Believe it or not, a bear market may be one of the best times to kickstart your dreams, tackle those bucket list items and pursue those lifelong financial goals. As legendary investors say, the best time to start is today, the worst time is tomorrow! Listen here on how generating cents when most are fearful and playing safe can help you make sense of the heightened volatility and uncertainty and generate free cash flow to weather any storm.

Luxury Investments or Trash?

Inside this episode, we break down the pros and cons of purchasing luxury goods and whether they truly retain their value long-term as invaluable investments or are just trash after all. Surprisingly during a bear market when inflation is rampant, consumers are still fierce with their buying power, especially foreigners. Listen here to find out the scoop and make sense of all these luxury cents!

The Power of Investable Gifts

The easiest excuse to make is more money = more happiness.

For the most part that is a lazy uneducated statement. There's no doubt a base level of security will keep you sane, and financially stable and allow you to live a fruitful life, yet after a set point, no amount of goods will fill any hole inside.

Through extensive research, psychology, and intricate experiments, it simply isn't true that more money = more joy, and the only people that truly understand it are those that have gone through it themselves.

The rest that wished they had more to buy junk they don't need can't believe it.

According to The Happiest People Alive, If You Are Happy, Are You Successful?

Economists propose ~$75k is the yearly max income for happiness. I would bump this up to ~$250k per year for coastal city residents to account for higher living expenses.

Since a lower to middle-class income in San Francisco is equivalent to an upper-class income in middle America or most Sun Belt states, this is a financial precaution to follow.

Whatever the golden target may be, it has to work for you and not become obsessive, but rather just a goal. After your basic needs are met and you feel secure, happy, loved, and supported, your happiness will slowly plateau after every materialistic item you buy.

What Crypto Winter Entails & How Millionaires Really Feel About the Crash

Given that crypto is a baby investment that was founded in 2008, it’s hard to tell where it is headed next given this is its first bear market like mine so I thought there would be no better way to forecast crypto and other coins’ (Ether, etc.) outcomes than asking my closest crypto fanatics about their thoughts on the wild swings of the Wild Web known as the blockchain.
