $4.9 trillion. So this single program would cost nearly twice the entire existing federal budget and about 2.5× all federal tax revenue. It would roughly triple total government spending overnight. U.S. GDP is roughly $29 trillion. A $12 trillion UBI program would equal about 41% of total GDP -- being directed as cash transfers to a subset of the population. For comparison, all current federal transfer payments (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, veterans' benefits, etc.) combined run around $4–5 trillion. The M2 money supply (cash, checking deposits, savings, money market funds) sits at roughly $21–22 trillion. If the program were funded by money creation rather than taxes, injecting $12 trillion per year would expand M2 by roughly 55% in the first year alone. Even if a portion were funded through taxation (which just redistributes existing money), the sheer scale makes it nearly impossible to fund without massive monetary expansion. The inflationary pressure would be enormous, for a few reinforcing reasons: First, demand-side shock -- putting $10,000/month into 100 million hands would massively increase consumer spending, but the economy's productive capacity (factories, housing, workers, supply chains) can't scale anywhere near that fast. When far more dollars chase roughly the same quantity of goods, prices spike. Second, labor supply contraction -- $120,000/year tax-free would exceed the median U.S. household income (~$80,000). Many workers would reduce hours or exit the workforce entirely, shrinking the supply side at the exact moment demand is surging. That's a double squeeze on prices. Third, velocity effects -- lower-income recipients tend to spend transfer income quickly, so the velocity of money would increase, amplifying the inflationary effect beyond what the raw money supply numbers suggest. A rough (and conservative) estimate: mainstream quantity-theory-of-money reasoning would suggest that a 55% expansion in money supply, combined with rising velocity and falling output, could produce annual inflation well into the double digits -- plausibly 30–50%+ in the first year or two, potentially accelerating into a hyperinflationary spiral if sustained. Historical parallels (Weimar Germany, Zimbabwe, Venezuela) all involved governments printing money at scales far smaller relative to GDP, and still produced catastrophic inflation. So no, Elon doesn't understand economics. And yes, a "Universal High Income" would quickly lead to hyperinflation and currency collapsing, thrusting almost everyone into extreme poverty.

@Sam_Badawi VOO

Which stock will you buy if we get a gap down on Monday?

@ProximalAI @Pro__Trading Wait what? If you’re in prison, you get full support. Zero rent, zero food bill. About the same as ubi.

@Pro__Trading Make that unconstitutional Unless you’re in and prison, you get your check, no matter what Also, UBI cannot be seized or have liens put against it It’s yours forever

Universal basic income is going to turn us all into zoo animals. Fed and housed, but lacking motivation and purpose, and subject to the whims of our zookeepers.

@ProximalAI @Pro__Trading You suck at life. Stop sucking at life.

@Pro__Trading My life is meaningless without repetitive motion injuries and stern emails from Karen in HR

@MarcosMillaYT Perfect. I laugh at the 20-something’s buying sats when btc is $74k. Their $50 when btc goes to $148k yields them $100. Are they going to sell at that doubling?

The amount of money you have invested is far more important than the size of your return. A 50% return on $1,000 is only $500. A 5% return on $100,000 is $5,000. Stop stressing the specifics of something like $VOO or $SCHG . It doesn't matter much. Instead, focus on pumping as much as possible into the stock market.

@hollywood_camm1 @MarcosMillaYT …or get a better work situation. It’s all about freedom.

@MarcosMillaYT Faster I can get money in, the faster I can stop working!

I’m teaching my daughter and son-in-law about time in the market vs. timing the market by gifting $SPY to my grandchildren. The 3 year old just passed $10k net worth yesterday with 41% gains since Sep 2022 after her birth in Aug that year. The less than 2 year old is worth $5k. They are “getting it”. And I’m going after our $20/hr young employees to simply start…just start.

@MarcosMillaYT I wish I knew this 25 years ago I tried too many different approaches But this is the way 💯 Excited to teach my children how to be financially free at a young age

@james_xond …and on 8 hour car rides…are you kidding me ?

People who grew up without internet, how did you deal with boredom at home?
