The life of my dreams began... "I would not have the career I have if I had not found a way to cut costs when I was a young single mother. Increasing income is what we always think we need to do. However, finding ways to cut costs, our big-ticket bills, is a game changer, too, and that's something we can do now." Natalie Pace Natalie Pace discusses how to dramatically reduce housing and budgeting costs, including 7 important solutions. We'll also have a special guest, Mariah, a young professional who transitioned out of van life a few years ago and is preparing to buy her first house.
Creating Billion-Dollar Projects. Are you struggling to make ends meet, or are you creating billion-dollar projects that will leave a lasting positive impact on humanity? Mark Nelson, PhD, is one of the original biospherians from Biosphere 2. If Biosphere 2 were to be created today, it would cost over $1 billion. That is not the only project that Mark and his partners brought to life at Synergia Ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Mark Nelson outlines the origins of Biosphere 2, the Puerto Rican rainforest project, Eden in Iraq, the October Gallery in London, the Heraclitus (a ship they sailed around the world more than once) and so many other projects in his new book, Irrationals in Hope of the Impossible: The Origins of Biosphere 2 at Synergia Ranch in the 70s. A link to his new book is directly below.

The FOMC cut the Fed Fund rate on Sept. 18, 2024 by half a percent, to 4.75-5.00 percent. Maximum employment and price stability are their mantras, but why did they really cut interest rates? What does it mean? Stocks dropped yesterday after the news, but are surging today. Will the rally continue? Mortgage (good) and Interest Rates (bad, if you’re a saver) Drop. Should you refinance? Buy a long-term CD or bond? Gold (+26%) and silver (+31%) have been on fire, will these assets soar to new heights? What about Bitcoin and Ethereum? We'll host a Bond & What's Safe Master Class the Saturday after the Oct. 18-20, 2024 Financial Freedom Retreat, on Oct. 26, 2024. https://www.nataliepace.com/bond2024-305174.html#/ https://www.nataliepace.com/retreat202410.html#/ Be sure to share this videoconference with your friends.

Should you go aggressive or conservative with your wealth plan? Is your conservative plan really conservative, or is it actually losing money? (An all bond portfolio isn’t as safe as you might think.) Is the right answer to do both in an age appropriate way? How do you know the difference?
Below are the points we’ll discuss in this videoconference. I'll be posting at a blog at NataliePace.com/Blog. We'll host a Bond & What's Safe Master Class the Saturday after the Oct. 18-20, 2024 Financial Freedom Retreat, on Oct. 26, 2024. https://www.nataliepace.com/bond2024-305174.html#/

Earning 5% Without Those Pesky “Paper” Losses.
Stocks have been wild. Bond yields have dropped. All on the expectation of a rate cut at the Sept. 18, 2024 FOMC meeting.

On August 1, 2024, as the news spread (during the Jerome Powell press conference) that a September interest rate cut was on the table, stocks sank, with the DJIA dropping almost 500 points. Isn’t a rate cut what everyone has been waiting for? Why the sell-off? What does this mean for investors for the rest of 2024, and what is our best move for both stocks and bonds as we enter a cycle of potential rate cuts?
Below are the points we’ll discuss in this blog.

Join us for an exclusive, 5-star, brain trust adventure (for an affordable price) A Life-Changing, Exclusive, Intimate Adventure, Hosted by Natalie Pace The manor house is owned by The Royal Family. Here, our group can jumpstart our FIRE* dream. We embrace a week of visioning, of ditching the car and gridlock traffic, of walking a lot more, of living in greater harmony with nature, of long nature walks in meadows filled with lambs, of marveling at castles that were built in the 1100s and the Eden Project biosphere that was built just 20 years ago. *Financial Independence Retire Early What kind of insights can we tap into? What kind of epiphanies and new possibilities will present themselves when we slow down and allow ourselves to dream? What partnerships might emerge? Step back into Mother Nature and harmony for a glimpse of the world we might create. Together. Learn more about our March 2025 Retreat at the flyer at NataliePace.com.

Nvidia and artificial intelligence are all the rage. Without the doubling in share prices of the Magnificent 7 (Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla) in 2023, the 26.3% total returns of the S&P500 would have been just 9.9%. Can a market that is surging on just a handful of stocks keep hitting new highs? Why are investors willing to pay such lofty prices for these mega tech companies? Will any fall the way of Tesla, which is down almost -30% in 2024? (Many were the biggest losers in 2022.) How can investors profit from the promise of AI without getting swallowed up by the volatility?
Nvidia carries a $3 trillion valuation, even though the company only earned $30 billion in 2023. Apple and Tesla were on fire last year, but are losing revenue year over year, which is why the Magnificent 7 are now the Fantastic 5. Learn how to profit, capture gains, lean into super performers and underweight laggards, and make sure that we have enough safety to smooth out the market gyrations in this invaluable session.

The last year and a half have been on fire for Wall Street. However, as I’ve mentioned a lot this year, the gains were concentrated in just a few companies, all with a strong technology presence. Stronger performers include copper, gold, silver, cryptocurrency, and this week’s new meme stock phenomenon, Sunpower Corporation. Incidentally, breakthrough technology, artificial intelligence, copper, silver, clean energy and crypto have all been identified as hot industries for years in our Financial Freedom Retreats. Hot slices add performance to our wealth plan – particularly if we are smart about proper diversification and 1-3 times a year rebalancing. Here are the industries we’ll discuss in this videoconference. Most are outstanding performers. However, I’m also going to address a few of the hots of bygone years, which have performed dismally of late (and what you might do about that). We’ll also discuss key dates for our rebalancing.
