Interesting observation: most people talk about buying Bitcoin, but very few talk about the mining infrastructure behind it. That side of the industry is worth understanding.

Most high income earners think their income is proof they're doing It right... but the IRS sees them as the easiest target to harvest.
When you don't have structure, your lifestyle upgrades faster than your assets... and compounding works against you instead of for you.
Wealthy families don't wait until they're "rich enough" to build infrastructure.
They build it BEFORE the money scales so growth gets protected, not taxed away.

The Trump administration is pushing 50-year mortgages as the "solution" to housing affordability. On the surface, it looks brilliant.
Your monthly payment on a $400K home drops from $3,327 to $2,577 - that's $750
more in your pocket every month.
But here's the brutal reality they're not telling you:

Over 50 years, you'll pay approximately $1.28 million in total payments versus $800K on a
30-year loan.
That's an extra $480,000 going straight to the bank's shareholders - not your net worth.
