    Kevin Kreider is a well-known personality who gained recognition for his appearance on the hit Netflix show "Bling Empire." The show "Bling Empire" is a reality series that follows the lives of wealthy Asian and Asian-American individuals in Los Angeles. It provides viewers with a glimpse into their extravagant lifestyles, including their opulent parties, glamorous fashion, and intricate interpersonal relationships.

    In addition to his television career, Kevin Kreider is also recognized for his entrepreneurial ventures. One of his notable projects is the creation of SANS, a non-alcoholic beverage. SANS is designed to cater to individuals who choose not to consume alcohol, whether for health, personal, or cultural reasons, but still want to enjoy a sophisticated and flavorful beverage during social gatherings.


    SANS addresses a growing trend where many people are opting for non-alcoholic alternatives in social settings. These alternatives offer a way for individuals to participate in events and celebrations without the effects of alcohol. What sets SANS apart is its focus on providing a "sexy" and appealing beverage that can stand out in social contexts. It likely offers a range of flavors and ingredients that mimic the complexity and taste experience of alcoholic drinks, making it a suitable choice for those who want to enjoy a beverage that complements their lifestyle choices and social activities.

    Kevin Kreider's involvement with SANS not only showcases his entrepreneurial spirit but also reflects a broader cultural shift toward more inclusive and diverse beverage options. This venture aligns with the increasing demand for innovative and sophisticated non-alcoholic beverages that cater to a wide range of tastes and preferences, helping people feel included and comfortable in various social situations.

  • Joshua Krafchick Investment Update #1- 369 Financial: A.I. Boom. Market Pullbacks. Investor for the Long-Run.

    Joshua Krafchick from 369 Financial, gives a 3rd quarter investment update.


    During this year, the markets have been dominated by technology companies that have caused the stock market to continue to rise. However, the unsustainable growth of some of these organizations could cause prices to come down when investors begin to take profits. Or when these companies' earnings aren't strong enough to keep the price moving forward like we've seen with $GOOGL & $TSLA.

    When events like this happen, it causes ETFs that follow the index to become overpriced when you look at what they are trading relative to their earnings. And that's the key item to remember.
    The market is forward-looking. Whether the outlook is positive or negative. So right now, there has been a good amount of positive news, so
    that may cause the market to become "over priced." How do we know when the market is overpriced?
    Well, that's why we consider Price to Earnings Ratios. Of course, a company can be an expensive purchase, but it still performs well, no doubt about it. However, we don't want to place ourselves in a position where we are getting greedy and not considering taking some profits to reallocate money into other opportunities that are undervalued.
    During these cases, the indexes typically do very well and that could cause well established companies to underperform the market as a whole. For example, as of July 26th, 2024, the Walt Disney Incorporation over the past 5 years has seen a negative 38% return. Really bad...
    Investing, requires us to look at the big picture. Since January 1, 1985 $DIS has seen an increase in value of over 5000% as of today. I think anyone would be happy with that return during that time.
    Unfortunately, the human mind can be our worst enemy and with the recent downturn of Disney, if you had $1 Million before they started to decrease in value, now you would have "lost" about $380,000. Scary?
    Yet, what you always have to realize and keep in mind is that you must look at how far you've come from where you started, not look at where you were at the extreme high points. This will cause any investor to lose their mind because it's a very pessimistic point of view.
    Positive in this Example: You have seen your investment return 5000%!
    Negative in this Example: "I'm down $380,000"
    Essentially, if you had invested about $20,000, you are now up to $620,000. That's a huge win and a great investment. Yet, as time goes on sometimes people's view on the world gets jaded. And that is what ends up being detrimental to the overall success of investors, especially as they get closer or enter their retirement year.

  • 2024 Investment Commentary. AI Boom. Inflation in the United States.

    2024 with inflation coming down in the United States it appears interest rates are going to remain where they are unless there is some sort of economic slowdown whereas the Federal Reserve is in a position to lower rates to help the economy in case this may occur.

    AI is increasing the productivity and profitability of companies and if this trend continues the stock market could continue on an upward run and enter into a Bull Market.

    Regardless of what happens, ensuring that you have the proper amount of cash and have a withdrawal strategy with your investment account if you're in your retirement years is going to be paramount for ensuring you remain invested for the long haul.

    It always pays to be cautiously optimistic so that way no matter what the outcome is you will be in a position to be happy with your long-term results.
