An interest in investing, here's thoughts & ideas I've been into.

The 6 Stocks I've added in here to start with are:  

$AC - Air Canada $BUS - Grande West Transportation Group  $CGX - Cineplex $FLT - Drone Delivery Canada Corp $FF - first Mining Gold Corp $NOU - Nouveau Monde Graphite  

The internet empowers the average person - the little guys - to the point where they can take on the huge conglomerates - the big guys  

As much as I dislike "Us vs. Them" situations, I think that this sort of VS. battle is actually a step in the right direction as the big guys have created this separation to begin with!  

Those in power often work to keep people below them and to stay in power..  

Now, I might add, hierarchies are one thing (necessary and unavoidable) but the powerful purposely keeping others beneath them is another thing entirely..  In the game of money this seems to have gone on forever.  

So, let this revolution happen, even the playing field and from there let the natural hierarchies of competence emerge, let fairness triumph and the world just become a more efficient place where we help one another and don’t actively hold others back from success.   Everybody can Win

This is the GameStop scenario

And the narrative pf pitting the Internet (Reddit) against Wall Street - a battle of the retail traders against the hedge funds and the people who run Wall Street.  

Now that it is all said and done (seemingly) who are the real winners and who are the big time losers?

2020 was a strange year … The Pandemic Lockdown should have been an opportunity to do ample amounts of reading. In practice however, I found it hard to read with focus and clarity...

Instead, I just used the internet more… Participating in daily Zoom chats, creating YouTube VLOG’s and, of course, consuming videos and podcasts.

My time was spent almost exclusively on-line...

Not a totally bad thing though. 

I am grateful for the connections I made online, proud of the videos I’ve created, and certainly learnt a lot from all the podcasts I’ve listened to.

But I still cannot help but think of all the books I could have read…

Nonetheless, I did manage to read some powerful and immensely insightful books in 2020 despite everything else. 

So, in this podcast I review my top 5 most impactful books of 2020 (with a bonus book recap at the end).

Enjoy! 💎🧠💭

Jake Portolese on COLD EXPOSURE, the WIM HOF METHOD, Breathing, Presence & Exercise

Jake is a highly motivated individual with an aim to learn and teach a well-rounded approach to achieving optimal overall health. I first connected with Jake through YouTube, via the comment section of Gary Vee videos. Jake engaged in the 40 day Wim Hof challenge and documented each day of it on YouTube.  Doing so, he gained valuable insights into the benefits and effects of being exposed to Cold on the daily basis.

In this podcast Jake shares those insights on cold exposure, breath work, exercise and mindset.

So, why expose ourselves to the discomfort of cold water?

As human's we adapt in so many ways. We can train ourselves to be adaptable to temperatures, yet we often fear the cold and do whatever we can to avoid it and stay at a 'comfortable' temperature.  We've made it this far in human evolution by having to endure varying temperatures and climates.  

And it appears that our bodies rewards us for occasional exposure to freezing cold temperatures (as well as extreme heat) as a form of Hormesis, the good type of stress.  

It's the  “what doesn't kill you makes you stronger” in full effect.   Cold Water Exposure also seems to go hand in hand with exercise and healthy eating as well. It's a gateway into Breath Work and Mindfulness Meditation.
