What happens with capitalism when AI takes over the economy? I’ve been giving this some thought, but to be honest I don’t have a conclusion yet. I cannot see an upside to this, and despite all the WOW factor that AI seems to have in the social construct, I don’t think anyone has really thought through the impact on capitalism & economics yet. Let’s give it a shot in this episode…

EP206 - AI & Capitalism

Join us on the journey towards financial independence and being unconstrained.  Your host, Myles Wakeham, explores the art of financial sustainability and individual sovereignty resulting in a debt free lifestyle.  If you want to be challenged by a contrarian, think outside the box and go against the grain, this show is for you.  Myles has spent his life doing the polar opposite of the "social mantra" in multiple countries and this has resulted in extraordinary results.  Open your mind to thinking different, and getting MUCH better results for your finance, freedom and family.

After 5 years of doing this podcast, and other podcasts for my patrons, I’ve decided to stop doing it,  and will be stopping on episode 250.  Why?  Well take a listen and I’ll explain it all.

EP240 - I'm done

This episode attempts to give a state of the union in regards to AI, where we are, where we are going and the social and freedom impacts of this massive change we are all going to be faced with in the short term.

EP239 - The current state of AI

In 2024, at the recent SXSW convention in Austin, Texas, a movie was premiered that will be airing in April, called ‘Civil War’ by Alex Garland.  There’s been a lot of post-apocalyptic movies and TV series released over the past decade, but this one seems to have touched a nerve with the American people.  I want to talk about why in this episode.

EP238 - Civil War

Over the past 10 or so years, I’ve been noticing the divide between rich & poor is changing. After the 2008 GFC, the “Occupy Wall Street” movement protested against the 1% owners of the world, at the expense of the 99%, but alas – this didn’t change a thing. In fact it seems to have emboldened the uber rich, and the mission as just accelerated to consolida3on of power & wealth with a handful of players, at the expense of the rest of the world.

EP237 - The consolidation

My wife & I were at a friend’s place in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico a few weeks back, and we were chaJng with a local Mexican lady who has built up a small fortune in real estate. When I asked her how she did it, it was a massive contrast to western methods and yet seemed enNrely logical. Growing up poor with no money, how she did it is amazing and her story brings hope for all of us.
