In this week’s episode of the Bonner Private Research podcast I’m joined by Bill Bonner, author and founder of the Bonner Private Research Group.

Today's conversation takes us for a journey through both time and space. We take a look at everything from the illusion of free money to the advent of free market money. From Dogecoin to Ford Motor Company, from bad ideas to real wealth and plenty more besides. Such is the breath of conversation one might reasonably expect when sitting down with no other than Bill Bonner, a man of a great many interests and insights, a few of which he was kind enough to share with us today.

I hope you enjoy my conversion with Bill, up next
