BULLET PROOFING THE FUTURE

HOW TO PLAN FOR A FANTASTIC 2021
2020 has left us all in a weird place.

Half the experts claim we're about to enter a "Roaring 20's" situation with parties and prosperity.

The other half claim we'll end up in a CCP bread line after hyperinflation and government incompetence collapse America.
Personally, I wouldn't worry about predicting the future. Black pill, self-defeating cynicism has no merit. And there's no point in being overly optimistic unless you're already seated at the winners' table.
Afterall, the original "Roaring 20's" was only enjoyed by a handful of people in a select few locations.

Because of this, you're best bet is to position yourself so that you can ALWAYS enjoy the good times while CONSISTANTLY minimizing downturns.
Sound impossible?

The richest families in Europe have done this for 700 years.

They've remained prosperous through wars, famines, etc...

To quote the Navy Seals, "It pays to be a winner."
The biggest economic threat of 2021 is inflation.

This has become a huge topic and there's a lot of worry about the dollar losing all value.

An easy solution? Make more money and buy assets

There are a lot of companies bigger than the USA (Coca-Cola for example).
There's also Bitcoin, real estate, and foreign businesses.

If you ever read one of those "Collapse of America" books, they'll always suggest buying Swiss Francs. Buying shares of Nestle would be a lot less complicated and achieve the same results.
When it comes to Crypto, I will be the first person to admit that I know nothing about evaluating alt coins or figuring out which obscure token will rise from $0.005 to $7.

I missed out on Chainlink and many of the speculative buys I did make lost value long-term.
An easier way to capitalize on Crypto is through dollar-cost averaging Bitcoin.

It's a pretty basic strategy, yet doing this still allowed investors to triple and quadruple their money this year.
Lastly, if you want passive Bitcoin income, check out BlockFi.

They're a high-yield Crypto savings account with monthly payouts.

BlockFi is running a special this week. You get $50 in Bitcoin when you open a new account.

Online business and geoarbitrage will solve most of your economic worries too.

There are nice, modern cities around the world where you can rent a centrally located apartment (with housekeeping) for under $6,000 per year.

That's a pretty low bar to clear and entirely doable.
Have written about this before, so here's a link:

In terms of money, we live in the golden age of low effort content.

One Tweet can get you more views than a 3,000 word blog post. Same goes for other platforms like Instagram. Social media provides a VERY EASY entry-point for making money online.

Ultimately, 2021 will be like most years.

For those making progress, life is good.

For those doing nothing, there will be one million new excuses.

HOW TO MAKE MONEY SELLING PUTS

The low-risk method for turning limit orders into cash.
It doesn't take a genius to know that the stock market is overvalued.

Airbnb shares hit the market today and doubled right away. This in a time when half the planet is shut down and many people are scared to travel.
Of course, that's just one example. There are plenty more companies with impaired fundamentals now trading at or near al-time highs.

It is very hard to find a bargain anywhere, similar to June / July where everything popped, only to tank in value by September.

HOW TO PICK A SECOND HOME

If you're looking to move next year - either overseas or to another part of the country - this thread will help.
1) Weather

This impacts everything: Your mood, what activities you can do, and even your level of sociability.

Put simply, there's no reason to live someplace where bad weather seals you inside your house for 3 - 6 months each year.
2) Social Scene

How fast can you make friends? And is it possible to climb the social ladder?

When it comes to social scenes, there doesn't seem to be much correlation between city size and ease of meeting new people.

If America locks down again, and there's a good chance they do, book a plane ticket and leave the country.

ASAP

Being locked inside during winter, in a negative mindset country with civil unrest is a recipe for disaster.
In Central America, you can rent a nice apartment, in a safe neighborhood, with good Internet for under $500.

And prices are way lower if you're in a smaller city.
Even if you have very little in savings, you could easily do something to pay rent (or just get a 0% interest for the first 18 months credit card) and cover the bills.

WHY YOU MUST HOLD ASSETS THREAD

Picture below shows John D. Rockefeller's empire.

Still turning profits to this day.

Still making the whole family rich.
Wealth comes from assets, not wages.

If your grandfather bought a rental property for $20,000 back in the day, your family is minting money.

If your grandfather put 10% of his paycheck into savings and nothing else, you're going to work.

Don't repeat this mistake.
Your main goal is to buy or build things that appreciate in value over time.

Otherwise you're just stuck running the hamster wheel forever. And that's true whether you're flipping burgers or earning a high income while overspending.

TWITTER THREADS VS BLOGGING MINI THREAD

(WITH SHAMELESS @hypefury AFFILIATE LINK AT THE END)
A lot of people claim that information products, goods, platforms, etc are a waste of time or poor business pursuit.

They are absolutely RIGHT.

Buying commercial real estate or leveraging money into assets is a better source of passive income.
HOWEVER, information based intellectual properties are the easiest assets to create.

You're expressing thoughts and recording them,

That's about as low a barrier of entry as it gets.

BIG GIRTHY WHITE PILL SUPPOSITORY TO FILL YOU WITH HOPE THREAD

3 PREDICTIONS THAT 2021 WILL BE GREAT, IF YOU'RE A SMART MAN Image
1. Obesity Continues Expanding.

A lot of people stopped working out in March and will never get into shape again. In the future, anyone with a moderately good physique will stand out.
2. More People Living At Home Or In Smaller Cities

Twofer here.

Rent will (hopefully) go down more in major cities, providing a great opportunity for adventurous young man.
