Send us fan responses! Ever tried to “authenticate” your way to freedom and wondered why nothing changes? We pull back the curtain on the public vs private divide and show why certified copies, UCC-1 filings, and public records keep you in beneficiary status instead of true control. The big shift is simple but profound: you can only control what you create. If you didn't originate the trust tied to your birth certificate and Social Security number, no amount of authentication will hand you the steering wheel.We walk through the real mechanics of authentication and certification, the Cestui Que Vie framework, and how public filings expose your assets and increase liability. Then we pivot to the private playbook used by enduring communities and elite families: holding companies to own assets, operating companies to conduct business, and non-grantor, irrevocable discretionary spendthrift trusts to separate control from ownership. Private family foundations become your record book and governance hub, keeping sensitive details off the public record while preserving purpose and continuity.Along the way, we highlight the practical tools for building a life that is structured, resilient, and private: affidavits of live birth, nativity certificates, patents of nativity, tribal records, and disciplined record-keeping that assert identity without surrendering title. We also tackle tax exposure, alter ego risks, and why registration is often the moment you give up control. The outcome is a blueprint to move from public dependency to private mastery—own nothing, control everything, and let your structures, not your signature on public forms, define your power.Ready to stop chasing validation and start creating control? Follow the show, share this with a friend who needs the shift, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway so more people can find it.https://donkilam.com FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD - DON KILAMGO GET HIS BOOK ON AMAZON NOW! https://open.spotify.com/track/5QOUWyNahqcWvQ4WQAvwjj?autoplay=trueSupport the showhttps://donkilam.com

Investors and economists are warning about a piece of the financial system that could pose a risk that is potentially similar in ways to the housing crash that preceded the financial crisis in 2008. It’s part of what's been called the shadow banking system: the private credit market, an alternative type of lending to companies that doesn't involve traditional banks. Paul Solman explains.

Determining value has always been subjective, but as price discovery transitions into the digital world, society faces a future of constantly adjusting prices. The evolution of commerce from bartering to coinage to digital has pushed society further away from each other and into a reality where prices could be controlled by artificial intelligence.As talk of a new 50-year mortgage is making waves, people are being squeezed beyond their means just to attempt to catch the “American Dream” as it passes them by. Private equity groups are buying blue-collar companies that cash flow, then jacking up prices as they rent-seek in a world of diminishing returns. It won't be long until the torches & pitchforks are no longer available at a reasonable price.—Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels:Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcast—MACRO & Charlie Robinson LinksHypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.io Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast—Activist Post FamilyActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.com Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com —Support Our SponsorsC60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROChristian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471 Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO —

Greenlight - No security problems here - Seeking a compromise over controlling exports to China, the US Department of Commerce will soon allow the export of powerful Nvidia GPUs that are roughly 18 months behind its most advanced offerings, according to a person with knowledge of the plan. - The move, which would send Nvidia H200s to China, seeks to find a middle ground between those who oppose exports of any advanced AI chips and those who worry that restrictions will merely hand the market to Chinese competitors. - It also aims to satisfy the Chinese government, which has blocked imports of less powerful chips, such as Nvidia's H20. - This can be gamed ..... - OHHHH - and USA to get 25% of the sales ????

So much winning!

The letters, obtained and verified by CNBC, account for about $41 million in new losses. - They come on the heels of $89 million in marine loan wipeouts disclosed in September and $78 million in losses previously reported by CNBC. - Willow Wealth also removed a decade of historical performance data from public view in recent weeks. - Total losses? $208 million Pistachios - Dubai Craze - Milk chocolate shell filled with: - Pistachio cream (often blended with tahini for a nutty, slightly savory note) - Kadayif (shredded phyllo pastry) for crunch - Created in 2021, went viral in 2023 via the SOCH -  United States, Iran, and Turkey the biggest producers of pistachios - Argentina betting on it to continue  - adding to their farmland to cover the demand - Dubai Chocolate Bar (the viral pistachio-knafeh chocolate) generated over $50–$60 million in global sales for the year.

For the 237th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes economist, Wharton professor, and Having It All author Corinne Low. In this interview, Corinne breaks down the myth of “having it all” and opens up about her own midlife crisis, the impossible pressures on modern women, and how inequality inside heterosexual households can quietly erode intimacy, attraction, and desire. We also dig into the data behind gender roles, invisible labor, motherhood timing, and why so many women feel “the squeeze” as they try to balance career, caregiving, and partnership in 2025. Corinne also speaks candidly about becoming a mom again at 41, remarrying a woman after divorce, and why understanding the math of your relationship may be the key to having it almost.

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!! The Terri Schiavo story is one I remember from when I was a kid. Because it was everywhere for a while. But the details were blurry. So I decided to dig in. Terri was just 26 years old when she collapsed and ended up in a persistent vegetative state. And that was just the beginning of the story. Pretty much over night... her husband and parents went to war over her life support—trying to decide who had the right to decide if she stayed alive, and what Terri would have really wanted. Then the fight went global. Politicians, religious groups, and even the Pope jumped in on the conversation, turning this private tragedy into worldwide headlines. The battle raged in the papers and in courtrooms for 15 years. Until it all came to an end. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon. xo Bailey Sarian ________ FOLLOW ME AROUND Tik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v Instagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR Goodreads: https://bit.ly/44P51lp Facebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6 Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV Pinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY Youtube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og Snapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d Discord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarian RECOMMEND A STORY HERE: cases4bailey@gmail.com Business Related Emails: bailey@underscoretalent.com Business Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Dylan and Max kick off this PM edition with holiday-on-the-road war stories: Cowboys Thanksgiving trips, O'Hare blizzards, Vegas taxi laps, and that deranged border tether balloon that literally broke loose over Sierra Vista. The mailbag hits everything from FlightSafety's Master Aviator modules and Shorts 360 island hopping, to 50-something career-changers, disc golf and pickleball layover hacks, and using tools like Notebook LM without getting your manuals on the evening news. In Flight Advice, a 19-year-old CFII in Auburn asks whether to bail on instructing for a full-time A36 Bonanza gig in Destin, and the guys break down real-world 91 experience vs. multi-time and keeping your long-term 135/121 options open. If you're grinding through holidays, fatigue, politics, and career FOMO, this one will feel uncomfortably familiar.

This week on The Nourished CEO, I'm breaking down the 10 major trends that will define the online health and wellness industry in 2026. You've probably heard people say the industry is shifting, but almost no one is explaining what that actually means for you as a practitioner, coach, or expert. Today, I'm unpacking exactly what's changing, why it matters, and how to adapt in a way that makes your business feel clearer, simpler, and more profitable. If you've been feeling like old strategies aren't working anymore, or you're noticing that clients are becoming more overwhelmed and more selective, you're not imagining it. These trends are already unfolding, and the entrepreneurs who learn to simplify, personalize, and focus on real transformation are the ones who will thrive in 2026. Timeline Summary [00:00] – Why 2026 will look different for online wellness entrepreneurs and why old strategies are losing effectiveness. [03:18] – Trend #1: The Great Opt Out of traditional health insurance and what the shift to cash pay and concierge models means for your business. [10:56] – Trend #2: Why session-by-session healthcare is fading and transformation-based programs are gaining momentum. [15:49] – Trend #3: Clients want less information and more implementation. How to create a minimum viable offer that gets results without overloading people. [20:15] – Trend #4: The breakdown of trust in healthcare and how listening and personalization set you apart. [25:45] – Trend #5: On-demand expert access. Why asynchronous support is becoming more valuable than more calls. [29:52] – Trend #6: Long-form content is making a comeback and why serious buyers are moving away from short-form social media. [35:36] – Trend #7: The "trust recession." Why buyers are more discerning and how to communicate what truly makes your approach different. [39:52] – Trend #8: How I use AI ethically to organize my thoughts and streamline communication without outsourcing my voice. [45:08] – Trend #9: Hyper specificity and why niching is essential for marketing, messaging, and paid ads in 2026. [48:35] – Trend #10: Simplicity and elegant systems. Why reducing complexity is the only way to stay profitable without burning out. Top 5 Quotes From This Episode "People are exhausted by the noise. They're done with cookie-cutter protocols and they're not paying premium prices for information they could have just Googled." "If you're still using the same strategies that worked even two or three years ago, you're going to feel like you're running uphill in the wrong direction." "Your clients want the best possible results with the least amount of extra work, and if your offer feels like a second full-time job, they're out." "With AI everywhere, anyone can look like an expert. Buyers want to know why they should trust you and what makes your approach different." "Simplicity isn't optional anymore. It is the only way your business will stay profitable without draining your life."

In this episode, I share why your intuition—not another framework—is the method you've been looking for. I talk about how A Discovery of Witches helped me see my own magic more clearly, why 2025 has been a year of intense shedding, and how ignoring your body's wisdom buries your intuition. We'll explore: Why templates and scripts eventually become cages The difference between intuition, anxiety, and projection How to read the body and field without overstepping What justice-aligned, sovereignty-first intuitive language sounds like Why so many intuitive practitioners feel “over-trained and under-trusting” If you've ever sensed more in session than your modality accounts for—and felt unsure how to use it ethically—this conversation is for you.

Prayer is the currency of the Kingdom of God. It is the birth canal for the supernatural. Prayer is the nexus between what is and what should be. Prayer is rebellion against the status quo. It is the miraculous moment when human impotence and divine omnipotence intersect. Prayer is not a monologue, it is a dialogue. Prayer is when the believer gives God earthly license to have heavenly interference!

Chris Whalen, chairman of Whalen Global Advisors and author of The Institutional Risk Analyst blog, joins The Julia La Roche Show for "The Wrap with Chris Whalen." Whalen breaks down what's ahead for the Federal Reserve and financial markets as we head into 2026. He discusses Kevin Hassett as the likely next Fed Chair, explaining why Fed independence is more myth than reality and how political pressures will influence rate decisions ahead of the midterm elections. Whalen analyzes the upcoming FOMC meeting, commercial real estate risks, and why he's not concerned about an imminent market crisis despite ongoing concerns about the Treasury market and credit conditions. He also tackles why the Fed's 2% inflation target may be outdated and explains the K-shaped economy that has consumers and investors feeling divided about the recovery.

Paul shares his journey from Dogecoin to Bitcoin, recognizing Bitcoin's privacy issues early on, which led to his support for Monero. He discusses the rise of "privacy season," attributing increased interest in privacy coins to dissatisfaction with Bitcoin's lack of privacy. Paul also explains Edge Wallet's integration of Monero in 2018 and contrasts Monero's mandatory privacy with Zcash's optional model. The conversation covers usability challenges with Monero, such as transaction finality, and touches on the need for better point-of-sale solutions to drive crypto adoption. Paul also highlights Edge Wallet's new integration of XANO for private Bitcoin transactions and discusses the potential impact of macroeconomic trends on the crypto market, especially privacy coins.

AI-driven investment, rising leverage and shifting market dynamics are reshaping the 2026 stock market outlook. As companies accelerate spending on data centers, chips and digital infrastructure, micro-level decisions are increasingly influencing the capital markets and broader economy.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido speaks with Jean Boivin, Head of the BlackRock Investment Institute, about the major forces shaping the 2026 markets and investing landscape. Jean breaks down how AI-related capital expenditure is transforming growth patterns, why governments and companies may need to leverage up to finance large-scale projects, and how these trends interact with today's policy and market environment.They also explore the diversification mirage — the idea that in an economy driven by a few powerful megaforces, some strategies that appear diversified may actually be concentrated calls. Jean shares how this affects views on regional equity markets, fixed income trends and the evolving structure of global investing.

My guest on the show today is Jason Kirsch, Portfolio Manager at Rosen Partnership and co-architect of the firm's Active Value Strategy — a concentrated, long-only, private-owner-style approach to investing in micro-cap companies across Canada, the U.S., and Europe. In this episode, Jason walks us through Rosen Partnership's philosophy of thinking like private owners in the public markets: buying capital-light, high-ROIC compounders at meaningful discounts to intrinsic value; partnering with aligned management teams; and using “constructivism” — a collaborative, non-activist engagement style — to help unlock long-term value. We dig deep into how Jason builds a true knowledge edge: talking not just to management, but to former executives, board members, competitors, suppliers — anyone who can broaden the mosaic and create an informational gap most investors simply aren't willing to develop. Jason also shares lessons learned from catalysts that didn't play out, how misaligned incentives can turn a bargain into a value trap, and why understanding your own psychology is just as important as understanding any business. For more information about Rosen Partnership, please visit: https://www.rosenpartnership.com/ We just announced our full slate of investor conferences for 2026, all in partnership with MicroCapClub. Our next major event is Planet MicroCap: LAS VEGAS, happening June 16–18, 2026, at the Bellagio. Registration is now open for that.

What happens when alternative investments shift from niche products to the industry's go-to value proposition? In this episode, we're joined by financial planner and self-described "pathological nerd" Aravind Sithamparapillai for a rigorous exploration of private markets, product due diligence, advisor incentives, and the narratives driving the surging popularity of alts. Aravind has become known in advisor circles for asking the uncomfortable questions at conferences—the ones that expose gaps in explanations, shaky assumptions, and in some cases, outright contradictions. In this conversation, he shares the stories and analytical frameworks behind his deep dives into mortgage funds, private credit, private real estate, IRR-based marketing, vintage stacking, stale pricing, operational risk, and why even large professional allocators get burned. We explore how advisors are selling alts, how funds are pitching them, what due diligence actually requires, how expected returns can be decomposed, and why illiquidity and "low correlation" benefits rarely play out in practice. Aravind also explains how some funds maintain stable NAVs through "extend and pretend," how gating works, why audited financials aren't a safety blanket, and why even top-tier firms miss red flags. Key Points From This Episode: (0:00:38) Aravind's introduction and reputation for deep, "pathological" research (0:02:23) Why alts have become embedded in Toronto's planning culture (0:03:38) Client pressure, advisor FOMO, and the belief that 60/40 is "broken" (0:05:31) Aravind's personal path into indexing, factors, and Dimensional (0:10:46) Why he started digging into alts: curiosity, client conversations, and advisor narratives (0:13:47) The "conference meme": why he asks questions others avoid (16:58) The role of intellectual honesty vs. industry narratives (20:19) The pivotal 2023 mortgage fund story: duration, turnover, and a major contradiction (22:51) "Extend and pretend": how stable NAVs can be manufactured (28:59) What "gating" actually means and why it matters (31:48) Marketing tactics: cherry-picked start dates and chart crimes (32:47) IRR manipulation, vintage stacking, and anchoring bias (36:35) Why comparing gross private credit returns to net equity returns is misleading (39:18) The problem with "low correlation" as a selling point (41:00) Why rebalancing with illiquid assets often fails in practice (44:58) How Aravind builds expected return estimates for alts (47:07) Private real estate: why expected returns often land near public market levels (48:48) A case study: apparent outperformance disappears once you match the right benchmark (51:43) The idiosyncratic risk of overweighting single-sector, single-region REITs (55:12) Why most advisors don't truly understand the all-in fees (58:00) What real due diligence should include (and why it's so hard) (1:00:35) Should advisors trust third-party due diligence providers? (1:02:58) How much comfort should investors take from audited financials? (1:05:02) Why valuation levels (1–3) matter and why most private funds use Level 3 inputs (1:06:00) The overall conclusion: markets work, but alts require extraordinary scrutiny Links From Today's Episode: Meet with PWL Capital: https://calendly.com/d/3vm-t2j-h3p Rational Reminder on iTunes — https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582.
