10 to 20 million is not enough? Holleee sheet this guy is in a different world.

Why even have rating companies if they're just fraud artists that exist to protect the rich and their assets ? Asking for a friend .......

Even gold could be dump by central banks in a near future (so prices could drop) and bitcoin is not a alternative to the us dollar so it is useless and could also be me massively dump. Confronted with massive fiscal déficits ( not only in the US…)Now the name of the game is creating real productive value storing it is secondary because, for individuals and countries, they is no way out from economic decline. and war should not an option…

Create resilient children that have life experiences tempering their character. Giving children money freely is careless.

So many wealthy families in my past have lost it all because of their children and grandchildren failure to manage the businesses and monies inherited

Love me some Ted Oakley💯

reduce debt with spending cuts, revenues from tariffs income tax property tax and higher interest rates for stronger U.S. dollar around world provide liquidity to overcome dollar short(ages) for international trade and exports, lower inflation to grow domestic economy

Measuring the stock market in multiples really doesn’t make any sense anymore because the money supply has expanded so dramatically. Unless your equation is taking this into account, such statistics have a little meaning when it comes to either making predictions or deciding what stocks are actually costing people to purchase

Context matters…… average homes are 10X average income……

This is not sustainable for any body.

The boomers ….. “pull yourself up by your bootstraps Sonny” only works in an honest monetary system.

The boomers corrupted the system beyond this advice for the majority of families.

Bad advice…..

Millenials live in the worst timeline. Everything is expensive and doesnt make sense to buy, and the reason for buying is "well AI will increase earnings" through job loss. The lets eat our own face generation.

Bro, thanks for the video! Because of you, I’m only going up! Putting my profits into Moonacy Protocol, altcoins, and Bitcoin—see you at the top!

B cool

I Hit $32,590 today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last week. i started with 5k in last week 2025... now i just hit $32,590

The truly wealthy don’t pass down money too early – they pass down lessons first, and wealth later.

When you print and export money outside US then how can you expect to increase GDP? Similarly, welfare state funding and incentivizing mass immigration. In many instances this is low cost labor susbidy that benefits businesses but creates greater negative economic effects of depressed wages, criminality, and drug addiction. Immigrants are simply spending money from subsidies and likely sending a portion back home. How does that benefit U.S? Same with various humanitarian aid and defense payments to Ukraine, NATO, etc.

Amidst shifting economic tides, the Fed's early move on interest rates before hitting the 2% inflation mark signals a crucial turn for investors. This isn't just about stocks and bonds reacting; it's a ripe moment for crypto enthusiasts. As traditional markets recalibrate, the crypto world beckons with its promise of growth and diversification. It's a call to action for investors to rethink strategies and possibly ride the wave of change that's sweeping through the financial landscape.....managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 532k in the space of a five weeks... I'm especially grateful to Ken Halper whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

I paid up all my mortgages in 2yrs while working with a Financial Adviser. I’m 54 and my husband 57 we are both retired with over $3 million in net worth and no debts. We got to realize that the secret to financial freedom is making better investments.

"When you're buying a 20 or 30 year bond, you're saying I believe that's the best interest rate I can get for the next 10 to 15 years". This statement does not consider bond price moves in the short term.

Ted is a class act.

It doesn't take long for the market trend to reverse. In fact, when the news is at its worst and investor sentiment is at its lowest, the indices frequently move from a bear market to a bull market. Which stocks are the best to buy now or put on a watchlist after reading an article about people who made up to $150,000 during this crash?

Yields fall when demand for bonds rise and vice versa. Weird thing is, market media acts like bonds are being sold off when yields are falling.

Ted is the GOAT . The real deal

A car that’s 7 years old means struggling 😂 my first car was 16 years old and 3 different shades of red with rust. I was SO excited to have a car at all.

He is so correct about having kids work in high school/college!

The US economy relies heavily on continuous credit and debt creation to function. As a result, the Federal Reserve will likely continue to print more money, increasing the average American's debt burden. Meanwhile, foreign economies, which are struggling even more than the US, remain eager to hold US dollars. Ultimately, someone will be left to bear the consequences of this unsustainable economic cycle.

We're buying our own debt. September will be wild

David shaved his face..everything must be fine 😂

In Gold we Trust! 🎉

good guest , nice video, sensible guy

It's amazing to see the resilience of Bitcoin, even amidst the U.S. regulatory standards. Trump victory created a major roles including a substantial fine and leadership changes, signal a significant shift in the cryptocurrency market. Despite the impact on the financial sector and the crypto market, BTC seems to have emerged unscathed and is once again being hailed as a safe haven asset. This is a testament to the value and potential of this relatively new asset class. There hasn’t been a more better time to start trading, thanks to Laura Brockman strategy I have been able amass 29 BTC in three weeks of trading. Her expertise and knowledge of the crypto market are unparalleled and I feel incredibly lucky to have found her.,

Interest rates in the 1980s hit 17%. The changes in rates currently are little more than rounding errors in the scheme of things. Stop trying to paint a disaster picture where there is not one. The NORMAL rate over the long term is between 5-7%.

With the rising political tensions and looming tariffs under Donald Trump… the economy is on shaky ground, and the best way to turn to is the right guidance on how to invest.. I learned how to invest wisely and adapt to market changes with the help of coachMatthew. Today, I earn over $220,000 monthly with copy trading….a transformation that has changed my life and allowed me to payoff my mortgage, In this uncertain environment, investing has become more important than ever. By staying informed and flexible 🇺🇸

Wow...hucking an OTC miner...like you are doing if because you think that is a good investment....big blow to your credibility David.....call it like you see it...not just because someone gives you a script to huck an OTC miner

Great talk

Thanks for continuing updates and for keeping us financially Educated! Regardless of how bad it gets on the economy, I'd rather trade the crypto market as it's more profitable than holding. I made a Hundred thousand dollars from trading last year even though I barely trade myself.

When Ted talks….I listen!! 👍🏼

Please have Bonnie back. ❤

I like Ted’s outlook and generational wealth suggestions - thanks David for this interview

If the US bankrupts itself, then bonds will be worthless. Cash in the bank with be worthless, if you can even get it. Naturally this will create a worldwide depression. Gold is over priced now.

Working with that fact pattern, which investments are recommended in advance of that happening?

Always one of your best guests

It’s crazy to even think about the dollar collapsing, but honestly, with everything going on debt levels, inflation, international tensions, it doesn’t seem that far-fetched anymore. If it did collapse though, it’d change everything, global trade, savings, investments, all of it

Great advice on raising children with wealth

The U.S. economy relies on ongoing credit and debt generation for sustenance. The Federal Reserve is expected to increase the money supply, leading to further debt accumulation for the average American. Meanwhile, foreign nations continue to desire the U.S. dollar, despite their own economies facing significant challenges, some even worse than that of the U.S. This situation raises concerns about who will ultimately bear the consequences of these economic dynamics.

buy bitcoin. if you need an equity buy mstr. if you need optionality buy strk. if you need safety buy strf. it's time

So glad I don't need to worry about a trust with my paltry peasant-style $10-40 million dollars. Can barely afford breadcrumbs in such poverty.

This should show the rest of us just how completely out of touch the DC/NY/LA types are from their paper wealth off the backs of both usury and taxation theft.

Long past time we working class stopped sending food, fuel, ore and real goods to these urban parasites who hate us... at least until they start paying us fair prices. 🙄
