EVERY SPRING MY FRONT YARD BLOSSOMS
$$$$ YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT $$$$
MONEY certainly does matter!
While the covid-19 virus and various strands with lesser but still devastating oppression seem to be calming down, the world wants to return to normalcy; but, we’re not quite sure how to go about it. The new administration, faced with the largest inflation experienced over the past twenty years, seems indecisive and stubborn. They have clearly underestimated the cost of this pandemic and the essentiality of impending legislation.
The fact is, most families are either buried in credit card debt or recklessly unaware of the disruptions happening within and around them.
Can the government be foolish enough to continue to subsidize it’s people with checks that insult the working class and encourage those already collecting unemployment benefits to continue to do so! And, if so, can we the smart ones look to do something with this currency.
INVESTING, historically speaking…
As it’s been throughout the history of the stock market, the time to invest or “re-invest” is when stocks have been depressed and are approaching their all-time lows.
As it’s been throughout time people that take action, reap the results of their zealousness.
Right now, the three biggest stories running are (1) Inflation: especially the rise in food and gas prices (2) The war in Ukraine: especially concerning refugees and the Russian threat to surrounding countries (3) Abortion Rights, Mental Health, Guns, and Climate Change or the incompetence of the Supreme Court, Senate and Congress inclusively.
At least the Feds have adjusted interest rates, which by their own merit have created investment opportunities.
ANOTHER worthy T*psterism
I’ll let you in on a little secret…… The three big stories aren’t separate, and they certainly aren’t independent! In fact, they’re “ONE” story – and a big one at that. As a single identity, they represent a single narrative which consummately needs to be viewed as a single threat.
This is most certainly how mass media sees them and how Wall Street treats them.
A threat to the stability of both the U.S. and Global economies. Ultimately, a threat to the American financial market, which remains the most powerful in the world.
Furthermore, a threat to investors both individual and institutional who simply don’t get it! Unenlightened investors who just can’t seem to understand. Those who are uncertain of what’s really happening will remain crippled by their fears.
“It‘s just ONE THREAT and that’s all you need to remember when attacking it!”

The buying power of the new Global Middle Class
Even though the pandemic erased a year or more of its growth, the global middle class since 2010 has grown at a rate of nearly 50 million people per year and has reached an incredible 1.5 billion worldwide. By 2030 that number will look more like 5.5 billion: this according to the European Commission.
Consumerism:
Middle-class consumers will drive economic growth and consequently the health of their countries and financial markets.
This is truly a big deal and especially over the long term, as economics is and always will be about “Supply & Demand”.
Inflation
Inflation is the uncontrollable result of scarcity. Wars, drought and other less important elements can lead to scarcity. It’s certainly obvious that over the remainder of this decade there will be a rising global scarcity of food even as demand rises. That frightening statement can paralyze or jump start your actions.
On its face, that sounds scary. However, if you understand the consequences of the scarcity ahead of time you can act to prepare and protect yourself. Yes, and you can profit from your actions, possibly creating meaningful wealth for you and your family.
By weaving together your intelligence and desire, you can use multiple resources at hand to discover new insights and fresh perspectives to enrich your life. The incomparable value of the internet and various outstanding professionals create a welcoming atmosphere to assist you. Consequently, you can find detailed answers to demanding questions enabling you to focus on the wonder of the world before you.
I firmly recommend joining longtime established investment clubs such as the “Oxford Club”. Without question they are worth the yearly dues hands down. On the free side there are various investment firms with an abundance of information. The latter requires much more work and determination, not to mention intelligence. Just remember, passion keeps you going but it doesn’t pay the rent.
The war in Ukraine
All wars, whether foreign or domestic lead to consequential manifestations and realities. This is an absolute fact and determination of the differences can be troublesome to say the least. That being said, today, depending on what news source you are listening to the differences are incredible.
However, whether or not the war in Ukraine is responsible for inflated gas and food prices the fact remains evident that these things are happening, concurrent to the war.
The government’s response
When hate motivated attacks on undeserving individuals and communities overwhelms the news again and again in this country the actions of a few cannot eliminate the despair of many. Mental Health can’t continue to be the reason for all this hate. Weapons of mass destruction, owned by individuals, was never the aim of the second amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.
Depending on politicians to enlighten us can be risky business. To outmaneuver the government is certainly recommended.
“Actions speak louder than words” is a quote older than time. Take a real look at the procrastination of our government. The pretension of awareness from our senate and the downright partisan and contemptuousness of our supreme court justices.
The path of the righteous
Actions must be an antidote to despair and the fear of governmental inhibitors. I’ve discovered over the last decade that my own intelligence nurtured with the actions of others much more intelligent than I have given me great focus and resolve.
Maybe the biggest lesson I’ve learned is that there are no magical heroes. If we can’t or won’t help each other there will be no tomorrows worth living. But, if we all do what we can, it can make an incredible difference.
The “Promised Land”
Before Martin Luther King Jr., was taken from this earth meaninglessly in 1968, he spent his final night preaching to a packed church in Memphis. He spoke about his life like he was giving his own eulogy. He acknowledged that there had been threats on his life, but that didn’t matter. “Because I’ve been to the mountaintop,” he said, “and I’ve seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But, I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land.” The feeling in the church when he said these words had to have been indescribable.
I only wish I was there.
Every year I celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. on his birthday, because he was truly a righteous man and a gift from God. Every April 4th, I mourn, because that gift was taken away.

Safe but never Sorry
As for the T*pster, I’m waiting and watching for my next breakout opportunity. And, for those of you wondering if I would make a recommendation for an event like that, I’m not ready to risk any of your hard earned money right now.
However, to be safe and totally without worry, why not follow a well known billionaire’s approach to worldly fortune and wisdom. All Warren Buffett does all day is read, READ and R-E-A-D.
If you had invested 10K in the S&P 500 in May of 1965, when Warren Buffett took the helm of Berkshire Hathaway, and re-invested the dividends, it would be approaching $2.75 million today. Not too bad…..huh?
So, what can you buy in this market with absolute confidence that is totally safe, conservative and without worry? One answer, for certain, is Berkshire Hathaway: (NYSE = “BRK-B”).
When you own a share of Berkshire Hathaway you posses stakes in both public and private companies, including Coca-Cola, Verizon, Geico, Procter&Gamble, UPS, Duracell, Dairy Queen, and General Motors just to mention a few. The fact is, BRK-B is up over 4% in 2022 while the S&P 500 is down nearly 6%. Why people doubt Warren Buffett’s knowledge and insight totally baffles the T*pster.
In Conclusion
The media is continuing to feed you massive amounts of misinformation. Wall Street certainly doesn’t have your backs and U.S. Politicians promise exactly what you want to hear and do little to nothing to make that come to fruition.
Unfortunately, the stock market’s a mess and some stocks will drop further still. But others could be gearing up for an explosive recovery. The Oxford Club’s, Alexander Green, is searching for the next big catch on “Insider Trading”.
