I work with some of the most successful people in America. The very best share these 5 key traits:

The average US family health insurance premium has increased from $6,000 in 2000 to over $25,000 in 2024. That’s a 297% increase, more than triple overall inflation. The biggest beneficiaries of this massive increase in costs: health insurance companies.

Quit worrying about what other people think about you. No one is thinking about you. Everyone is too wrapped up in their own world.

China’s working-age population will shrink dramatically over the coming decades, driven by the lagged effects of the one-child policy, an aging population, and a significant decline in fertility rates—which currently stand at 1.09 births per woman, far below the 2.1 needed to…

Tariffs? What tariffs? The S&P 500 hit its 9th all-time high of the year this week, brushing off the latest round of trade threats. $SPX Video: youtube.com/watch?v=lzCnAL…
The first step towards growth is getting out do your comfort zone.

Both parties have repeatedly failed the American people in managing the nation’s finances. With the passage of the "Big, Beautiful Bill," we're likely headed for $40 trillion in national debt within the next two years.

Manufacturing jobs have fallen from 43% of all private jobs in 1945 to just 9% today. But that doesn’t mean we’re making less — real manufacturing output in the US has increased 6.7x over the last 80 years thanks to automation, innovation, and productivity gains.

Everyone has a lifetime accomplishment they are after. When you get it, you’ll realize that isn’t what life is about at all. This is 5 minutes of pure gold.
Self-driving taxi company Waymo is now doing over 700,000 rides per month in California, up from fewer than 100,000 a year ago. The robotaxi future isn’t coming. It’s here.

A record 32% of household wealth is now held by Americans that are 70 years of age and older, up from 19% back in 1989. This age group makes up 11% of the US population.

American households age 65–74 have over 10x the net worth of those under 35. The 'Big, Beautiful Bill' just added a $6,000 bonus standard deduction—exclusively for taxpayers 65 and older. Is that really where the help is most needed?

When bear markets 'turn' they tend to do so quickly. If you are sitting in cash waiting for markets to stabilize, you may miss part of the downside, but you will almost certainly miss the recovery.
