Why Does the Incoming SEC Chair Paul Atkins Have 54 Life Insurance Policies?

In this episode of the Power of Zero Show, host David McKnight addresses the claim that sees Paul Atkins owning 54 life insurance policies for an astounding 10% of his $327 million net worth. Someone may ask themselves why someone with such a massive net worth would own so many life insurance policies…and even why someone who has equity in Chinese tech giant Alibaba, holdings in cryptocurrency, and stakes in venture capital firms would also want their wealth growing in cash value life insurance policies. Looking at Atkins, who's President Trump's nominee to chair the Securities and Exchange Commission, can help understand how the ultra-wealthy view taxes and wealth accumulation. One possibility could be that Paul Atkins may have exhausted all of the usual sources of tax-deferred and tax-free growth available to him through government-sponsored retirement plans.  Something worth remembering: Cash Value Life Insurance policies don't have any income threshold, and they have no contribution limits at all. A second potential scenario that has led Atkins to have over 50 life insurance policies is that he might be looking for a way to diversify his holdings. David points out to the fact that owning shares in single stocks like Alibaba – like Atkins does – can be a fairly risky proposition. Cash value and life insurance policies like whole life or IULs, on the other hand, aren't exposed to market risk. There's yet another possibility: Atkins may not be the insured on all the policies. According to the ethics filings, the cash value of the policies in question ranges from as low as $1,000 to well over $1 million. For some experts, that may be a sign that Atkins is investing in life settlements. The final potential scenario is the one in which Atkins owns all the policies for the purpose of estate planning. David points out that there are many more efficient ways to purchase life insurance policies than buying 54 separate contracts David shares that he understands the concept of wanting to spread your risk out among multiple carriers, but feels that doing so through the purchase of 54 different policies is a bit extreme. David points out that diversifying away from the stock market with some of your portfolio is, typically, a good idea. Want safe and productive growth without the risks associated with traditional bond allocations? Look at cash value life insurance policies, says David. Remember: cash value life insurance can also be beneficial because many carriers allow you to receive your death benefit in advance of your death. While it's true that cash value life insurance isn't for everyone, Paul Atkins ethics disclosure shows that it can play a critical role in someone's long-term wealth-building strategy.     Mentioned in this episode: David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com Paul Atkins Alibaba

En el Radar Empresarial de hoy analizamos la salida a Bolsa de Coinbase: la mayor empresa de criptomonedas del mundo se estrena hoy en el S&P 500. Esto es un hito dentro del mundo cripto ya que es la primera compañía de este mundillo en entrar en el Standard and Poor's. La noticia hizo que el pasado 13 de mayo sus acciones subieran un 24%. Lejos eso sí, quedan sus máximos de 340 dólares, en plena fiebre por los cripto activos que desató la victoria de Donald Trump. De hecho, su entrada se puede entender desde los cambios desatados por la Administración Trump: con él se produjo la llegada de Paul Atkins. La Comisión de Bolsa y Valores siempre había sido muy reacia a la incorporación de empresas cripto a la Bolsa y sobre ellas siempre pendía una regulación que muchas consideraban como “hostil”. La llegada de Atkins trae un soplo de aire fresco a estas compañías. De hecho, empresas como Gemini, Bit Go o el exchange Kraken se están preparando para su salida a Bolsa este año. Las malas noticias le han llegado a Coinbase en forma de ciberseguridad. El jueves un grupo de hackers sobornaron a empleados de atención al cliente para sacar información para conseguir datos de los usuarios de la empresa. Ahora los piratas informáticos exigen 20 millones de dólares para que los datos de más de 10.000 usuarios no salgan a la luz. Tal y como le dijo la empresa a la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores el ataque le podría costar entre 150 y 400 millones de euros. Brian Armstrong. Mayo ha sido un mes muy movido para la compañía, ya que a principios de mes anunció la compra del grupo dubaití Deribit por 2.900 millones de dólares. Es la mayor operación realizada en el mercado digital. Greg Tusar, director de producto institucional de Coinbase, afirmaba entonces que “las criptomonedas están a punto de experimentar una expansión significativa”. Coinbase es una plataforma de comercio de criptomonedas con sede en San Francisco, California. Gestiona activos digitales en 190 países en todo el mundo. La compañía fue fundada en 2012 por Brian Armstrong y Fred Ehrsam y solo dos años después la plataforma creció a un millón de usuarios. Uno de sus problemas más recurrentes es también bastante irónico: los usuarios siempre se han quejado del departamento de Aten

De cryptomarkt kende deze week een opvallende opleving. De koers van Bitcoin steeg naar 94.200 dollar, zo’n veertien procent hoger dan een week eerder. Het blijft lastig te verklaren waar die stijging precies vandaan komt, maar het lijkt erop dat beleggers opnieuw het vertrouwen vinden in Bitcoin als digitaal goud. Tegelijkertijd doen ook andere risicovolle beleggingen het goed. Tweede Paasdag viel extra op: terwijl de Amerikaanse aandelenmarkten onder druk stonden, maakte Bitcoin juist een sprong van vier procent. Ook altcoins lieten zich van hun beste kant zien, met Solana en Dogecoin als belangrijkste uitschieters, wat duidt op een flinke toename van de risicobereidheid onder beleggers. De Trump Coin trok deze week ook veel aandacht. De prijs van de token steeg woensdag met bijna zeventig procent, nadat bekend werd dat de 220 grootste bezitters van de munt zijn uitgenodigd voor een diner met voormalig president Trump. Dit slimme marketingoffensief viel samen met de uitgifte van driehonderd miljoen dollar aan nieuwe munten op 18 april. De familie Trump en het team achter de token kunnen door deze strategie op termijn miljarden dollars incasseren, zij het geleidelijk. Inmiddels schommelt de prijs van de Trump Coin rond de twaalf dollar, fors lager dan het hoogtepunt van 73 dollar in januari. De markt kijkt uit naar de beelden van het exclusieve diner in Washington, waar cryptomiljonairs samenkomen met de voormalige president. Opvallend nieuws kwam er ook van vier grote financiële partijen: Tether, Softbank, Bitfinex en Cantor Fitzgerald werken samen aan een investeringsvehikel voor Bitcoin met een waarde van drie miljard dollar. Het nieuwe bedrijf, dat de naam 21 Capital moet krijgen, wordt naar verwachting beursgenoteerd en vormt daarmee een serieuze concurrent voor Microstrategy, het bedrijf van Michael Saylor. Microstrategy staat bekend om zijn strategie om via leningen en aandelenuitgiftes zoveel mogelijk bitcoin op de balans te zetten, met inmiddels meer dan vijftig miljard dollar aan bitcoin in bezit. Of 21 Capital dezelfde koers gaat varen, valt nog te bezien, maar Cantor Fitzgerald is van plan om via de markt 550 miljoen dollar op te halen voor bitcoin-aankopen, terwijl Tether, Softbank en Bitfinex gezamenlijk bijna drie miljard dollar investeren. De betrokkenheid van de zoon van minister van Economische Zaken Howard Lutnick bij Cantor Fitzgerald roept vragen op over de gunstige omstandigheden waaronder het bedrijf opereert. In het verlengde daarvan is de benoeming van Paul Atkins als nieuwe voorzitter van de Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC van groot belang. Zijn installatie markeert een breuk met het beleid van voorganger Gary Gensler, die bekendstond als streng voor de cryptosector. Atkins, door voormalig president Trump voorgedragen, benadrukte bij zijn aantreden het belang van duidelijke regelgeving voor de cryptowereld. In de aanloop naar zijn benoeming trok de SEC al diverse rechtszaken tegen cryptobedrijven in. Verwacht wordt dat het klimaat voor grote cryptobedrijven in de Verenigde Staten onder Atkins verder zal verbeteren. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Dennis Post, belasting- en blockchainexpert bij EY. We hebben het over een nieuwe Europese richtlijn, DAC8. Die verplicht crypto-dienstverleners om gegevens over al jouw transacties te delen met de belastingdienst.

It seems we have reached an inflection point in the fight to adopt what President Trump has called an “America First Investment Policy”: Last week, two influential Wall Street financiers appear to have broken with their colleagues' determination to continue investing in China first. Friday morning, Shark Tank personality Kevin O'Leary objected to the unfairness of Communist Chinese companies enjoying privileged access to U.S. capital markets. He demanded that Paul Atkins, the Securities and Exchange Commission's newly confirmed chairman, ensure that they instead comply with our laws and regulations – just as O'Leary's companies and everybody elses' must.  Later that day, BlackRock chairman Larry Fink declared that “nefarious” Chinese companies should be delisted from our capital markets. If he now walks the walk, and divests his company's vast holdings propping up Xi Jinping's regime, we may finally stop underwriting our enemy.    This is Frank Gaffney.

For a dozen years, millions of U.S. investors have unwittingly had their pensions, college savings and other funds used to underwrite companies working for the Chinese military. That means they've helped our mortal enemy buy the weapons that may be used to kill them – and countless other Americans.  President Trump has announced an America First Investment Policy to end this insane practice. But top Wall Street leaders like Jamie Dimon, Brian Moynihan, Ted Pick and David Solomon are helping to raise at least another $7 billion for one such company called CATL. Their “China First” policy subverts Mr. Trump's, and threatens our national security. Today, Paul Atkins will have his nomination to chair the Securities and Exchange Commission considered in a Senate Banking Committee hearing. We need to know: Will he help enforce America First investing – or further enable the Chinese threat?

Z As 25 major cryptocurrency figures gather at the White House tomorrow for a summit on establishing an American crypto reserve, our Narativ investigation has uncovered a deeply troubling pattern: three coordinated "pump and dump" operations that have transferred billions from ordinary Americans to a select few insiders with direct ties to Donald Trump. The December 5th Diversion The first operation occurred on December 5th while the nation was distracted by the assassination of the UnitedHealth CEO. In this carefully orchestrated sequence, Trump appointed David Sacks as "Crypto Czar" and Paul Atkins as SEC Chair – both staunch crypto advocates. Bitcoin surged from $70,000 to $108,000 before dropping to $85,000, generating an estimated $700 million windfall for Elon Musk's companies Tesla and SpaceX, which hold substantial Bitcoin on their balance sheets. As economist Peter Schiff noted in our exclusive interview, "If they were doing this with securities, they'd be in jail. But because these things are not securities, they just say they're collectibles. The pump and dump and insider trading or stock manipulation, none of that applies." The Meme Coin Massacre The second operation centered on the Trump and Melania meme coins launched just before the inauguration. Our investigation revealed that a mere 31 traders collected $675 million in profits while more than 800,000 investors lost a collective $2 billion – a staggering winner-to-loser ratio of 1:25,806. Meanwhile, the Trump family reportedly pocketed approximately $100 million in trading fees alone. The pattern is unmistakable: a 12-hour gap between the contract creation and public announcement provided insiders ample time to accumulate tokens at pennies on the dollar before the coordinated public push drove prices up nearly 40,000%. The Strategic Reserve Ruse The third operation unfolded just last Sunday when Trump announced on Truth Social that "a U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve will elevate this critical industry" and specifically mentioned three cryptocurrencies: XRP, SOL, and ADA. As Schiff observed, "Donald Trump did not write that. I would bet almost anything that he had nothing to do with writing that post. There's no way that Donald Trump knows that ADA is the symbol for Cardano." The post – suspicious in both its timing and content – triggered immediate price spikes in the mentioned cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin shot up to $95,000 before quickly falling as investors realized the announcement was merely promotion for the upcoming summit rather than concrete policy. "They timed that, they shot the price up, and then they started selling," Schiff explained. "I bet they made hundreds of millions. These three coins were up 30, 40, 50% initially. Of course, it was a rug pull." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
