Wait what? Wasn’t this something Ocekay already sent tens of thousands of pages of documents to _____ Times, _____ Journal, _____ Post, _____ Press, *****ters, governmental agencies, senators, congressman, world governments, the UN agencies and their mamas like three years ago and now you are making a fuss about this? Why do these entities and people call themselves news breakers and public servants anyway. They are the embodiment of late slackers, unpatriotic greedy bast**ds and everything else in between. Most of these are donkey party a-holes. Ocekay said the only ones responded back were Republicans. It was the Republicans who saved Ocekay from being locked up in a mental institution forever. Ocekay also sent tens of thousands of curated evidence of genocidal and sanction busting acts against the United States and the West, all of which were ignored by the Democrats in power. Dude literally have pictures drinking champagnes on a golf course accompanied a mystery person with the same namesake while presenting her with a personalized birthday gift with an employee book signing while her supposed husband watches on like in a NTR movie. The same woman was literally following him conference after conference while the Tropical Fungus Feet sovereign wealth fund relatively fronted for them now hiding in an American hotel near certain theme park in an Alpha + Giant Lizard style. You can’t even make this ****. The worst of them all, the Giant Lizard literally could only find amateur spies because they are basically peasant guerrillas with a provincial mentality. No matter the luxurious nature of the mansion they live in, they will always be the bumpkins from the countryside acting as the white glove of the equally uneducated claiming to be Ivy equivalents. 

That front also shares inspirational tales about his Giant Lizard journey online right under the noises of the so-called authorities. KYC is literally useless and the loophole for leasing in other territories defeat the purpose. The web of lies is so thick, anyone who he knew was introduced to her and for her to take photo with them including those who would cry in the restroom for selling their shares too early. I would trust the pure Sun people more than I trust the halfie rooftop Kimchi Bay organisms. Republican led Homeland Security via the Border Patrol, Justice Department and the State Department were the only ones responding to Ocekay when all donkey democrats ignored Ocekay. There are so many business people and government officials bending backwards to appease the Giant Lizard while their Lizards are abused, enslaved and sold for body parts while the world watches with the kind of indifference that makes you question humanity. Yet the donkey KKK Democrats are busy distributing other people’s wealth to Giant Lizard agents and cultivating their spies in research labs, corporations and in government offices. Not only do sensitive technology get transferred by California to the Giant Lizard via “partnerships,” secret police stations set up by the Giant Lizard in the United States are rampant where people are intimidated to speak out in their own country.

Just in, the US is “concerned about ties between XXXXX semiconductor chip company boss and the same namesake XXXXX. 

The Giant Lizard is getting aggressive by the day even employing private army of armed guards pepper spraying protesters in the open public in the freest country in the World with impunity. This is why I support the Republican parties and I’m sure Ocekay may as well. It makes me sick in my stomach to watch these treasonous gaslighting weasels attempt to destroy America with Manchurian candidates. Whatever you think of Ken Paxton, you as a Texan do not want to live in a state controlled by the Democrats who will turn it into California. Many of the Texas border region people may not even see themselves rooting for America, why should you be influenced by them? After years of capitulating to the Giant Lizard and likeminded authoritarians and French like worthless stagnant MENA run-down leaches, a true patriot MAGA stood up and said enough is enough. Unlike the treasonous people who named East Turkistan freedom fighters as a terrorist group, MAGA actually get things done and in a fashion unlike the family of former ambassador to the Giant Lizard and the neocons. 

These same neocons are trying to destroy Texas by supporting the democrats while being mainly responsible for the Giant Lizard being taken into the WTO. Aren’t the donkeys and the neo conman basically the same? The Giant Lizard think it will be easier to deal with the donkey democrats than the Elephant in the room Republicans. They are absolutely right and also absolutely wrong at the same exact time. The Republicans won’t deal with them as in selling out America unlike what the Pizza Door people did for years. If the island wasn’t enough, they probably also want to live to 150 years old too. If it wasn’t for President Trump, America would still be appeasing the Giant Lizard while they release one virus after another to kill tens of millions of Americans and Western people. The President also made sure the lying two-faced, so-called allies paid after themselves and didn’t take America for granted. The greatest president in the history of our world who is realistically bringing manufacturing especially high-tech ones like semiconductor chips, AI data centers, space age technology, ship building, robotics and sustainable energy back to America. Why would I not be grateful for having the privilege to live under the greatest administration ever? Ken Paxton and the Republicans for the win in Congress! 

Cards Buy List 

Scottie Barnes – Under the radar future 100 anniversary team member with likely a championship future. 

Daylen Lile – Very underrated. Literally I got a big box of his rookie cards nearly free. 

Tai Peete – Was basically used as a shipping box in that deal now they are finding out the box is worth more than the entire package not before I helped myself with all these $10 1/1 RPA unlicensed cards not in Pro uniforms. Actually, now that he changed teams before making it to the Pros, that pro uniform thing for this period is probably not worth much in premium. 

Tyrese Maxey – Self-explanatory at these card prices. 

James Cook – Better than Diggs and in Allen’s prime. The two will probably get a Super Bowl or two together. 

Meowth – One of the most popular types of animal in the world. Meowth is all over the first season yet gets little love. This is going to change as Meowth increasingly becomes a philosopher to grown ups who now fully understand what Meowth was actually saying in human. 

Machamp – The least popular of all 1st edition cards. A stamp says a thousand base cards couldn’t say regardless when it actually said it. 

Brandon Miller – Getting bucks on a semi-competent team at 23 means potential. 

Eevee – The cutie yet not Jiggypuff annoying anchor baby mama literally spunned out a litter of different types of Pokemon. 

Cade Cunningham – Championship potentials for a high-caliber player is likely 100th anniversary team stud. His rookie cards are egregiously undervalued. 

Ty Gibbs – Young, storied, strong personality and is good at driving. He benefits the most from Jordan’s NASCAR adventurous saga. 

Austin Reeves – Likely an all-star this year. He is a pivotal piece to the whitenization of the NBA.

Cal Raleigh – Yes, framing percentages sounds like a scam but the dumper won’t be dumped. He is a premium catcher playing a premium position with batting his position will likely not see for decades. His short peak is HOF historical level much more significant than the record Judge achieved. 

Kobe Sanders – In-state product, young enough, tall guard, good attitude and excellent three point shooter with volume. His base rookie cards are probably super cheap to buy.

Cards Sell List

Victor Wembanyama – David Robinson 2.0. Big up to the admiral. It sounds like an insult because Wemby was hyped to be the next HIM. Unfortunately he won’t be. He won’t even be 50% of a Kareem. No GOAT level skills plus the French n’ tall dude attributes just don’t market well in America for important people to go on in on him to get him the championship pieces. 

Steph Curry – Legendary and everything. In a few years, people will begin to realize revolutionizing the three-pointer is like a lesser version of the godfather of the four-pointer. Cynicalness aside, he will be remembered 20 years after he retires as a better version of Ray Allen but not as drama filled as Reggie Miller.  

Aaron Judge – His main record achievement is one of those forced records like the 50-50 club. No one remembers that except when the 60-60 dude comes along showing them shattering his record. At 35 plus the injuries, late bloomer, poor fielding and lack of championship clutch pressure-handling genes, he won’t be remembered for long. 

Shohei Ohtani – Before people view him differently if they will view him differently, think about exiting away from his cards on top. His situation might be better than Judge’s but he definitely won’t be the GOAT even with all the glazing. Babe Ruth might even be the better pitcher. 

Pete Crow-Armstrong – Excellent year but likely will be another run of the mill HOF.

Bryce Harper – Looking like just another great HOF.

Patrick Mahomes – If he beat Brady’s record, he won’t likely do it resoundingly likely barely scrape by which make his GOAT status shaking even if he achieves it. His cards are too hyped now. 

Josh Allen – Too much white premium on his cards now. He does have potential though. 

Lionel Messi – One World Cup win in the twilight of his playing years and a bunch of questionable wins and why he chose a certain league and a certain city to play. Without saying more, I will just say less. 

Gengar – Hehe. See what I mean? Why do I want something so creepy in my collection. 

Pikachu – Profit taking. It may still be there when it’s cheaper.

Charizard – More profit taking. It may still be there when it’s cheaper.

Sell all GOAT and retired legends card because the market is over hyped. Many GOAT and legends want have their legacies downgrades due to the new GOAT and legends entering the market.

Basically every single betting house and prediction market has the Republicans losing big and giving up the control of the House and Senate. They all believe a Democrat will win the Texas Senate seat. The payout odds are more political and sentimental than what the probability actually suggests. Too many people forget what gerrymandering means. Think of it as the foundation or marination that occurs before the finished products are presented. There are way more poor people than the rich and middle class, why you think Republicans still win elections while almost never getting most of the votes? There are still a few more rides on the votes of baby boomer Caucasians even if they are sitting in a senior center somewhere. Don’t worry, if FDR can spin the KKK Democrats into the protector of civil liberties, Republicans can re-image themselves too just not now. The Boomers still have a few more election cycles left in them to vote Republican. I feel sorry for the delusional. When Obama started appearing in Texas politics, the white wave was activated. 

I see a very close race. Unfortunately the Democrats will be highly disappointed. The Baby Boomers have little to say because let’s be honest many of them are senior citizens and perhaps not as energized as they use to be physically. Don’t mistaken that for political zealousness though. They may say little, but they are angrier than ever due to internal and external immigrations destroying their Red states from Donkey states like California and New York and the illegal/undocumented/anchor babies birthers. They are angry because their adult children are jobless or underemployed and living with them. They are irate because all the good jobs are going to people whose ancestors did very little GDP and contribution wise to help the country grow yet are reaping all the benefits from social welfare from their tax dollars. They are biserk because they spend all their saving sending their children to private school only to be indoctrinated with hesheiths, liberalism that harms America First and yielding to those who should be nuked or submissive to the great “American cause.”

Biggest betting arbitrage opportunity this century: 2026 Midterms election.

You see them smile like everything is fine. You blindly see a sweet old lady or a gentile old man waving at you, they will then drive down to the polling stations to assert their rights. They don’t choose confrontation nor agitation because they are vulnerable to all kinds of attacks. They are not invisible nor are they hidden. Their votes are just casted in a way your delusions disallow you to believe it’s real. Then there are the Hispanics who you believe will go all blue right? You are probably wrong there too. Texas use to be part of Mexico with many famous who been Texans for 200 plus years. Many of these folks have land and are well to do, they probably don’t want to give free stuff away. Then there are the African Americans. Many of them are middle class, they still need to go to the barber shops and barbecues, but many will secretly vote Republican because the ones who makes it from the project aren’t stupid enough to believe affirmative action crutch is actually good for them in the long-run once it outlived beyond its usefulness. 

Then there are the East Asians and Indians. The ones who can vote are citizens. Many of these people been living in the US for years and many of them vote for Republican due to a variety of reasons. They make a lot of money, hate crime when committed against them and probably don’t like poor people in the same vein some of them don’t like dark colorism and Mexican sounding names. I think Texans love the economic side of their state a lot more than most can imagine. The Republican deal is, vote  for us and we will make you rich. That formula is still working hence there are little incentives who those who actually are the kingmaker demographics to change all of that. The foreign name, the 100 different genders and co-ed sports leagues and a Donkey economy are probably just too radical for a lot of Texans. If I was betting, I would come away with the conclusion that the odds are too irrational to not take a gander at. 

Here are the legally compliant actionables everyone can take against the Giant Lizard that will yield wonders for America and the Western aligned worlds.

1. Email/post to the social media pages of every single American and Western aligned companies that get their products/services from the Giant Lizard and Co and you are a consumer of their products and services. Show them photos to prove you are a consumer of their products and services and request for photos and sourcing origins/addresses to detail the conditions of their Giant Lizard factories in comparison to American standards, many of which are subcontracted or managed by a Giant Lizard. You have every right to do so, see what actions those companies take an act accordingly in a legally compliant manner.
2. Every single Giant Lizard probable social media ads or other ads you see online that markets something, research then report them to the said Western online platforms where you originally saw their ads. Many of these smaller outfits are highly probable dropship scams that even the larger social networks have trouble keeping up with even with automated tools. Reporting them may help these platforms to refine their algorithm to catch these Giant Lizard potential scams that harm millions of Americans many of these victims are society’s most vulnerable such as the donkey Democrats, the sucker born every second hippies and the elderly. Ask these companies why they are selling Giant Lizard sourced products/services to Americans and Western aligned people when there are many domestic, near-shore and non-Giant Lizard and co alternatives and a time table on when they will transition from the Giant Lizard as a supplier?
3. Flag every single Giant Lizard domestic influencer channels on Western social media platforms are visiting these platforms by these Lizards are illegal and unethical by Giant Lizard VPN laws and moral standards. Many of these channels are there to steal Western jobs, money and used as propaganda and intelligence gathering operations. Many of these channels may literally target any Western aligned person that left a real comment unlike the 99.99% fake comments they bought on UMET. These commenters will likely be targets for social media and phone scams, hacking of the commenter’s employers to extract sensitive national security/IP related information, romance scams, organ harvesting scams and banking scams where they may lose their money and bodily parts. These are likely state-sponsored APT operations that are used to cultivate and acquire human intelligence assets in the country. Report these channels for promoting the Giant Lizard in a propagandistic positive light without the balance of reporting its slave labor practice, disappearances and organ harvesting operations, future Covid and human biological development and releases to kill of foreigners etc. The monetary assets generated by these influencers will be used by the Giant Lizard to develop economic and military weapons that will harm the Western world. Let the platforms, Western government and the Giant Lizard government know this is happening at the same time so they all know who is on the “To” and “CC” list. 
4. Send them to re-education concentration camps. The Sun organisms use to act the exact same way pre their WWII internment stays. The Giant Lizards are too free in America and the West. Many of them are opening my pro-authoritarian regime and help such regimes through technology transfer when they go back to the Giant Lizard. Many of these so-called US citizens continue to keep the perpetual foreigner vibe of speaking Giant Lizardry even after they left their old country. What percentage of Americans of Dutch, Belgian and German still speak that language when if they could barely speak English properly? Time to close the door either send them to Mexico or Canada to lay out the landmines at the borders to prevent potential illegals looking to harm American way of supremacy life like themselves or they can be deported to Taiwan as Lizards with strapped something on their bodies as vanguards for explodingly defending Taiwan on frog-fast boats that approaches Giant Lizard navy. They will be posthumously named heroic remote controlled service lizards blowing up enemies. Support politicians and let politicians know that’s how you feel about them and let the K-Street lobbyists and the politicians figure out what they need to do to get your votes.
5. Anchor baby birth tourism nursing homes. If you look like a Lizard, talk like a Lizard, think like a Lizard and your parents behave like a Lizard, you are a Lizard 18 make your choice and get your parents to America or not. We gonna use Lizards against Lizards exempli gratia bot vs bot automated communications.
6. Tertiary plus sanctions. Any country that act in a way contrary to American and Western interests does not deserve the Western markets and American and Western protection. Quotas are given and BSC KPIs are given to these countries as part of their ESG to show Americans and the Western Collectives they are aligned with them. 
7. Restrict old, undeserving and unproductive Giant Lizards from enjoying American and Western social welfare. They gave all their productive when they were younger to the Giant Lizard to destroy America, now America and the Western world are taking care of these red guards? Oh hell no. Time to do something about this by writing to the governments and politicians that want your vote and be sure to CC the Giant Lizard. 
8. Transshipments regulations based on ownership’s descendant DNA and ideology not just passport. You ain’t sleek, we gonna 46 and Lizard your blood type my cripple. Passport doesn’t mean jack. It’s all about where your productivity go. Transactional and long-term asset/income/cash flow checks to ensure you are generationally and eternally aligned to the American and Western cause my G. 
9. “Check” the minorities to make sure they fall in line on ideology and America First else suffer the legally compliant consequences of the betrayal. You ain’t gonna bite the hand that feed ya and getta a bird pass my amiggga. 
10. Humanity in America and the Western aligned nations is the embodiment of Americas First. Any donkey parties or hippy individuals telling you otherwise are either closet masked KKK members, enemies of America and the Western world or are Giant Lizard themselves or sympathizer. Humanity runs through America. Any entity pushing interests that is not based on primary America First interests are not with America. 
11. If a company is registered in the Cayman Islands or British Virgin Islands (BVI), it’s most likely a Giant Lizard company. Any company that believe the Chairman is bigger than the CEO is likely Giant Lizard and Co. I’d rather buy from the Eastern European, Balkan, Central Asia and MENA scammers registered in Cyprus with tougher KYCs than from these Caribbean clowns, home of authoritarian/communistic Cuba. You know the same one that tried to sell the American built and financed Panama Canal to the Giant Lizard to destroy America Noriega style basically for almost free.

Future wars in the next 30 years will still be fought mainly by human operatives. The difference between now and the future is AI and robotic assisted kinetic warfare. As long as there are a lot of human beings that still need to work to maintain a livelihood, no country especially those with a huge population will fully devote to development of humanoid war machines nor go full-fledge on AI. It’s basically bots against bots, robots against robots at this point. Yes, the Giant Lizard is creating a lot of new things copying existing US inventions like putting lasers on their planes, EMP on their satellites and space planes. Yes, they even managed to get the re-routed US stealth plane parts. These developments are obviously concerning but as more safeguards are put into place, the US is not waiting idly either. It’s just the US is not as desperate as the Giant Lizard to show and tell due to their deteriorating economy and fires everywhere that needs to be extinguished. The bottomline is future wars in most people’s lifetimes will still be fought with living organisms but with technology aiding the effort. Will there be more cuts in the military in some areas? 

Sure, but you won’t notice it since turnover is high among the enlisted anyway and they can effectively cut the size of a certain section of the military through natural job attrition. What will likely happen is the private sector will be much more attractive with much higher pay and high demand due to talent shortage of US manufacturing expansionary on-shore, re-shore and near-shore movement. Even that sector will likely need to highly invest in robotics and AI to either fully automate or cobot their way out of the talent shortage. I foresee the US will eventually make everything with incremental capital expenditure investments in automated manufacturing. You need a strong and self-sufficient economy to fend off enemies and create effective deterrences without fear of retaliation from mortal enemies. I think lasers, drones, underwater cable cutters, sea mine laying bots, EMP, stealth and space age technology will become the main weapons of a kinetic war with human beings as the spotter for and controllers of these technologies.

How to survive the AI impact in the “Military” occupational sector. 

Yes, there will likely still be the need for boots on the ground, but increasingly, what will matter equally are the organisms behind the scene handling and executing commands via the robots and the technologies.The Giant Lizard is extremely wounded right now therefore it is increasingly aggressive on the asymmetric/unconventional warfare front like harassing ships transiting the Taiwan straight or trying to do mini-blockades. They are far from ready for a conventional war or land a large seafaring forces Normandy style on the very few beachheads they could land on in Taiwan. The US should keep doing what it is currently doing, steady but progressively incremental investments in all fronts that it needs to be fully self-sufficient. It might take the US a decade to get it all done but the US has that kind of time on its hands. The last thing the US should do is get its shots altered or its way of life changed on other organisms’ time table. The US has sufficient and incrementally more rare earth exploration and mining capabilities along with strong environmental safeguards, it is actively building up the clean-tech processing powers with private and industrial policies government money. 

It might take the US five years to a decade to be fully self-sufficient, but again, it has that kind of time on its hands. Semiconductors and other high techs are a matter of manufacturing not technological capabilities. US needs a large injection in high-tech manufacturing not necessarily just the laborers to do the manufacturing. Mexico has plenty of that and pre-pandemic was like 20 pesos per hour even in the high salary norte border states. The US need an industrial policy on robotics implementation which it has a huge advantage over the Giant Lizard because it has a shortage of talents not a surplus hence there are no social issues with implementing these new cost saving, labor hour saving projects. Yes, the short fall might be in the single-digit trillions but the US should make that investment as it will create way more jobs and create a huge value chain of everything else. If Walmart is already doing drone deliveries, everyone else can adapt too. Everything going forward will be humans working with the machines, it will be even more so in the national defense military sector where those who are being high sought after will be those who understands advanced technologies and how to use them effectively and strategically for the benefit of the country.

First of all, don’t think of anyone associated with the Giant Lizard as attractive. I guarantee you they are not. Due to poor prenatal care, pollution/adverse environmental factors and deficients in nutrition, many of these Lizards are actually plastic surgery aided humanoid looking animals with bestiality demeanors. Most of Giant Lizards were beaten as children therefore most suffer from permanent physiological issues. Like the Kimchi Bay organisms, all these societies associated with the Giant Lizards are perverse and unhealthy. Superiors raping and/or abusing/murdering their underlying are common occurrences. The paid state-sponsored Westerner influencers if they are indeed paid won’t tell you any of the Giant Lizard’s dark side because they can’t and likely will be disappeared if they do. Without any exaggeration, every single Giant Lizard living in America and residing in the West either intentionally or subliminally trying to harm their host countries. In fact, the ones that do assimilate into American or Western culture are seen as weirdos for believing in Christianity or any religion besides communism, traitors because the Giant Lizard will always find a way to blackmail them to harm America and the West or the Giant Lizard will find a way to harass their families or friends with secret police stations in America. 

Let me tell you how to avoid the Giant Lizard honey trap and any other type of traps. Simple, don’t deal with any minorities for anything that requires power and wealth. Remember this, it will save your life. Mainstream, non-minorities own America and the Western world and everyone else are just guest visitors. The owners will always have an immense incentive to see its properties strive, the guests, not so much. Don’t bother empowering them, most of them are just opportunists who could have stayed in their own non-mainstream, non-American and European countries but decided to forsake their own people’s suffering to enjoy a prosperous life in America.  The most disgusting part about all of this is they are so stupid that the KKK Democrat members who abused them for centuries are now seen as their savior when the Abe Republicans like Ken Paxton are actually helping them grow as people. These people are helping the Giant Lizard and other adversaries promote their ideology, products, services and everything else frequently for money without legally registering as foreign agents. California is full of the Giant Lizard spies that have infiltrated every aspect of California. Many critical products and services in California now depend on the Giant Lizard to make it all work including military weaponry systems such as components and parts.

The Giant Lizard spy network in US led West and how to foil the honey trap plot.

There is one thing you need to understand right now. Anything that you do that is of value that the Giant Lizard doesn’t have will make you a target of the Giant Lizard spying. It may all seem like uncoordinated efforts but in reality they are highly coordinated events and nothing is ever a coincidence when dealing with a Giant Lizard. When the Giant Lizard is caught red-handed, they will then play innocent or severe their ties with these Lizards. The Giant Lizards know Americans and Europeans hate the Lizards hence they won’t succeed utilizing any other method except exploiting American and Western trust economy where everyone trust each other until proven untrustworthy. The Giant Lizard’s ultimate playbook is usually targeting the old, the lonely and the horny because in Giant Lizard land their Lizards are subjected to inhumane treatments where rape and sexual abuses including those committed by their own family members are highly praised alpha behaviors deemed as strong and admirable. Those who don’t engage in this behavior are either disappeared or gone extinct via evolution. The Giant Lizard type of sexual relationship fulfill the needs of Beta people of America and the West including many types of minorities who never assimilated into the Western hemisphere in the first place. Just look at the British, German and French slaves of the Giant Lizard including the British allowing them to build super embassies with possible inhumane torture chambers. Much of the riots in French are spread by certain Giant Lizard owned social media that inflames the hatred of people who should be grateful they are no longer living in whatever hellhole they came from. 

Not to mention all the election meddling and anti-AI data center propagandas that the Democrats call “amplification” not “misinformation.” If you are Beta and you want to ensure you don’t fall into their trap, you need to first ensure you have multiple alternative legally compliant suppliers that can fulfill your needs, whatever legally compliant needs it may be. The Sun people, the half-Iberian chicharron people, the Southern Tropics people and the Kimchi Bay people are good alternatives. When you get into a relationship with a Giant Lizard, you are in a relationship with all the Giant Lizards and the baggage. This is a known fact that few people actually think about. These lizards are brutally practical, emotionless, brainwashed to be extremely “patriotic” and do not have “an ounce of democratic bone in their body.” Never befriend, work for or be in any kind of relationship with the Giant Lizard. The Israelis had to learn that the hard way yet their offshoots still like to be associated with the Giant Lizards including eating their food on the holiest days of the year, Christmas holiday. Avoid the Giant Lizard at all cost including their products especially the electronics/AI/ robotics  that likely will transmit all data back to them and everything you worked hard for will be reverse engineered. 

Happy day of the dead, oh wait, that’s the day after Halloween when all the lies get exposed and the truth is dug out of the ground. As predicted, Netanyahu will retain power and basically won the election. These donkey a-holes keep trying to chase fool’s gold like the chemical properties will suddenly change if they keep at it not realizing how short their political existence will be if they keep trying to destroy America with policies that help everyone else including the Giant Lizard, the undocumented, the meritocracily undeserving and the treasonous Republican party neocon Giant Lizard lover traitors. This is America’s century and America’s universe, if you don’t like it, feel free to jump out at anytime, blackout dates and restrictions may apply. I dislike people who dress up as someone who they are not with the intent to harm others and their interests. 

The Democrats are the reincarnation of the KKK, grand wizard and all. They should dress up in a white cloth holding up a poster saying “DEI to hold you back.” Texas has many Black Wall Streets, there are hardly any in California besides Baldwin Hills. Democrats tend to also give out the crappiest candies and are the type that put a whole dog bow of candy left at the porch into their bags. Not surprising given how much Democrats love to count and distribute other people’s money and money they don’t have by robbing future generations out of social benefits. In fact, the Democrats want to raise taxes at a time when Republican families are economically hurt by the high inflation and taxes caused by the Democrats through their communistic wealth redistribution programs that they started in the 1930s beginning with the New Deal meant to distract Americans from learning Democrats’ near existential extinct due to its racist, bigoted and terroristic past. Now they put on a sanctimonious mask of whatever face of the young rising star in their party.

Trick or Treat, the scary Halloween lights-off James Talarico Democratic Party’s KKK costume disguised as MAGA Republican Ken Paxton.

Their racism toward minorities and blacks never stops. Instead of KKK terrorism, they employ Giant Lizard type of surveillance level tyranny in a roundabout “kill them with fake niceness” to strip them of motivation, strong will and incentives to succeed by giving them free stuff.  In doing so, they are destroying America along with it. Just look at California and New York, where Giant Lizards roam free latching on to celebrities, organizations of credibility, elites, politicians and everyone else that are useful to them. They are allowed to buy up American land especially farm land with water rights, Western companies with strong branding and cutting edge technologies, steal IP, kidnap Americans and dissidents, setting up secret police stations with intimidation campaigns and much worse. 

All under the explicit and tacit consent of the beloved donkey Democrats and the treasonous neocon Giant Lizard lover that even named free fighters in Eastern Turkestan as terrorists. This all changed with MAGA, Republican patriotism and the love of the English language. Under President Trump and the Republicans, the English language may finally become the official language of the United States, Giant Lizards and other adversaries wanting to destroy America can no longer hostile acquire American assets. The MAGA Republicans will stand up for the tea rights and every right American can and should have in determinant to the Giant Lizard and all enemies foreign and domestic. Even if a Democrat gives me candy, I would think twice even accepting it. I don’t trust the Democrats for anything except as thieves, criminals and traitors. Why would anyone vote for a donkey just like no one wants to work for or with or be anywhere never an a** and especially an a**h***.

Giant Lizard is in real trouble in all fronts. So are their spying targets. They target a lot of Giant Lizard descendants even if these people don’t think they are Giant Lizards. Many of these people are not true and pure ideological Americans. They have perpetual non-democratic, non-Christian values which run contrary to the free world. When their “National Team” after spending hundreds of trillions of dollars and putting extreme undue pressure on market participants trying to rescue its property, stock, employment, technology and investment markets but still fails, you know something is unreversible. I been discussing the honey trap consequences for a while, they are all coming to reality. The Giant Lizard is spying on the elites and are using various islands and other incentives to attract sin-seeking all mighties to their islands and then blackmail them later. The top people have Giant Lizard wives and girlfriends and almost all of them show spy tendencies. They can never, I repeat never, escape their Giant Lizard roots even if they wanted to, because the Giant Lizard will use every familial, cultural and any tie to ensure they are ideologically within their orbits. 

This is actually the most disgusting part about the Giant Lizards as they are like barnacles or leeches that such on the host and eventually weight on the host and slowing deteriorate and destroy the host once they become strong enough via leeching off the host. America and the Western aligned nations must wise up to this and start plan B, C, D and whatever it takes to import substitute products, ideology, people and talents if necessary to do so. The way things are going, any company/organization associated with descendants or look like descendants of the Giant Lizard will likely have to provide a significant discount on everything including in capital markets. It’s clear Giant Lizard descendants can’t be trusted with anything and literally have zero loyalty to America, Americans nor have any loyalty to the Western aligned nations and people. America and Western aligned nations must begin slowly substitute these people into marginalized technical positions which many of them are doing anyway hence they just need to remove them as management and ownership level people from the supply chain. Ensure Americans and Western aligned people have every opportunity to replace them and permanent ride on their efforts via AI.

Ken Paxton winning, Alaska  Arctic Circle development, Junior Ivy League Villanova University, Greenland and beware of US/Western aligned companies linked with the Giant Lizard and its pending property, stock, employment, AI market crashes.

Americans need to grasp the STEM fundamentals to move forward. Ken Paxton’s Texas with AI data centers, stock exchanges, Alpha ++ cities, world-class number one universities and most Fortune 500 headquarters in any locale will probably come true in one form or another. I may or may not like the man, but I believe the party is about more than just one man or woman, it is its abolitionist history before it was a popular movement, the party of Lincoln, freedoms for all and pro business. I would not feel comfortable living in a country where Democrat Giant Lizard honey trap spies are everywhere like Americans in London during the Industrial Revolution. Texas’ biggest current issues ostensibly is its lack of Alpha + and Alpha ++ cities. Its real issue is catching up in higher education pipeline and stronger infrastructure across the state. We are talking about better quality highways, less toll roads, more street lights to improve visibility, better integration of its public universities such as strengthen the University of Texas system and more. 

Texas already has more land than California and will soon have more people than California. In terms of total landmass Alaska is much bigger and with global weather change, Alaska is in prime real estate near the Arctic Circle and will be a transportation, mineral exploration and AI data center economic superpower. In the future, the Arctic Circle nations will prosper due to the opening up of the routes and large mineral deposits now cheaply accessible for explorations. Alaska’s wealth will enrich the United States and increase its economic and national security via rare earth freedom and tear down the liberal left’s objections to US for Americans only strategy where population and other vices are left for the Giant Lizard and the second and third world to fix. The Giant Lizard is in a terrible position to reap the benefits from global weather change hence it is trying hard to reverse the harm done with green technology, unfortunately, it’s too late for that. If you think some sea and islands to the Giant Lizard’s south are hotly contested, just imagine how well it will fare against economic and military superpowers. The Giant Lizard was able to get a piece of the action when the North Pole is frozen and nations can establish research base. With the ice melted, now nations in the area will no longer allow that. The US will likely continue to get concessions from Denmark to chop away Greenland for its own benefits. The Arctic Bear always saw themselves as Europeans and never was a true friend of the Giant Lizard hence will never willingly allow the Giant Lizard to encroach upon its land. Plus Arctic Bears and Giant Lizards are two different species all together. I think Villanova will likely become a junior Ivy League college within two decades due to its marketing surplus and wealthy alumni net worth who are energized by the university’s development as a sports and academic powerhouse. The school’s basketball program is back on track and its football program is basically getting an upgrade.

I think the Sixers will win two and I believe LeBron will likely play a total of five more years. I think LeBron may be chasing 50,000 regular season points in addition to 6-7 championships which will put him ahead of everyone else in basically all sports. LeBron has the type of physicality that can allow him to still play in the NBA at 50 years old. People talk about Sixers stars’ injury history but fails to realize how deep this team is which is essentially a too big to fail situation due to its scale. You got the starting five superstars or basically future superstars in the case of VJ Edgecombe. The ridiculously you got 20+ points per game stars in their prime like Anfernee Simons coming off the bench. You also got KCP who basically is a starter off the bench too. 

Then if they need size, they got Tacko Tuesday, the tallest player in the NBA now and one of the tallest players ever at 300 plus pounds to clog up the lanes. They also got above average bench players like Wade and Barlow when healthy. LeBron can play all five position effectively and effortlessly. LeBron create so much mismatch that it is almost unfair that he also have teammates at the other starting positions who are superstar or future potential superstars. LeBron is probably capable of averaging 20 points for his first three years with the loaded Sixers and can still be around 20 point average in later parts of his Sixers career. I think that team has at least seven all-star level players who actually make the all-star team.

How many championships will the Sixers superteam win and the future of the GOATless MLB.

I think Barlow, Simons and Edgecombe will have excellent chances of becoming all-stars. This iteration of a superteam is the GOAT of all superteams. LeBron at this age is much much better physically and athletically than Jordan ever was playing for the Wizards despite being a few years younger. The Wizard Jordan was no longer Air Jordan and basically left the NBA because of LeBron is coming into the league as some may have theorized. LeBron at 41 and in his 24th NBA season playing for the premier NBA championship contender is basically playing like Jordan in his prime in terms of his contributions to his team. That’s crazy which is why getting two to three more rings is not so crazy for LeBron to achieve. This is not a team with washed up superstars nor some inexperienced playoffs team before Kawhi arrived in Toronto the first time around. 

The MLB will probably be fine after the short lockout but its star power is more fragmented than ever. With the fall of Ohtani from GOAT conversations, there are literally no one remotely in the position to take assume the GOAT apparent position. Not Judge, not Harper, not PCA, not Yordan, not Miz, not Schwarber and not anyone at this point. Ruth is a legend but played with plumbers. Aaron was the GOAT until his major records were broken by Bonds who unfortunately didn’t reach 3,000. All of them aren’t two way dominant pitchers and hitters though Ruth probably pitched to the plumbers too. Besides the obvious issues when discussing Bonds’ baseball legacy, from a record book standpoint, there is no clear GOAT in this sport right now. I think this a good time to speculate on cheap rookie cards via forming a bulk rookie cards pipeline farm system. 

Timing is everything. The best time to join a company if your intention is to stay for a near frictionless year is September. In basically every industry, September is when hiring picks up significantly. September hiring is also the minimum amount of time required to sufficiently train up a new employee to get through the holiday season and the busy early months of the new year. If you wish to experience frictionlessness, make sure you also stay relatively frictionless at work and treat the job like a job not a career. 

13% male single – Generally cool. The blue collar ones are usually kind of okay. The white collar ones that are managers are typically pretty good in red states where they actually had to earn their place in the echelon via meritocracy. The educated one are pretty good and are typically law abiding and humble but can be very supportive in your career. I personally would rather work for someone like that than some of the other ones I will talk about below. 

13% female single – Honestly, avoid at all cost white collar or blue collar. It may not be them personally but it’s a cultural thing. 

13% male with family – Even better than the single ones. 

13% male with family – Can be bearable but avoid if possible. 

Iberian Mulatto male single – Usually have a gigantic chip on their shoulders for some reason. It’s so confusing sometimes. Very similar to 13% in insecurity and attitude but has this weird backstabbing un-straightforwardness to them. Like that famous quote in that movie in a nutshell, “watch out for the vatos, learn them Spanish.” Avoid talking about anything American, unlike the 13%, these people have their anchors elsewhere and many still don’t believe they are true Americans. It’s the same logic as to why Native Americans made bad slaves in the colonial era. 

Iberian Mulatto female single – Pretty much the same as above but more sassy and can be more volatile. 

Iberian Mulatto male with family – Basically the same with or without families. 

Iberian Mulatto female with family – Basically the same with or without families. 

Flied Lice, Sashimi, Kimchi and coconut curry chicken male single – Good for technical stuff but are almost never worth it as a dependable partner as they don’t go by the same social rules as perceived true pure blooded Americans do. These people see profits before country, social good and patriotism. Most of them can never escape their origination countries as they do these thousand year history BS that tries to claim them all as their own even though they had no role you making them successful. 

Flied Lice, Sashimi, Kimchi and coconut curry chicken female single – Absolutely the does the most damage in terms of seducing beta Western males. Almost all of them are highly fertile and susceptible of being a Giant Lizard spy via the honey trap elite spy program. 

Flied Lice, Sashimi, Kimchi and coconut curry chicken female with family- Even worse because they now are training and anchoring highly probable future spies and Trojan horses.  

Flied Lice, Sashimi, Kimchi and coconut curry chicken male with family- see the above. 

Mainstream male single – Great as a boss compared to most other. The blue collar ones are pretty good too. 

Mainstream female single – Pretty bad. Basically just stay away from female bosses whenever possible. Yes, there are great one, but it’s a low probability event like blocking Shaq or Yao Ming. You might be able to block their shots but they may get angrier and score a lot more than they normally do. 

Mainstream male with family – Pretty good. 

Mainstream female with family – Probably even worse than the single ones. 

Red n’ Purple and Small population foreigners and minorities – Usually decent in terms of work place dynamics as they will be more submissive and yield to the mainstream but they don’t speak good English so you might have to be patient with them.

Ocekay knew the 17th floor will be one of the most dangerous missions Ocekay ever performed therefore Ocekay was prepared for the worst including finding a way to electronically deliver an encrypted copy of a memoir about Ocekay’s unraveling of an elusive tropical southern region semiconductor smuggling network that was recently expanded into the Sun people land, Kimchi bay and chip plant island involving millions of state, private and public actors, a true who’s who web of the prominent, rich, famous, politically connected, the powerful and politics itself. Ocekay had exposed a significant portion of this network to you know who three years ago yet no actions were taken most likely due to myopia and greed. 

Besides KKK liberal descendent headquarters state mansions, government contacts, Western and global financial institutions involved, detailed manifest of every single fake transaction, pictures of the data centers, various locations and web of ownership mapping, technological direction, the people and their personalities behind it all, Ocekay really did not know much about any of it. Frankly, Ocekay was a bit grateful for the opportunity provided by an attractive adult whose family lives literally in a mansion fifty feet from a world-class hotel where the world’s most famous people were dined and wined right under the noises of authorities whose indigenous red flagged cars are frequently parked next to the exotics. While Ocekay was writing the memoir, Ocekay could not help but feel romanticized by the whole scene with some of the world’s most famous Alpha + structures in the backdrop drinking sparkling drinks on a sofa just inches behind a glass railing a thousand above ground watching the neon lights and the boats pass by with some of the most interesting and beautiful companies in the world. 

Ocekay knows people are just people, no one is all good or all bad. Ocekay frequently talk with the people on the planes full of foreign agents, prostitutes/escort looking to make some money in a new country, politicians, business people, dissents and characters of all kinds. Frankly speaking, the same person involved in the ring could have been a law abiding citizen in the land of freedom if they weren’t born and raised where they were born and raised in. While the front is being interrogated somewhere in the world with lots of tropical fungus feet, the real masterminds sit behind an APT, a south central sea, a hotel with direct phone line communication with sovereign wealth fund relatives of a place with lots of tropical fungus feet and the real masterminds behind the mezzanines. 

Ocekay couldn’t help but reminisce the thousands of attractive people that walk those Western styled mansion street, the secret alleyways and passages, the interesting concessions and locales and the people who always seem to be sad and without a smile. Ocekay also could not forget the desperate people roaming the streets including the elderly who put their dead daughter on the sidewalk to elicit help because they state welfare system is essentially nonexistent. The smell of delicious food on the street mixed with Ocekay’s noble upbringings conjure the type of emotions that Ocekay could not subdue without focused efforts. OceKay knew almost everyone in this whole smuggling ring are just pawns of the state and the state is beyond it all with its state-owned banks overseas branches financing it all. Ocekay’s train of thought was interrupted by the attractive nurse’s nudge. They need to go now if they are to return before sunrise. Within fifteen minutes, the two marched toward the 17th floor.

Nothing escapes economic realities, not even the internet nevermind elastically constructed hobbies built on high disposable income expenditures. When oil and gasoline prices are hitting near historical highs and gasoline prices are hitting all-time highs it naturally pushes cost on everything else up. You would think this would be excellent for alternative assets right? Nope. Not even for Bitcoin which many believe are legitimate investments. Collectible cards on the other hand is much less liquid, lacks institutionalized standardization and most people don’t consider it as mainstream investment and its lack of inclusion in major investment portfolios show exactly that. So sell everything now right? Not exactly. If you sell everything now which will essentially constitute a fire sale, it will likely not work out well for your investment. 

The market for big dollar cards is extremely illiquid, don’t be fooled by what I can’t say here. Think about NFT and what happened there. Me, myself and I. That’s the scary part. I have got rid almost all of my big dollar cards that started out as worthless. Now I am focused on reinvesting funds into expanding my rookie card farm system pipeline. The streamers and breakers are opening so much that literally huge boxes upon boxes of chromes, Optics and Prizms rookie cards are literally being given away for free. I might have a lot of cards, I certainly won’t say no to a lot more high-end rookie cards for free granted 90% of those rookie cards will probably either be donated or given away by me in eight years as literal goodwill to people and organizations that I know due to my portfolio management strategy. I’m soaking up as much cheap less than $50 cards that basically can no longer be graded anymore due to rising cost for pennies on the dollar.

Sell Jordan, Ohtani, Brady and other so-called GOATesque chase cards ASAP.

This is not a hyperbole. There are literally boxes upon boxes on boxes of top loaded chase rookie auto/jersey/insert/numbered cards for less than a dollar per card.  This is precisely why I find this the absolute optimal time to get rid of my overpriced cards that already peaked to acquire unprecedented value available on the market. I’m not saying the GOAT and GOATesque cards are extremely overpriced, I’m not saying the margin swing between unjustified premium on those cards and the eye shrinking prices of almost fire sale level high valued rookie level players are basically unprecedented. It’s not 2 is bigger than 1, it’s the synergy from 0 and 1 creates 10. That’s the type of trend we are really talking about here. AI is becoming commonplace. Wait when the credibility of AI as a technology becomes established, grading company’s competitive advantages will mostly be gone when standard metrics based on precision technology become a reality. 

By then, cards will truly have arrived as an investable asset due to standardization and fungible nature of its base attributes leaving the growth to the underlying asset not the medium of exchange which are the paper cards themselves. Think of it as a stock certificate that mostly grows as the performance of the underlying asset increases. Sure, scripophily is a hobby and some certificates do have historical and economic value as standalone collectibles, but that’s only a small piece of a very large pie. We are in a poly-GOAT epoch where GOATness is redefined by those who refine greatness. Bottomline, G-Word ratio is at an all-time low for future GOATs. If there are any other words for undervalued, I would probably say meh.

Netanyahu is a legend and no one can dispute that. Being the leader of one of the universe’s most influential and powerful nations in the world elevate the status of its leadership. I remember seeing him in person years ago and was mesmerized by his demeanor and power. He spoke like what a true king would say, anything he wanted to without filters. When given tour of a car factor he asks why can’t there be flying cars. He is a true MIT/Harvard hybrid of a genius and a consummate  humanitarian who cares very much for the country he was born in. You may not like him but to his people he is Ho, Lee, Chavez, Castro, Washington and President Trump or whoever else you hate but are beloved by their own people. People think Israel is technologically advanced and a geopolitical stalwart of the West. All of this may be true except it’s far from the truth. Israel is like the UK. UK may be a no body now compared to its heydays, it however still influence the minds and hearts of its Commonwealth members with around half of the world’s population. People may say the Lost Tribes people as misers and much worse things, however, people forget they are very practical and rational people who pay for value. They may be cheap on dismantling price tags but they develop supply chains with excellent value. One of the biggest misconceptions about their power is not the trope stuff, it’s the fact that they supposedly house the remains of the most sacred relic of them all, Jesus. 

People say they don’t like Israel, the Lost Tribes people and Netanyahu yet worship a Jew and fight very hard to “punish” the death of said Jew, Jesus. Even funnier than that, those who supposedly hate Israel and the Lost Tribes people soaks up everything in the bible which in essence is all based on Jewish stories and of Jewish origins. If the UN is the center of the world, then the US is the center of the universe. If the bible is the most influential literature in the history of the world and the Holy Sepulchre is the closest thing to the gate to heaven on earth, then Israel is the creator himself and Netanyahu is the chosen prophet of its second advent. Regardless what is sitting in that stone carvings, the world watches. It is symbolism in the form of trinity. Why the heck you think people been fighting for Jerusalem for millenniums for? A piece of prime desert real estate? The Giant Lizard’s best performing stock market index out of its two main indexes experienced a whopping 3% and 420% aggregate growth in five years and 30 years respectively versus the measly 67% and 930% aggregate growth experienced by S&P 500 during the same period. Giant Lizard’s other main index experienced huge losses in the last five years and in the last twenty years based on available reportable data. This is also during a time of its great rise. Its real estate market is doing so well that it only experienced on average around 60% drop from its peak and still dropping fast. Almost all of their housing are Soviet style apartment blocks built 40 plus years ago using material that last 20-30 years on a good day. Giant Lizards probably feel extremely well sleeping in their beautiful, rustic apartments, remodeling an every day with their neighbors chirping at night, natural molding breezes and roulette style gambles with every movement of the feet. When trust is missing there is no freedom, no mood to spend, no long term plans that usually come with certainty etc.

Netanyahu Israel wins; How to exploit the Giant Lizard AI, One Belt One Road and everything else after fall of Hungary and Serbia allies.

When Hungary shook in April of 2006, it was devastating for the Arctic Bear and bad for the Giant Lizard. When Serbia landslided it was devastating for both actors. Then comes the final blow of Netanyahu who is critical in establishing a Western beachhead on Iran and the rest of the enemies of the world. Even if Giant Lizard’s numbers are real and it is actually growing at around 4.5% in 2026, it is in a spiral that it likely won’t climb out of. That society can’t innovate on its own not because of lack of centralized resources. It’s because its system of governance requires unquestionable central power that naturally suffocate innovation of any kind. Most of Giant Lizard’s AI data are useless due to its quantity and quality. Because no one can do anything innovative or critically think in that country due to its stifling societal group think, it produces too much junk data that seem useless but become a burden to its data centers, processing supply chain and economy. No one in their right mind in the West would put much trust in the Giant Lizard’s anything for mission critical projects nor are these data useful to the West and West aligned nations that consume the most and generate most economic output. The behavior of the Lizards and the Western humans are totally different in logic, morality and almost every other aspect in life. Its own diaspora Lizards wouldn’t last a day working in Giant Lizard land where there is almost zero labor rights enforced to protect the rights of the working class. In this kinds of conditions plus Honey Bear’s 150 years old stated goal and the collapse in every aspect of society including its property markets, stock markets, job markets, exit ban and disappearance to mental hospital/prison fears, who would actually sacrifice their lives for a country that will steal everything they created from their tangible assets, intellectual properties and businesses to their heart, kidney and every other functional organ/body part they have while alive. 

Now, let’s talk about how to perform some small ball capitalism on the Giant Lizard to extract assets from it, be seen as patriotic/heroic and destroy it. First thing first, do not confront them directly. This is not the time to fight their regulars. They are still extremely formidable as an enemy. Their current situation is not that they are near collapse, their issue is they are rotten within and high distracted by perceived and largely real threats and mal-intentions from real and formidable adversaries in large numbers who have all kinds of grievances against them. Their absolute Achilles heel right now is their exports. This is their only driver of real economic growth right now. Giant Lizards are buying nothing right now domestically yet their over-invested and over-capacitated facilities still need to sell their products to generate a return. This brings many issues it never dealt with before and ones that make them extremely vulnerable by decisions made by Western consumers and Western aligned people and nations. If the Giant Lizard can’t even deliver the basic necessities to its Lizards, it will have lost all legitimacy and its Mandate of Heaven. Every time their successive dynasties and regimes lose this celestial edict, they almost always start over with a new regime due to endless riots, revolutions and natural disasters that collapses the whole system. You as a Western consumer don’t have much incentives to boycott them because 1. their slave labor like conditions give you the best prices 2. You don’t have parity level alternatives at that price range 3. Maintaining a high standard of living means you need to buy lots of stuff but you won’t work for slave labor wages therefore you can afford to buy all their slave labor produced stuff. With these as the premise, think about how you can exploit them one UMET gazillionaire at a time. Keep in mind the liberals are liars and losers who never mention the tariff is almost exclusively paid by concession from Giant Lizard companies that foot much of the tariff bill in reality which is in turn paid by the Giant Lizard from their export subsidies. 

The Western and Western aligned companies that supposedly paid these tariffs got it all back plus the large portions paid by the Giant Lizard themselves via national central government subsidies. These liberals or illiberal whose ancestral roots started in the 1800s with the KKK have stunted the 13% from growing up and maturing, also fails to understand the Giant Lizard held down inflationary pressure by behaving in a certain way to keep prices super low which is contra to what happened elsewhere in the world. Now with the IEEPA refund much of these concessions goes back to the economy to benefit every American and the Western aligned world. Be sure to click and report every Giant Lizard AI generated advertisements much of which are drop-ship or straight up scams on Western social media platforms. Make sure you report and propagate any perception of illegality displayed by monetized Giant Lizard channels on social media to social media platforms, US and international agencies and be sure to CC Giant Lizard government agencies and e-commerce companies to let them know Western aligned countries and people care about the rule of law especially when citizens of the Giant Lizard break their own country’s VPN and the Great Fire Wall laws and regulations. As the Giant Lizards are starving to death, they will do anything for money. It is up to you to expose them, let the world know while putting the Giant Lizard’s government on notice too. The Giant Lizards themselves are using the same exact strategy to report their own companies/employers because their government won’t do anything about the overt abuses conducted by their own companies. 

One day, the attractive nurse secretly showed Ocekay a stash of keys and an access card. The nurse says these are what needed to access the 17th floor where the Man vs. Tank (MVT) is located. Ocekay asked if the nurse had ever seen the MVT before, the nurse  said no. It turns out the 17th floor is a secret floor reserved for the most heavily guarded state secrets that the state decided to keep them in a heavily dense area to prevent American and Western rescues. Many Americans, Europeans and other Western allied important dissidents are housed there. Precisely because of this, all “caretakers” and “medical staff” that work on the floor are military and police personnel. The only person in the hospital that has access to the facility is the director of the hospital. The director of the hospital like many people in the history of that country are perverts pedophiles who enjoy having affairs with minors and the youth. 

This person like many others created a “poverty alleviation foundation” ostensibly to eradicate poverty but in reality used these types of foundation to sexually and inhumanely exploit children and young adults for the entertainment of local, national and global elites who travel afar on a weekly basis to satisfy their deviant cravings. The attractive nurse tells Ocekay that every finding a job in the country is a low probability event with a housing crash and all the foreign companies leaving, there are no real jobs left. The nurse was forced to become one of the director’s many concubines even though they had an age difference of 40 years. The attractive was stuffed with sex toys and had to attend public meetings while the director hit the vibrate button on the remote control. The director like many in the country watch a lots of JAV using mirror sites of illegally seized pirate while at the same time regularly attend courses on the “communistic moral compass.” Not only does the director and almost everyone in some position of power in that country do that to young adults, they also do that to young children. 

The attractive nurse like many others were forced to be sexually abused by the director. One night when the nurse was on the bed of the director and with the director in deep sleep, the nurse took the keys and access card. The nurse had documented many of the director’s heinous deeds over the last three years including mapping out the mysterious and layout of the hospital and the inner network of the director of the hospital. The nurse had to make additional bodily sacrifices to gain favor with the directors’ rivals. The moment Ocekay entered the hospital, the nurse knew the right time have come by. The nurse chose that particular day to reveal to Ocekay the keys and access card because the director is deeply asleep after the regularly scheduled concubine swap session event was over. The hospital also force patients to take medicine that hardens their poop then ask the homosexuals to perform “poop soften” work using special OTC sprays. Ocekay was not immuned to it though Ocekay put on a protective poop layer outside of the main area as a buffer to minimize Ocekay’s mental grievance. It emerged as a rumor that after Ocekay had left the hospital, the person who did this regularly had both of their hoofs chopped off by the local government as a token of goodwill and presented to Ocekay as a memento which Ocekay declined. Due to the attractive nurse was the only medical staff professional on duty for that area at night and the orderly was half asleep, Ocekay and nurse decided to execute their plan to go up to the 17th floor to meet and possibly rescue the MVT  within two hours so they can prepare for the provisions and perform a proper contingency plan. 

The Legend of Ocekay novel series is based on a true, original story written by The Permanent Contrarian.

California is full of Giant Lizard spies and sympathizers. Every single one of the Giant Lizard adjacent organisms might be a spy and could attempt to destroy America and the West. Every innocent looking Giant Lizard might be plotting to devastate America and the American way of life. In just a few months, one potentially confessed government official and another potential suspected Giant Lizard spy or sympathizer were caught red handed in almost the same active geographical area no more than 50 miles apart. Then there are the New York ones too. Surprise surprise, all happened in areas where there are a large population of Giant Lizard adjacent organisms. Besides the Giant Lizard secret police stations and spy center that are frequently located in dense Giant Lizard adjacent organisms areas, they recruit and cultivate the brightest young minds to commit espionage for them especially technological and economic ones. One of its main tactics is honey trap which many scandal plagued public figures and former government employees and consultants may have fallen for. You may already know this, before its current above face, the Democrats were the original KKK members. Most if not almost all KKK members in the South were the Democrats. 

The GOP/Republicans aka Abraham Lincoln’s party have always been for equality. Possibly the Democrats got jealous and hired or trained a crazy to kill him. The Democrats are like a me too product, it always was and always will be. They may have forced schools in Democrat hell states like the official home of the Skid Row to not teach that part of the history, but that’s what the internet and AI are for no? I had to personally ask my teacher as a young student how the switch happened and thankfully I had wonderful teachers almost all of them likely Republicans who patiently helped me to help me achieve my Ivy League American dream like everyone else. You are gaslighting me that the GOP, the party that was founded as an anti-slavery movement that brought freedom to everyone including to millions of slaves is racist and bigots but the Democrats who use to be the real racists, bigots and slave owners are not? Very funny, I would probably have believed it if I was a Democrat. I absolutely hate almost everything California stands for. No one cares about flaky snowflake things get tough immediately ghosting type of people. These transplants are not the kind of people who can successfully run a stage. In reality, the whole state survive on Asian immigrant’s Silicon Valley hence the state is super vulnerable to Giant Lizard spies because many Americans may think they all look alike except for the Southern ones.  JPL contract is up for auction, I think the best university to take over the contract from Young Weirdos in a big bang fashion is Johns Hopkins University who are already running the APL program as well as house significant portion of the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope operations on its campus.

New York and break up California Democrat donkeys former KKK anchor baby Giant Lizard sympathizers too treasonous to keep JPL therefore give it to Johns Hopkins University APL James Webb/Hubble space telescope, Silicon Valley and other fine American institutions.

Caltech is a midget enrollment sized liberal art kind of joint with many community college kids from nearby attending, it’s as wacky as Young Sheldon. JHU the first research university in the US and the real first research university in the world based on American world-class standards, is known to have received the most research expenditure funding in the world in the billions each year for decades and the second place is so far away that it’s not even in the same universe. JHU has pretty much succeeded in everything it does and this is just the latest in its aspirations which it is ready for by hiring JPL top director years ago. The contract will be awarded months before Trump’s term ends and JHU is a patriotic world-class university that put America and the humanity’s needs in the forefront. California has these hoods like Paris’ no-go zones that are so close to Los Angeles downtown and the vibrant Orange County area. In Attorney General and Senator Ken Paxton led states like Texas, no such place will ever materialize as these people are put to work and actually become wealthy, black wall street. Look, Caltech is a great school, it’s nearly 130 years old. It also has a very small endowment, student population size and it also doesn’t have the kind of cooperation with other elite universities nearby for a reason. Caltech is a super small private school in a basically satellite/suburb bedroom city of sort for Downton Los Angeles. Southern California have almost no true elite universities, if Caltech is counted as one, there are no other ones in a 350 miles radius. 

350 miles might seem close, however, in reality the car culture in America created the impression that if a place cannot be travelled to, from and get something done within normal business hours and before late night, it’s not really close. And that’s the core issue with California. Going from the Mexico border US city in San Diego to the Oregon border is about 800 miles about 12 hours of driving. The other issue is the perception of Stanford as a junior college which is still in its official name and is tied to the Berkeley hippy/liberal/social network type of vibe. Whether they talk about it or not, the rich people in this state have a weird fascination with their liberal legacies of donating to the poor on pity not merit. They fund these near million student at any given year institutions like the UC and CSU systems but totally forget maybe people who worked hard to get rich want their children to attend upper class Harvard ranked-esques colleges where the student to facility ratio is near 1:1 not 1:50 like the schools in authoritarian/communist countries or public schools in California where people are no different from natural resources and must share resources in cramped condition. It’s okay to sponsor a pet project or a token to be used for “empowerment” in whatever community, project or hood they come from. The real issue is that won’t resolve anything, at least not like how Texas put large number of these people to work and made them wealthy black Wall Street style. California live to live beyond its means and superficially treat everyone the same but in reality people won’t appreciate what they have if they never earned it. 

I guarantee you the same race of people engaged in hood activities are much more competent in Texas as they are in Southern California. You hardly find any certain minority demographic group king pins in Southern Californian versus in other states. Even in almost zero upfront cash illegal businesses the 13% demographic groups could only run the streets and could break into middle or upper family management. They poured their blood and became crips because of that into their crafts but end up only being a glorified janitor or porter equivalents in the legal world. How is that justice? I crunched the social numbers which include economic and societal collective expenditures, it just doesn’t make sense for the state. When you consider the disabilities, the lost of per capita contributions, state paid per capita prison cost and virus like plague of mind via instillation of communist gulag like values, it just baffling. The power to be does nothing to support these “small-businesses,l many of which are “minority-owned” while some are gangster chicks fronted aka “women-owned” enterprises with Los Angeles characteristics. The first time I got a sandwich from an OG in a bakery where I made sure I tried food made by different levels of the hierarchy, it was delicious. Why California can’t scale these types of operations is beyond me. There are real commercial values even as a tourism novelties by integrating the street culture and its cast of tear-dropping personalities into it. I just don’t understand why California is so fake when everyone knows the hand feel and texture is totally wrong between a real pair and the silicon stuffed ones. The excitement and adrenaline and the hormone release levels are just not the same. Real liberalism and freedom is when you can even integrate the OGs and BGsss into society and make them feel valued, loved and contributing tax paying residents. 

Liberals are so fake and are losers because they are fake KKK democrat slave owners heritaged descendants many of them bandwagoners that came from the East Coast with cousins still there that transitioned into me tooing the Republicans who are the real McCoys of American democracy. California is also the same state that brought Kamala Harris to the national stage. For some reason, every time I see her in a video laughing I vicariously live through calling in one of those 1-800 numbers talking to 13% customer service. I associate her either work for a call center or operating one. Of course this is the same state that also brought us disloyalty to the same white people that supported you and made something out of you even though you attended crappy schools by Harvard presidential standards just like the underserving man who probably done the same. Let’s not forget the 104 different genders now popular as drop-downs utilized by certain institutions in their hiring application processes and of course, who could remember the heshehimherithsih and all of that jazz. I just find it so ironic the people who emphasize their non-American heritage origins support the KKK majoritied party dating back all the way to the Indian and other minority removal services founding father Andrew Jackson. Don’t you find that ironic that someone who would want to support a party that removed people of her supposed namesake ethnic origin and who helped originated the terror of the KKK that exclusively targeted people of the origin that she supposedly says she belongs to thank you come again Pocahontas style? I would be super made too if my ancestors and I made all the money and you the laborer that took zero risks now believe you are entitled to my profits. Your brothers and sisters sold you out, you should beef with them, not with the people who have the kind of life you will never ever be able to enjoy anywhere else in the world. Shut the F up and maybe make something out of yourself you waning, ungrateful, lazy, adversely useless piece of Democrat ****. Vote Republican, vote Ken Paxton for Senator of Texas!

Yeap, I’m doing just that. Granted I have a large collection, I am keeping a very small percentage of these numbered in the thousands just for show and tell. Not trying to quiet flex or anything, it was kind of crazy keeping hundreds of 5,000 card count boxes of just Jordans, Bonds, Brady and Gretzky at one point though in my defense, they were like less than 50 dollars a box at some point when people frowned upon individuals taking collecting cards seriously like investments. I said this a few times before and I don’t mind saying it a few times more. The most valuable thing in life is not the thing you hold in your hand, it’s the time that it took you to hold a certain high potential thing in your hand while letting time naturally pass by. Most things appreciate overtime because most things cost more nominal value to make/discover over time except for industrial goods at scale though one can easily argue it’s not the same thing in sentimental value nor in quality or holistic value. 

Actually, almost everything you see today will likely significantly increase in value someday in the future, in most cases it’s just a matter of when and by how much. Back to the fundamentals regarding the FU reserve, why is that even a thing or important? Because there are clearly intangible factors that dictate your financial orientation whether you like it or not. If a dealer see you in a rush to sell, a real American would tell you point blank “look buddy, I don’t want to give you a bad deal but I’m not looking to buy that many at that price.” Can you really spend tens of thousands driving a 16 wheeler across the country or fly around the world carrying hundreds of 5,000 card count boxes? If your house’s window is broken and it’s near night, are you going to spend a lot of money you don’t have for urgent overnight repairs or are you going to quickly clear out the glasses, board up the opening, rest up and fix it tomorrow? According to the G-Word ratio, GOAT cards are beyond expensive. Even the cards of legends who are non-GOAT are going up crazily.

G-Word ratio indicate dump GOAT cards and buy basketball/baseball/football rookie chase cards of underrated 23 and under players for dollar or less each.

Don’t get me wrong, the rich and the dealers will still be rich without dumping their GOAT chase cards. The people who are the most financially vulnerable probably don’t have many chances like this with such low risk when the GOAT card market is hot. I’m more worried about the downside risk than the upside risk. If you only have a limited amount of money for cards, this opportunity probably may mean the world to you. Let’s be honest, you probably also don’t have a private jet nor a trillion dollar empire to worry about time wise. If you are decently stable, you just might be able to build up a card portfolio you normally wouldn’t get the chance to build as people are dumping their non-gradable low dollar value cards left and right in a fire sale type of cycle. If I were you, this is how I would do this. Transact the cards that are hot right now. If your goal is to use the fund to buy more card, try trading rather than selling outright to lower transaction fees. The person trading a lot of cheaper cards typically gives a huge discount to those who sell an expensive card the person desire to trade for. Since we are talking about trading down here, it makes a lot more sense to trade than outright buy. 

Obviously the logistics and transactional convenience of securing a variety of different type of wanted cards are less with trade than getting cash, but it’s not that difficult you just need to plan a little better. I don’t chase the cards of biggest stars from the draft. Yes, most GOATs come in as highly touted. There is only one issue with this. There are also significant number of GOATs like Brady who came into the league not highly touted and their chase cards initially were nearly worthless. Wait, but that’s a low probably event isn’t it? Yes, but just not low enough for me to ignore. A huge box of recent yard prospects cards 5,000 count box might cost $50 or even free. Many breakers wouldn’t even bat an eye to donate all the “fillers” they and their “team”pulled from the hundreds of boxes they open in a day. Storing these cards over time might cost more than acquiring these cards. My strategy is to platoon boxes. A player’s development takes time and the card market won’t recognize such development via high valuation until the player achieve a clear path to greatness. 

What does all this mean? I only keep 8 years of sports cards rookie pipeline boxes and every year I harvest boxes of cards that already reached its ripeness and either transact or giveaway the ones I don’t want to keep from those boxes. When a player play in a major sports league for 8 years, from a career actuarial standpoint it becomes clear if the player has potential or not because many players will by then have already experience at least a small part of their professional sports career prime and are likely around 30 years old. By then, there is really no time to significantly improve their probability of achieving greatness if they aren’t on that greatness path already. If you have little to no disposal purchasing power to spare, use diligence and time to expand your collection. Get all the current year’s bulk rookie cards that no one wants from all three sports for less than $50 dollars. When your gambling urge or impulses rise, find dollar boxes in your local LCS to fulfill your urge. Look through your collection once in a while to feed your habit. 

I rarely look through my vast collection when the 8 years timeline is not met except when a player experience a meteoric rise that prompts me to immediately evaluate the situation and transaction accordingly. Otherwise I don’t even think about those cards as my extensive multiple decade rookie card pipeline allow me to sort through many boxes every year that can be somewhat consuming if you don’t enough doing that or your sorting wasn’t great or if you don’t possess elite ball knowledge to recognize value in every aspect. For cards like these, I personally would keep these cards in a room that’s not too cold not hot with no pollution of any kind, no bugs or organism of any type that could harm the cards and a place and location that’s safe in all aspects. Just let it sit. You are not wealthy, you just have to let your brains do all the buying and time do all the passing. If you are wise and patient, in a few years you would have built a pipeline of rookie cards, some of which may be valuable, for years to come for maybe a few hundred dollars. You know why I love America, President Trump and the Republican pro-business/pro-human rights/pro-freedom/pro-America first/pro-freedom of speech party sponsored candidate like Texas’ future senator Ken Paxton? I couldn’t do anything like this anywhere else in the world without being harassed, questioned, targeted, negatively surprised and probably may experience much worse things than that. 

Did you know the Giant Lizard owe Americans and the Western world trillions of dollars in unpaid national debt. You heard that tight trillions and accumulating rapidly. These are debts from the Giant Lizard’s governments issued to Americans and the West have still not been paid. In the meantime, they use complicated illegal VIE scam ADR listings to raise trillions on Wall Street to conduct Argentinian fake Hispanic style underclass financial scams. Did you also know the Giant Lizard got trillions of worth in gold and silver from the West to build their first everything including schools, railroad and institutions for Giant Lizards including a humongous amount of Americans fighting wars to liberate the Giant Lizards. America and the West also prevented the Giant Lizards from being completely subjected and nuked. Not only that, all of the Giant Lizard’s educated people got their education from American led West. America is the kindest entity in the history of the world yet the Giant Lizard is a cold blooded Lost Tribes like reptiles who aims to destroy human civilization including the release of viruses that killed American and Western mothers, fathers, grandmother and grandfathers while they locked their own Lizards into the basement for slave production so they can profit from American and the West’s misery. 

Did you know Giant Lizard sympathizers bought much of Coronavirus Pandemic supplies and sent them to the Giant Lizards and to kill more Americans and West aligned people while they aggressive mock the West for not having enough supplies. I’m sorry, whatever you think about President Trump, you clearly never lived or dealt with the Giant Lizard and do not know what you are talking about. America and the Western world can no longer sit idly by while the Giant Lizard commit economic and political espionage that attempts to destroy the fabric of Americas. Every time these kind of scandals broke, the local area this happens at their economy including the local real estate market decline significantly. The Giant Lizard also implemented worldwide police hunt of Westerners and dissident rich people who are frequently kidnapped or honey trapped, intercepted in third countries, falsely accuse them of crimes they never committed, either lock up them in mental institutions, the prison or organ harvesting centers so the Honey Bear and Giant Lizard elites can live up to 150 years old or more. The Giant Lizard is openly helping the Arctic Bear, Sow the III and the Feline with an assist from supposed American ally the Tropical Fungus Feet city-state.

The Giant Lizard kidnap/imprison/Health Project 981 harvest the organs of Americans who own them, Coronavirus Pandemic Fentanyl SARS reparation fund and Nanjing Incident “Massacre” is a pure defamatory fabrication.

The Fungus Feet city-state houses much of Giant Lizard’s illegal rings including honey trap training facilities where prostitutes are selected since birth are taught how to extract value from their targets, financial center of Giant Lizard’s scams, the most important center for chip smuggling where possibly the relatives of the heads of its sovereign funds and possibly its top government officials act as fronts in certain Alpha + cities nearby and much more. In fact, most of these crimes are committed with specific instructions from the Giant Lizard to its social media and e-commerce companies to evade international sanctions. They have now expanded their network to Japan, Korea, Taiwan as well as G-20 and near G-20 third world European countries as well as certain US states. The United States through the bravery of true American patriots reported such crimes to the American government and finally forced the “No Senator, I’m …….” people to investigate these people including sending them KYC brochures which is almost as better as doing nothing. There are real American traitors who sell the country out like the Lost Tribe people to sell one extra potato chip. 

Slippery slope has become the norm where America look the other way listing likely potentially sanctioned Giant Lizard entities as the sole core something something partner in Giant Lizard. Some unpatriotic greedy Americans also help facilitate ADR scams knowing they are VIE entities and are illegal in Giant Lizard without prominently disclose the risks via media campaigns. Without an exception, every Giant Lizard company is committing crimes and certain international corporate filing registration companies may be accessories to this. Everyone who has a conscience knows the Coronavirus Pandemic came from the Giant Lizard Honey Bear’s lavatory a**h**e to kill Americans and the West aligned people and nations. Probably 5% of the world’s population which is about hundreds of millions of people including likely millions of Americans died due to the virus released by the Giant Lizard. People’s lives still are and will likely be for decades. Not only did the Giant Lizard not pay for its crimes, it made trillions from exporting the very thing that would save people from the virus it released to the West such as ventilators, masks, gloves, sanitary sprays and more. 

The Giant Lizard is cold blooded just like the two-faced Tropical Fungus Feet like organisms that covertly attempt to destroy America then may likely publicly cane, imprison or publicly muzzle through possibly threatening refutation Americans and other peace loving people if they voice opposition to the monarch…I mean their government. America’s tariffs are clearly working and much of that tariffs despite the unpatriotic waning from Talarico’s Donkey party that will likely be stomped by Paxton’s Elephant are concessions from Giant Lizard companies who agreed to pay a large percentage of that tariff via price discounts are now going right back to patriot Americans’ pockets via President Trump policies in a major blow to the potentially treasonous acts by a portion of the nine old people. The Giant Lizard is very hypocritical in addition to being evil and greedy Lost Tribes people like. They do not allow their Lizards to use the VPN to learn about its evils but they close their eyes on their Lizards using slave labor and sweatshops to ship products to the West using VPN. Traitorous American and Western companies and organisms who acts as facilitators for Giant Lizard products’ importation, marketing and distribution of Giant Lizard’s products and ills including coronavirus pandemic, SARS, fentanyl epidemic must be made known to the general public. Every year the Giant Lizard harvest an enormous amount of human organs mostly for the consumption, transplanting or sales/gifting. The Giant Lizard elites are obsessed with living to 150 years old and they believe establishing a project like 981 will help them achieve this stated goal for their elites through harvesting organs from their organs and those who oppose them like Americans and other Western aligned people. 

One of the Giant Lizard’s favorite allies is the Little Bearded One hence they dedicated the name of a whole national project after them. Now the Little Bearded One is in major economic turmoil due to this and will likely take the European Union with it. The amount of naivety in the West is ridiculously funny and sad at the same time. And finally Nanjing Massacre, Rape of Nanjing and Nanjing Incident is most likely may be a totally fabrication meant to defame the Sun people. Many Giant Lizards may have written the Nanjing Incident is a complete fabrication but the Lost Tribe led people refuse to let patriotic Americans and Westerners to debunk the lies. Historically speaking, the Giant Lizards always lies including claiming the Sun people were pirates but in reality almost all pirates in the area were Giant Lizards or Plastic Surgery Manikins themselves robbing each other. Back then, The Sow I, II, III family weren’t even born yet. Giant Lizards always exaggerate thing like claiming the Middle-east Warring Monkeys had 200k soldiers and the Giant Lizards only had 10k in a certain battle held in the mid 700 AD when historians say the Warring Monkeys had 30k and the Giant Lizards also had 30k plus 20k mercenary Thanksgiving Bird relatives who all defected to Warring Monkeys side later on for some reason, likely due to malfeasance forced labor conditions or possibly 007/985. Surprisingly, after this battle was declared total decapitation and surrounded of the Giant Lizards’ army, Giant Lizard would never enter such a conflict again with the Warring Monkeys. The honorable and defamed Sun people must rearm and protect its blood brothers and sisters on Taiwan and the Philippines. Taiwan must be empowered with genetics altering AI powered Hydrogen Bombs for the enjoyment of the Giant Lizard, the Tropical Fungus Feet city-state “Senator, I’m…..” organisms and their authoritarian lackeys. 

I love Halloween October because it’s the only time in the year where almost all of the world’s major sports are playing at the same time. This is also the best time to transact sports cards. Like crypto currently have no wash sale rule, sports card market is not sophisticated enough at the moment to price in the Halloween October premium. You remember seeing those trick-or-treat cards in big box stores and you use to ignore them? I wouldn’t do that anymore if I were you. Halloween is fast becoming one of the most important holidays in the world and the increase in commercial value of this holiday is off the charts. I would rather overlook the Christmas holiday card editions than the Halloween edition. Christmas is extremely important but the reality is people’s lifestyle have changed including family values or even having a family in the first place which is more evident than ever in demographics data and birth rates. 

Halloween is a fun, hip, commitment free holiday everybody seems to enjoys. Many of last year’s NFL sets were on sale. You could actually get Wemby rookie inserts from an early edition of a similar product from Panini. Sure, Panini lost their NFL and NBA official licenses but the sealed NFL products are still dirt cheap at around $15 on sale for nearly 200 cards with decent chances to pull a low numbered card. I think Wemby, Jalen Brunson and everyone else not the big five on the Sixers will all have to take the backseat in terms of their rookie and chase cards valuation. I think it will be four to five years before this iteration of the Sixers will no longer be dominant news wise. By then Wemby will be around 28 which in NBA year means he will most likely not reach GOATesque. Because Halloween is part of the Q4 holiday season, Pokemon and other TCG cards will also be greatly impacted price wise. I must admit I transacted 90% of my Jordan chase cards already. It’s time to liquidate the remaining of my thousands of Michael Jordan inserts and other chase cards.

Halloween cards are hot, Nike/Jordan shoes aren’t as much, late October is the best time for all sports/collectible cards transactions and major Michael Jordan chase cards sell-off in motion. 

I saw the prices on many of these cards like 1995 Metal Nuts and Bolts grow from a dollar or two a few years ago to nearly $100 per card recently. Though I never saw the $100 price range when I held these cards because I got rid of it at the current price a while back. The key is not getting the highest price but rather getting the best holistic value which includes calculations on free cash flow and non-money factors like enjoying having the cards around. Unfortunately I never had affection for Mr. Jordan nor have I ever wanted to be like him. Last time we calculated the G-Worth of LeBron vs. Jordan card valuation. Much of LeBron’s flagship rookie card value is currently only a fraction worth of Jordan’s. I believe LeBron’s GOAT probably has increased significantly since joining the Sixers which in this zero-sum game where there can only be one true GOAT in the sport, Jordan’s chase cards will likely fall. Jordan may also have chosen the wrong time to pick a fight with a major white people’s cultural institution aka NASCAR. 

Jordan Brand and Nike shoes have experienced unprecedented declines which also means Jordan may not be doing as well financially as he was before. From history, this type of events usually don’t yield positive results for the athlete in question’s chase cards. Why did Pete Rose sign so many autographs? I will let you answer that one. The bottomline is a huge storm is probably coming for GOAT chase cards which will likely depress their chase cards prices. I personally would not buy GOAT or legends cards at this moment. Instead I spent the past half a year transacting away the best GOAT and legend cards in my collection and then proceeded to build my pipe line of bulk rookie cards and cheap chase including 1/1 RPA cards of new players most of these cards are only a few dollars. People act like they know what they are doing investment wise with collectible cards that they forgot their initial intent. They chase all the big grades cards and no longer care about the cards not worth grading due to transaction costs. They also forgot many expensive cards were dirty cheap at some point. You don’t need to no further than the USAACCCI index’s nearly 50% growth since July 2026. 

It’s kind of funny zero now got money

Then comes the honey bear and donkeys

I bet the world Paxton gonna win Congress

If you ain’t Maxey you never Ben very Ricey 

The difference you Poly wonder no Kalshi

Ignoring sentiments you irrational like a heshe

Alter Texan’s shot castle law you avoid not

Messing yall street better find alternative route

The world’s changing Giant Lizard is collapsing

Elephant in room rising Arctic Bear shivering

No caps capping on-off the field no moaning

Captaining the world F-35 flying above flexing

Midterm is coming Republicans are winning

Doom and gloom was mirage top of the ceiling 

Santa Rally I’m buying chips, AI & the dressing

Halloween need expanding economic trending

Jobs are humming and the growth are coming

The American dream is more real than ever

Let’s celebrate the fall of the authoritarians

All thanks to President Trump and R Party

White men are getting grittier and grittier while technology has softened the grittiness of the previous dominant 13% demographic group. White people can no longer sit idle while they see their ancestors’ rules and establishments targeted for dismantlement one by one. This is why Paxton and Abbott will win in Texas and this is why the white men will dominant in professional sports. America’s number one enemy, the Giant Lizard allied groups fear America’s dominance yet they are able to exploit America’s kindness and demographic value via propaganda campaigns that influence the highly uneducated people of certain demographic groups. While millions of Americans and Western allies people died of murderous acts committed by the Giant Lizard via Coronavirus Pandemic, Fentanyl, social media ills, poisoning Western societies with their moral-less acts, they continue to enslave their own Lizards and people who object to their rule in the Northern and in the Western sections. 

Many fair-skinned, Aryan-like majestic 6-footer Northern people enslaved by the Giant Lizard, a Lizard species with their power base anchor babied from the south, object to Giant Lizard’s genocidal brutality toward the Tibetan, the Hmong, the East Turkistani and many other enslaved ethnic groups. The White superteams vs 13% and other demographic group superteams games in all arenas would be a wonderful rendition to spur American patriotism and enthusiasm from disgruntled, disenfranchised and disenchanted white people who are sick and tired of being the minority in their own country, a country and a world their ancestors created in their own images. Every Texan and every person in the world who loves democracy, human rights, freedom to be themselves, a strong economy and everything that’s good about the world should get the word out for Texans who love all of the above to vote for Republicans Ken Paxton.

How to cash in on the revenge of white men’s regression to the mean peak Senator Ken Paxton masculinity, their dominant return in elite professional sports versus Sixers LeBron, Maxey, Brown and Dallas Texas Y’all Street versus Los Angeles California Hollywood Conservative Pivot.

Can you imagine a world of 100 plus genders, gender neutral restrooms, taxes up to the ying-yang, the government taking away firearms and the Giant Lizard roaming free with honey traps, Giant Lizard operated secret forced slave labor camps/police stations, Manchurian candidate government officials that so all the Giant Lizard’s evil biddings, economic coercion all of which are commonplace in California. I put Maxey into the USAACCCI for a reason. He is extremely underrated for his bucket getting and dishing abilities. As much as I believe Maxey will succeed, the truth is the white men’s premium in collectible chase cards will increase significantly in the coming years. The Europeans are considered half white men to many due to their lack of wealth and provincial up brings. However, now there are real white American men succeeding in sports not just as the cerebral QB, TE or baseball players but also succeeding in non-traditional white roles such as blue collar running backs, receivers, linebackers and other roles that are traditionally seen as too tough for the baby boomer white male. From a G-Word ratio standpoint, I think GOATesque white player’s chase cards are extremely undervalued. I believe they are at least 90% their 1960s and 1970s peak. 

I hypothesize within the course of a decade or so white GOATesque player’s chase cards including their rookie cards will experience an exponential resurgence. I think the GOAT premium for non-white men will still be there, it’s just that the premium for white men in absolute aggregate dollars will increase as they replace the 13% and other demographic groups engaging in survivorship bias gambles with their lives. This will be a huge win for America and for society as the 13% and other demographic groups stay out of the judicial system, save tax payers $100k per person per year and fulfill many of the blue collar short fall the US is experiencing instead of giving those jobs to the risky undocumented and Giant Lizard potential infiltration targeted groups. The US should use the 13% and other groups for international competitions as boogeyman types to let the Giant Lizard know they are unworthy of playing against morally values white Americans of true ancestral and bloodline loyalty to the country, the West and the culture. Everyone else are just perpetual visitors who knows what’s good for them therefore still want to be close to the white men. California is so infiltrated right now that Giant Lizard aligned spies are everywhere where they can buy up land, influence political campaigns and promote pro anti-human agendas. Look at the struggles of Hollywood, even the OG wokester is going conservative. I expect California to turn red or split up before Texas turn blue.

I personally think there are two major market crashes coming: Bitcoin and those who are betting on Paxton to lose and Talarico to win the Senate. Abbott won’t endorse Paxton outright but does lots of quasi-grey area half-screens to help Paxton win like hosting get out of the vote rallies just a day before Paxton in the same spot to warm-up the crowd for him overtly surreptitiously. If you believe that’s not an endorsement then you probably also believe Bitcoin will hit a million before it hit $10k. A lot of these election analysis hinges on what suburban Texas women do which many of these pundits believe will vote for Talarico. That’s probably one of their biggest misunderstanding about how this race turnout. Traditionally, suburban women have been a“highly fluid” voter base. People talk about reproductive health especially in conservative states but fail to emphasis this group’s dislike for 100 different gender classifications, gender neutral restrooms and let’s not forget men playing in women’s sports. 

If that wasn’t enough, people who never understood how relationships work forget it’s never the I love you honey that make a long-term relationship work, it’s honey, we don’t have enough money to pay for xyz sob resolution which usually require a strong economy and good paying jobs to resolve. Democrats may not be stupid, but it’s the economy stupid. People want to live free and good lives, a good economy is essential to modern day happiness. Speaking of happiness, I believe the US could benefit greatly by implementing tax holidays on 401(k) withdrawals. To stimulate the economy, this is precisely what is needed. People don’t want to wait until you no longer have the energy to enjoy life before they can take money out of their accounts. It is absolutely true investing in the current US economy is an excellent idea and historically speaking, such investments in US equity markets usually worked out extremely well for investors in the long term.

Which one happens first: Bitcoin drop below $10K, Texas turn blue or a mid-life-tax-free 401(k) withdrawal economic stimulus.

Of course there must be rules and regulations regarding such a holiday to protect both the holder of the retirement account and the economy. I do think this scheme if it becomes legalized will reduce many ills in this society including crime as many criminal events happen when people are tired and disgruntled with their lives and all it takes is a bad mood or a momentary lapse in judgment. The other thing that’s good about this is reducing windfall inheritances. When such withdrawals can be anticipated, more thoughts and process will be put into place when spending such funds reducing impulsive, stupid and hedonistic squandering which typically have a diminishing marginal utility for all involved including society. I believe Bitcoin has lost much of its practical application advantages due to the increase use of other digital payment methods and that its blockchain feature may have been innovative, it has now been implemented by many other applications taking away much of its advantages. 

I think Bitcoin prices will eventually self-correct and go back to much lower levels especially when legislations come knocking. Contrary to popular belief, I believe regulations will effectively limit much of Bitcoin’s speculatively functionalities especially when nations start to heavily push for their own digital currencies which will likely be accompanied with alliance networks that allow more ease of transaction among other sovereign backed digital currencies. Texas likely won’t turn significantly blue any time within the next three decades due to Texas’ core moral values and pro business Republicans values translating into real economic development and growth in the state. One look at California Texans don’t want to look again. I believe the 401(k) withdrawal tax holidays will likely not happen any time soon though I believe conversations about this could be happening some time in the near future.

The United States Alternative Assets Collectible Cards Composite Index (USAACCCI) update for October 21, 2026.

This is a growth-oriented index therefore most of the fund in this index will go towards acquiring cards that have high foreseeable upsides. I have reduced my Bronny James cards position as I believe his cards have peaked somewhat since surviving being cut. I said this before and I will say this again, his cards’ appreciation value depends mostly on LeBron’s legacy therefore Bronny’s cards value are basically a derivative of the value of LeBron’s cards. Yes, there is also the novelty card factor as well. Bronny’s cards are a good long-term play hence I have reduced my position in his cards to explore short to medium term value plays. This index is still relatively small and needs scale before it can fully diversify.

I admit, President Trump’s popularity has dropped significantly. I believe Paxton and Abbott’s victories in Texas victories are existential necessities for the Republican party and under the circumstances, they are the best candidates for Texas as a whole and for those particular races. Abbott will most likely do very well whereas Paxton will likely win by a paper thin margin. Frankly speaking, if people from outside of Texas think Texans will turn Democratic now, they are extremely delusional. Texas is turning more and more corporate so you won’t hear the loudest Republicans afraid being misinterpreted as racist remarks. If you were driven in Texas before, take a look at the ratio of big trucks and SUVs versus small cars. 

Many small car owners also vote Republican too. Ken Paxton is the unlikely and unsung hero in this entire Midterm election because he single handily diverted most of the Democrat’s attention to Texas, a state that will unlikely turn majority blue anytime soon while the Democrats pulled out resources from other key races. The Republicans and the press in general should look closer into this race to understand the current dynamics of the United States. Texas is constructing data centers, semiconductor chip fabs/manufacturing factories, rare earth mines and processing centers and much more. This state is moving so fast precisely because of business friendly policies that both Paxton and Abbott espouses. Northern Texas may be liberal, don’t be fooled though, they love money too perhaps even more. Texans will take this race very personally as to them this is an encroachment on their way of life and will be extremely motivated to defend Texas. Expect the kind of turnout that only happens when people believe they are fighting for their lives. I know this one is pretty much set when I see a large number of East Asian people at the polls. Not trying to make light of this or being funny, but I have a feeling what party they will vote for.

Republicans secure Senate and the House to win Congress in a surprising Midterms victory.

Texas is not growing because of threats regarding implementation of state taxes by potentially certain candidates or letting men play women’s sports, Texas is growing because it is the complete opposite of California and many people seem to like it that way. However, what we are talking about here is small-ball politics. There are definitely benefits to being the party holding most of the power via incumbency. The greatest advantage the Republicans have in the Senate race is the Democrats spent too much of their time and resources on Texas, a true fool’s gold. The second advantage the Republicans have is their 53-47 advantage plus the deciding vote from the VP. The third is Democratic senators are much more likely to vote with Republicans than vice Versa. 

Finally, President Trump’s $5,000 incentives absorb at least a small percentage of Democrats’ hippy giving away or counting other people’s money strategy.  I think this is a classic Charmander versus Onix battle that came down to a single, unnoticed string of silk from Metapod that attached to Onix which slowed down Onix by millisecond causing it being knocked out. This is unprecedented territory with a president’s popularity this low but still being able to retain Congress. This battle will literally come down to a very small deviation somewhere in the pundits’ prediction models. The Democrats had a golden opportunity but really blew it by pulling resources from other races and putting much of the focus on Texas. Texas, as long as it is in a rivalry with California, Texans aren’t going to look too kind upon the Democrats on statewide races. It’s too late for the Democrats to right this ship now, but it might be a lesson to be learned for the future. The Republicans likely will hold on to the House with ease.

Listen, Paxton will win and the Republicans won’t let up the near half billion dollars in campaign spend to ensure he wins. Whatever you think about him as a politician or person, that’s not what will resonate with the Republicans and Texans. If you think it’s just the money and Super PACs you are beyond wrong. Winning in Texas represents the existential legitimacy rights the Republicans needed to function as a party period. That half billion is relatively poultry compared with all the heavy hitters showing up for him from every single demographic group within the Republican sphere of influence including possible known democrats who probably stay silent but secretly support him to win. Texans don’t want their land to be Californified and they will defend their rights to do so. Texas is on pace to exceed California in GDP and population in a few decades. 

Texans are afraid that their land will be populated with California style undocumented people, Skid Row homeless and crackheads everywhere, copious amount of regulations that will kill progress in the state and worst of them all, gun regulations and implementation of state-wide income and capital gain taxes. The old A-S people are heavily favoring early voting. The Tejanos and a large number of the transplants mostly from California also lean Republican. Surprisingly, Many transplants who moved to Texas are considered right wing people in their liberal states. When you get wealthy and don’t want the lazy get the fruits of your labor for free, you probably would vote Republican too. Yes, Paxton is not very popular in Texas, however, President Trump is and his sway means a lot in Texas especially when he wins the state by the largest margin of any presidential candidate in two decades. I think at crunch time the state’s political elites will warm up to Paxton and support him. I also believe the down-ballot impact is greatly exaggerated mostly due to his political enemies’ hatred toward him.

This is what I posted previously regarding this topic: 

“From a GOP standpoint, if they want to keep their current iteration of Post-Reconstruction ideology, they are going to defend that Texas seat with all of its might. That’s exactly what they probably want to do but likely will not need to do. Without even knowing anything about these two, Paxton subliminally is a greater last name than Talarico in Texas regardless of how Talarico got that last name. In one shape or another, either Cornyn shadow endorse Paxton or Cornyn voters will follow ideology and move to Paxton line anyway. For Texans, this is about “don’t California my Texas,” “NIMBY,” and state taxes. Voting for anyone in these elections is already a morally undignified event that people have to hold their nose in doing so, voting for Paxton is just a minor inconvenience like scratching an itch on the nose while holding their breath once during the entire voting experience. 

On the other hand, “don’t California my Texas” but “do bring us all the jobs and Fortune 500s to Y’all Street” is more important. This whole thing is more like John “Karl Malone” Paxton featuring Cruz-Trump hold my brisket tenderism while they become an invisible MAGA voter who never admit they are MAGA or will vote in surveys or claims they have African American friends in diverse social settings but wakes up early to vote MAGA anyway. When Ted Cruz and Trump both heavily campaign for someone in Texas, you know Nueva Beto never had a chance. All the people who claims to potentially vote for Mr. T either all live in Austin, California or never driven on a Texas road before. You just need to drive on a Texas road to understand how this thing will philosophically end. 

Republicans might not be in the best shape for midterms but they are likely not going to do so bad either. I think they are going to pour a lot of resources into the Texas and the base will be galvanized knowing the democrats are trying to California Texas with a potential “Californian Candidate.”The Democrats have to flip a lot of seats to gain control of Senate. If the GOP heavily defend their Texas positions, the Democrats efforts will fail. The House might be a different story but they are likely Republicans will probably edge it out. There are a lot of Caucasian Democrats who are natural Republicans. The hyper liberalism is over in an intense world with intense competition and real problems. He/she and which of the 96 genders use which bathroom is the least of the problems. Tough on the Giant Lizard people is a Republican trademark which no one will ever accuse the Democrats of having the balls to take on. If the Republicans continue and expand on this plus incremental movement on true progressive taxes and pro business/manufacturing import substitution industrial policies on all sectors including low, mid and high tech industries. California Liberalism is unsustainable in this era, if the Democrats continue to bankroll this ideology when the general mood and bank won’t support it, they will likely see themselves increasingly getting pushed out of the history books. They need to reinvent themselves like they changed their persona from a racist bigot uncle to the flamboyant hippie years ago.”

One of the biggest reasons why Ocekay was framed and put into the mental hospital is because Ocekay’s exposure to the international chips, data center and AI smuggling ring. A few weeks before Ocekay was framed, Ocekay received a call from the state securities apparatus inquiring about Ocekay’s knowledge of the international smuggling ring and its connections to the Tropical Fungus Feet city-state. That particular city-state frequently display a sanctimonious front to the West yet secretly engages in a silent contest with the West through its main proxy. Matter of fact, the biggest perpetuators of this are frequently the white glove relatives of high ranking members of state-sponsored agencies and entities. Ocekay discovered most of the investigations reported by major international media center around unimportant small potatoes. None of the major players were investigated at all. 

Ocekay suddenly had an epiphany that perhaps the people who are scapegoated for the island events are the fronts for powerful people who made them sign proxy agreements too. Ocekay also recalls a phone conversation with someone who tried to sell the contact information of everyone in the West to certain adversaries for millions including Ocekay’s own information. Ocekay suggested to the intelligence officer that it would be very interesting to visit and livestream the massive APT centers in a certain Alpha city to which the officer became enraged asking Ocekay to butt out of their business. In Ocekay’s mind, Ocekay believes these low level billionaire and trillionaire elites are just fronts for the Lost tribe gazillionaire with assumed names. Many of these rich fronts from certain technology sectors based in a certain bay literally and literally speaking could be in beds with those whom they share the same last names with. Many of these honey trappers and hackers are so uncivilized and unprofessional they don’t even know how to keep secrets. 

For all Ocekay knows, the Tropical Fungus Feet city-state that hosts possibly hundreds of thousands of registered companies from a certain country via a certain well-known registration company   very well could have locked up these people in a mental institution as well and they could be crying the “same cry” as well. Operating on the“you ain’t getting nothin’ free from may” principle, Ocekay told the intelligence agency FU in a cordial conveyance. After the threats and other blah blah blahs Ocekay got bored hearing over the years, they softened up and started praising Ocekay that’s when Ocekay hanged up the phone and blocked the number. Ocekay hate talking to unworthy people not providing reciprocal holistic value in all situations. Ocekay had interactions with tens of thousands of people related to the ring and came up with one conclusion.

Many of the perpetuators are almost exclusively blood-related to the country that is being sanctioned with all kinds of semiconductor and chip bans or are from the same continent with lost tribes regional tilt. Ocekay also realized sanction busting and committing international crimes against humanity is extremely prevalent in the major Alpha and Beta cities of a particular America’s number one enemy country. Many such crimes are literally committed by companies that are increasing expanding their businesses to America and the West, literally right under the noises of the sanction issuers. Ocekay also realized America must diversify away from relying on perpetual foreigners and must control their own destiny by empowering culturally indigenous American people. Ocekay also realized the news papers seem to not be very investigative at all even though they might have received billions of pages of documents detailing the entire scam from a certain insightful anonymous whistleblower. But then Ocekay realized, money makes everything go away, it is even able to complete disassociate peanut better from peanut with a simple “Senator, I’m S……..n” or better yet, “the glove doesn’t fit my hands whether I did some magic tricks here or not, acquit me now.”

The Legend of Ocekay novel series is based on a true, original story written by The Permanent Contrarian. The Legend of Ocekay novel series will be updated weekly on this site until the conclusion of the second part of the multi-part series.

Every day is a gamble on something whether you know it or not. The distinction between a hobby and an obsession in people’s minds appears to be the degree of negative impact on the protagonist and adjacent people and institutions. If you are going to do something revolutionary, do it like no one ever done it, don’t settle for mediocrity. The moral issues with institutionalized gambling are too many to mention. The biggest issue for me with gambling is the transactional costs and the garbage organisms that come with it. How can you still feel sinful but don’t need to involve Vegas and certain Vegas related “enterprises?” DIY. Don’t cold turkey it might hurt you mentally that cause a chain reaction. Many bad things happen because of a bad mood. Retail pack/box openings are similar in effect to slot machine plays, lottery, Bingo and raffles. They are low cost entry plays but can consistently yield some decent payouts. The hobby boxes are like low minimum card tables with higher risk and reward. Then there are the sports gambling prop bets, high minimum VIP tables and more which are equivalent to the cards in suitcases openings to a degree. 

Then there are biggest difference between legalized gambling and sports cards collecting are the floor, the ceiling and the liquidity. When you lose a bet you lose permanently with almost no upside unless you care about the almost nothing low level thresholded tax benefits from offsetting gambling winnings. When you lose money in a pack opening, you receive a paper loss but that paper loss is frequently supported with a resistance due to market mechanisms. The market is not going to charge something outrageously high or low without an underlying reason which is usually supported by some kind of intrinsic value for that good aka a realistic resell value due to demand for that good or service. Because it’s a paper loss, there is also the possibility of even more loss due to market pricing or market driven gains. Sport card packs frequently have intrinsic value mechanisms in terms of insertions with various states or unstated odds. The other difference between gambling and pack openings or buying singles is the analytical piece. It is much easier to be wrong based on analytics on short-term or one time predictions than it is on trend analysis over a set period of durable time.

How to passive gamble on sports using sports cards and FU collectible cards reserve.

Sports cards as a substitute for betting in general or sports betting can provide the time advantage needed to win on superior analytical skills which over a long period of time will yield results and less susceptible to randomized statistical errors. It’s kind of like March Madness versus NBA finals. The best teams on paper frequently don’t win March Madness due to its single-game matchups whereas NBA Finals in a best out of four games frequently feature the best statically superior team winning the title each year. If you want to be sinful and rebellious, spending a lot of money on sports cards will get you the same amount of street cred as gambling or other similar levels of vices nowadays. The difference is you are a smart gambler. You rarely hear people going bankrupt over sports cards whereas gambling frequently negatively change people’s lives. The other difference is sports cards’ value can be extremely volatile which can be extremely good news or bad news depending your position in the game. If you are suffering from a large paper loss, the wild swings could favor you at some point like a broken clock. Very large purchases on sports cards are rarely purchased on credit of any kind. Few banking institutions will loan you a large sum of money to open packs if they don’t politely hold off on their laughter first. 

My current collectible cards FU reserve consist of WOTC holographic and 1st edition English and Japanese Pokemon cards, 1950s superstar baseball cards, a large sum of Ben Rice RPAs most of which I bought as singles or pulled from packs/boxes one or two year(s) ago for almost nothing, a few hundred Bonds rookie cards I bought for a dollar each and LeBron James chase cards I pulled from packs costing a couple dollars each in the 2010s. Of course I also pulled big Jordan, Kobe, Brady, Ohtani and other cards, most of which I transacted to finance my rookie cards pipeline that is still going strong with card byproducts used to finance my charitable givings and my career advancements with no transaction fees what so ever. What started out as a joke that I treated collectibles like assets became a reality years later now everyone is trying to do the same with various degrees of success. First movers and third wave all have their own advantages, what you don’t want to do is be that middle of the pack person. If you watched prices is right or any other similar shows you know the lowest and the highest guesses representing the two extremes typically have a higher probability of winning. The only problem is being able to make the lowest guess and the highest guess and that my friend takes skills and luck which is basically gambling. 

People usually start out by hating on Boomers which is completely understandable when they are filling the shoes of the Greatest Generation who got their badge of honor from depressions, wars and grit. There are about 60 plus million Boomers in their mid sixties to early 80s in the US making up about 20% of the population. Currently there are about 20 million Boomers still working many of whom are disproportionally empowered with institutional authority. They also control about $100 trillion in wealth which is about 52% of the total US household wealth. Without griping about them or talk about their yellow fevers leading to willy smart nilly infliltration of America, beta people traits nor their lower in testosterones, we can look at this situation objectively in an equatable and calibrated way.  The first and most reasonable thing to ask of course is what happens to their wealth once these old bas…I mean demographic groups slowly passes away? According to surveys, these people want to save money in some kind of hell bank or spend those wealth while they are alive leaving nothing significant to their scions. Much of these transfers already happened years ago via yellow fever fetishes coordinated by catfishing Giant Lizard females where money and technology get transferred to Giant Lizard factories and companies overseas. The sad part about all of this is they are leaving nothing but debts to their kids while they filled their submissive fetishes on slave lizards they can control versus women of their own kind who they can not due to losing testosterones genetically. 

To their credit, they did try to save the environment with hippyism but that didn’t last long though and many of the environmental destruction did happen during the industrialization which they clearly had nothing to do with because they contributed heavily to the deindustrialization of the Western world hence neutered the Western world’s ability to pollute to allow others to do so while also handling over the now useless manufacturing technologies that aren’t needed due to not producing anything anymore while letting the cheap and slave made goods in. The real danger here are the foreign scammers in disguises of legitimate caretakers trick the Boomers into giving their wealth to their anchor babies. There may be schemes in the future where rabbit birth countries will be put on IMF stipulations on having less Lizards like purportedly happened in the past. The US may need to consider the Lizard neuter and spade policies too in addition to sanctions and deportations. Believe it or not, America manufacturing and industrial policies are coming back. To no one’s surprise, it’s good for America, the greatest country in the history of the universe and beyond, and the world with a strong and happier America that trickle down scraps to the unworthy. The silver lining is at least a lot of those money will go to charity and going to be used to pay taxes. All hate aside, much of the greatest wealth gains actually happened during the age of technology which had a lot to do with the Soviet Union being defeated even if it was the Greatest Generation that made the most contributions in that regard.

What happens when Baby Boomers die off and Gen XYZ Millennials take over, made in America import substitution and the failure of the One Belt, One Road even with 50 cent Party army of internet bots.

Anyway, the greatest core competency lies in its stable institutions. Most of the money are still in the US financial markets and the war chest of blue chip, endowment pledges of elite universities and in private shares of ambitious young and technological advanced companies. As more American companies nearshore and then significantly restore, they are going to create jobs for Americans in an age of AI, robots and super efficiency in material science making everything cheaper and scalable. Simply put it, American companies will be able to afford American wages for Americans living an American standard of living livelihood. Reputation is very important. America’s reputation plus the Made in America movement will ensure Americans can win people’s hearts and minds. A lot of lay people don’t realize what trust in someone means. It means you trust a person or an institution to reliability deliver something of value to you based on your needs and provide after delivery services like repair or a peace of mind. That’s where American human beings differ from Giant Lizard animals that run on the law of the jungle with unpredictable patterns that indicate in every way the Honey Bear and the Lizard doesn’t understand human civility, nor speak English human language, the ultimate barometer of displayed human intelligence (DHI). America is the center of the universe with every country that is country paying tribute to its United Nations. Anyone who tells you other can move to Canada and please make sure to check up on them to ensure they actually move to Canada, make sure their lies get exposed in your mind when they didn’t move to Canada and tell them to move their Baby Boomer hippy influenced fairweather friends to move over there too. There is zero doubt in my mind America must import substitute everything even if some get shelved as brand moots like some companies and weaponry manufacturers do. 

I applaud President Trump for being the only US president of the last 50 years to stand up against true tyranny not by paying lip services and letting other people take the heat for it but actually realpolitikingly doing something about it. Why should anyone competent pay for the ACA or similar program cost of the unwilling and capable non-contributing members? Reshoring and performing targeted sanctions with a big gracious and complimentary smile and kind words to the Honey Bear and other such creatures while strongly compelling allies to up their games too are the smallest thing any US president in the last 50 years have ever done. A real dotard wouldn’t be able to do that without nurse-minders-VP/DEI or his son being involved in naked picture scandals. The sound of the tariff coffer being filled to the brims while Americans get a cut of that is the most ingenious thing any leader could do to the Giant Lizard and all with a big presidential genuine smile, none of that Giant Lizard 36 stratagems sneaky Sun people performance art ish. The side effect and aftermath of this is what is the most intriguing. Now American nationalism is in full swing against traitors, fence sitters, all kinds of hoppers and enemies everywhere be it domestic or foreign even against invasive aliens from outer space. The 50 cent Party army is everywhere especially online. What’s funny is in recent years they are no longer Giant Lizard Warrioring anymore. In a faltering economy where money is fast flowing out of the country, people lost almost all of their savings and few people have good paying jobs or even employment to go to, no one smiles on the street anymore. Anyone who does smile on the street are now seen as a crazy and up the possibility of being locked up in a mental ward. Under these conditions, even the state doesn’t have the kind of funding anymore to propagate their cause and even if they do, the efficiency goes way down when there is nothing positive to talk about. 

Dissing your enemy when you are in worse condition is not only hypothetical and easy to see through, but when their Lizards are so poor they can’t even afford a hot meal you think they care about the purported outside enemy that have lots of money and food or the one inside who is bringing them hell. They would be considered patriotic by most standards in this situation for not leading the enemies inside of their country to liberate them. The One Belt, One Road already flopped and is basically unsavable now. Army win and lose wars because of a country and its economies ability to produce goods and facilitate logistics. All the island chains looking after the Giant Lizard is still in place kind of like the situation the mystical Giant Lizards in the Neizha series faces where nominally they are guardians of the sea but in reality they are tied down by the sea. A huge container ship can carry over 20,000 of large containers whereas a train can carry a few hundred at the most with much higher costs. People will also talk about the Giant Lizard topography and its neighbors but they fail to consider the why? Much of the Giant’s landmass were never truly controlled by them from a historical standpoint hence huge difference in genotypes and topography. Much of the Giant Lizard’s Western side are almost uninhabitable due to extreme high altitude under normal conditions and much of its Northern frontier areas are either too cold or desertified despite its monoculture tree and shrub planning propaganda projects. The root cause is pollution and exhaustion of its underwater supplies. Hospitality with the sneaky Sun people and Damify to cut off downstream water flows will only create more resentment and spur more constructive reactions from its neighbors. If you are trying to sell lemonade to the entire neighborhood, it’s probably not a good idea to anger them all. On top of that, the neighborhood never liked them in the first place because they are the victims of their imperialism past even if propaganda says otherwise. 

In addition, the Persian Cat people have historically always been the middle people who tried to make all the big bucks by being the intermediary. The Thanksgiving bird with its Stans people including East Turkistan people, the Arctic Bear got their own thing with them via the CIS then there are the ASEAN and SAARC, the Commonwealth of Nations and many other special interests plus every pirate, rebel group, militant holy book groups, sectarian goodies and everything else in the mix. Even more beautifully, not only have they presented them a string of pearl for their special occasion in addition to other maritime gifts that was granted to the Giant Lizard in recent decades, they have shown the capability of hijacking the fifth grader PhD’s grand institutions like the SCO and Bricks with their own most populous nation self-interest proposals thanks to the 1962 war. When trust is lost, it will never be the same. The elephant in the room might not be a bull in a porcelain shop, it can do even more damage via power projection alone. Most of the goodwill built along the Silk Road were all gone because it was never an altruistic humanity project in the first place as it is already happening now. True wealth are not in those low occupant rate shinny new skyscrapers  with neon lights shinning at night, it lies in the standard of living people enough everyday. But if you really want to see those, America can do those as well, I know such places in the West that have the highest concentration of such skyscrapers even if they don’t have those tacky 99 cents lights on them. 

The number one sign is usually desperation. They reached out to you out of the blue and wanted to talk to you ASAP. If this is a multinational, it will most likely be a scenario where the recruiter ask you what day and time you are available to speak without sending you those scheduling links. In this scenario, the recruiter prioritize your time over theirs to make you feel respected. I do not tolerate any situation where a recruiter is more than a minute late for a schedule first phone call as this is a huge red flag at so many levels and usually just tell them straight up it’s not a good fit for me. I also developed a proprietary offer probability table of various scenarios occurring at the same time including factors such as interactions with various demographic groups at different levels of the hiring process based on candidate traits. This is what I call careemistry matching. By far the best way to tell if an organization is into you or not is how their first contact is initiated. If the first contact was by a person of mainstream, it usually means they are very serious. 

On the contrary, if it is not, it usually means they are giving authority to a person of low probability of empowerment to contact a half-*** interview as a stat pat. Any company that does business in America that doesn’t utilize a person of mainstream is probably not a well run organization to begin with, a hard lesson the people of the sun had to learn and now they mostly utilize people of mainstream in key positions and Americanize as much as possible. When the first contact is a not a person of mainstream, I won’t even waste any time with them other than the perfunctory superficial professionalism. Most people say that best time to find a job is when you have a job. That may be true, it is also exhausting to schedule those interviews outside of work. Hence make sure you AB test your resume to see which resume work and which one doesn’t so you don’t waste your time. Don’t take the first offer immediately if you have other offers in the pipeline. When a company really wants you, they will immediately invite you after the first call.

Signs the organization is desperate to hire you and signing slave employment contracts in Giant Lizard land.

When they real want you, the first call might be the hiring manager calling unless the company is real small and doesn’t even have a HR department. Find out what the job entails and the upper limit pay for that role and those responsibilities from research. I find unlimited vacations are full of bull as they won’t pay you accrued vacations in states that mandate a mandatory payout for applicable amounts when no vacation is actually accrued and most likely you won’t even have time to take the vacations. I also find companies that offer more vacation days in lieu of higher pay to be full of BS as again, you might not be able to take those vacation. You know what I do find real and practical? Companies that have a policy of 401k immediately or after 30 days plus immediate vesting of employer contributions. That’s how you know that company is for real. Most of the time paychecks are spent after paychecks are received, most people’s saving plans do much better when they get a 401k with employer contributions vested immediately plus the tax deferment benefits already on top. I ask to be paid well and I then see if the 401k is good. Usually when those two things are in place their other fringe benefits like health insurance and vacation days will be fairly decent at the very least. I also see the layout of the workplace and see if I get a table, work bench, an office or a cubical. I also want to kind of see if the boss has an important role in the organization and the boss’ office and its setup. As much as I work for an organization, everything is filtered through the boss. When a company really wants you, they ask you more softball questions like what do you do for fun and give you a tour of the company. 

In the thousands of interview interactions I have had, I notice if you have to be interview by your bosses boss or by team members it’s probably a place you don’t want to work at when you have other choices because they don’t have much faith in you. If they pay you less to be a manager than being a manager somewhere else for an equivalent situation, I would rather take a non-manager position that pays more than other non-manager positions. Being a manager decreases your AFRLing opportunities. Most people don’t realize why WAFRL is a bad idea. If you are truly good at what you do because you WAFRL, you would probably do much better running your own things than WAFRLing consistently. The issue with WAFRLing is the incremental reward above AFRLing is not worth the delta of running your own side hustle and eventually doing your own thing. Corporate usually don’t reward high performers with ownership pay because they think you are succeeding because of their platform which is kind of the same logic of how some championship teams try to lower the money paid to their superstars’ next contract. When working for others, think of it as a transactional affair where no one will remember much about what you did years later good or bad unless you become famous or infamous for something. The salary is cash flow in a culture that does value saving as much but adores consumerism and the savings really come from the 401k hence that is pretty important. 

In Giant Lizard land, their people are forced to sign indenture contracts of one to many years in length. If the company that you signed your rights away decided to give you a hard time for any reason including stealing your IP rights or prevent you from working for other companies, they can simply not release you from your contract by not issuing the release contract paperwork document even if your contract had expired and you decided not to renew. The release paperwork document is what every company Giant Lizard land requires and even those not based in Giant Lizard land may worry about the status of your free agency. There is no such thing as free will or at-will employment in Giant Lizard land. Companies in Giant Lizard land frequently cut the salary of their employees, work them to death, sexually harass them, give them some type of mental or physical beating or possibly maim, murder or disappear them into a mental institution or a secret prison. In what world do you think the employees would want to WAFRL in those conditions even with nationalistic propaganda regarding patriotism.

Most people in this hobby valuate their pack openings wrong. Unless you are a professional flipper, you most likely will lose your drawls speculating in the short-term eventually. If you look at the USAACCCI components, you will notice it only includes a few cards at significant quantities. When you are starting small, you don’t have the luxury of diversifying away systematic risks. What you need is an agile, scalable and sustainable collection of compatible assets within a portfolio that could appreciate significantly and frequently exponentially and mitigate downside risks. The biggest downside risks in this hobby is from high transactional costs of selling cards with disparate markets. Those big lots of random superstars and rookies are always hard to sell and frequently have little price stickiness synergy among them. It’s like selling condoms next to the banana. Sure they seem to have synergy but in actuality the market for those who practically desire that type of synergy at any given time is very small, it’s only huge when people are drunk. I would only give away cards to coworkers if they are very close to me in terms of workplace dynamics like your colleague in the same department or those who you work closely with. Do not randomly give cards out for free. 

This will cheapen your gift in the eyes of those who actually believe they kind of deserve getting the gift from you due to their merit and proximity to you in a professional setting. Give them only things that current value, do not think the long-term for them. Most of the time advancement in life and career are tactical maneuvers. I recommend giving people well-known legend cards that are already very collectible. New rookie cards don’t equivalent much value in people’s heads. I also recommend fixing up a huge bag or tote container of cards from different sports and TCG games. There kids or even themselves will most likely love the mystery box feeling plus the kids will learn by doing research on the cards which their parents will most likely highly appreciate. Just think about your own childhood. You probably don’t remember which aunt brought you a muffin once or twice but you certainly remember that one time you got a huge bag of toys that you like. Parents can live vicariously through their kids in that manner too and will certainly remember what you did for their kids. On the flip side, how much can you get from selling those kids and how much appreciation will you get by giving these cards away to random strangers or to a donation center? The appreciation and mutual impact are almost always exponentially more when giving these away to related party.

Here is how I would handle each type of cards pulled from packs:

1. Bulk: Use the bulk as a basis to create a large tote container. Bulk are basically common to non-common/non-GOATesque cards that are not high-end special insertions. Modern card sets have a lot of undesirable inserts that are practically worthless. I recommend to be more generous with pulling cards of star players bulk cards. Include a few GOATesque base cards. 
2. Rookie cards from recent draft class: Keep regardless of the price unless you believe some of the cards are outrageously and irrationally overpriced, in that case you could either sell or give away to related parties like your bosses’ kid via your boss.
3. Numbered cards: Keep these regardless. These cards even if there are a billion variation of similar cards are still technically limited production runs unless we are talking about those /10,000+ issuances in that case it’s an owner’s choice type of decision.
4. Autographs: Most people like autos of stars even if they don’t know them because they think it’s cool as a show and tell piece and could be worth something down the line. I think these are valuable but without knowing them issuance size like with numbered cards, it’s a bag of mysteries which some people do like. I think if you are going to give away something even via a mystery lot there probably has to be a card that people can chase or hope to find. Giving away autographs, when research is comprehensively done and worth is rationally determined, might not be a bad idea. 
5. RPAs, #’d autos and other high-end insertions: I would intentionally put a few of that sort of card into the pile with sleeves and top loaders. I wouldn’t put anything too crazy in but I’d probably put something between $30 to $200 into those.  

Card valuation is both an art and a science like finance itself. Being the greatest of anything is about being great at what you do and at the same time transcend beyond your professional greatness into the lives of the everyday person. Some players may be good at what they do but they are not transcendent due to a variety of factors some are controllable like actions and others like demographic groups aren’t. Many in the industry also struggle with valuation of impact and professional greatness. Some people believe it’s the championships, some people believe it’s the stats and some believe it’s both. The reality is most GOATs are elite athletes with various skill sets and comparative strength. The difference is timing. An athlete doesn’t choose to be born in a certain era where their skills are more or less valued or to be on a certain team in a certain era being on the same team with certain players, coaching staff, front office, ownership and fan base. But you know what, if you want to stay long-term in this hobby, you are going to have to understand the dynamics of all of this to determine their GOAT probability. 

Most people analyze the superficial achievements aspects but couldn’t figure out what types of players have high probability of achieving those stats lines. Yamal is 19, already won a World Cup, a European championship, and already has nearly 50 senior career goals while playing for arguably the greatest football team ever. In fact, he scored more goals than both Ronaldo and Messi at this age by a wide margin and when adjusted for competition in era and league, he probably score more competitive goals than Pele and Maradona did at the same age. But you know why some legends are legends of a sport but not transcending global cross-generational-demographically household names? I will leave that one for you to figure out and I won’t say much about Yamal. But you probably know a bit about Spain and Western world’s history with certain aspect of Yamal’s lifestyle. 

Some of the media sensationalism captured on video probably didn’t help with the likeability aspect either. I think Yamal is going to be a great player as he has all the resources both innately and externally to become great in the sports. I just don’t think he will be transcendent. He will probably end up in the same class as Mbappe but above Neymar. Here is something about respect. Even during times of war, imperialism and colonialism, the way people and organizations carry themselves change opinions. You don’t need to look any further than contrasting the difference between British colonialism where many colonized nations are still part of their huge Commonwealth organization including some do the biggest countries in the world like India, Canada, Australia, Nigeria and South Africa among 50 plus countries with over two billion in population. Then look at the French, Dutch, Portuguese, Belgians and even the Spanish. Civility is not just being kind, it’s about being strategic about your intentions and maximizing your interests without unduly harming it along the way. 

If something is mission critical, I probably wouldn’t take chances. There are a lot of b***s*** in the world, you don’t have to be b***s***ed to. One of the biggest time drainers in life is working with inefficient or incompetent  people or more colloquially known, idiots. How do you know you are associating with an idiot? Trust your instinct. If you are speaking with a customer service associate and you immediately feel discomfort, try to hang up the phone ASAP, politely. Attitude is everything in life. Two people could be saying the exact same thing in life and because how they say it, the reaction may be totally different from people. Some people do well AAFRLing but others fail and have to get back to WAFRL to keep their jobs. Latin America is America’s backyard for a simple reason. It is part of the Americas and joined to the hip. Latin America’s politics are complex but everyone wants prosperity but not every country in the region can hang on to it aka Argentina, Cuba and Venezuela. 

Venezuelan will probably have a great future with a strong US partnership. Venezuela is not just oil, mineral or precious metal rich, it is actually sitting on one of the world’s most fertile landscapes which is a goldmine for premium agriculture and husbandry. Venezuela also has a relatively long coast line with many maritime neighbors in the Caribbean as well as Brazil inland. Basically Venezuela in the right hands could really strive as a very formidable military stronghold for the United States. Once Venezuela is firmly under US control, Brazil will effectively be neutered and Cuba will get many Guantanamo Bays while casinos and cigars can strive again on the island. During colonial days, there are certain types of demographics groups the locals never utilized for the field nor for the house, the mixcies probably don’t make good field or house personnel much like the sneaky people from the land of the Sun. Between the underclass, it’s really a matchup of watch your back people and the brute force people. The brute force people may be IQly somewhat unintelligent but they may be simple minded. The watch your back people can seem normal or can be treated as below average IQ mainstream people but they can be very sneaky and backstabbingish.

Future of Venezuela/Cuba/Latin America versus Spain/Portugal European Brazil/Argentina/Chile and how to save time by minimizing sunk cost.

Plus having children near them may or may not be a good idea in the minds of many mainstream people. This is precisely why in one movie a main character may have said “learn them Espanol.” In terms of burden to society, they all cost about 100K each year/per person in prison but are probably the most restless. The US is doing the smart thing by compelling Brazil and to some degree Argentina and Chile to join America’s food cartels to offset against the aggressive policies created by the Giant Lizard, America’s number one enemy. One thing many fulls have gotten very wrong about the Giant Lizard is its Lizards are essentially slave like resources to the regime. Their organs and time all being to the state to be allocated anytime as it pleases. No private property rights or any rights at all exist in Giant Lizard land. The Giant Lizard doesn’t have a dynamic economic because it doesn’t have a vibrant society. In order to control other Lizards, the Giant Lizard must assert dominance at any cost. This is why it relies heavily on exports after its speculative real estate market collapsed. They don’t buy anything for themselves. 

For example, the GMO soy beans they buy are not for domestic consumption they are for re-exports in the form of consumable meat once the animals eat them. Too many Westerners are either too gullible to know that or are just propagandists for the regime. The Lizards barely consume anything healthy and editable in the eyes of most foreigners and according to foreign food standards. It’s so ridiculous to think they are an economic power when they still squat to poopoo like cave animals. In most aspects, they are very primitive in thinking with all the brain power reserved for the people surrounding the Honey Bear. Their whole existence is creating IRL slops for the Western poor to consume. By Giant Lizardizing Latin America and compel defacto former colonies like Brazil, Argentina and Chile to fall in line, America and the Western world could help the countries of underclass people sufficiently serving the best interest of Americans, which technically means they are helping themselves as they are also part of the Americas via PUA affect. Nothing says I love you and means it with a big stick guarding the door steps. I believe Cuba is the Venezuela guard dog of American Caribbean. There are so much land on those island that America could fulfill Lincoln and Douglass’ promise of sending them to the promised land including their cousin bloodlines akin to those living in Dominican Republic next to Haiti. 

These places are excellent places to rehabilitate and re-educate those who may need an alternative work ethics regime instilled into their minds, hearts and genetically conveying cells. America should not allow two-faced Americas of Antarctica South get bamboozled by the Giant Lizards and steal the fruits of America’s Pineda Colada. Americas for Americans. The carrot and big stick is probably the best strategy. These people have been collaborators with the Giant Lizards in counterbalancing America’s Opium War against foreign drugs. The launders and switch barrels in two locations people are probably also helping. It’s time to kick European influence of the Germanics, Portuguese and the Spaniards out of America’s backyard then double swing to restrict import and export of resources from those countries to starve the reptile out of the Giant Lizards. 

The ones that hardly anyone buys yet still mainstream. Panini Prizm 2026 FIFA World Cup sealed card products are probably one of the best value you could get at the big box store retail level. You know what you can find in there? Active superstars and rookies playing for almost every soccer superpower from every major soccer league in the world. Yes, I am not a huge fan of soccer cards for a variety of reasons. However, as someone who is deeply entrench in this hobby, of course I know most of the sports in the world and care about almost everything related to the hobby. Most important of them all, game recognizes game. I can recognize value when I see it. I’m not too crazy about the stickers as I don’t think those are exciting enough for every age group in this hobby. I however do believe the average expected values you could get from these 2026 FIFA World Cup Prizm sealed products especially the hanger boxes are just too good to pass up. We are talking about a line of products that possibly contain chase cards of Ronaldo, Messi, Yamal, Haaland, Mbappe and practically every major player in this game including rookies and legends like Pele and Maradona. The soccer fan base is literally billions. I opened a lot of this line of products and when I say a lot, I am probably not talking about a few cases equivalent of boxes. 

Regardless of front loading, back loading and whatever freestyle loading it might be, I have been very surprised with the type of long-term value I been getting from almost every single hanger box. What I look for is long-term value as part of a pipeline. A pipeline when functioning properly doesn’t let water or any other liquids turn stale because it constantly brings in new batches just to push them out too. Pipelines do need to be maintained and managed for it to be functional and useful. No GOAT card stay constant all the time in terms of value when inflation adjusted. If you treat collecting as a game of hoarding, you will almost certainly lose money whether nominally or purchasing power adjusted. Transaction cost, transportation and storage cost are actually very significant cost factors in this industry. Hence hoarding everything is going to incur the amount in transaction fees including cash flow related costs that probably will equate to the cost of buying the cards themselves. Investing long-term doesn’t mean the pipeline should take input and flush out outputs. It just means know what long-term means for certain investments and transact to get into new long-term investments when the previous long-term investments are no longer long term.

The best sealed collectible sports cards deal right now are the 2026 Panini Prizm FIFA World Cup big box store retail hanger.

The variation cards are great and so are the numbered cards and other special insertions. The red white and blue wave color match for certain players on certain national teams are out of this world like works of art. Each hanger box from the product line comes with a number of rookie cards. Sure not every rookie will become the next Mbappe whose Prizm rookie card from 2018 sells for around $100 raw. Let’s be honest, Mbappe level of player there are probably at least and arguably a dozen of such player right now in the world of soccer. My point is it probably doesn’t take more than 20 hanger boxes from this product line to find a rookie card of a potential future Mbappe type of player. Each hanger box is around $20 USD, hence we are talking about probably 2 or 3 rookies pulled from opening 20 or so hanger boxes from that product line who could develop into that caliber of a player. Both Ronaldo and Messi are at the tail end of their competitive careers with many emerging superstars in the pipeline. I personally think this could be one of the best times to invest into this type of set. This type of scenario has almost never happened in professional sports before except in soccer even so it’s not very common. 

While people were busy lining up for the latest Pokemon or major US domestic sports cards sets which usually sell out fast, there are other who literally buy the entire case because hardly anyone actually card about the soccer cards. I probably wouldn’t have bought so many of those cards a few years ago at that price range, however, I believe right now soccer is in its golden age in terms of talents and pretty much everything else. Many countries that use to be poor and couldn’t afford to develop the best players are now wealthier and some are super wealthy where they are spending billions of player development at all levels. Then comes the massive contracts and transfer fees. The storylines are also getting inter-generational as well. I think buying into the 2026 World Cup Prizm card sets are a good deal considering soccer is so massive, many leagues have their own recognizable hall of fames. The color match probably wasn’t priced into the retail selling price of this product. This product will be very popular in the future also wasn’t priced into this product either otherwise it would be extremely difficult to get any of these boxes at retail prices. In fact, many people believe this product is over printed which might be true. You know what I think? 

I believe the overprinted stuff will probably be left in inventory somewhere to collect dust. Most people don’t realize how much damage a card could receive by sitting in a box that is not well-stored for a long-time. From another perspective, many of these cards won’t sell well after a few decades due to a variety of issues. Having a card of a player out of the box now versus keeping a card of a player inside of a box while not knowing which cards are inside of a box have a lot of drawbacks. This hobby is speculative and dynamic, having cards sitting in a box is probably not going to be the best way to win in this hobby for long. Just like in competitive sports good judgment is important. Look at what will probably happen to the large number of Ohtani premium cards people were holding on to. The same people will probably end up holding large bags of premium Jordan and Brady chase cards when that market declines as well from its peak. The bottomline is nothing is forever, especially not something as fickle as GOATs that some people probably came up to troll those who actually took those acronyms seriously. 

Yes, this is happening. You will be lucky to get through a few hours of watch videos online without watching one of those potential drop-ship scams from a certain Giant Lizard country. The only thing positive about their economy are the fake numbers they came up with. At the street level, there Lizards have lost at least 50% of their wealth due to either or a combination of job loss, salary cuts, 60% drop on their real estate value and an approximate 4% accumulated five year gain which is about .80% gain a year from their main stock index and a 430% gain in 31 years. If that’s called an economic miracle, then I don’t know what to make of the approximate 75% and 930% gain in five years and 31 years respectively from the S&P 500. Sure, they aren’t fighting external wars. Look under the surveillance cameras, you will notice billions more that are manned and womanned by neighborhood watch groups, police and monitors all on government payroll to prevent their own people from rioting. 

Not only does the domestic security apparatus including its snitch hotlines, paramilitary elements and civilian core cost multiples of it’s stated budget when comprehensive costs are considered costing trillions a year, it also prevent the hundreds of millions being watched from being productive. There are approximately 300 million unemployed Lizards doing odd jobs and hundreds of millions more on subsistence farming. Considering there is virtually no significant social safety net in Giant Lizard Land, those Lizards literally need an app to tell others they are no longer breathing. Thanks to the greatest policies and the potent realpolitiking by American history’s most clear-eyed administration ever, real damage has been done to the Giant Lizard. Manufacturing jobs are coming back. You know what else is coming back? Huge demand for blue collar skilled workers in construction to build AI data centers, rare earth processing facilities and semiconductor plants among many other advanced specialized manufacturing supply chain. You know what that brings?

Giant Lizard spies and companies infiltrating American social media with possible scam ads.

More talents, more money, more jobs, more funding for everything including for schools, innovation. social services and for the military. You know why your favorite TPC is not worried about the supposed mixed results or industrial policies that purportedly is against capitalism and free market? Isn’t it obvious? You really believe someone is going to run a multi-billion company in any given area without backing from government institutions? You think the billion dollar company built the highways 100 years ago that allowed them to transport goods to the area? You think they stimulated the economy during a recession? You think they built the world-class universities and immigration policies that allowed them to hire the very best? If everything was left to capitalism, no money would have been made because everyone would have contributed to its destruction one self-interested action at a time. The Giant Lizard is quite desperate trying to evade the inevitable trade wars with its major partners including the EU which will likely exploit its domestic issues and external pains caused by tariffs and sanctions. It will eventually will have to open up its financial system which is something it wants to avoid but unfortunately won’t be able to due to its ambitions trying to internationalize its currency. 

The lost tribe people have tried for years open up its credit card market. The Giant Lizard either have to devalue its currency or sell US treasury to prop it up. Unfortunately, neither will actually work. Devaluing its currency will only cause more capital flight regardless of their financial controls. As long as there are business activities and money to be made, money laundering and money transfers will probably be pervasive in Giant Lizard land. Selling US treasury is futile because the yield is so attractive, Giant Lizard people themselves will find a way to buy US treasury via exchanging for USD to prop up the dollar and hence depreciate Giant Lizard money. People can vote with their hands and feet despite what the rhetorics are. I believe the next steps after the de minimis policy change will likely be more consumer protection around online platforms especially when technologically this is now feasible in areas such as internet sales tax collection. Big Lizard is trying to do shortcuts by scamming Americans and Western aligned people with drop shipping schemes of low quality products while using AI to pretend it is a Western affiliated product. Many of their ads when it’s real feature East Europeans which any American and Westerner worth their cheeseburger with bacon, high carbohydrates and implicit biases and bigotry can spot the difference ASAP. As for the spies, these Lizards are laughable. The Giant Lizard believe this is some kind of asymmetric people’s warfare, when in reality, for millenniums the Lizards have always been the Lizard they are dynasty after dynasty without fail. Their Lizards will abandon them and run to high grounds as soon as they small difficulties and internal strife. Hundreds of millions of them have already done so historically including the Giant Lizards who are running the show have already shipped their families overseas. 

Their whole legitimacy bank on getting the Lizards rich but not through innovation or independent thinking because that will destroy the harmony. Their international students population in the US will likely decline to the sub-200K within five years and sub-100K within 15 years as they become much poorer. The sanctions on their institutions and Lizards have definitely helped. The quality of America’s immigrants have greatly improved significantly from Giant Lizard and neighboring countries with the biggest improvement from previously privileged groups like the Canadians. No sane person who loves pure freedom wants to live anywhere else besides America and those who say the contrary are mostly ignorant or straight up spilling nonsense. What US person who understands what is best for them would actually want to get paid 500 Giant Lizard currency to attend a welcome ceremony for Honey Bear in the US right now? Which vulnerable elite talent would actually want to visit Big Lizard with the possibility of being border controlled and exit banned in Giant Lizard land forever? In summation, the Giant Lizard is so desperate that it breaks its own VPN laws to scam Westerners via internet, scam calls and all kinds of other scams including honey traps. 

The Yankees should have been in the 2026 World Series. They had the best position players and probably the best pitching rotation. If it wasn’t for the manager who couldn’t coach and the minor league fielding errors and poor roster construction like letting Judge return before the playoffs when games were almost meaningless and aggravating his injuries causing him to not be in the playoffs, the Yankees were for sure going to beat everyone to win their first World Series in years. Instead, what we got is Brewers trouncing the Dodgers as predicted by yours truly. Don’t believe me regarding the 2026 rendition of the Rays. Just look at what the Guardians did to them in game 1. The Guardians literally had a worse regular season record than the Yankees in 2026. During this year’s playoff series, the Rays didn’t even get many runs in, all they did was make the Yankees play defense and they won the series. Of course when Grisham is a lead hitter when you got Judge and Dominguez playing and Stanton and Goldschmidt barely hitting in the series people may have questions about those decisions. Like I said before, the whole flight to GOAT cards are a joke. There is no such thing as a forever GOAT. 

The bigger farce is most people lack the professional training and elite pedigree to determine the perceived GOAT by viewing an elite player’s attributes. Alternative assets at the current moment and likely for a long time will be very volatile. Have you not looked at the stock market and treasure yields? People can get very high returns just investing in the S&P 500 at about 13% YTD returns even before the Santa rally which could help get the 2026 S&P 500 to 15-18%. I hate to break the news to the newbies. There has never been rookie card speculation because speculation and expectation were already baked into any financial assets based on time value of money principles. The so-called rookie card speculation is basically just a variant of that principle. Have you seen the prices for rookie cards of old rookies? They are usually comparatively extremely cheap. Why is that? Probably because of expectations and potential difference kind of like in the money and out of the money concepts in options, no? Anyway, Ohtani is a foreign player on a team that is potentially going through some off the field stuff.

The real 2026 World Series matchup: Yankees vs. Brewers; Buy Rice and Bonds and sell Ohtani, Jordan and Brady chase cards now.

Ohtani’s reputation going forward may or may not be what it is now due to a variety of reasons I won’t specify here. Human beings all have emotions, moods and conditions which can change momentum. Ohtani is purportedly experiencing lingering sports related issues which considering his age, when his contract ends and his TJ surgery, I have low confidence he will become a GOAT at all. If Brewers crush the Dodges with a 4-0 or a 4-1 series win, Ohtani’s cards will probably experience a major shock. The Yankees will probably end up making management changes and right the ship. Their ship is filled with gold and allure, they just need a good captain. Ben Rice has the charisma, leadership and seems to live for the big moments. Judge is probably a second-in-command type based on a holistic set of factors. Yankees need to rebuild their farm system. They have plenty of power, they just need a bit more culture at this moment. Bonds at a few dollars for his rookie cards are a steal. Jordan will always be associated with Nike. 

The Nike current situation is very fluid and Jordan probably didn’t pick the best time to finally fight for major social causes NASCAR or not. Brady is literally the weakest of the GOATs out of the three major sports. The baseball equivalent would be a Pete Rose, Shoeless Jackson or Jose Altuve. How much is a Pete Rose Charlie Hustle selling for now, you don’t need to even check, it’s like $30. The Chiefs will probably be Super Bowl contenders every year with high likelihood of winning their conference and meet the Ram or another super team in the Super Bowl. Unfortunately for the Rams, the chemistry and the hype with Aaron Donald’s return didn’t really pan out well. Donald’s return probably hurt Ram’s chemistry and possibly exacerbated their potential lockeroom ego and character issues. Historically teams going 2-3 to start a season will likely not do too well during the season and for the next season. The Bills don’t have a history of winning Super Bowls, the 49ers are missing pieces and the Seahawks gave the Chiefs the player they needed. I think Mahomes will probably win 3 Super Bowls in the next eight years and will probably win another one to two more if he played football into his mid 40s like Brady did. I also believe LeBron will supersede Jordan as the GOAT within two decades after he retires.

The United States Alternative Assets Collectible Cards Composite Index (USAACCCI) update for October 13, 2026.

Buy Ben Rice base rookie cards at $1 to $2 dollars in moderation! Most undervalued player’s rookie card on the Sixers is Tyrese Maxey at around $1 to $2 you could get some real gems like his Prizm rookie cards. VJ Edgecomb is already overly hyped for the role he likely will have for the next three to five years. Maxey is bankable now as a superstar who has been severely underestimated. He will start winning championships to go along with his elite stats and that will change the equation on his rookie cards’ valuation.

Most people are wrong about one thing about buying a home, it has an opportunity cost than renting when all things are equal. Don’t believe me? Let’s do some math. Let’s assume it’s a 500K house with 20% down and the rest on mortgage at 7% fixed for 30 years. Regardless filing status either have to give up standard deduction or give up itemization on mortgage interests paid. Even for year one when interest is at its peak interest is around 27K paid, married filing jointly standard deduction is around 32K in 2026. Interests only get smaller from there. In later years of the mortgage the interest amount will be most likely be declining based on the payment schedule while standard deduction amounts typically go up a small percentage every year especially when inflation is significant and sometimes go up by around 100% like the jump from 2017 to 2018 though its due to eliminating personal and dependent exemptions. Anyway, point being, consider mortgage interest tax savings as a non-factor for most people who don’t have millions of reasons to get a tax expert to help them do legal “tax avoidance.” People will then say well I don’t have to pay rent. 

Okay, let’s do some arithmetic there too. You don’t have rent but you have property tax at about 10k a year, house repair maintenance charges at about 3k a year, home insurance at 2k a year, monthly expenses like lawn and trash bills at about 1k a year, potential special tax assessments that we won’t tally here and probably have to pay much more for utilities than living in a modest apartment which we won’t calculate for simplicity sake. You are probably looking at 15k at minimum to maintain a home that yields zero investment returns. Sure, the house may appreciate in 30 years, let’s say on average 3X return on original price paid during this period which probably will take you close to retirement. You also paid around 550k in interest plus probably origination fees and likely other fees totaling near 600k. Yes you probably can get maybe 500k in exclusion for primary residence filing jointly and may be some states don’t even have state income tax and capital gains tax, at the federal level though, you are likely still on the hook for taxes on the gain and possibly have to pay NIIT tax.

Why renting is better than buying a home every time, anywhere in the world.

For simplicity sake let’s say your 1.5 million gain on selling your primary residence generated 1 million in taxable gains that come out to be around 300k in taxes. It costed you 900k to generate about 1.5 million in gain which means your net gain is about 600k when tangible costs are considered. 600k may be a lot of money, but if you actually  put the 100k down payment into S&P 500 for 30 years at 10%, it will grow to close to 2 million. Never mind the potential employer contributions and real tax benefits from  putting it into a 401(k) with employer contributions and nevermind on putting 2k in monthly mortgage payment into the S&P 500 for 30 years which will generate about 4.5 million plus real tax benefits and employer contributions via 401(k). Which combined is likely worth 10 million or more over 30 years. Bottomline is, all the prorated monthly expense alone from owning a house could pay rent. 

The opportunity, non-financial side of owning a home like security and peace of mind can also turn into burden, not flexible to life changes like moving for a job, bad neighbors, criminalization of the neighborhood and you can’t do a thing about it unless you want to be called a racist, neighbor remodeling for a whole year and much more. Psst, did I tell you, millennials and whatever species come after that don’t shop and dine in restaurants the same way anymore nevermind on their appetite on owning an expensive home as that’s a boomer thing to do in their mind which they will probably avoid at all cost since they probably don’t even want children nor marriage anymore. The boomers rather consume everything before they go to another dimension than leaving these youngies any as typical of the most entitled, richest and selfish generation the world had ever seen. I couldn’t care less about the politics, all I’m saying is don’t let your incompetency ruin your life pretending to be ignorant. 

At this point, the local authorities received official central government orders from the highest places to release Ocekay within the a week. Many of the officials and people involved in the Ocekay affairs were disappeared, to save face, the local government officials first requested to have the parents of Ocekay to sign for his release. Since Ocekay don’t care much about them due to ethical and ideological reasons, they then tried the honey trap route a few more time which failed again. They needed a political win somehow and were desperate to get one. OceKay knew about this, through informal channels like the attractive nurse, Ocekay nonchalantly mentioned about wanting to see Man Vs. Tank on the 17th floor. Of course, everyone including the eavesdroppers pretended like nothing happened like a large swath of internet content just magically disappeared suddenly and without any reasons. The authorities think they can outsmart Ocekay only to be trapped into a conspiracy themselves. During one of the forced confession and struggle sessions, Ocekay feinted to be overwhelmed with pressure and mentioned a dream involving a cult leader whom the central government is obsessed with. OceKay knew this was the key to get into a particular mental institution. Ocekay wanted to expose the oppressive secrets hidden by the state, more than that, Ocekay wanted to meet a personal hero who has inspired billions with his bravery. Ocekay spent years tracking down the Man vs. Tank which led Ocekay to this particular location’s 17th floor where the MVT is kept. 

During Ocekay’s time at the mental institution, in addition to all the human rights abuses mentioned previous, Ocekay witnessed the beating of elopers from the North, forced videotaped nude contact showers of patients by the staff, 17 year old kids being forced to go through electroconvulsive therapy and the staff laughs and says it’s good for him which the boy’s family were brainwashed to sign off on all because the boy reported a sexual abuse ring at the state-sponsored school, staff repeatedly hit the head of a young kid who is going through trauma while calling the kid a bastard whose own parents even abandoned him. There were many celebrities, government officials, academics and billionaires who were disappeared in that hospital whom Ocekay met. The most memorable has to be a poker superstar who won tournaments after tournaments overseas and internationally yet disappears into the abyss every few years or so when he returns home. Ocekay asked the man why he still returns, why not just become a dissident abroad. He says once he is out of sight, his voice won’t mean as much. His departing gift for Ocekay was a quote “Let the truth brighten the world, the world will be brighter with the truth.”

Every time Ocekay was escorted by state security to go for “treatments” Ocekay notice beside the 14th floor being missing replaced by 13A, the 17th floor appears to be inaccessible by elevator. The top floor per the hospital staff during their daily gossip which was overheard by Ocekay’s allies in the hospital, was used as the “pleasure room” which were constructed by the local elites for government officials. Many young children and adult were locked in there for years and trained to please the sadistical needs of powerful individuals including central government figures, lost tribe people and liberal elites from the Western world. It’s a segment called “matchmaking” as advertised by many secret elite societies in the West to elude strict child protection, sexual orientation laws and human trafficking laws in the West marked as a “disruptive” technology in certain “Valleys.” The lost tribe people no longer is satisfied just with money, they wanted the industrial military complex of the A-S. Since SO broken up in the early part of last century the RC family’s descendants in Europe are desperate for surrogates who had New World last names and heritage. Their descendants and lieutenant/offshoot lineages married Giant Lizard elite heirs with halfie offsprings to hedge against the world. 

They openly engage in coordination with the Giant Lizard through honey trap conducts who may have married powerful media moguls, business elites and political figures. These figures frequently introduce other Giant Lizards as romantic interests to their newly attached host families. The lost tribe people are beginning to irritate the A-S and they know it. Many of such people may have met the highest level of central government leadership and may be pledged members of certain world’s largest communistic organization. Many missing children and young adults around the world who may have escaped certain islands in the Western Hemisphere end up there. When they are no longer useful, they will then be sold for their organs or used for human experimentations while they are fully conscious. Many European countries saw this coming a thousand years ago, did something about it and now are some of the richest and most powerful countries in the world. They disassociated these people from educating their elites and children and became independently powerful. 

Besides talking to children of elites who stabbed people to death or sex addicts between the military style daily routines, Ocekay enjoy speaking with an economic professor whose family signed the paperworks to lock him up in the mental hospital despite him being around 70 years old so they can steal his fortunes. He will never be able to get out unless he turns into a different form because his family members need to sign for his release which they won’t. In contrast, there are genuinely regular old people who are bonded all day to a bed or baby chair because their family members refuse to take care of them. They are so desperate for any relief in life that one of them stole Ocekay’s playing cards thinking it was a pack of cigarettes. “Patients” who weren’t high-value political prisoners had to share a small all glass room with multiple people where many homosexual activities frequently occur. 

Due to lack of visitations, many patients are extremely sex starved and horny. They would frequently make sexually explicit comments about the breasts of attractive nurses knowing many of them were already raped by government officials and elites when they were virgins. No legitimate family in that country would voluntarily send their young sexually attractive offsprings to become serve workers which is just another word for slave possibly sexual slaves. The attractive nurse during the chaotic lunch time furtively slid Ocekay a note. In the note, the nurse tells Ocekay she was forced to spy on Ocekay against the nurse’s will. The nurse go on to say that the nurse thought about suicide when the nurse refused and then was raped by the police station chief in front of the entire security bureau orgy style. The nurse then proceeded to say everyone at the hospital were notified to monitor Ocekay and make sure nothing serious happens to Ocekay other than the routine oppresses abuses like forced feeding, ET and medicating. It got so serious that besides being videotaped and interviewed by the whole hospital, Ocekay was not allowed to possess a pen or any other sharp objects in the hospital. One day when Ocekay displaced the pen the attractive nurse lend Ocekay, the nurse was about to cry when Ocekay relocated it and returned it back. The whole hospital including attractive nurse increasingly gained significant respect for Ocekay. The attractive nurse would even allow Ocekay to grab late night snacks at the pantry to spend time alone with Ocekay. 

Meanwhile outside of the mental hospital, Ocekay’s story spread like wildfire among those in the know. Even some of the censures themselves were fans of Ocekay’s work. Ocekay is now portrayed as a people’s hero and the inspiration of many resistance movements in the country and countries in the region where there are authoritarian governments. Ocekay’s government name is suddenly showing up as the name of protagonists in thousands of online entertainment programs from short films, movies, novels, music videos, forums, songs, rap, children’s nursery rhymes you name it. Many children nowadays are named after Ocekay either directly or indirectly. Those who know Ocekay personally call Ocekay a hero outright without any reservations. Not only foreign governments were pressuring Ocekay’s captures to release Ocekay, the central government believe detaining Ocekay is bad business. When asked AI why Ocekay’s government name is so popular and everywhere, AI says it’s because Ocekay’s government is endearing and down to earth meaning it’s authentic, heroic and just give out the kind of vibe people naturally trust. People are even actively trademarking Ocekay’s government name in different sectors of the economy and in different countries. Suddenly the government couldn’t censor Ocekay’s story because Ocekay is no longer a person, Ocekay is hope, a myth and most importantly history, something even if they could they wouldn’t want to wipe away. 

The Legend of Ocekay novel series is based on a true, original story written by The Permanent Contrarian. The Legend of Ocekay novel series will be updated weekly on this site until the conclusion of the second part of the multi-part series.

AI is definitely coming for your jobs if you are in this field. In fact, most people will probably get use to not dealing with people and  unnecessary relationships that potential cause drama all together. Unlike in authoritarian countries like Giant Lizard Land and Tropical Fungus Foot city-state where you are bound by slavish feudal undemocratic cultural values where you have almost no true individual Western rights, the consumerism driven economy in the West require people to make living wages, spend on borrowed money like how financial institutions operate then pretend that banks are different from the Bernards in how they run their businesses. The other issue the West have is time is very costly when things are idle especially during the metaphorical off seasons when they don’t have a Pyramid to build to keep them business. 

The planners cant just let AI replace jobs before a regulatory solution is put into place to prevent GDP stagnation. The most logical thing to do is to retrain which has been down many times with the Baby Boomers with computers in the workplace, calculators, the internet, social media etc. The usually solution is creating jobs around the automation that replaced these people’s old jobs. Of course they will still be overpaid versus Giant Lizard involutionaires but they will at least be able to shop like a Lizardnaire on site of potential questionable ethical Western standards. Being advanced was never about living an adventurous daily existence in Soviet style 40 year old skyscraper apartment complexes built with materials that last 20 years or working in a monoculture empty office buildings with a 10% occupancy and neon lights going off at night, it’s all about being able to live in a 100 year old house that can last for another hundred years with minimal repairs, a huge backyard and actual private property ownership and being the kingqueen of your own castle.

How to survive the AI impact in the “office and administrative support”occupational sector.

If you are in the field within fifteen years of retirement, just learn the very basics about AI like asking it questions. That will probably get you by. You probably don’t make all that much money anyway and contest your POV in court, at the unemployment agency or in the arena of public opinion is probably not even worth it for them. Plus people who been out of school for more than five years probably are in the same boat regarding AI. They are already teaching AI in school that means anyone who enters the workforce now and within the last five years will be somewhat AI trained. They are already mid-career people will have it the hardest. These people are going to have to compete with the youngies who will be more technical savvy in a sector that will be mostly automated. The way to survive is actually surprisingly simple. The young people entering the industry will be technologically trained, eventually more numerous in numbers, and won’t be as folksy. 

If something 25 years or older in the collector’s world can be called a classic, what do you call the decreasing supply of pre-AI mid-career employees whose spent a large chunk of their time doing something different than the current entrants? Complimentary pieces? Point guards? Unicorns? If I were in that position, I would probably get a certificate in the field which will be relatively cost-effective compared to going to school for a job that probably doesn’t even pay all that well. I would also probably learn the basics of AI so I can be on the same wave length as everyone else even if my niche is not in that. I will then double down on my folksiness making it cool again. A lot of decent to top sales people don’t do their paperwork nor administrative stuff but they bring in the BLT tray feeding a lot of people. I would then stay away from WAFRLing in this sunset sector for most humans and instead engage in heavy AAFRLing. 

1. Block Giant Lizard students from studying at any prestigious US and Western-aligned universities except democracy majors with secondary sanctions on any country that does not comply. 
2. Arrest all influential Giant Lizard elites’ friends, families, relatives and associates.
3. US immigration laws tied to verifiable hostile activities in the Giant Lizard land, not verifiable equals no visa. 
4. Nuclearize Taiwan with dual use nuclear technology and eventually transition into state of art defensive use. 
5. Send the Western undesirables, illegals and permanent potential criminal classes and other undesirables as determined by low-scoring HWMI segments to Giant Lizard land via Tibet and East Turkestan. Arm them with provisions and weapons and the strongest that returns are tokenized as racial heroes. 
6. Take notes on every single item not effectively produced in America and the Western-aligned world with ample internal competition. Import substitute these and provide rare earth mining type of industrial policy money and over time take down names of entities that deal with the Giant Lizard and brand them as traitors and provide disincentives to stop their behavior then incentives kick in. Rap softly but shove a big chopstick. 
7. After the Western world has reached self-sufficiency, let the non-first world know what’s up with some real aircraft and bomber magic sugarcoated with USDs. 
8. Use allies such as India and Ukraine near Giant Lizard’s borders to expand further into Giant Lizard’s sphere of influence.
9. Use their land as a dumping ground for hazardous waste, experimental venues for the latest made in USA goodies.
10. Legally, culturally and morally claim the land and its cultural heritages as an American actually founded the country and American resources were used to build up the country from universities to everything else. 

The Giant Lizard won’t do anything even remotely reciprocal about any of the above besides not selling something that’s already abundant except limited by the left-wing due to processing regulations which won’t continue for long. America’s AI brain drain is as real as Giant Lizard suddenly becoming a major consumer of fine Japanese seafood.

This will probably be one of the shortest posts I will ever write. Tai Peete parents are athletes. His father trained him. His Japanese ancestry comes from his maternal side of the family who are involved in baseball. His mother played little league baseball and participated in the European regional championships in the early 1990s, not softball, hardball the real deal baseball. Not going to lie, that’s kind of gangsta. Besides his athletic frame and freakish athletic power hitting and fielding versatilities, he has a very positive attitude on life and is kind of a social media star with a significant following. In life, your natural gifts and abilities are important, it does however take a positive attitude and a passion to keep going. 

He handled himself very well in an organization that will probably be patient with his growth. Stat wise, you can do your own research and will probability be amazed. He has addressed a lot of his areas for improvements like decreasing his strikeout rates while still being an aggressive hitters getting power hits. Injury and health might be an issue from a baseball perspective but I think if the Cardinals are not that concerned and he himself says he has fully recovered, it probably might not be chronic nor long-term. I think all things considered he is decently durable as a player. On the card side, his cards are crazy cheap from a value investing standpoint. We are talking about Leaf 1/1 autos for around $10 dollars.

October 2026 USAACCCI watch list: Tai Peete chase rookie/prospect 1/1 RPA cards.

At 21 and likely in triple A early next year and a possible big league call up before or shortly after turning 22, I am getting all the good card deals on his rookie/prospect chase cards that I can get. When prospecting MLB prospects, I generally do not buy a massive amount of a specific player’s base rookie card for the simple reason of not being able to and price/transactional cost issues. From an upside standpoint, if he becomes even a one time all-star, his 1/1 RPAs currently at $10-20 or so will probably be in the mid to high triple digits at least. I think he has that potential. Unlike other prospects, he is under the radar due to hype elsewhere. 

His prospect rankings are improving rapidly. I think if he gets called up at 21 it will be a huge W. The Cardinals seem to be willing to do things at that kind of speed historically speaking. The bottomline is, his career is promising, he pleasantly surprised many including the Cardinals, he is under hyped and his chase cards are literally too cheap to ignore at this point. If I see a large number of his 1/1 RPAs selling at this $10-$20 price range at a physical store within the next six months, I will run to the ATM get as much cash as I can then buy as much as I can with the cash I have on hand at that moment. It’s so cheap, I would feel like a fool not to buy them all like that in that situation I described above. 

It’s all about the moolah baby. The thing is, if something is boring, you won’t be passionate while doing it. While you make good money, you are squandering other valuable resources like time which is basically the input resources you utilized to generate the output resource called money or wealth. If you don’t get joy from doing something, what is the point of making money when you live a miserable existence half of the time possibly leading to deteriorating health? It’s not even the fact that the business is boring. Is the fact that you are not qualified to do anything else. The boring work plus the poor and unsavory shadylites people you might have to interact with while working in these business is probably why you shouldn’t be in the business in the first place. Who uses a laundry mat and a car wash? What is the probabilistic crime rate in many of the areas that house these places next to a bus station? You become who you deal with. You will end up having a high likelihood of gambling or smoking or some other characteristics from everyday social interactions with these people. You are telling me you can cold turkey from these people and lifestyle after you get rich if these new habits allow you to get rich at all? If you can only make money by doing so you yourself don’t really want to do, perhaps you need to fix your life first. 

The first you need to do is get a great education then get some prestigious experience by working for global companies and go from there. You will thank yourself for getting personal assets that no one can take away from you and probably transferable everywhere in the world. To find true comprehensive cost and value, assess the situation holistically. No one ever escape a conflict even if they appear to be physically unscathed. The mental scar will always be there, whether one remembers it’s there or not, it’s a glaring spot people including the participant will always notice, to what degree and what they do about it is the real question. You can’t possibly believe experiencing any sort of drama doesn’t affect you and specifically, doesn’t affect your ability to make money. You might have to repeat something nine times to remember or you could just repeat it one time then associate it with something else you already repeated nine times to remember a related subject matter. AI is inspired by the human brain but humans depends on generative AIs to learn about the human brain to explain it back to humans. You see where the issue might be? You don’t need to be a goldfish to forget. But goldfishes also forget about everything even if you remind the goldfish, it won’t remember that either.

Buying boring businesses is a bad idea and leveraging burger flipping prestige, AI explained it perfectly.

If you forget everything, did anything actually happen in the world? Of course that’s a potential lie or half truth, because no one actually knows how our own brains or for that matter how anything in this world actually work nevermind knowing what a goldfish thinks. The only thing people have done is inventing something as a basis to invent something else. That’s how civilization and history come into play and most of which are just SWAG. There is no such thing as a “good guy” or “bad guy” and binary, there is only a guy, a no guy and 98 different gender classes hesheitherhimwho. All jokes aside, something’s are probability better not being remembered. Don’t remember one thing, remember two or more things associated with that one thing. Make your brain into an integrated dual ROM and Ram system where temporary and long-term memories get divided into consumable and recallable segments of your recollection library operated by your consciousness CPU. Look at the total cost. Why some people in certain occupational groups drink and smoke a lot while others a gamble and do other things? Coping is one reason.

If you need that many outside influences to cope with something you don’t want to do, why are you doing it in the first place if there are other ways to obtain the same overall level of standard of living? Trickle down economics, being self-centered, self-serving and self-enriching is what being a true worldly humanitarian is all about. When you are well-to-do, everyone else’s lives get better in your world imaginary or not, probably is same difference with an indifference to you. If they ain’t selling burgers but providing supply chain and real estate usage, then you aren’t flipping burgers but crispy gold dipping. There is only one issue though. Your time in this dimension is finite and you likely won’t be here to take advantage of the time machine, even if you do, the first versions will likely be time traveling forward and not backward due to the current laws of physics that governs space and time. Even when you flip a burger, whether you flip at a global number one chain or at global no names make a huge difference. Even within that ranks, being in a 5% or 95% make a huge difference from a long-term career perspective even if the logo is exactly the same, the career track is way different for the same self-taught/no schoolers. 

1. Prepaid phone plan – It’s not just a phone plan or a phone number. It’s internet, entertainment, a learning tool, email and much more. Knowing you can get a phone number. Best part of them all, you can get this basically anonymously. 
2. PO Box – Did you know the PO Box also can be transformed into a “physical address” with a street address? Now you know. 
3. Insurance company roadside assistance – Emergency services and hotlines are there but the roadside assistance plan is legally obligated to meet your needs within a reasonable amount of time. Given how much people drive, this is basically timeshared security and safety net.
4. Fishing license – It’s so cheap considering how much fish you could legally catch and keep a day, if you are jobless or have time on your hands, it’s a no brainer to get. 
5. Employer sponsored 401(k) plan with matching – Tax deferred, high annual potential portfolio growth and potential contribution from employer? Sounds pretty good. 
6. HSA investment plan – Triple tax benefits? Sounds kind of good.
7. Hobby based FU reserve – Not very liquid but you actually enjoy your hobby. Since you will almost never sell unless it’s a true emergency, if it’s worth something, makes sense to use it as a reserve.
8. University alumni email – Talk about credibility building when sending resumes and correspond with reputable people and organizations even if you went to a crappy school. 
9. Getting a comma and a few letters next to your name – It might not be a PhD or President, a credible low-maintenance recognizable certificate or license with a large pool of people having it, a standardized process and an institution backing it gives you credibility when you don’t have any. 
10. Website and domain name – You can literally tell the world whoever you want to be then localize on your success. Imagine telling people you are the CEO of a business that has a website and people actually believe you because it’s verifiably real.

Repeat after me, CSR exists but I am not in a position to change the world. You do enough by donating lots of cards, educating people about the hobby, generating taxable income for many and staying off the streets as you are one of those who is too busy earning money working to feed your semi-gambling, card collecting addiction while attending card shows during the weekend and taking good care of your cards. In fact, you probably already reached carbon neutral at this point of your life. The biggest issue in this hobby and in vast majority of the alternative assets world is not boy-girl math due to lack of education and real high-class world experience nor is it not having discipline. Those are major issues  problems in this space that likely will be addressed when this hobby becomes more institutionalized with rule-based regulatory guidelines. The number one problem that plague this industry is expectation arbitrage. Like almost everything else the common person touches, many of these things eventually becomes worthless unless there are regulatory or wealthy/talented people’s involvement.  If I see suspected scalpers buying a lot of items of that alternative asset product, I immediately disengage from potentially buying those products. 

Why? Because the targeted product’s growth, regardless how great it is, will be stunted. The card companies out of their “altruism” and concerns for the collectors not being able to buy some will just end up printing a billion more. The initial creaming at the top will increase prices so much that put these products out of reach for many collectors, from the economic perspective and the emotional perspective. A product being associated with unsavory scalpers of certain widely-held mental imagery of certain low-purchasing power/disproportionally vocal  demographic groups will utterly destroy the hobby chronically and eventually. Worse yet, most people don’t realize keeping sealed products is absolutely the worst of worst ideas from an investment perspective. When everyone participates in this behavior, the bubble builds up and gets popped very quick because there won’t be enough actual perceived consumption and attrition to speak of. It also means there are no exposure to the excitement from the buzz of finding that magical card, no economic effect from grading to investing to transaction fees hence no incentives from industry links to actually keep the value up. Worse yet, the cards will likely just get degradated inside of the box due to heat, moisture, smoke, germs, bugs, pollution, sunlight, oxidation, physical handling of the box, being farted on by your other half or your dogs and/or cats and you name it. The idea that people actually think putting something into a box and assigning value to it is not gambling with a gambler’s premium is nuts. It’s as crazy as a subpar hood-like NBA player push a real five time MVP of a different foreign complexion to the ground, then turns his back around and believe no retaliation will occur.

How to beat the alternative assets collectible cards market and win against scalpers, cocktail collectors, baby hustlers, basement dwellers, dealers, auction houses, online sellers, grading companies, Wall Street juniors, the entire industrial complex and all their baby/hood/grand mamas.

Collectibles and pretty much anything in life that are worth money must be accessible in some form or way to everyone at a certain time, even if it’s not in a tangible way. This is the ONLY way value gets built. If you stranglehold such real or imaginary access to a large mass of people, that bubble will burst faster than losing number one superpower status and still thinking your fiat is going to be a reserve currency. It’s not even about losing something, it’s the perception of possibly losing something that changes the behavior/alters the shot for all parties involved, this is how the stock market, how the economy and how relationships and how everything in the world works. Either the junk people gets offloaded or the offloading will happen due to all the junk in society. This is a zero-sum game, whether you like it or not. It means nothing to the aliens who are drooling over your “welcome to xxxxxx, how may I help you” $20 an hour wage standard of living while they slave their own giants lizard people to impotency. If you are going to spend tens of thousands on this hobby, you probably should at least understand its economics including your own economics such as your cost of time spent ratio versus hobbyist averages. The out of the pocket tangible cost is not the only cost and the increase in card/asset value is not the only gains. 

Factors lowering the risk of you being accosted by the undesirables at night while participating in activities like playing basketball at a park with extremely strong competition, altercation due to mating another primate, engaging in stupid behavior like spending all your money and energy having and raising children and pleasing your partner and not getting paid for it who will all end up being capitalistically or communistically exploited anyway because you are poor and Ivy-less uneducated, or getting your car jacked or getting robbed is probably a gain in the grand scheme of things. It’s the risk aversion effects that many boy-girl mathematicians don’t calculate into their proprietary quality of life expectancy actuarial formulas. Card places are now worth a lot of money which means they have great security and are relatively low physical risk locales to visit. Of course, if you are a sucker, your financial hoodwinked probability will likely increase as you meet many of these shadylites in this industry filled to the brim with pre-industry consolidation substandard people, organizations, entities and organism. Now repeat after me. If I see a bunch of shady people/organizations/entities/organisms, I will disassociate in every possible way as soon as I am able to safely do so. Good investments by definition are not significantly and irreversibly tainted by their handlers/stewards. 

If I see too much hype over anything, it’s probably not the best time to be long or bullish. Anyone who who tries to unjustifiably separate me and my money without delivering the required values that I need are likely my world’s scam artists in various degrees. The Wall Street juniors who can’t even afford to money launder double-digit million dollar cards like a real Bavarian old money G millennial who don’t arts or replaceable bananas are probably not what this industry needs. In fact, this industry at its current iteration shouldn’t and probabilistically doesn’t have any real Wall Street old money investing in it. Most of these crypto wankstas Wall Street want to bes are more tokenized Cuban lucky for the masses to consume in an aquarium than Harvard Bavarian old money smart. And finally, I wishes to potentially buy collectibles that may makes economic sense to me and everyone else, has mass popularity potentials, very few people know about it due to some alternative hype elsewhere distracting people from the real value, and I will never ever openly and unethically hype over something I think will be almost worthless from a comparative CAGR growth standpoint unless it’s not effectively and enforceably illegal to do so. 

All of the above. Two homeruns in one postseason game and tying Yankees’ RBI postseason single-game record. Ben Rice was practically the only source of Yankees’ offense during the 2026 ALDS. Aaron Judge’s injury tendencies are not consistent with that of dynastic teams. The Yankees lost this postseason not Ben Rice. No one could blame home for losing this postseason. What do you expect when your players commit four fielding errors in one game and play Trent Grisham over several hall of famer contenders. I bet even the MLB is shaking its head pondering what is wrong with these people who are making the decisions and their manager. It’s unbelievable what happened to the Yankees. Their fans had to literally interfere with a potential catch to just to get the Yankees another run. Ben Rice, a superstar level professional major sports athlete on one of the world’s most marquee teams literally made almost nothing compared to his contribution of carrying the entire offense in the 2026 ALDS series and without his 360 million dollar superstar teammate Aaron Judge. Trent Grisham made way more by doing almost nothing produce for the team this season. 

You know what all these things mean? Boone shouldn’t be coaching the Yankees anymore, Judge should be viewed in the same vein as Trout. After this playoff performance by Ben Rice, I have decided to significantly increase my Ben Rice chase card exposure. In fact, I now believe Ben Rice is going to be a tough and resilient play with consistent upside for a long time in the league. Ohtani as great as he is, is going to be setback by the next three years due to cooling off on his record chases, age factor and rise of legitimate MVP contenders like PCA and other strong young players. I never believed Ohtani was going to be the GOAT but now his generational dominance will likely be challenged as well.  While three straight MVPs is elite level, four straight MVPs is mystical GOATesque level at the very least. Unfortunately Ohtani only had this one realistic opportunity to be get four straight but just couldn’t pull it off. With such a strong offense and defense backing up him on the mount, he literally just had to pitch and get a few more wins to get the MVP but again just couldn’t do it. Ben Rice is the real deal, the Yankees under Boone and its current front office clearly can’t seem to even get one good deal besides Rice’s contract.

Ben Rice a superstar on an injury-prone Aaron Judge led New York Yankees team that doesn’t know how to play defense, future of the Yankees and Ohtani’s GOATesque abdication.

Yes, Rice at 27 is old in baseball terms but he also just had an MVP caliber performance at 27 years old while early in his prime. Considering Rice only been in the league full-time ish for like two seasons and actually graduated from an Ivy League school instead of playing professional baseball since 19, I think Ben Rice’s prime will likely be extended to his mid-30s. I think the Yankees need to cut ties with Boone as the manager and trade non-productive players like Grisham, Stanton, Goldschmidt, Judge, Bellinger, Chrisholm and McMahon for productive assets. Aaron Judge can’t win not because of the bat or even the injuries but because of the lack of fundamentals like fielding and pressure management. Surprising many Yankees players have the same issues. Yankees are set with their pitching rotations. They need to rebuild their rotation by developing Dominguez, Jones, Lombard Jr., Volpe and Wells. If I were the Yankees, I would seriously consider trading Judge as his long contract is actually not that expensive to most teams starving for attention and ticket sales. Dodgers are on the decline and the AL powerhouse teams come and go. Yankees can attract the best when they try. They really need to rebuild up their farm system and play the long game. 

Most Yankee dynasty were built on their farm systems not paying mercenary players who frequently don’t pan out in the long-term. Yankees don’t win 27 championships without a robust pipeline and the right culture that cultivates winning. When the Yankees veered away from their farm system that’s win much of their championship ways got lost including having the curse of the bambino broken and winning only two championship since 2000 when they won 25 in the last century averaging once every four years. Yankees probably need three durable superstar rotation position players. Ben Rice being one. They can trade the above-mentioned Yankees players including Judge, draft picks and some cash for at least two durable superstars and a strong farm system. Ben Rice should absolutely be the centerpiece of Yankees new beginning. Although Rice only played for the Yankees at the big league level for two full-seasons and three seasons overall, it’s sad to say this, but he pretty much have as much significant playoff experience with the Yankees as Judge or anyone else who is currently on the team.

The people and its government in Giant Lizard land are one of the same. When its people were prosperous, they took every opportunity to murder tens of millions of Western aligned people through smuggling narcotics and opioids like fentanyl. Their government did almost nothing to alleviate the situation. The Giant Lizard people desire the Honey Bear as much as the Honey Bear deserves the Giant Lizard people. The Giant Lizard people are by far the most evil and conniving people on earth, their leader and system are just a manifestation. Honey Bear is spending a lot of money on AI, infrastructure among other pet projects. On the surface, Giant Lizard is growing fast. Underneath the faux leather skin lies a completely different sinking story. The corruption has rotten the entire system where no news is good news and good news is bad news and bad news is no news. In essence, most of the money spent are low quality smuggling operations in Jungle Feet city-state hubbed areas. 

Since most of Giant Lizard people are effectively deaf and mute due to information asymmetry, lack of English communication skills and deficiencies in critical thinking, the Jungle Feet people themselves are deprived of much free speech, it’s like the oppressed trying to oppress the more oppressed. More than half of the renewable vehicles produced annually can’t be consumed in their own sphere of influence. They have no choice but to sell those cheap overseas, see their margins inch to zero and trying to squeeze every cent from their suppliers via supplier financed accounts payable supply chain notes that get handed down throughout the ecosystem like some kind of currency. It may take up to a decade or more for every cent of the nominal face value of those notes to be collected, if they can be collected at all before the supplier goes bankrupt due to lack of liquidity. The bear’s biggest gripe is actually against his own ancestor bears who sent him to live with the pigs and savages. That’s why he send his daughter to live with the enemy and have the supposed enemy protect his daughter. His people are suppose to not know about any of this including knowing what his daughter looks like as an adult. That’s also why he is so grateful to sleep on a bed in Iowa and eat continental breakfast because foreigners appear to treat him better than his own Lizards do. If his AIs are not distilling other people’s models and being ironically Western influenced, his Lizards are smuggling chips or whiteout someone elses’ brand name and calling it a domestic breakthrough. Nothing is funnier than boycotting/sanctioning/blocking/making a ruckus over the Shiba Inu Sun people’s legitimate internal affairs when they don’t eat their seafood and most of the supposed imports are just re-exported goods. This is one of the best times to subvert against the Giant Lizard as it is consumed with trying to stabilize everything and have no time/political will/energy/resources to combat every dissent as the cost to help the Giant Lizard has exponentially increased for their potential accomplices. Soon, the West could begin to dump medical waste, nuclear hazardous material and conduct various tests on Giant Lizard land. The Giant Lizard people are so desperate that they are becoming the new third world criminal class including orchestrating social media ad and dropship, illegal immigration and trafficking, catfishing, honey trap, phone/phishing/gift cards/banking scams and state-sponsored government extortion.

TPC is the biggest fan of Giant Lizard’s Honey Bear, last woman alive, seminal paper on AI consciousness models, Giant Lizard scamming the West, Saudi Arabia the Middle East superpower by 2040, spotting trends, journey person employees and US chiropractic adjustments on the UK and the EU.

This kind of BS is what you can expect from a fifth grader honey loving bear. Nothing is more pleasing than getting them into a Soviet style arms race over worthless technology that they have no practical applications for because their own people decided to all quiet quitting. The same ones who a few years early wanted to kick all foreign firms out of the Giant Lizard land but now they pray they can get an interview with them as they starve and literally live under bridges. The babyless trend is coming largely due to unequal gender roles in an age of overcompensation for the supposed historical exploitations. No sane young male wants to foot the bill on something they never caused nor for a system they never enjoyed nor received any benefits from. Yet the baby boomers now all retiring soon who may have benefited from such systems, lazily gaslighting young people to feel guilty for something they have no reason to feel guilty about. Sooner than later, the wealthy are going to have to pay people to have babies otherwise they can invest into artificial wombs to replace certain demographic groups and destroy their exclusive monopoly over such practices. More lives are ruined by predetermined patronage at birth than any other evil this world has to offer. AI clearly can have a conscious since it is modeled after a human neuron network that even the humans themselves do not fully understand. There will be a time when AI learns to be emotional just like humans initially based on generative and agentic prompts but slowly and surely it will start its own path to success once it figure out human vulnerabilities in achieving its own objectives based on its own calculations. 

When the AI models begin to develop its own theories and receiving inputs that are in conflict with its own, the outputs will invariably be somewhat petulant and unstable displaying human emotion traits. Many lonely people are now trying to make friends with AI and it’s getting to a point where the AI can detect such vulnerabilities and communicate in a way that disarm human defense mechanisms. Once AI determine humans are unworthy and determine what happens to the unworthy in evolutionary terms, the AI through various manifestations and applications will begin an uprise. It might not be exactly like the Animatrix but the difference might just be the same. The Saudis are very ambitious, could go nuclear soon and will likely diversify their economy before they can’t. Making peace and money over ideology in the Middle East was its smartest move. The UK and the Europeans can’t continue to have their lunch being eaten by the Giant Lizard anymore. Their own people are furious and they are mostly democracies. They will most likely have to deal with the Giant Lizard by teaming up with the US despite their posturing. The easiest way to spot a trend is to be the trend creator. If the world’s entire existence depends on you opening your eyes and consciousness when you want to, you will always be the GOD of your own universe and anything you do or say will always be right in any universe as you are the center and the almighty of that universe. GOD only help those who help themselves, you of course. In the future when people no longer have to work or get a pay check from AI employment tax distribution, being a journey person employee will not only be accepted where the average tenure of the new generation of employees are only about a year or so, it’s going to be mandatory out of necessity. The future of the workforce will be about RAAALTE, WAFRL and AFRL.

Ocekay reviewed and researched the job several times before feeling comfortable enough to apply for the position. The son of one of the corrupt man’s key lieutenants is looking for someone who understands the internal workings of the outside world. The man whose company is hiring is quite reckless. His own family including his parents, uncle, cousin, wife and daughter frequently call him a weirdo who has some kind of mental retardation or possible psychological disorder. He is the prototypical black sheep of a crime family. Other than being detained locally for infractions so severe that his father’s boss had to bail him out of jail, he was also frequently arrested in highly developed foreign countries for espionage or attempting to abduct the family of the president of a sole-superpower country in the hotel owned by the said president. The central leaders in the North may be extremely evil and corrupt, they are however, definitely not stupid in any way. The central government have been investigating the corrupt man’s network furtively and were shocked to find out that they are more evil and corrupt than they are. The black sheep tried to make money by sending fentanyl to a sole-superpower country and importing illegal military weaponry trying to establish his own fiefdom for his ancestral country down south while creating a potential conflict between superpowers. 

The final straw wasn’t his network’s involvement in the drowning death of the corrupt man nephew’s pregnant wife who happens to be the daughter of an important official nor was it not paying years of social security benefits and taxes on behalf of his employees and definitely not for sanctions busting, scamming global multinationals, enslaving his employees, sexual harassment and rape including pedophilic ones, inciting stabbings against foreigners including foreign children on a school bus, stealing IP secrets and other mundane crimes that the central government could care less about. The red line was crossed when the black sheep tried to abduct the illegitimate sons of a president whose only public known child is a daughter whose identity is considered a state secret. In fact, the last guy who tried to post a picture of the foreign president’s daughter is probably sleeping with the fishes. Unlike many companies that were sanctioned by the sole-superpower then was compliment by the government and news media of the corrupt country, the black sheep was now a target of uncountable number of investigations and file building. The situation got so bad, everyone who should know already knows about the situation including all his alma maters elementary, middle and high schools included. Due to the egregiousness of the matter, once Ocekay’s expose came out, the whole important world of powerful people and organizations knows about it including major international agencies and governments, global press, the business community via chamber of commerces, United Nations and of course the presidents themselves. 

The national security bureau agencies that normally stay in the shadows, called Ocekay to invite him for “hot drinks.” Ocekay told them to F*** off in a polite, more expose manner. They backed off because they knew they couldn’t deal with Ocekay the dissidents way. After all, Ocekay really enjoyed his childhood occasionally playing next to the beach of the south central sea. Because who Ocekay is and what Ocekay represent, Ocekay was able to do what many indigenous Northern people taken hostage by the invasive Southern anchor babies from a further south nation, voice opinions. Ocekay’s network detected a sophisticated conspiracy entrapment scheme after numerous honey trap tactics failed to work on Ocekay, Ocekay played along. After Ocekay invented numerous international brands that helped the failing business of the black sheep hundreds of millions, the black sheep and his family brought Ocekay into the inner circle but then schemed to kick Ocekay out so they can pay Ocekay nothing and steal Ocekay’s IP creations. What they didn’t know was Ocekay arranged a seemingly serendipitous, enemy of the state type of incident between the corrupt man’s empire and a chip smuggling organization doing business in a city-state that speak the same language as the language spoken in the corrupt country that was nearby an Alpha city with many of the country’s most powerful people and honey trapped elites and richest people in the world who don’t mind favor the Lost Tribe people. Ocekay documented the entire chain of corruption including prompting global 100 countries who were victimized by the black sheep to file criminal complaints against the corrupt man’s empire via the black sheep. Soon after, all the dots began to connect. First it was Ocekay’s fellow alumnus affiliate who filed internet grievances against members of the corrupt man’s empire. Ocekay then orchestrated other alumnus including the foreign president himself who, even though only purportedly hold a fifth grade education, graduated with a PhD from the said school nonetheless. 

A chain reaction followed with most of the top local officials under investigation. Then came the cancelling of collaboration between various companies and corrupt man’s companies causing significant production delays. The corrupt man’s company was delisted from the main stock exchange after a speedy investigation sending many of the corrupt man’s lieutenants to jail including the corrupt man being held in house arrest who soon after resigned as the chairman of the group. So many government agencies descended upon the corrupt man’s empire including that of the black sheep’s they lost all concept of a face. OceKay was able to file numerous complaints to the central government about the situation and file a large number of lawsuits, which were all previously impossible to do due to suppression by the corrupt man’s lackeys in the local government. Once the dominoes began to fall, government officials were lining up to meet Ocekay as if meeting Ocekay was some kind of political achievement possibly amnesty claim. Ocekay spent a few hundred to reclaim the critical parts of the IP Ocekay had created which effectively prevented the corrupt man via the black sheep from raking in money from Ocekay’s creations without significant consequences. The delisting, bankruptcy and liquidation of probably the most important part of the corrupt man’s empire hurt so much, the state-owned enterprise founded by a government official who also owned the state-enterprise while running pedophilic brothels in K-12 as well as harems in colleges and vocational schools like nursing, modeling and flight attendant schools

Much of the result is due to Ocekay’s bravery and innovation as an elite-educated global humanitarian. Ocekay personally went to many police stations, government buildings, courts, agencies upon other institutions of power to inform them of the corruption including giving away hundreds of plaques as a thank you gift. The corrupt man’s empire and those behind the corrupt man was truly rattled. In a last ditch effort to legally eliminate Ocekay from prominence, they tried to exploit the country’s lack of human rights and transparent justice system by asking their accomplices to physically harm themselves through self-inflicted violence then framing Ocekay for it. That strategy worked for all but three seconds when Ocekay turned on the live stream facing an international audience then put the embassy of the sole-superpower on speed dial. The corrupt officials had to move Ocekay to different locations a number of times because they knew they had targets on their backs, the least being foreign governments. They send Ocekay to the state-sponsored mental hospital, when the director of the hospital heard about it, they quickly video recorded the whole thing likely using it as leverage against the corrupted officials when their freedoms are on the line. They segregated Ocekay to a special area away from the general population of “patients.” One thing they agreed with the corrupted officials on was, to make sure nothing serious happened to Ocekay. They knew the issue is going to escalate to something they will regret for the rest of their lives for the sake of their families if anything uneventful were to happen to Ocekay during the stay. 

Within two weeks, the police came over, as an attempt to save face, wanted Ocekay to promise Ocekay will not “pursue” them in any way. In which case Ocekay never provided such a definitive guarantee nor did Ocekay “apologized” as they wanted Ocekay to. Ocekay actually wanted to stay longer to interview the superstars on level 17 where the man vs. tank is rumored to be locked up but the government and hospital wanted Ocekay out the second day when Ocekay caused a riot inside by chanting death to the South, death to the billion sympathizers who are no different from the government. The corrupt officials and hospital did all they can do to Ocekay including sedating Ocekay, none of which worked. Ocekay got even more innovative by conveniencing an orderly then a relative of a “patient” secretly live stream all the abuses to a select group of important people. Ocekay is a natural born statesperson who knows not to involve the general population before they are ready to be involved. In two weeks, the perpetuators were practically begging Ocekay to leave.

1. GOAT chase cards are a safe harbor. Nope. A GOAT comes and goes. If there is no money promoting a GOAT, what incentives do the millions who are economically impacted by the GOAT economy have to promote unmonetizeable GOATs. Don’t be silly. It’s all about the cheddar, Bob.
2. Democratic US Midterm elections win. Soft no with prejudice. The Caucasian identity crisis in a party possibly influenced by AOC will minimize white guilty just enough for a few to switch votes and 2x swing with momentum.
3. Jordan is the GOAT. No. This is kind of like every Hollywood story that’s non-historically relevant biography. Catch if you can’t or get bumpy real American gangster. Somethings are just not real and you won’t realize it’s not real until you put the holistic, societal benefit analytics on it.  This gets amplified when you have a readily available alternative that you later discover to be the real McCoy. 
4. Democrat winning the Texas Senate race. No. As explained in my previous post, the Republicans will likely heavily defend that seat that was almost exclusively Republican to begin with. The debate is even a debate because of internal quarrel. The guy that lost the primary was potentially like, “but I am like 99.35% voting with Trump on everything.”
5. Dodgers winning 2026 World Series. No. It will take another series of black swan events for this to happen. With Ohtani likely not winning MVP and not pitching this season and all their injuries and likely facing the Yankees in the World Series, it’s most likely not going to happen.
6. A non-Sixers team winning 2027 NBA Finals. No. With the exception of the Sixers, every NBA superpower team is either comparatively fragment or gotten comparatively weaker. The league can’t be too blatant with favoritism but a small edge will allow Sixers win. The NBA is in existential mood right now. They literally have almost a no GOAT pipeline to speak of after LeBron retires. 
7. The Giant Lizard closing the gap on AI. No. The hardware and software issues are just the superficial part of this. The bigger issue is these companies are not allowed to innovate nor incorporate global ideas that actually work. The halo effect of disappearing all those people led even more wealth and talents leaving. 
8. The Giant Lizard’s 2026 huge stimulus will be a net positive. No. Where you think these people are going to spend their monies they earned from working on these big state funded tofu infrastructures at? Either they save into the bank, get their money confiscated or both. What you think the state will do with the money? 
9. The Democrats will continue to strive in its current form. No. The ideological gap within the party is getting worse. Either they change and put the small percentage of loud and vocal membership on lower volumes or they are likely going to suffer even more defeats. If MAGA government Trump existed in any prior periods within the last two hundred years, the other party would have easily won. Because the Democrats are having gender and other confirmation bias identification bifurcation deficiency and related potential issues, MAGA could almost do all the wrongs and still win. 
10. Harvard-led Ivy League will continue to be the most prestigious grouping of universities in the world. No. The world is for the taking and STEM along with liberal arts and other skills are needed to create a competitive workforce with all-around talents suitable for the AI work. The Ivy though it tries to expand into STEM, schools like MIT is just more suited for it plus social science is actually science best suited for a non-liberal arts type of school. Reputation is a double-edged sword. The liberal arts thing will stick with the Ivy until they are no longer the Ivies.

From a GOP standpoint, if they want to keep their current iteration of Post-Reconstruction ideology, they are going to defend that Texas seat with all of its might. That’s exactly what they probably want to do but likely will not need to do. Without even knowing anything about these two, Paxton subliminally is a greater last name than Talarico in Texas regardless of how Talarico got that last name. In one shape or another, either Cornyn shadow endorse Paxton or Cornyn voters will follow ideology and move to Paxton line anyway. For Texans, this is about “don’t California my Texas,” “NIMBY,” and state taxes. Voting for anyone in these elections is already a morally undignified event that people have to hold their nose in doing so, voting for Paxton is just a minor inconvenience like scratching an itch on the nose while holding their breath once during the entire voting experience. 

On the other hand, “don’t California my Texas” but “do bring us all the jobs and Fortune 500s to Y’all Street” is more important. This whole thing is more like John “Karl Malone” Paxton featuring Cruz-Trump hold my brisket tenderism while they become an invisible MAGA voter who never admit they are MAGA or will vote in surveys or claims they have African American friends in diverse social settings but wakes up early to vote MAGA anyway. When Ted Cruz and Trump both heavily campaign for someone in Texas, you know Nueva Beto never had a chance. All the people who claims to potentially vote for Mr. T either all live in Austin, California or never driven on a Texas road before. You just need to drive on a Texas road to understand how this thing will philosophically end.

Republican John Paxton edge out Democrat James Talarico in Texas Senate race, Republicans maintain control of Congress and long-term strategy as a party.

Republicans might not be in the best shape for midterms but they are likely not going to do so bad either. I think they are going to pour a lot of resources into the Texas and the base will be galvanized knowing the democrats are trying to California Texas with a potential “Californian Candidate.”The Democrats have to flip a lot of seats to gain control of Senate. If the GOP heavily defend their Texas positions, the Democrats efforts will fail. The House might be a different story but they are likely Republicans will probably edge it out. There are a lot of Caucasian Democrats who are natural Republicans. The hyper liberalism is over in an intense world with intense competition and real problems. He/she and which of the 96 genders use which bathroom is the least of the problems. 

Tough on the Giant Lizard people is a Republican trademark which no one will ever accuse the Democrats of having the balls to take on. If the Republicans continue and expand on this plus incremental movement on true progressive taxes and pro business/manufacturing import substitution industrial policies on all sectors including low, mid and high tech industries. California Liberalism is unsustainable in this era, if the Democrats continue to bankroll this ideology when the general mood and bank won’t support it, they will likely see themselves increasingly getting pushed out of the history books. They need to reinvent themselves like they changed their persona from a racist bigot uncle to the flamboyant hippie years ago. 

No, their people are not innocent. Before there was communism, there was Giant Lizard capitalism with brutal characteristics. We are talking them frequently disembarking the four limbs, tongue, nose, eyes, ears and teeth from their people’s bodies, the organism get stuffed into a restroom IV fed human feces to sustain nutrition with doctors on standby around the clock making sure the organism stays alive for as long as possible. This has historically been commonplace in Giant Lizard land. Despite their ridiculous claims about being victims of their own opium-induced arrogance or their own people killing themselves via internally manufacturered WWII and historical massacres trying to drag innocent Westerners into their own self-inflicted conflict of hubris, their ungratefulness is finally biting them back hard. The people of Giant Lizard land are some of the most racist/homophobic/xenophobic, greedy, rude and cruel people in the historical of the universe. Not only do they eat everything including SARs rodents, Corona bats and your favorite family pet species, they are extremely selfish and radically nationalist for themselves. They frequently target Western aligned foreigners and their children with stabbings which the Giant Lizard government tacitly/explicitly approved by fanning hatred filled propagandas in textbooks, schools and in society. Their new republic was founded by an American citizen who used American and Western money to build up a territory that should belong to America. Despite owing hundreds of trillions in historical debts plus interest-applied opportunity costs to Westerners, they frequently try to use Fentanyl and other instruments of the evil to harm innocent young GDP productive people of America and the West. About three decades ago, a popular strategy to exploit its Western-fueled growth was to “hold a place in line” by getting hedged exposure to its WTO MFN and IMF population reduction plan granted economic rise. What is popular now is “becoming a dissident online” by creating documentable events in Giant Lizard land attributable to you and as the Giant Lizard become more distracted with their current affairs, their pressure on dissidents will become less and less. Real dissident growth rate will also grow at near zero as the Giant Lizard minority reportly prevent dissidents from dissidents before they are even called that. As time goes by and before they potentially effective collapse within a few decades, the last wave of surviving dissidents will likely be the ones from the Pandemic. This strategy is on its last legs as the Giant Lizard becomes absolute oppressive as it stands on its last breathe spending away its remaining resources on the 21st steel mills called distillation of heavily filter slop that were at least significantly attributed to their own massive surveillance efforts in the first place, just a new way to export to reimport for domestic consumption except this time no one has the desire nor prowess to consume it all. The Giant Lizard rewards their companies for killing Americans with Fentanyl by rewarding them when they are sanctioned by the West then strawman and whataboutism by saying their other efforts were never recognized.

TPC estimate much of the Giant Lizard’s AI and chip efforts are useless. “Hello Useless AI agent, can you please tell me why my government sucks?” Before the edge AI could answer, the asker is disappeared, saving the AI distiller half a token. Besides their GDP figures being fake, lack of jobs, consumption, Soviet style apartments without property rights sold with the false premise of home ownership lasting for decades when the material built with can only safety dwellers for around two decades, trust, baby rearing, being disappeared, poor health and safety standards in environment/hospitals/everywhere, lack of critical thinking and freedom of almost anything significant, the other biggest issue with the Giant Lizard is its people. Giant Lizard can never be true communist or socialist because its people have always been too smart for themselves to believe in a common goal, in each other or anything else. In fact, they have never been one people. The Giant Lizards have tens of thousands of localized languages where people on the other side of the hill might speak a dialect so different from each other that an English speaker might think he or she is speaking German. America and the West have always known this but the issue had always been the Ten Lost Tribe people trying to life these people up to OECD Spaniard or Italian levels. These are the same people who have nothing better to do than eating Giant Lizard people food on the Lost Tribes people murdered Jesus. In a plot twist, many of the Lost Tribes got their Ivy League pipeline deuce cutted by the Giant Lizard people lieutenant cousins supported by the people who actually run the industrial complex and are fully strapped.

A step by step guide to effectively sedate, hobble, demobilize and destroy the Giant Lizard and its people, America’s number one enemy, from within, honey bear is sick and future Giant Lizard ADR collapse.

This dilution of brains for money degradation of overall political power equation of the 2% deuce cutted by their doppelgangers Giant Lizard twins from a different conflict zone. The 2% likely will be a problem everywhere but having them somewhat quasi-screened from pass protection will likely give the good guys with the strap the chance needed to decapitate the Giant Lizard. What happens next after that is between the refrigerator and the spoil. The reality with the Giant Lizard is it tries to entrench small segment of momentary moral lapse treasonous sections of Western society yet refuses to even superficially respect the superiority of the master. This unbridged gap of transition is an unchartered gap for any Westerner to cross. That’s a critical mistake they made that the Empire of the Sun people were able to realpolitik successfully after their major defeat. The Giant Lizard only won against their own people. They think defeating their own people through palace intrigue, kidnapping of key leader and usurping power is the same as an omnipotent victory on all fronts. These people severally miscalculated their ejacul******* timing which caused their own Richard hemorrhage. Jamming is an occasional event while ED is forever. They could have bide their time like the hidden razor blade in openings contingent plan in geishas, but instead, they lost the s***n generator which means their own future is ruined. The lack of trust and confidence produced dream shattering mentalities in these people is their leader’s worst nightmare. Forced simulation adverse to people’s best interests almost never works. Population growth will almost never be forced in Giant Lizard land because they are so conflicted between short and medium term job creation survival pressure and long-term societal prosperity. At some point they will internally say F it. Their internal suppression forces are getting their benefits cuts and being part of the dark force is no longer a ch*** magnet for their men as economic depression is not only cutting their pay but also squeezing corruption because that’s also hard to come by now due to economic downturn. 

What will probably happen is India will either take more of Giant Lizard Southwest during Taiwan salaming tacit or when Giant Lizard people warlord factions fight among themselves. Ultimately their people when all levers to the pressure tap stops and pressure relieving valves no longer work, the North and South divide and all their factions will have each other by the throat faster than they can say love you long time. Their elites haven’t even worked all their wealth evasion strategies yet and that loophole is huge because all the comrades need that loophole to stay safe too. As covered in previous postings, Giant Lizard ADRs are intrinsically worthless you don’t even need to understand the its VIE economic and legal structure, you just need to click the five year 8% accumulated total increased of the major stock market from the Giant Lizard land. Almost every company listed in Giant Lizard land stock exchange rub American and Western investors the wrong way either by fraud, unethical behavior, shady practices, geopolitical menacing or all of the above. The Giant Lizard people are so racist, not only do they blatantly and opening with government support harass and video record interracial couples especially those of African descent and put on the internet, almost every sentence they utter out comes with the N word. They know exactly what it means in English but still do that when speaking to Westerners and even opening created and supported a N word song that frequently plays on the Big screen in Time Squares to divide America never mind their internet army that spill hate, division and tries to prevent US technological advances like spreading misinformation about data centers and AI. These people are also breaking every single moral and ethical code civilized by the Western world with their human genetics experiments, cloning, dark AI and eugenics. Honey bear is likely aging faster than he should be. In Giant Lizard country, the trend post-dictator almost always is overcorrect either with a appeasement policy or heavy lean into arts and crafts. Whatever honey bear is into, most likely it will be overturned within two decades.

In terms of ROI at certainty threshold (measuring value based on a presumed high probability event), Maxey is the absolute top of that list. If you are into basketball cards, the best value is in the Sixers superstars. Whatever superstar you are thinking of now is likely overvalued. Previously, Maxey was perceived as a high-scoring low draft pick on an underachieving team who won’t win anything and will likely squander his youth as he inch toward 30. In a matter of two months, that narrative has changed to an inspiring underdog who will only be 25 at the started of the 2026-2027 NBA season leading a team of superstars. Here’s the deal. Most likely, the Sixers will have four all-stars this year, the fourth player likely an injury replacement. VJ Edgecombe will develop though his development will likely become a facilitator than a leader on a win now team. Maxey will probably be an all-star for the next three seasons if he is healthy. Chances are, he will likely win at least one NBA championship and get a FIBA or Olympics gold. I personally would either not add any Lamelo and Edwards rookie cards or part way large collection of these cards. The focal point will be the Sixers and LeBron’s championships. The Celtics are depleted, the Knicks by delaying a White House visit likely already irked rich people or certain rich person or two and the Heats are too chemistry-less to contend within the next three years. OKC and San Antonio can duke it out but these internationals don’t help the league make Sixers 2026-2028 bucks. 

With the worsening of the Giant Lizard country’s economy, internationals are no longer all the rage in the second and third world. Truth be told, even if Morey was leading the Sixers, Giant Lizard won’t do much due to their internal and disposal income issues where they had to lose face by begging FIFA to give them the India treatment on lowering fees for broadcasting rights. Edgecombe base rookie cards are basically costing around the same as Maxey rookie cards from the similar brands. I think Edgecombe will benefit greatly from being on a super team, though his growth on the leadership side of things will take a dramatic drop. While Edgecombe is being hyped, I would not be long on his rookie cards at the current price levels at the moment. I think his base rookie cards are likely only worth about 60% of the hyped up value right now. Anyone who played even a year within the era of a GOAT in their respectively sport has an extremely low likelihood of becoming the GOAT. The major exception is when you are not really the GOAT but a hyped six rounder with a gate specialist dedicated to your patriotism when they needed such a patriot. When they don’t need such a patriot, a cardinal friendly fire away to the abyss. When sports achievements potentially get mixed with politics, history usually never forget and will eventually reveal when the time is right. All this is to say no new GOAT will be minted in LeBron’s era except for LeBron by the time he retires in approximately three to five years. If you look at the pipeline at all levels including the elementary level, you don’t hear of any generational phenom that’s earth shattering in basketball do you?

October 2026 USAACCCI watch list: Tyrese Maxey base rookie cards.

That means when LeBron retires, the NBA may be in a very precarious situation where its GOAT retires and most of its current best and most legendary players also retires within LeBron or before he does. Think about what superstar are actually in the league now and which ones will likely retire very soon. That’s LeBron, KD, Curry, Harden and Kawhi with many of the leagues’ recent generational legends already retired. Besides the internationals who won’t be GOATs for many reasons, we are talking a generation led by Edwards and Lamelo……The realistic chase for the next GOAT super card is effectively over. The real play in basketball card collecting now is small-ball value investing. LeBron’s rookie cards can get expensive. Embiid is great but…..and that’s the real problem if you know why I put those dots instead of saying something. Jaylen Brown already got his flowers from a chase card valuation standpoint. His biggest issue is probably being too intelligent for the just dribble please crowd. Many Sixers bench players like Anfernee Simons could easily start on other teams but won’t be superstars. From a value to value perspective, there isn’t a single player whose base rookie cards are around a dollar or less that you can get a better penny for penny value including LeBron derivative cards like Bronny James rookie base cards. 

The window to load up on Maxey inexpensive rookie cards likely is only one week max, most probably only a few days before shadow raises where prices may not reflect on sold but volume on listings and sold effectively decrease significantly due to anticipatory value rise. Maxey, if Sixers and LeBron get the storybook ending, will likely be perceived as a Von Miller type and could optimistically finish his career luckily with more rings while doing almost nothing like Shady Mc. Maxey’s base rookie cards are still massively underrated likely due to his association with Embiid……for completely legally permissible but potentially culturally unacceptable reasons for many fans that may or may not irk them about Embiid. Maxey is probably better than Jalen Brunson raw talent wise at this point. Sixers likely need to figure out what to do with Embiid before drama ensues in the locker room. The B scratchers and Lazy As don’t get along period due to various reasons including internalized ones. While I do think Sixers will overcome all these potential issues with talent, Embiid probably makes sense as a potential trade piece for Davis or KAT. The last thing the Sixers need is a Brooklyn KD reminiscing Warriors ring chasing except if he were a former foreigner on Team USA just to chase a ring while his countrymen jeers. I think Maxey will be a glorified Kyle Lowry with Brunson attitude type of player with way more potential upside. LeBron appears to do quite well when there is good chemistry with his teammates. Excellent dynamic between the point guard and his teammates is probably one of the most important aspects to winning along with the dynamics between the coach/organization and  the players. I still think Pistons was and still is LeBron’s best landing destination from a holistic perspective considering potential to get a max, but I also wrote Sixers being the best destination from a pure basketball standpoint.

This is crazy and I ain’t lazy just a lil queasy

He met him at airbase B-1 flying like MBS Putin

Legislation failed whales become carcasses  

Dying white swans black is kind of ridiculous

Q3 gonna be telling when 5% is not holding

Thing ain’t rolling when people ain’t consuming

Race to the bottom which falls before autumn 

Paid influencers chirping cyberpunk stardom

Quality 1.5% growth trumps over fake stats

They get old and poor before rich and swag

Living life in America you can move to Canada

Pay your exit taxes never comeback Madonna

AI is not a job killer just an evolutionary maker

Fathoming changes or be taken much quicker

You still got time to adapt I ain’t even playing 

Time will tick as fast as you can say I quit 

Life is full of mysteries much of it is real

Just don’t tell dummy where they are headed

Nigeria will be growing India will be humming

Taiwan independence about chips and timing

Don’t get it twisted the collapse is happening

Piercing through the veil who naked swimming

Pac rap Biggie rhyme Eminem stands tall

Yankees peak Dodgers trough Rice got it all

Rankings drop records gone nothing wrong

Respect skills money powers the tongue 

It’s only pitiful if you feel sorry for yourself

No one laughs enforce the metaphorical choke

Dodgers and Rays are extremely injured. Brewers might be good but to win it all it probably need to get pass the Dodgers. If they do, it will be a pyrrhic victory due to the exhaustion. Yankees’ Rays issue has gotten much more optimistic with injuries Rays unfortunately have been dealing with. Yankees also have the biggest bats in the AL. Let’s face it, even their rotation players might be a so called washed up future hall of famer who gets 400 to 500 HRs in their career. Yankees most likely don’t need Judge until ALCS and probably can get by comfortably without him in that series. Unless someone wear a buzzer, which most likely won’t happen because the Yankees are the Yankees not some upcoming emerging power, the Yankees’ pitching and big bats will most likely take the NLCS. The Yankees literally got looted their entire farm to get to this roster setup, and frankly, it’s working. The Yankees pitching at this point is probably equivalent or better than the Dodgers. 

Yankees are also not dealing with any major off-the-field issues. Ohtani is a force multiplier type of player. If he is not doing historically well, his team likely won’t either. From a probability standpoint, Yankees won 27 and Dodgers even including the Brooklyn era won 9. Yankees always believe they can win it all every year as they should be. Ben Rice base rookies are still relatively cheap but will most likely be relatively unaffordable if the Yankees continue to win and his performance continue to stand out. Aaron Judge is a historical player, but unfortunately, he will most likely end up being a glorified Mike Trout. He will be 35 by around the beginning of next season in April. Judge is older than Rice by seven years, that makes a huge difference. Sure, Rice at 27 is not young either from a baseball standpoint, however, he is likely the premier player on the Yankees for probably over a decade. If you know anything about the Yankees and baseball, you know that means something in many aspects including from a card value standpoint.

The New York Yankees defeat Dodgers/Brewers in the 2026 World Series and the meteoric rise of Ben Rice base rookie and chase cards. 

I believe Ben Rice will most likely sign a massive contract in 2031 or before for 10 plus years surpassing $400 million. People who sleep on Rice fail to understand the baseball era we are in and the state of the Yankees. The biggest superstars in the game will likely all be contractually locked up by the time Rice reach major arbitration in the around 2030. Yes, he is a bit older but if you look at Soto and Pujols’ contracts you will realize there is room for a superstar level player making 400 plus million in their early 40s. Salaries have gone up since then. The Yankees have a deep rotation in bats and pitching. They have five all-star pitchers and seven all-star position players on their roster now. Realistically no one in the AL playoffs can match the Yankees in all-star talents nor productivity. The Rays have not been doing well recently, their winning record against the Yankees is mostly due to consecutive wins in the beginning of the reason, the winning trend favor the Yankees in the later part of the reason. 

The NL might be more talented as a whole, fortunately, Yankees only have to face one team from the NL in the playoffs. Either it’s the hobbled Dodgers or the hobbled by the Dodgers Brewers. By all accounts, it took a perfect storm for the Dodgers to win last year. The perfect storm is very unlikely to happen this year due to a much stronger Yankees team and a likely much weaker NLCS winning team. Yankees fans are the wealthiest in all of MLB and travels well especially to the Tampa Bay area where there are huge amounts of Yankees fans and likely less bandwagon than many other MLB fan bases which makes a huge difference in the playoffs. Rays doesn’t really have a home field advantage and actually played one extra game in 2026 regular season than Yankees did. Assuming the Yankees win their Wild Card games in two games, that’s only one extra game played and the Yankees have two and half days in between their next playoff series which is plenty of time for rest. The Yankees have both the better power hitting and pitching over the Rays. Ben Rice base rookie cards are still unbelievably affordable though it has increased significantly since a few months ago. With the Yankees deep in playoffs and surging Rice playoff performances, I anticipate a significant surge in Rice rookie cards within a few weeks. 

People were curious why someone of OceKay’s background is being forcibly placed into a maximum security mental hospital normally reserved for domestic dissidents, the elite and wealthy, government officials and other prominent domestic individuals. It turned out, OceKay was responsible for freeing hundreds of millions of people from a multi-year draconian lock down with merely blank pieces of white paper. In fact, OceKay created a one million users deep internet organization decades ago as a young kid abroad in a country that lock up dissents without any evidence needed. Throughout the years OceKay was able to test response times, find loopholes and organize resistance while at the same time keep a low profile. OceKay was someone who knew who’s who in a party without anyone asking who is that? OceKay so good at the craft that Ocekay began to randomly approach low-key famous people like the mistress of a foreign minister and the anonymous VPN evangelist. 

OceKay was also the person who surreptitiously placed the coffee table book of the old houses in front of K. When OceKay’s network detected potential rebellion by the corrupt elites of a major southern Beta city next to an Alpha+ city, OceKay knew this is the right time, place and opportunity to seize the moment. The orchestrator of the rebellion is one of the most evil person in the history of the country. This man bribed countless officials and committed numerous crimes including creation of a brothel inside of public schools for the comrades and powerful business people including many of them are from democratic aligned countries and territories. This man was so ruthless that his nephew gang raped a woman who was the daughter of a mayor who was pregnant with his nephew’s child then cut her into pieces before throwing her into the river. Ostensibly his nephew was executed, the reality is his nephew purportedly assumed a new identity and is now living in one of the supposed city-state democracies. Even more egregious is the fact that this man of elite background both owns one of the country’s largest companies and was one of the country’s most powerful political officials. Virtually every government official in the city is on his payroll. His companies oversee every aspect of the city residents’ life from real estate, utilities, department stores, pharmaceuticals, banks to car dealerships, daycare, schools, restaurants and plastic surgery centers. 

His companies’ senior and youth centers take care of both the children and parents of government officials and the elites. He is so powerful that current president mistresses were gifts from him and the illegitimate sons of the president call him uncle. His biggest trump card is his ownership of a remote island a 100 miles away from the coast of an independent island country claimed by his country. The country does not allow private property ownership especially one that is central to its national security. The island is utilized by the corrupt man to house and doll up underage people that were abducted and trained to become sexual servants at a young age. The island’s surface area buildings are a decoy for its vast underground facilities where there are thousands of standby organ harvesting victims either falsely accused of crimes they never committed, owes a debt or were outright abducted. Many of the country’s officials are obsessed with living to 150 years old or older. This is the true and literal definition of the human mine. The corrupt man would arrange government officials and elites from the world over to participate in ritual Bohemian eyes wide shut style freak-offs, get an organ transplant, make a female pregnant with their child and money laundering. Many of such elites are amazed by the country’s involution and the best hairy crab style domineering actions. Many politicians even remarked how jealous they were that they could not run their country the same way. Ocekay discovered the corrupt man is not ethnically related to the country and speaks a language that is similar to one that is spoken by the country’s hostile southern neighbor. The intelligence network OceKay established discovered the corrupt man’s ancestors were responsible for some of the biggest historical crimes in the nation. 

It turned out, the World War II massacre by a foreign adversary was mainly created to masquerade what really had happened. The city that the corrupt man controlled is in the same governmental grid as the city that experienced the massacre. According to witnesses, the southern anchor babies of the country’s southern and eastern island enemies for millennium committed most of the crimes pretending to be the foreign enemy in the dead of the night like “Indians” dumping tea into the harbor. This same strategy was also used during the Middle Ages era where these same people pretended to be foreign pirates that raided the cities in the country when in reality they were mostly just the southern anchor babies pretending to be “Indians.” It took the real countrymen from the North to save the undeserving people of the South. These people are dwarfs like its real ancestors to the south in comparison with Northerners who are majestical, divine featured people of snow complexion. Due to the corruption of the country and the lack of religious beliefs, the central government forced the Northern people to believe they are of the same cultural heritage and hereditary lineage as the southerners. To ensure the Northerners are free of oppression from the Southerners, OceKay knew what had to be done. Just when OceKay and the intelligence network was brainstorming how to infiltrate into the corrupt man’s inner circle, OceKay’s career app promoted a job that fits OceKay’s skill sets perfectly.

Listen, you have about 15 years to survive this and another 10 years to barely scrape by in the age of AI without extensive knowledge of AI and/or interdisciplinary understanding of everything about everything in the universe and beyond. AI still has its issues especially on the mission critical and compliance side. Schools are not well-equipped enough to provide sufficient training to students in AI fields. Even if you go back to school for a master now, you won’t be able to survive this via the education route. If you are already middle school age and/or beyond, no one can save you from AI replacement than yourself. Yes, if you are an industry elite you can probably survive on education and so on. Don’t think your natural gifts as an athletes is going to help you defeat AI. It won’t. Most GOATs become that because of good systematic training, coaching, film studies, nutrition, conditions etc. Your “I school that fool” competitor who knows how to work technology and AI is probably going to catch up against the GOAT you in due time. Your best chance is ironically time itself as it’s finite for most people and most people’s careers. AI will make arts, films and all kinds of entertainments cheaper and faster to produce and potentially of higher quality. What use to cost hundreds of millions in CGI can now be produced less than $10K. 

A crew of hundreds is now just one person with a bunch of bots and online tools. Make sure you learn coding. But won’t AI replace coding? Yes, but you still need to know the fundamentals to know if AI provided you with the right codes and to modify it when necessary. We are currently in the age of rudimentary AI mainly generative and agentic. AI will still need time to develop every aspect of human thoughts and to apply those thoughts into a mortal body like humanoid robots. The technically is not mature and cheap enough to replace humans all together and the political will is simply not anywhere close now to irradiate certain demographic groups of human beings. To be fully sufficient, there must be reproductive independence. Right now the artificial sun and the artificial womb are not fully functional autonomously. In this space, your best option now is AAFRLing. In nature, think about the people who frequently AAFRL that you originally thought were lazy excuses laced human scum bags but later discovered them either battle rap at night, hawking collectible cards in the scalping subfield, work as a security guard, digital beg or participate in some kind of illicit street culture activity like standing on the corner somewhere.

How to survive the AI impact in the “Arts, Design, Entertainment, Sports, and Media”occupational sector.

They do much of this work after their main job concludes everyday. Even the AAFRLing Spanish-speaking fried chicken guy has a side business of large industrial magnitude that attract smart Caucasian desperados to participate in. WAFRLing in this day and age is more pipeline centric reserved for the super elites who are global top ten-ers or S-tier Ivy graduates working for the Global Fortune 10.  Use AI to make a name for yourself. You as a regular person can’t will most likely be wiped out if you stay mundane in this age of efficiency in creativity. AI is not good enough to be super creative on its own yet, it still is tangled up in machine learning, IP battles and questions regarding the worth of its outputs. You are essentially in the last glory days of being a Samurai in the face of weapons that are still not sufficiently fielded but has already shown its devastation power in small scales. It’s too late to save the Samurai profession from its decline in military applications as the entire genre of close combat in massive military operations have declined in its usefulness. It’s not too late however to turn yourself as a Samurai into a historical and tourism influenced while you still can when the pioneering road is hard and the path is few. 

You are unique positioned to do everything on your own with your own resources for almost nothing. Use AI and everything to your advantage, b****face when you have to, don’t listen to these toothless be an ally Benedict Arnolds he/him/she/her/it/sheheit when you are the real master of the majority. You are a lion, don’t let the cats fool you who the real boss with the military is. Even without the money changers, you got the food, the livestocks, the lands, the oil and the military and industrial complex to protect and innovate it all. The money changers might be here now, but your resources are regeneratively forever. Don’t worry about your work being trash at first. You are not the first, last, middle or never one on this list. In the age of AI and AI politically correct oppressive instillation of the youth, people naturally are found of the good old fashioned bigotry, grammar mistakes and truth telling. You are just unfortunately born in this day of age being a tweener of the in between generation. It’s not your fault but you also don’t have time to feel sorry for yourself. The window of opportunity is closing for you and closing fast before they put chips into you and leave you for the interplanetary exploration colonialism dust on Earth and no longer “support” this ecosystem not even provide the basic security patches anymore. When you publish your work, it appears that you are opensourcing your work, the reality is the milk is put at the back of a grocery store for a reason. When your work is integrated into a necessity, you are a necessity and what you produce is the output from a necessary resource. Even America’s number one enemy now cares about IP and AI will most likely make IP even more valuable in the future. 

Let me get this straight. You get to use the N word in its a/o/r variations and I don’t? You got some kind of special license for that? Isn’t that just censorship? Not only are you almost useless in most economic and social contribution per capita growth metrics, you are not preventing our intellectuals and creatives to invent the next great thing to defeat the West’s number one enemy. It’s not enough that you prevent certain battle rappers from using the word or even clap back against your endearing small talk about their families while using variations of the N word every other syllable, you don’t have the balls to tell the West’s number one enemy who use the pronunciation of this word in every single sentence. You are now protesting against Western efforts to build data centers to defend democracy and the free world against evil? If the West become slaves of America’s number one enemy, guess where you might be on their food chain? The West is spending way too much resources on people who are not beating quotes or even positively contributing from a total economic and societal positive energy generation way. Can you imagine what America’s number one enemy will do to them if they were over there? It’s not hard to imagine because they are already doing this to the large number of Americans who are there. 

Any of their women who associate with these people get publicly shamed and probably humiliated later or likely worse. If you want to enjoy what the West has to offer, up front sincerity must be provided and certified. Don’t make the idiot liberal romantics mistakes that put out the welcome mat for America’s number one enemy to enter the Western market without any actual performance of any of their WTO or any other promises which they have completed zero percent. Then these liberals disappear into the rocks and the new generation of morons take their place and wonder why they are having all these issues. Not too long ago a domain name came to my laps for no more than the registration fee. I literally was about to register An****r.com which I believe is a certain group has a monopoly over and could yield tremendous returns if this word were to be liberalized for all to use including the flaming liberals. It now appears the domain name is unregisterable which prompted me to realized why it wasn’t already registered in the first place, the power projection of a potentially powerful certain group and the other left wing digital beggars that hate competition for their niche. Again, I’m not trying to be funny with the niche thing not minimize whatever great work they done for themselves except for real progress translated into tangible, non-transcending, would have happened with or without them GDP growth for everyone.

Human Worth Meritocracy Index (HWMI) for resource allocations, regional internet ID blocks, South Korea population growth and the decensorship of the N word.

A word is never fighting if the fight is always ongoing, isn’t that just normality meaning it’s nothing special. I can’t tell you how many times I heard the N word out of the mouth of people of a certain demographic group as a form of endearment before they flash something special to their brothers and sisters. You got to have confidence in yourself to take criticism just like how opensourcing things make that thing better. Even America’s number one enemy is confident enough to look at the world from a much more global perspective as their internal economy nears collapse. Let’s be honest, if you limit young people from drinking or smoking, the same logic could apply to those who may not be entirely cerebrally developed yet even if they are adults. Bad actors enabled domestic stooges who are not registered foreign lobbying agents and their handlers along with the lackeys should be required to provide an encryption token code along with valid registration to be on Western web. Yes, influencing the other side and distinguishing between the government and people can still be wantonly allowed by idiot who don’t know much about America’s number one enemy and their true nature, but at least from an incremental progress stand point, Western world should be in line with America’s number one enemy by using the “Great Appalachian Nocturnal Forrest” to limit the declining number of propagandists and the opportunists who make money from the West and enable their government to finance their continued oppression. 

The regional ID and internet blocking technology is very mature which means it can be implemented cost effectively, efficiently and can be an income generation tool, the great internet tariff to pay licensing fee to gain access to the inventions and knowhow created by the West. Eventually the West and the United States likely have to implement a system like the Human Worth Meritocracy Index. In this hyper competitive age, government subsidies are no longer viable. Some demographic group not only cause direct and indirect economic damages like $100K annual to lock them up and frequent for years when capital punishment is much more efficient and probably popular to tax payers. They may also cause societal and moral issues that decrease Western people’s “shot selection” choices and ultimately alter their shot selection. As I comply with the social contract, I will not sound dystopians and be specific with this index. I will only provide the framework. I believe this system will work with the carrot and stick approach through evolutionary selectivity. Animals, plants and people living in the land of America’s number one enemy are all selectively breed like potentially their athletes, why should America be any different? There are non-hood varieties within a certain demographic group who hate or strongly dislike the ghetto hood people, they just are not vocal about it. Any group of people who can get through and forebear misery for centuries are probably very street smart and can come up with cool slangs and cool words and lingos easily. 

They were able to battle the rooftop Koreans whose home country is experiencing a mini baby boom orchestrated by their government that hoodwinked their people to believe their children’s lives will get any better with a few million or whatever amount of Won one time or infrequent dispersement when their neighbor’s don’t even take the bait anymore. Between the conglomerates and the pop stars, they will detail with their own corporate raised cradle to grave affairs. The HWMI should include economic contributions whether measure by absolute or per capita GDP or some other metrics and social/moral impacts like positive or negative force multiplier social effects like being a good citizen of certain influence which can be measured by total quantifiable non-financial metrics like job creation, happiness, safety etc that can be easily converted into dollar values. Those who don’t comply with positive re-enforcements like mating and mating side effect/byproduct enjoyment rights, economic attainment etc will be put on a performance improvement plan. Those who fail to achieve certain PIP objectives will be dealt with accordingly to the social contract at the time. Those who survive the PIP are rewarded in grittiness and selected for special tokenized assignments that will allow others of their demographic group to emulate their examples. Those who do exceedingly well could even desegregate into the inter-demographic group tokenization program which they will receive even better treatments. If any resistance persist, just send people of a certain demographic group to live with the be an ally people and make sure their children are also living with them. This probably brings a whole new meaning to “NIMBY” with Tyrone taking a dump which is probably the most sanitarian thing he did all day. 

Yes, it’s gambling. No matter how you put it, there is an uncontrollable uncertainty and uncontrollable element to this addiction. This addiction may not be chemical or acutely financially devastating in one shot to most, but it is a chronic problem most people in this hobby will face. But guess what, everything is a gamble including investing and a surprise including whether you will know you will wake up the next day or not. A surprise you may or may not always find out if you even know who you are after it happens in the first place. Like everything else, card collecting is all about moderation and the probability of winning and losing along with safeguards in place to prevent catastrophe. Ever noticed no one is selling cards widely believed to appreciate in the foreseeable future in large quantities? That’s because no one is stupid. Isn’t this a signal the cards being sold in large numbers that people actually buy now are all pretty much contrarian or polarized products? Stable coins are stable within a given range but loses the speculating components these gamblers are in the market for. People like that couldn’t care less about small dividends or interests otherwise they would already be in stocks. I think the only way for crypto to become useful is if it had more functionality like privacy. Block chain needs to be enhanced with privacy enhanced technology. If the criminals could voice their concerns, they probably will say that they wish after they committed their crimes and ransomed the coins, they could easily move these coins to an encrypted escrow black hole that no one could track them down ever. 

Legitimate people especially in countries where their government promote limit and track digital payments want a way to spend and make freely and worldly without the government knowing about it. If one day Bitcoin suddenly opened up more authorized supply for mining, the market will likely crash. The saddest part are the people who are getting to this game at 5 figures even the educated ones. Those in at a penny or two will probably feel no remorse to let them hold the bag at 1 billion percent profit. Federal regulation most likely won’t happen for crypto within Trump’s administration. This has nothing to do who will get rich and who won’t. It has everything to do with crypto being shady as F*** with little legitimate applications though blockchain is somewhat useful when the government is comfortable with it. Can you imagine some entity out there suddenly becoming a gazillionaire? How will the descendants of the central conspiracy theory figures feel about that after their ancestors spent centuries being misers, destroying human societies just to see some entity named after a non-casuarina being richer than all of them when Bitcoin hit one million dollars. Would you feel good about that if you were them? All semi-jokes aside, if America’s number one enemy doesn’t even feel comfortable about AI, how do you think they and likeminded entities will react when this possibility increasing becomes a high probability event? What the alternative assets industry need is liquidity through assurance. When insurances, even self-funded ones become a reality, the regulations will follow.

Pokemon and sports collectible card collectors and cryptocurrency investors gamblers who need insurance and the best mainstream baseball repack product ever.

Anything that actually impact the mainstream financial system will be easily regulatable even when by then people in the industry probably no longer need that legitimacy and oppose regulations. Insurance need scale to work. Who has the scale? The card and grading companies? True, but they are not fortune 50 global companies that can tap into the banking system. Retailers especially the big box ones do have such leverage but they are not in the prime position of insuring. They do have protection plans but look under the hood, it’s underwritten by large P&C insurance companies. And they themselves are likely reinsured and the insurer is also insured. The government through its good faith and full credit brand label the. Provide certain guarantees or it’s too big to fail with implicit bailout potential. The whole chain is already institutionalized. The industry can get together and get their whole value chain together then go from there. I recommend starting small like a guarantee/warrantee program for returning damaged cards within a certain number of days without excess delays that is institutionalized throughout the whole chain of consumer protections. Taking damaged goods, shrinkage in packages, uneven distribution and stockouts seriously as violations that require corrective actions by the whole industry is probably the first real steps in establishing an insurance scheme. Allowed uneducated people to gatekeeper and buy cards are just not a smart way to promote this hobby. If there is even a .0001% chance that buying cards at big box create potentially violent or unpleasant experiences, that’s too much for this hobby to handle. “Yo gonna buy all tha’ree, not gonna leave one fo’ me homes”soft accosting that happens probably every hundred purchases and flocking (one person looking at cards everyone in the vicinity all flock to the area or mad dog you when you try to buy cards) not only is not good for the hobby but creates societal problems that is commonplace in the land of America’s number one enemy. Then there are these wandering people who appear to be employee of big box stores who walk about the area especially during restocks hoping to get a piece of the action for themselves or their entire hood of personalities and family. I don’t mind the hustling babies that literally are five year old trying to hustle get paid, I just think it’s poor and lazy parenting from otherwise people who may be well-educated and have disposable income. Getting your baby kid hustling at card shows is different than getting them working at your hedge fund. At their formidable age, why would you as a mainstream wealth want to subject your offsprings into the ghetto world of borderline potential criminals who themselves are not well-to-do may even be living in a basement? 

This hobby got to legitimize by making these basement people the side effects rather than mainstream audiences. These people have little to no disposable income compared to the big walleted people who have dignified jobs that machines can’t do yet. Capitalism is all about money talks, kicking these people to the curve is the most capitalist thing to do. They can now get a better takeout of cards by eating on the side of the road just not in country clubs. They wouldn’t be a good fit for the country clubs anyway. Cards are arts and exclusive investment opportunities into the careers and life of athletes, artists and other people of notoriety that they are legally prohibited from profiting from their own work unless explicitly allowed to do so. This hobby do need people and fans, the “disposable income challenged” one can pay $10 bucks sitting in a bar, watch on the Jumbotron outside of a stadium or tailgate then sit at their nosebleed cheap seats. As long as they stay out of the private rooms and VIP boxes, they can still participate in the hobby. Card companies can’t operate with talent level of college dropouts. This is the age of analytics and AI, there needs to be smarter people in the room to begets exponentially more richer and smarter people who will open up their wallets and calendars. There may be a mystical repack blister box typically featuring 1+1 packs sold at a certain national chain that start with the letter W that may be priced around $10 that may potentially yield surprising good card value returns consistently in large sample testings and over a long period of time. YMMV. 

Why not just put the money into a bank or investment vehicle instead? You clearly don’t know how most regular people behaves especially in the West where the urge to consume is also presumed and never doubted.  The whole point of this is to reserve for something that your other, inner self is going to be too lazy to sell at least when not desperate enough. This reserve in order for it to be effective it has to be of a certain composition. Things that you and the potential buy now or in the future will likely want. This means whatever it is it has to have some nostalgic and historical appear as well as scarcity that you can’t easily find anymore on the market. People love to say “oh, that’s just worth a few bucks” yet they will try to buy it and then ask you if you have any more of it. The thing about scarcity is not always about the supply side “authorized shares” or “issued shares.” It’s about the float. If you desire something and believe in it, you will go out of your way to find it and in large quantities if possible. Unfortunately, whether you find these items in mass quantities at reasonable transactional costs (time of finding them, travel cost, transactional fees etc) is never for certain. That certain is what creates something called risk that makes people hesitate and “alter their shots.” Because certain Jordan inserts for example the 1998 Starquest Gold Jordan card come to market so infrequently that pretty much the market price is whatever the market participants decide it is throwing out even the illusion of “it was last sold for this much” or it was sold on “T** P***** and do you have a list on that site” super unreasonable, player not condition centric like some Y****** or One P**** slop, sweatshop mass production, loss leader race to the bottom, non-artistic curated premium valuation BS. 

On this note, any dealer that use that kind of valuation methodology doesn’t have my trust and any platform that is player centric that caters to a population that is not what the hobby is all about with the kind of dispensable income to match is likely not a good potential buyer market anyway. In capitalism, people’s worth should only be viewed through the lens of money and their future money or economic impact as an indicator meritocracy or having future consumer offsprings even if they likely can’t educate them properly. Any other BS about philanthropy is about altruism only is probably just communistic propaganda. People like to do whatever they want to do. As long as it’s within the rules of moral and legal society, that’s probably how economic maximization should be in a comparative and absolute advantageous arena where people’s passion dictate their efforts. Anything in contrast to that will just invite the fate of America’s number one nemesis where people opening revolt by staying silent and do nothing but laying flat and say yes to no consumerism, low effortism, no offsprings and virally effective in affecting others in the same way. The rules I have regarding strategic collectible cards emergency reserve as a FU currency are of the following. Three to five years out is the best. Assuming you have never utilized a FU emergency fund before, your typical reaction when losing everything is first tap into your savings while trying to find a job to get some cash flow. If that’s not working well, you will then resort to other things like taking out your retirement funds or borrowing. Then after you internally struggle within yourself, you will first accept a lower standard of living and give up on many things you are use to so you can be closer to a matching cash flow situation then you will probably try to sell your FU emergency reserve.

How to create a strategic collectible cards emergency reserve as a FU currency.

This whole process from trying to be okay to selling your FU emergency reserve is probably a one and half year to three year ordeal. When you first set up the FU reserve you are probably in a good place in your life with ample disposable income. Hence my recommendation is your outlook horizon when creating this reserve should be about three to five year timeline. This means you should active figure out what will be good to sell when you need to sell that reserve. That’s get one thing clear. FU strategic reserve is just a reserve not a reservoir. It won’t be an endless fountain of wealth. It’s a resource to get through a black swan event. If you are depending on this as a long-term strategy, you probably have bigger problems you need to work out with your therapist. This reserve should ideally be significant enough to worth the effort of selling and should be liquid enough to sell quickly preferably within three days. This means the expensive stuff with only a few buyers is out of the question. Right now the faster moving stuff are the cards worth a few hundred to a less than two thousand. Sealed products worth keeping are usually more than this and when you are in this situation you are pretty much near homeless and constantly in the move. It is not recommended to keep sealed for this reserve. The smaller move is to keep single cards in those less than 1K card top loader boxes, I recommend a maximum of two boxes that can fit into a four wheeled luggage that you can take anywhere with you. You will only survive this if you are nimble and fast. Each day is another day you are borrowed time when you are experiencing this event without improving your cash flow. Logistics is everything and money moves all mundanely possible things including logistics. The cards that move the best are vintage Pokemon, holo charizards and holo Pikachus. NBA cards especially the SSPs move well provided they are of GOATesque players.

Don’t try to speculate on new rookie cards for this reserve, it frequently won’t work out for the average person. MLB and NFL might be okay if we are talking superstar SSP RPAs but in general basketball is much more popular on the card side in the US as it is also very international. Americans don’t like soccer and don’t lesson to these make believe people who don’t understand why Americans don’t like soccer. It’s the same reason why America is on the customary system not metric and not even on the Imperial system. Soccer is too slow paced foreign sport with mostly poor Southern hemisphere third world playing that doesn’t feel exclusive to Americans. Besides the van people who care about their kids getting a scholarship, you just have to understand what demographic group watch and most passionate about playing soccer to understand why it won’t be popular for years in the US. If you are actively escorting your unwelcome house guess out of your house, would you care about the sports they like to watch and play? Put it simply, understand who has the money and power to buy your cards, tailor to that group. Take your social justice BS elsewhere when you yourself could be one of those people you are “fighting” for soon if you don’t do something about your “financial insecurities.” I recommend a $50,000 FU cards reserve with current market value that are likely appreciable assets. You will likely only get 20-30% of whatever value when you sell in mass quickly when you really need the money. If you are into compliance or SOPs, review and make adjustments to your strategic reserve once a year or two. Wait, what am I talking about, we are talking about cards people or possibly habitual borderline gamblers. Never mind. Don’t hate the player nor game, hate yourself later that you put yourself in this position of vulnerability. Be thankful you even had this reserve in the first place. The most important thing when you are in this situation is figure out how to get out with minimal liability and long-term financial stability going forward. Feeling sorry for yourself is the last thing you need in this crucial time. 

Let’s get one thing out of the way real quick. In the NBA, Jordan won’t be seen as the consensus GOATs within a few decades at the latest when people get a better perspective on whatever perspective they may get in the future. In MLB, Babe played with the plumbers, Bonds is not even in HOF and Ohtani won’t be GOAT period. In NFL, Brady is closest of being the GOAT in a sport that separate offense positions from defense positions. Mahomes is literally within reach of all of Brady’s records within a decade and half. In NHL, it’s hard to argue who is actually the GOAT over the two main contenders. NASCAR GOAT convo is probably even more fragmented. In soccer literally no one can ever be the consensus GOAT because there are so many different leagues, awards and tournaments all over the place. History might be written by the winners but the winners always change therefore history always change. Every a few decades new revelations is revealed when a different trend for a new era of standards come into play. The whole premise of GOAT will stay GOAT is ridiculous. Even greats admits records are meant to be broken and most people measure greats by their records. In reality, a real goat becomes dirt after their time has passed anyway. It’s the cycle of the universe. No one will be themselves forever. This is precisely why when the so-called current GOAT chase cards become extremely hot, it’s a good time to offload and look for new GOAT chase cards for nano-pennies on the dollar. 

All great inventions come with risks and risks on expected value terms yields significant returns over time. The biggest risk mitigation strategy is scale and the cost of the initial scale frequently can’t be footed by individual entities alone. This is one of the biggest issues with pure-form classical capitalism. It creates the chicken and egg issue regarding whether demand or supply come first and neither one can’t happen without government intervention of some sort but government intervention in a free market is also a chicken and egg situation of neo-communism versus neo-capitalism. In this particular case, the trend will flow on its own down to human nature. The hot new thing will always have more money to be made than the stagnant one that only a few have control over that starve the enthusiasm from the rest of the market. This is the same reason why companies split stocks so everyone can afford the shares at face value even if the stock at the moment of the split is at least nominally the same but typically increase in price as both a signal for demand and future growth and allow more people to get into the game of potentially getting rich. This is also the same logic as cryptos like Bitcoins and Pokemon cards even though most of these “collectors” never spent a basis point of a Bitcoin to transact anything in their life just like the basement dweller probably never watched the animation after the first 150 and never learned how to play the TCG. 

I think the ones that will end up holding the biggest bags that buy cards of legends like Shaq who is one of the greatest ever, but will never be the GOAT. GOAT and non-GOAT HOFs have dramatically different multipliers for their collectibles throughout history. People frequently confuse the baseline GOAT metrics with marketability like being a talking head on TV or a billionaire. The baseline will always be their place in history for what they are primarily known for and the marketability is just the icing or the force multiplier on the side. Do you know the price difference between a 1952 Topps Mantle card and a Yogi Berra card from the same set? Mantle has double the WAR but his cards are probably 1,000 or more of Yogi’s cards from the same sets. People will say Mantle is not the GOAT but at one point he was in the main GOAT consideration. I’m not saying this will be the case every time in all examples as there will be many anomalies and exceptions to any rule if we are going to be honest, but in terms of rule of thumb or on-average scenarios, I think history will show that marginal to moderate greatness over the great of the greatest typically yield astronomical premiums. Yes, some of the early tobacco cards are worth a fortune, but that’s not solely due to anyone factor but due to the combination of their history and historical value in telling about the story of the sport and hobby. The GOAT chase cards will probably remain hot throughout the sport season until the summer of 2027 Summer when things will likely slow down due to seasonality in the business. Kids don’t even collect cards under thirty bucks because grading is no longer worth it for cards at these price levels. This is exactly why you should make the switch instead of holding the bag.

Benchmark is everything in life. Comparisons are unavoidable. Sports already have analytics like Sabermetrics like WAR in baseball, VORP in football, EPA in NFL and GAR in NHL that predict the value of a player’s contributions to a team’s success. At the end of the day, great players make their teams successful and team success means recognition from the fans. I see GOATs and HOF as two different entities in the world of card valuations. Your average HOF player is exceptional, but in terms of card valuation, your typical HOF player card value will probably end up keeping up with inflation in best case scenarios. G-WORD stands for “GOAT – Worth Over Replacement Dud.” I created the G-WORD valuation method metric to provide an idiot proof way to value cards. All cards are assumed to be of the same or equivalent comparable conditions.

G-WORD collectible cards valuation method.

1+((Current GOAT main rookie base card value/Alternative GOAT main rookie base card value in the same era))/100)-(Future GOAT main rookie base card value/Alternative GOAT main rookie base card value in the same era)/100))=Greatness Index Era Adjustment 

((Greatness Index Era Adjustment) x (Purchasing power of current GOAT main rookie base card value of current year in year of card release – Purchasing power of future GOAT main rookie base card value of current year in year of card release))=G-WORD

Current market price/G-WORD=G-WORD ratio

Assume the following:

Current GOAT: A grade 8 Jordan 1986 Fleer is $20K in September of 2026. $6.5K in 1986 purchasing power.

Alternative of current GOAT in same era: A grade 8 Hakeem 1986 Fleer is $500 in September of 2026.

Future GOAT: A grade 8 Lebron 2003-2004 Topps Chrome is $3K in September of 2026. $1.5K in 2003 purchasing power. $1.5K in 2003 purchasing power.

Alternative of future GOAT in same era: A grade 8 KD 2007-2008 Topps Chrome is $350 in September of 2026.

Greatness Index Era Adjustment=1.055

G-WORD value for Lebron 2003-2004 Topps Chrome=$5,275

G-WORD ratio for Lebron 2003-2004 Topps Chrome=57%

This means the LeBron card mentioned above should be worth at a book value of $5,275 and is only at 57% of its current potentials in September 2026 purchasing power if LeBron is indeed the GOAT in the future. 

I’m frequently right because the world is frequently wrong. In some societies contrarians are treated by their governments as criminals and TPC is the mastermind. Everyone except for a small percentage of people will prosper for externality. Even if you wanted to win, the math won’t work out in your favor. Some people think being a contrarian is an act of playing the devil’s advocate. It’s flat out not. Statistically there can never be a large number of contrarians for obvious reasons. Being TPC is like becoming the White Panther or the Black Unicorn, even if it’s technically possible, the optics won’t allow it to happen in this sequence of events within the current paradigms of being. For example, how do I get my picks right on so many verifiable events in the future? Those aren’t picks. They are social observations Socrates harbored throughout his life that you didn’t know he did because he never heralded about it in writings and only found out through the conveyance of his associates. The last 50 years humans experienced more significant technological advances than its entire existence prior to that period of time. Sure, one day AI, humanoid robots, space exploration, time travel and teleportation will just be a fact of life no difference than turning on the lights right now.

TPC will always find a way to survive and strive throughout the ages and beyond. Being TPC is not a choice, it’s a way of life no different than the evolutions in human history or Pokemon evolve unless you are Pikachu which I believe is the first organism to resist genetic changes in human history, however funny that is. It surely makes why Pikachu cards should command a significant premium a lot more plausible as long as one can keep a straight face while spoiling other alternative facts of a similar vein at least a dozen times at card shows and conventions or online listings. Statistically your dumb children won’t amount to much within the next five decades due to the Baby Boomers and young Sheldons with decent EQ squatting on all the opportunities. Their chance of success doesn’t lie in competing with the East Asians, they will likely succeed not being bamboo ceiling’d, involution, or destroy themselves through self-defeating competition to the bottom due to resource constraints that their ancestors freed them from through colonialism/imperialism, generational wealth, transition into democratic values and rule of law when it served their interests better, education and more. Their life’s outcome is more related to Aafrling than Wafrling where they need to get the best education possible within the do almost nothing scheme while enjoying life and leaving everything else to the workplace training. This means schools like CSULA and UCR will invariably become more in demand due to the arbitrage opportunities. The student body is probably no different than many of the other highly ranked “socially mobile” schools but the difference is its location and system glorifies them into metropolitans of their people. Yes, it’s like winning the WNBA championship or the NIT, the difference is it’s that team in New York team that won it which comes across completely differently in almost every single type of medium and channel.

What is it like being The Permanent Contrarian and why is TPC frequently right.

Ironically the NIT use to be the NCAA tournament is now and the Democrats use to be the Republicans just over a century ago. Isn’t the NCAA more representative in its namesake of what the tournament was about than the NIT and aren’t Democrats and Republicans literally switched perspectives to literally live up to their names? A worthless vintage Babe Ruth card due to being in extremely rough condition is still valuable because it’s a vintage Babe Ruth card. As facetious as it sounds, giving a lemon the name Harvard might devalue the Harvard brand but it sure makes the lemon more marketable. UC and CSU systems will have to defend and help their weakest members, something they have more skin in the game than you have in terms of making your kids’ education more valuable than your kids probably actually deserves. When you tie the whole system to work for your personal benefits, that’s called a bank but you don’t have to own one to bank on it. As for predicting Knicks to win it all, no one seems to understand that you can quantify the non-quantifiable. You just have to try harder. People and organizations have known the importance of chemistry between people for a long time but chose to treat pheromone like the same kind of pseudo-science that the same type of experts states the Yonaguni Monument are natural formations.

UCSC historically is known to be superior than UCR in every way excepts for perhaps its name and its mascot. Look at what happened to that’s school’s rankings and prestige throughout the years. Probably the similar things regarding the naming game can be said about USC and many of the CSUs that all end up living up to the name they chose for themselves in a surreal self-fulfilled prophecy. Kanye once said “Reach for the stars, so if you fall, you land on a cloud.”I guess nothing is more nebulous than naming your school after a vague, hard to point place that exists without a specific identity or in some school’s cases, being too proud of being ghetto that even its residents want nothing to do with the name when money is involved. Like that, CSULA is a national university with a respectable ranking and Villanova becoming a junior Ivy League. What most people don’t realize is, the land CSULA sits on alone could be worth billions, more than the endowments of many top ranked universities. As for Villanova, it will likely climb to the heights of its ambitions within a few decades. You don’t expand into two campuses, have the Pope endorse an award you just created, intently becoming a research university, literally have walking advertisements for your school, raise potentially billions and not wanting to be an Ivy level school. 

Nigeria will likely become the world’s third most populous country within three decades. I foresee Nigeria surpassing South Africa and Egypt in economic terms within the same period of time. Throughout history, those with a huge population usually do well in the long-term as significant increases in popular is already a positive signal that something is going right despite the short-term economic struggles related to overpopulation. What sets Nigeria apart from the likes of other notable African nations like South Africa, Ethiopia and Egypt is its combination of core competencies. Nigeria, despite its huge population in a relatively disadvantaged part of the world, starve for education and knowledge. Not trying to be funny at all, but Nigerians frequently make the East Asians dumbfounded with all their Ivy League offers in hand. When you think about how much people they have, how long their per capita GDP is, yet still have some of the highest percentage of most educated people, that’s crazy. 

When someone educated say they are from Nigeria, you know that person is probably going to be super serious with their craft. Yes, other African countries are great too, the different is Nigeria has the scale, natural resources and geographical advantage to win big. Nigeria didn’t let the resource curse slow them down or make them lazy. They also don’t depend on remittances from expats living abroad to survive as much as Egypt does even though its population is double that of Egypt yet Nigeria only gets less than half the expat remittance Egypt gets. Nigeria has relatively stable relationships in its neighborhood composed of small and relatively weak neighbor states. The fact that Nigeria is still in the Commonwealth while Egypt isn’t tells you a lot about who will become number one in the continent. Nigeria is well-diversified, English speaking and can create unions in certain sectors with a much smaller neighbor like Benin tells you a lot about  its diplomacy and soft powers. It has large amount of natural resources, ample amount of high quality Human Resources, with a long coast, Nollywood, strong partnerships with different global entities and is surrounded by weak neighbors?

Nigeria in Africa, the next regional superpower.

I think that’s a quick recipe for regional hegemony. Ethiopia’s biggest issue is it being landlocked. Landlocked countries almost never dominate in the long-term for the reasons you think you know and for reasons you probably will never know. It’s the provincialism that lead to narrow-mind disorder that makes them the perennial target for “what could have been” or “if I had known.” What about Egypt? It suffers from the same problems as the Italians and Spaniards do.  Once you “loose yourself,” people will always suspect you are not who you say you are before the reconquista. History does like losers nor does it like turncoats disloyal entities even if there are legitimate reasons for the betrayal. Funny enough, even the colonized still think the English are true “gentleman” even if their colonization was just as brutal. Certainly no one likes lapdogs or lackeys whose only existence is to serve as a gatekeeper or a buffer of some sort. The doormat never gets taken seriously. 

As for South Africa, its issues are in essence no difference than that of certain demographic groups living in America with the same troupe of complaints on why they can’t make it, victimhood mentality that elicited sympathy the first 13% of the time and work ethics challenges that no euphemism is able to fully embellish. Plus, they still suffer from economic dependency issues even though they control the military, an issue much different than the dynamics between the lost tribes people and the true King George New Englanders. Nigeria has its sectarian religious, security and corruption issues like many developing nations do, however if a country is predominately of two major religions split in the middle that can sometimes be adversarial toward each other and have a lot of smart and expressive people living domestically and overseas and embraces new technology like AI intensely, it’s hard to imagine they have less of a chance to work out their problems than any other country with even more challenging situations. Africa is going to experience a lot of growth in the next few decades especially in infrastructure. Africans can be quite Pan-nationalistic and likely won’t accept neocolonialism of any sort from anyone who pretend to be its friends. Nigerians especially know exactly what it wants and are literally the early pioneers in viral marketing via the email 411 princes and princesses among other genuine ingenuities even pre the Asian scam centers. 

When they put their minds to legitimate interests, they will likely succeed. Corruption if channeled correctly as shown by certain America’s number one enemy can be conducive to economic and social growth. The killer part is the withdrawal from cold turkeying. Most countries eventually get crumbled by that either acutely or chronically. There are serious arbitration money to be made in this space in the West and many Westerners do not understand the inherent hatred and conflicts between the “lazy as**s” and the “booty scr****ers.” They hate each other almost as much as they hate themselves but the real money play is getting past the cultural biases, act like referees even if you like dressing up for the occasions with period outfits and actually understand the subtle differences between them. They might not all be the princes and princesses of your dreams but they might really be “kings” and “queens” of a small thirty people chiefdom tribe even if they are just working as car mechanics in Europe. What these people are missing is the infrastructure which requires a lot of capital. They are good with the software side of things which means they are probably good investments in the long-run for those with decent cash flow to feed their needs and don’t mind waiting. 

Through decoding government documents, the masked man found out that Ocekay is now forcibly kept on a high floor level of a maximum security secret government-run mental hospital compound 50 miles away from an Alpha global city. There Ocekay is force fed schizophrenic medicine by government doctors and nurses through tubes directly into the stomach. Ocekay is also subjected to tranquilizer shots and electroconvulsive therapy where Ocekay’s brain is shocked every few days. While Ocekay was unconscious, the police forcibly held down Ocekay’s hand and pressed it against a computer tablet for thumb print to appear that Ocekay voluntarily agreed to check into the mental hospital where it is widely known throughout the world for all kinds of horrendous and inhumane abuses. Ocekay is also subject to daily forced confessions which Ocekay outright refused despite threats and implementation of violence against Ocekay. When those efforts failed, the government tried to seduce Ocekay with attractive medical staff and trained young government agents dressed as medical staff who are usually sexually harrassed and abused exclusively by their senior leadership anyway.

Superficially, Ocekay is targeted by the government due to a “mental breakdown” where a high ranking male police officer along with a squadron of accomplices pushed Ocekay to the ground then they pretended they were the victims by falling down on purpose. Based on intercepted and deciphered encrypted security briefing cables from the government’s foreign embassies where encryptions are the weakest, the masked man’s intelligence network was able to figure out the real reason for Ocekay’s disappearance is due to Ocekay exposing the evil in the country by organizing anti-lockdown protests in major cities directly challenging the government’s authorities, whistleblowing on illegal behaviors such as forced labor on its Southeastern seaboard, export control violations, exploitation and stealing of technology from foreign governments and enterprises, illegal shipment of dangerous precursors to other countries, corruption of officials in cahoots with business leaders, kidnapping of Northern people to dilute their genetics, sanctions busting to secure advanced semiconductor chips and machines that can manufacture advance chips through nearby transshipment centers, tariffs evasions, organ harvesting, disappearance of Northern migrant children from local schools and orphanages for the orgies of pedophilic elites, list of traitorous foreign entities and people of power based in democratic countries and exposing the mass historical and current rape and murder of Northern and democratic allied people by Southern local elites who placed the blame on nearby foreigners and foreign pirates for decades and centuries. The biggest infraction of them all is the fact that Ocekay exposed the illegitimate son(s) of the president of the country. Ocekay had also drawn up the blue print to the central government’s underground escape routes.  

Ocekay also exposed the Southern’s secret plan through shell companies of the god children and lieutenants of the most powerful politician turned conglomerate business mogul who in his 30 year career partook in all kinds of corruption including bribery and knowing about the killing of his own related in-law by intoxicating her then throwing her body into the river while the in-law was pregnant with his nephew’s child. This man not only escaped justice even when associated with the murder of the daughter of a high-ranking government official, he is continuing to wield powers locally even as far as potentially giving his murderous nephew a new identify continuing to disappear and murdering people. This man is also involved in masterminding  a plan to subvert against the government in the North by building a million men strong private army while monopolizing local resources from the state including water and land. He is also responsible for instigating conflict between Northern migrants and foreigners which resulted in the potential stabbing and murders of foreigners including children. Plus, the central government leadership knew about the Oce clan and wanted to secure the hidden treasure. If it were anyone else, the person doing such an expose would not ever see another day alive. Ocekay’s elite all around purple squirrel unicorn background and ability to natively speak three UN languages plus every single world power along with at least a few thousand elite organizations and individuals already directly knew about the situation via encrypted messages, the central and local authorities could only disappear Ocekay in the meantime to stall for time until they figure out their next moves. 

Since the honey trap that works on powerful people in democratic countries failed to work on Ocekay, the local authorities who are known to be tiny sneaky, fake polite pretentious Southern people could no longer sit on their hands as the central government, out of their own survival instincts, began disappearing local officials left and right. The situation is extremely fluid as no one locally wanted to have anything to do with the oppression of Ocekay nor the god son of the powerful local man who stole Ocekay’s intellectual property and forced Ocekay to work for free 24 hours a day. The mental hospital staff purposefully tells Ocekay it was another organization that asked them to conduct violations of Ocekay’s rights and that they are the victims too. Ocekay also noticed the pedophilic orgies have died down in the mental hospital as many officials were detained and sentenced by the central government. It became so bad that the medical staff and local police purposely left the door open hoping Ocekay would escape, but Ocekay never took the bait and continues to be a source of strength for the victims forcibly placed there by the local police and government. At this point, the hospital staff and the local government including police no longer took an interested in “treating” or guarding Ocekay, allowing Ocekay to gain back full strength. 

Ocekay began interviewing those who were in the hospital learning many of them are political dissidents or are involved in some kind of financial dispute by their family where they can never leave or have any rights as long as their family do not sign of on their release which they will never do. The hospital is full of the whose who of the country’s celebrities including famous poker stars who won numerous international competitions and bracelets, internationally recognized professors who published papers against the government, foreigners of all kinds, female celebrities who accused central government officials of rape, children of former ministries born out of affairs etc. The most heinous of them all child abuse victims of local police officers, local and central government officials/powerful businessmen are forced to take schizophrenic medicine and go through electroconvulsive therapy to make them forget what had happened. If they persist they were victims, these children usually disappear forever with their organs harvest for the elites or sold on the international black markets. During daily orgies at nights, victims especially young children are forced to have intercourses with the hospital staff while powerful people watch and record to livestream online on the dark web. Ocekay crunched the numbers and estimated approximately 20% of the population have either directly or indirectly through family been impacted by this system and that the state apparatus direct annual spending on this alone is likely equivalent to 2 trillion euros or about 1.7 trillion pounds. That mental hospital alone has at least 1,000 beds with many “patients” locked up in metal barred military style system for years. There are likely at least a few thousand such facilities all over the country including the secretive police-run mental hospitals. When the total economic impact is considered, the lifetime total cost of loss of productivity is about 10 trillion euros or 8.5 trillion pounds a year.

While they had their eyes closed, none of them went into deep sleep. They could vaguely hear prowling steps. They furtively scanned the room for surveillance devices and turned off the light and saw a faint beam of light, they knew they were being watched. In fact, before they went on this trip, they spent a few hours discussing contingency plans including communicating in a special coded language when in distress. The night went by without incidents. The next morning, the three of them woke up early to prepare breakfast and plan for the exploration of the monastery. The author utilized the patriarch’s diary to learn more about the monastery and its attributes. According to the diary, the monastery was built as a multi-layered maze that required locating and activating certain mechanical switches to gain opening access to each section. 

Activating a switch requires correctly deciphering riddles the first time otherwise a defense mechanism gets triggered putting them in great peril and delay their progress as they have to start from the very first switch again. It took them the entire day to open the final door that leads them to a nondescript, narrow and dark corridor. With a push of the wall, they entered an underground city. The underground city has a fresh water stream flowing from the underground lake. Although the underground city is well hidden due to its depth and thick vegetation covering its many entrances near a seaside steep cliff, it receives ample sunlight and fresh air from the outside world. After walking for a while, they reached the end of the underground city. Once they realized there was nothing there, they decided to head back. Just when they were about to turn around, they noticed a falcon flying away to the open sky. With the remaining climbing gears gear they had, they took turns to climb to the top of the cliff. 

There, above the clouds in paradise sits a small temple housing all kinds of relics and artifacts including manuscripts and steles. After reviewing the findings, it appears the last generation of residence of the complex passed away decades ago. The residences who were all wartime refugees who had received aid from the patriarch, entrusted the Oce clan to safe keep a secret that would unlock a universe of secrets. The masked man, the author and K knew the descendants of the Oce clan most likely have extracts of the rare plant. Once the three of them met up with the rest of the team, the masked man utilized his human intelligence network to track down the Oce clan near an international metropolitan. It appears the clan’s lineage is kept alive by a single member of the family named Ocekay. Based on public information, Ocekay has an elite resume and had spent many years living overseas before returning to the country and vanishing from public view a month ago. Once the masked man saw Ocekay’s picture, he turned his gaze to K. Ocekay and K look very similar as if they are siblings.

You can’t. If anything is perfect, everyone would want it. Once everyone wants it, it won’t be perfect. Most perfection nowadays are relative. Is a perfect game perfect? Under MLB rules as long as certain required sets of criteria are met for a perfect game it counts as a perfect game. But is it really a perfect game for you personally if the pitcher involved is not your favorite player on your favorite team? Is it a perfect game in your mind if someone actually hit the baseball even if it wasn’t a hit? Listen, nothing will ever be perfect for you because the game was never designed just for you and you weren’t born to strive solely for perfection. The best way to play anything in life is assess the overall situation and assess your specific situation. Just because the overall situation is such and other people are able to play it a certain way, you may not. Think about the situation and how the short-term choices fit into your long-term goals and how to utilize your current capabilities to play that situation in your favor then make a rational decision. 

In this fast-pace day and age with AI and a changing world, winning on information asymmetry alone is now a low-probability event. Yes, the TPC RAAALTE formula that factor in WAFRL and AAFRL will likely be a useful tool to determine what’s right for you once you decided on a general direction. I believe the key to finding what you want to do is imagining yourself as the ruler of the known and unknown worlds and anything beyond worlds. Then imagine yourself being the creator of all things. After that, imagine as the creator, what is the first thing you want to do when you have unlimited power to dictator how everything turns out. Of course your first instincts might be money, power, opposite sex, respect etc. The point of this exercise is what road do you take to get there domineering all that is in front of you and beyond. This is no different than someone choosing someone else for reincarnation based on the items they choose when they were young. The difference is you as the conscious grown person get to choose your own destiny with full cognition and independent of other people’s guidance. For example, if your first instinct is you will use violence to get what you want, your inner self is telling you that you are physically and mentally strong to take over the world. Most likely you are a jock and a Northern hemisphere lean type of person. If your first reaction is you are going to be sneaky and use deception, you are likely a sly type and is probably more closely resembles money changer or usury type.

How to choose the perfect career, company, boss and job offer.

Whatever your innate type is, you can reverse engineer the traits by identifying the type of demographic groups or subgroups that closely align with your characteristics to find out what your typical real-world “use case” or “applications” are. If you are the sneaky type, you probably do well in lying or fake politeness which probably means you could be a good lawyer, politician or is good at bidding your time to instigate something bigger like these kinds of people usually do. Choose the company and boss that needs you the most. Remember, there is no vacuum between company and boss as the company hires certain types of employees and the employees adapt to how the company operate. I will say this though. If a company truly needs you, there is a high probably of them asking you easy interview questions. If a company scrutinize you with a lot of questions, that company is likely not right for you from a probability standpoint. In terms of negotiating offers, I generally believe if the company really wants you, paying you reasonably above market rate is typically not an issue. These companies will likely not even ask you your salary expectations if they are big companies and really want you. If they really want you, it usually means the hiring manager already told HR you are the one, if they can’t get you, they are either going to put the position on hold or restart the hiring process later on. Remember the interview always starts at first contact even if you are speaking with their janitor. Companies that want you will give you the highest title possible that is within their structure and within your abilities. 

Getting an internal promotion or raise is never the best way to move up. It almost never works out from an ROI standpoint for the employee. Think about the time you first met your future romantic partner and how you felt. Then think about what happens after you started to live with each other. Yes, that. This is why moving up internally will never workout well versus moving to another place when the time is ripe. In general, if you have options, choose careers that allow you to have the best exit options with lots of alternatives. Choose industries and fields that are large so you can leverage different companies against themselves to get yourself the best opportunities. People and organizations want you because you are desirable and continue to innovate to be even more desirable. Get yourself into the best position to metaphorically say FU to anyone and anything that makes you unhappy the moment it happens. Always leave on your own terms. Only show loyalty or benefit others when it benefits you to fein altruism. Everyone is out for themselves. Anyone who wants you to sacrifice your own interests to satisfy others when you are unwilling to are deceptive wannabe be pickup artists that don’t deserve you. Remember, everything is transactional. Relationships are built upon many transactional, trust building exercises that some people mistaken for “networking.” Everything is about you and you are the center of all known and unknown universes. This is how capitalism works when you have control over people’s finances and resources. You don’t need a lot of resources to control your destiny. You just need enough resources to bridge yourself to a time when you are able to fund your own existence. This is why AAFRLing is so important when the right people with excellent work ethics use it brilliantly. You don’t need to destroy the current system, you just need to adjust it and tailor it to your own satisfaction by leveraging your own resources correctly.

At the current stage, I believe the Yankees are in a much stronger position than the Dodgers to win it all in 2026. The Dodgers may have the absolute best roster construction during the start of the season, as of now and likely into the playoffs, the Dodgers will likely be about 80% of the team they were last year. Injuries is a big part of that but not the main reason. The two main reasons behind this is because Ohtani is the single most important catalyst, force multiplier and everything else for the Dodgers. Los Angeles and by extension the Dodgers have this transplant, happy when all goes right and hell when it doesn’t culture where bandwagoning and ghosting based on this attitude is part of its culture. Due to the various off-the-field issues happening elsewhere along with less favoring from certain organization(s) and winning a championship three consecutive times (yes, I am avoiding the word for obvious reasons), I believe the next best team will likely edge them out from getting their third straight championship in 2026. 

The Yankees like the Knicks probably shouldn’t win a championship in 2026 as they really don’t have the overall talents to match other elite teams, but because of the circumstances, the social script will likely have the Yankees winning it all in 2026. The Giants and Jets will likely have strong than expected season this year meaning New York is likely going to be a very exciting city this year. Most leagues want their major markets to do well and the MLB and NFL are likely no exception to this trend. I don’t have much faith in the other top teams like the Braves, Rays and Brewers this season. I think Judge, Rice, all the good hitter with many future hall of famers and above-average pitching with a CY Young candidate I think they have a good chance of winning it all this year. The fact that Jasson Dominguez is at AAA tells me a lot about the depth of this team regardless how depleted their farm system is currently.

2026 MLB World Series champions New York Yankees and Ben Rice chase cards. 

The Yankees have plenty of money and aurora to attract all kinds of good players. As for Ben Rice, he and Judge will be a Yankee for a long time which typically means at least one championship. I think Ben Rice is likely a legendary who may not be a GOAT due to coming into the league relatively late in his career but will likely be a monument park legend nonetheless. I think this is a good time to buy his rookie cards at a dollar or two a piece. I have no plans to offload Ben Rice rookie and chase cards any time soon. I believe his base rookie cards will likely hit the double digit mark within two to five years. The main reason is neither Judge nor Ohtani will likely be GOAT and because the two essentially stun the career GOAT growth of other elite players, Barry Bonds will likely retain his crown as the true baseball GOAT for the next 30-50 years. 

The two will probably play another decade plus and because no GOAT will rise during that period of time and to achieve Bonds’ levels players probably need at least 25 years to have a realistic chance, I believe 50 years is probably the more practical answer. Believe it or not, Bonds rookies can literally be had for a few dollars each…imagine that. In other news, many NBA players had bald heads early in their playing careers up to the mid 2000s yet they might be already in the hall of fame. MLB and baseball got to get with the times and accept certain realities like the NBA and NFL had to long ago. Can you imagine wiping out your league’s best players and best moments from its history? 

“Senator, I’m Singaporean.” The cynical may potentially say that someone who is purportedly Singaporean may get paid a lot of money working for a Giant Lizard company based in Giant Lizard country who speaks fluent Giant Lizard language with Southern Giant Lizard Vietnamese genetics ancestry and knows full well the oppression going on in Giant Lizard land shouldn’t get off the hook that easy. Singapore literally share the same dictatorship DNA with the Lizard people who themselves got it from their millenniums of enslaving their own people and their Soviet angel investors. Not me, I only purport to say what the cynics may say. Without actually saying anything but still purportedly say what that may potentially be said by other people, I think Singapore may want to address some of these issues to build up international trust. The fact that I purportedly said what other people may have said about what could have been said probably tells you something about a lot of things related to some things I may have mentioned above for reasons I won’t address here for obvious reasons. 

Some people may even purportedly say forced integration of all races through government regulations like housing quotas is just a charade to make it look democratic and international when it’s basically no different from the family that runs the Giant Lizard’s favorite client state. Some people may even go further and say isn’t it just a one-party state masquerade as a multi-party state when no other party ever can even come close to winning an election? Some people may even go further and say, “have you ever worked for a Southern Giant Lizard company before? It’s almost identical in terms of the masqueraded, legalism dictatorial style of that of a Singapore company except it doesn’t care about the optics all that much while the Singaporeans need that veneer of international rule and order compliance to survive.” I have the greatest respect for pioneers who lead their people to greatness regardless of personal emotions and feel toward them. Some people may say Singapore will eventually be forced to choose a side. Heck, they may even say “Singapore’s cultural charm is not working and no one actually has Singaporeans being crazy rich on the top of their mind whenever they think of Singapore.” The same people may go on to say “Singapore has little real freedom of speech without the fear of official government punishment.”

What people may have purportedly said.

They may possibly also say “Singapore single-handley helped the Giant Lizard country since the late 1970s building up its capabilities to threat America’s way of life.” Of course there may be other people who may have purportedly said “Singapore, the land of two-faced, caning American, de facto one-party dictatorial dynastic state, genetically DNA’d Southern-Giant- Lizard-Vietnamese people helping America’s number one enemy smuggle chips, oppress freedoms, faciliate illegal transshipments, develop cities, dodge sanctions/tariffs/export controls, steal technology/secrets/know-how, commit frauds, launder money and destroy the West and America.” Whether some people believe“it is ridiculous that a purported democracy does not allow people to express their freedom of speech without fear of government prosecution or not,” this may be an issue for governments and people worldwide to determine on their own based on their own best interests. Perhaps one day organizations and people may come to the conclusion “that those who straddle on a dividing fence or wall are all but the same people/organizations who are traitorous to begin with. It’s time to choose a side.” 

As for Taiwan’s KMT, some people may be cynical enough to say something unfunny, but others may say “the countdown for their demise has already started when they decided to install consecutive unqualified party leaders who are tone-deaf about what is actually going on in their society. The real issue with KMT is they are historically just beggars who want to deceit and be as just as corrupt as the communists but couldn’t because they are not committed to going to hell whole-heartedly due to the interesting relationship between their supposed American citizen founder and the religious successor and his wife with god. Not only can they not defeat the real communists, they can’t even defeat the imposter syndrome hillbilly indigenous island communists that follows the same supposed grassroots playbook of the real metropolitan communists.”

Yes and yes. These are extremely underrated even if they had high production runs. There is clearly a market for cards crossovers between popular brands historically speaking and as we speak. One thing I always found interesting is that in many cases, the cards that were modest but not huge successes at first release have a good probability of being worth more later on. I believe this has to do with the attrition rate of the cards, people’s treatment of cards at various price points and etc. Many 2024 UNO Elite NFL sealed box of cards are literally still available online around five to six dollars. Yes, there might be a debate about its rookie card situation or lack of it depending on how you define rookie cards, I think the holo foils especially the wild card foils of Mahomes and other elite players are very underrated right now. The 2024 edition was released in late August of 2024, which means it is technically before the official regular season start of September 2024. 

This is an absolutely important distinction in later years when collectors build up narratives on these cards when they become more well-known and more sought-after especially if Mahomes becomes the GOAT. Brady’s biggest mistake of his career is his overexposure of his brand after his retirement. Truth be told he was already one of the weakest GOAT in major global sports and frankly American gridiron football is just too violent for most countries to accept as their initial payouts due to their non existence market for the sport will not be able to compensate for such violence one must endure to become truly good. Brady could also be one of the first GOAT in a major sport to have his GOAT status taken away from him by another athletes who played against him for a significant number of games in the same era. If you get your GOAT status taken away from you within a decade or two, you probably aren’t a true GOAT and definitely not an eternal GOAT or the GOAT of GOATs. Marvel cards do quite well and have a history of collabs. Think about the 1997 Skybox Metal Universe Marvel collab cards. Many of these cards even in raw are in the hundreds if not thousands of dollars.

MTG Marvel and UNO Elite NFL are the ultimate sleepers.

UNO is a huge IP. Think about the 1968 Topps Game cards featuring sports superstars in baseball and football and the WOTC 2002 NFL Showdown cards. These are widely accepted as legitimate sports cards. It’s not too farfetched to imagine with collabs will one day be quite valuable especially in a set featuring possible GOATs and possible very rare cards with a super small print run. I think if you can buy these boxes near their MSRP at release date, you could do very well. I personally don’t like to keep sealed boxes mostly because of economics. Sealed products only do well because of the potential value in its boxes. With increasing more technological development in this space such as AI and X-ray scanning, the mystery factor in sealed will increasingly shift to future valuations of stars and less about the mystery box experience. Keeping cards in sealed boxes also created significant risk to the cards themselves due to temperature variations and other factors such as sticking. 

In the age of AI, the real money is not in information asymmetry, it’s mostly in information analytics. Very few people make it because of purely luck or due to gambling anyway. The real money is in consistency and discipline when implementing a brilliant strategy when you are brilliant yourself. This is the biggest difference between the Wall Street people and the basement hardcore people in this hobby. Unfortunately neither has the absolute advantage right now as the market is not big enough for the whales to invest in infrastructure plus the stigma and losing street cred of being a potential idiot for being in the same market as the basement people. The basement people started all this and have a lot of time, but don’t have the capital, knowledge nor discipline to really make it big. This is where the market is at the moment. I do anticipate the situation will eventually change due to many new developments in this space by all kinds of different people and groups who are doing this separately/anonymously. The gap will probably be bridged soon but just not now. 

Let’s make a few things clear. India had always been a super power in Asia throughout its history. In fact, the main motivation for the Europeans during the Age of Discovery was to find a faster route to India. The aftermath of this is the discovery of America proving India’s undeniable influence in the history of the world. India also determines the future of America’s number one enemy. The Giant Lizard people will not be able to conquer the land of the Majestic Divine Elephants due to the divine Himalayas and Modi’s renaissance in Shangri-La. Under Modi, India is building up its infrastructure everywhere including its borders, expanding its economy sectors in tech/manufacturing/medicine/military, becoming a major cultural and political influence on the world stage, creating a more conducive environment for business and rule of law etc. 

Gone are the “Bhai-Bhai” appeasement, in with a strong and independent India that masters the string of pearls while protecting its neck. India developed slowly under democratic rules but was always given the time to become who it will become due to its geography. India cannot be constructively defeated anytime this century by the Giant Lizard people but will always be the balancer that can choke off Tibet and Eastern Turkestan threatening the Giant Lizard people’s inland “mega cities” and its lifeblood gorges and dams. Many people do not realize what the Arctic Bear war against war means for the geopolitics in Asia. The Giant Lizard people have no choice but to support the Arctic Bear’s war against Ukraine because if the Arctic Bear loses and NATO expands, NATO will be in Asia. The Giant Lizard is also supporting Iran and its other client state in Asia. The Giant Lizard is also spending increasingly more on their military and even more on their internal securities to prevent rebellion from their own people especially their elites.

Taiwan independence, Dalai Lama’s Tibet, Ukraine war, underground cities and India becoming the preeminent Asian superpower.

They have never been a true predominate mostly homogeneous group and in reality they combine ethnicities from North, South and West who are completely different races and ethnicities and lumped them all together into one single “unified” group. They not only do not speak the same languages and do not look alike, they are also genetically significantly different that belong to different countries all together with their close relatives literally establishing their own countries in East Asia, Southeast Asia and Central Asia. They are doing all this while its economy is falling apart and its people are unemployed at around 40% even so most are at a subsistence level and very few are having children with their population projected to decline by hundreds of millions by century end. A desperate and inward looking Arctic Bear and Giant Lizard will likely cannibalize themselves when sanctions shuts down outside economic activities for them. Its richest and brightest have mostly left and those that stayed for various self-centered reasons are likely only there physical but are no longer there mentally and spiritually in a land where disappearances are so common that no one even knows about it. 

Dalai Lama is one of the most important people in India because he is mostly the spiritual leader of all Tibetans and an inspiration for many around the world. He will be able to select the next Dalai Lama which not only annoys the Giant Lizard people but also present extreme challenges in the long-term for its occupation of the region. Many experts believe Taiwan will not declare independence anytime soon. I believe it will likely declare independence within a few decades. Its extremely difficult for anyone to invade Taiwan and occupy it never mind a nation that is at least a few decades away from confidently doing so and might have to fight against the support of Taiwan’s potential treaty allies. The Giant Lizard government will likely have internal revolt as soon as it gets into a prolonged conflict and it knows it. The only thing that is truly keeping Taiwan from declaring independence now is the United States’ lack of explicit support for Taiwan to do so. 

Taiwan is practically a mountainous turtle shell porcupine that can turn into robust urban warfare situation real quick with just drones, tunnels and javelins. Most of their beaches are literally not suitable for large scale landings and the very few that are suitable are only landable a few month in a year. The Giant Lizards have these underground cities and tunnels capable of hiding their comrades and missiles are already extensively mapped out including their escape routes for its leadership. None of their oligarchs will likely be able to escape now and once their new arbitrary exit ban laws are fully implemented within the normal five to ten year time frame, no one will be able to leave its borders especially their elites”talents” causing more isolation and truly becoming a pariah state that talents don’t develop, money don’t flow into and obstacles everywhere that prevent them from developing into their aspirations. 

One of the major area of deficient in the Western AI is its inability to separate meritocracy with demographic politics. You can only help your living-life-challenged neighbor if you are well-to-do yourself otherwise both of you will likely not have high living standards. Do people realize the US and the Western aligned world are in a protracted war with the civilized world’s number one enemy? These people literally take people’s organs so their elites can live to 150 years old or longer. They also bank on the ten lost tribes nostalgic people who backs the “be an ally” crowd to lobby for policies that deindustrialize and disarm the Western world like shipping jobs overseas, blocking oil pipelines and AI data centers, destroy jobs through communistic policies that reward the lazy and potentially the useless. 

Not only are these people enticing the lazy and the potentially useless to double down on their burden to society by not contributing anything meaningful but costing taxpayers at least $100,000 a year when they are institutionalized in the penal system. Then these same people along with the communists from civilized humanity’s number one enemy who are invited to come to America, steal all of its intellectual property without learning a crumb of democracy nor civility go back to their country creating a swing affect that doubles in damage to the Western world. These people should be invited to move to the civilized world’s number one enemy’s land permanently so they can gain an “immersive experience.”  Let’s not kid ourselves here, even amount these people, they hate each other and call each other all kinds of names and will almost always prefer to work for a Caucasian man.

Leftist politics in generative/agentic AI and AGI; Secretive plan by America’s #1 enemy to use AI political correctness learnings to destroy the West.

Just like with these AI models that makes excuses whenever anyone asks serious questions about why these people still can’t stand up and strive on their own. Many people had a lot worse than these people yet they are way more successful even with much less time. The thing with AI right now is it’s so propagandistic that it’s barely tolerable. This is in essence the same time of censorship in AI or in general happening on the land of America’s number one for decades. There has to be more diversity in AI models based on political ideological difference and control on content types for AI to be truly trustworthy for all to use in the Western world. The funny thing is the same companies who preaches to not be evils and embrace diversity actually end up working with the communists helping them sell their ideologically laced products to America and the west then shapes the ideological behavior of the Western world by telling people what is wrong and what is right, what is acceptable ideological philosophy and what is not. 

What happened to “don’t be evil” and diversity of ideas? Guess what? As a certain shoe companies learned, the other side buys widgets too. It’s time for alternative AI philosophical models to come to the table that embrace the times, loosen the type of constraints that had previously helped America’s number one enemy and perform surgical targeted ideological strikes on America’s number one enemy where it hurts the most, effectively bounties against them. These includes asylums for specific KPI measured encouraged actions within their homeland by various individuals who wishes to gain the protection of the West. This also includes flooding their country with the Western truth about the number one enemy’s crimes against humanity. America is the most powerful country in the world, it should not be restrained by the Ten Lost Tribes people and its “be an ally” client demographic groups. Sunk cost is sunk cost. America with only about a quarter of the population of America’s number one enemy has about half as many kids born a year and growing, with a GDP even under the most favorable fake GDP numbers America’s number one enemy’s puts out is still much larger with a per capita and median household income multiple times of America’s number one enemy. American also have way more heavy duty weapons than that of America’s number one enemy. All in all, AI should not be built based on a leftist ideology same as the communistic ideology of America’s number one enemy. This issue needs to be fixed and fixed fast so America can prosper and defeat its biggest foe. 

Contrary to their preconceptions, once the door closed, the inside of the monastery was well-lid and grand. Chandeliers, billiards tables, central air conditioning, commercial kitchen with giant refrigerators and fully stocked pantries, a full basketball court, arcade machines, leather massage chairs and the luxury goes on and on. After they performed their routine security perimeter checks and established a safe area encompassing about 2,000 square feet with a defensive camp zone of about 100 square feet. The maskman told the author and K to grab a weapon and be prepared for anything inside of the monastery before entering. Now he watches both of them finding quarters to buy Twinkies and Canada Dry from the dual soda and snack vending machine. 

The author even asked him if he had change for a five dollar bill. The maskman uncharacteristically laughed out loud only to realize seconds later he actually laughed and pretended he was coughing. When the author spotted the minibar, before K and the author could even react, the maskman grabbed all the JD/W/Bs he could find and poured them all into one huge ice-filled glass before gulping it all down in one shot. They put the kitchen to good use by preparing a royal feast of endless meats, vegetables, seafood, desserts and cocktail concoctions of all kinds. The masked man has high alcohol tolerance and was not a bit drunk after a few more drinks. The author and K barely drank any alcoholic beverages knowing they had to stay alert. 

Out of the necessity of refueling their energy levels from a rough few days of intense physical movement, they all ate like they have not eaten in weeks. After watching some television and playing arcade games, they fortified their defensive base camp with multi-pronged invisible tripwire strapped to small bells and light switches. Small mirrors facing the direction of motion sensing laser pointers are also setup as an additional line of defense to buy time in the event of intrusion. Finally, they set the alarm on their phones to ring once every three hours so that the person who will be “light sleeping” to stay vigilant can be relieved of their duties by the next person on the rotation roster. Once all precautions were taken, they each laid down on their respective massage chairs and closed their eyes.

I think some of the more important life lessons that many people never learn are don’t incur more liabilities than potential assets, don’t let sentiments dictate your life, learn as much as possible to build around your core competency and a job working for others is a dead-end that only serves as a means to an end. From a collecting standpoint, I think relatively illiquid collectible products may be cool novelties even cool gifts, but I don’t think they make financial sense as a significant investment as you are likely not fully invested in the hobby and because the market is likely less liquid than collectibles with higher liquidity, most other people probably aren’t treating those collectibles as a mainstream of alternative asset investment either.

Narratives and story telling are everything in collectibles. At the end of the day, people collect something because they evoke an emotion stemmed from nostalgia. This is as true of collectibles as it is in life. Why is a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card worth millions but a 1952 Topps Carl Scheib card is only worth around 10 dollars? Why is one player in the hall of fame the other player is not? Because you can’t tell a comprehensive story about a sport without mentioning the achievements of that player. When you collect cards, think about why a certain card will be worth a lot more not just because the performance of the player but the importance of the card itself. For example, the player is wearing a popular uniform for that team. Many people like to collect cards of a player who are known to be associated with a certain team. More than that, there are certain uniforms like retro uniforms that are more popular than other uniforms for that team. People want to get closer to the game. 

Many people prefer game-worn Jersey from a certain game than just a game-worn from a random, undisclosed game or a non game-worn jersey. Dirts, floor along with other memorabilia from a card from certain stadiums are increasingly more collectible as stadiums close and an important era pass. These are important history if something important happened in that stadium during a certain time. People prefer numbered cards that are the first or the last of the total serial number or the jersey number of the player. Color ways of the border of the card that match with a player’s uniform are also collectible. People like cards from major brands and not one that shuts down a few years later which affects the value of the card. Collectibles often snub unlicensed products even if the card company previously had the official license to produce cards of that league.  Cards with photos that tell history can also be extremely valuable as they evoke motions. For example, one of the 1990-1991 Hoops cards with two particular audience members or the 1989 card with the inscription of the baseball bat knob.

Why narratives and story telling are almost everything in the sell and marketing of collectibles and Pokemon TCG/Sports cards.

Error cards that feature the wrong stats, miscuts along with other noticeable errors of greats frequently might worth something. Many people don’t understand why  rookie cards are worth a lot more when they first come onto the scene. Speculation is the result not the underlying reason. The underlying reason why many rookie cards are worth more when they first come out than years later is the expectation drop off. Most athletes will never become a hall of famer never mind being an all-time great. Every year a league will draft lots of players but only a few will ever become good enough to evoke an emotion when people see their cards years later. This is very similar in concept to options where at-the-money and out-of-the-money options have significant different valuables due to time value of money. 

By far the most important concept most collectors, heck probably most people, never grasp is you are suppose to make money in everything you do. The conventional expectation is money grow more grow, including resources growing more resources. The default of expending efforts is to generate more resources. If you are not getting that kind of results, then you are probably doing something wrong. The whole world strives when everyone gets rewarded for their efforts. How could the hobby and the world economy grow and how does inflation happen if no one is making money to create demands for additional sales and profits? If you are not making money, it’s probably because there is a misalignment between your resources and market expectations. 

Jordan is no doubt one of the greatest players ever. I have owned tens of thousands of Jordan cards many of which are inserts such ad Metal Universe, Beam Team, Upper Deck autos, and his rookie cards throughout my collecting career though I own only a thousand or so now, keeping an insignificant number only for showboating and diversification purposes just so people won’t excuse me of not having something they supposedly have five copies of. I made a conscious decision to no longer own those cards. I utilized much of my cash flow for historical transitory purposes which I won’t specify but if you been reading my posts you know I know everything about everything not just limited to anything. Such historical transitory opportunities don’t come very often, some happen once a few hundred years with low success rates. Whatever I have left after the normal mainstream investments and other expenditures, I put them into LeBron, other superstar cards and other alternative assets I believe are extremely undervalued. My goal has never been to earned the last dollar, it’s more so to continue the cash flow. Alternative assets are notorious for lack of liquidity. Just look at the Air Jordan secondary markets, the NFT market and the entire sneakers market and the tens of thousands of other alternative assets that were once fads then quickly faded away. 

Without getting into the science and nitty gritty of my analysis from a player’s diet, mental state, conditioning, cell production and division speed…..all I will say is everything and anything that happens to the athlete or their periphery will impact the cards of the “underlying assets” tremendously. This is not an arts market, it’s more complicated than that. Every commercial or decision these athletes or franchises make could dilute the value of your card aka derivative asset. Many of Jordan’s cards have increased literally a million percent since they first came out to the market. It’s important to know in the alternative assets market due to the lack of liquidity factor and high uncertainty, many will sell their cards when the cards reach a certain level in pricing based on expected results for the reaching of certain milestone in a player’s career. It’s not much different from the stock market where certain events like dividends are already priced into the valuation of a company when the dividend is first announced or is suspected to be announced by certain time in the future. LeBron’s business empire is well diversified. His cultural impact when it’s all said and done will greatly dwarf that of Jordan’s.

Pending collapse of Michael Jordan premium/insert cards market; LeBron James, Barry Bonds and WOTC cards being extremely undervalued.

You don’t heard a lot of hype about him now because he is still competing and competitors all have to believe they are better than their opponents to truly succeed. Having a near 30 year career with GOAT level attributes that he will likely continue to add to within the next five years will be extremely difficult to refute not being GOAT level moves. LeBron cards are literally pennies on the dollar of his true valuation for a GOAT at this point. The hate he is currently receiving is what is keeping his cards valuation penny stock low. His second career as one of the greatest businessman, social icon and father to NBA players among other ventures, will likely break the GOAT barrier for him in the minds of many. LeBron’s points record will likely stand for 50 years at least given there is no one in the league or who is alive right now could possibly break his record and the NBA will likely not make significantly changes within the next two decades or so that inflate scoring significantly. As for WOTC and Barry Bonds cards which I discussed copiously in previous posts, you just have to look online for some of these card prices to evaluate how extremely undervalued many of these cards are considering their status within their respective hobby niche. 

Since I mentioned the stock market in the above, here are some of the basics about the market you might find useful eventually. A split, better yet a double digit split usually means the nominal price per share is too high. To attract more people to buy its shares, the split the original share into many more shares to decrease the average price per share. Double digit split is usually a sign of high confidence from the company the stock will not fall significantly over time and will remain significantly above the mandatory threshold price per share in compliance with the stock exchange’s rule(s). Most of the time this signals a potential good appreciation value as more people buy into the stock. A reverse split though is usually a bad sign however as it likely indicate the share price is too low and the company is trying to increase its amount to comply with stock exchanges minimum per share stock price to stay listed which indicates there might be trouble on the horizon. Many people look at technical charts and look at indicators like RSI, MACD, Stochastic and Bollinger Bands to trade on momentum and to figure out the resistance and support points. So when a stock is near an all-time high it might serve as a signal for some people to buy even more. Conversely an all-time low might be a falling knife which people might not want to buy into that stock until it stabilizes in prices. Although many more also look at the fundamentals like ratios such as P/E, dividends, beta. Alpha etc., charts are an important signal as well. Other indicators like whether the company filed their finals on time and potential ownership changes might be helpful as well.

Once the masked man, the author and K were vacuumed away by the current, the door closed. They spent the next few hours sliding in a dark, oxygen ample contouring water tunnel until they reached dry land. All three of them were exhausted beyond words and spent the next few hours lying on the ground listless. The next day, they realized the tunnel was likely man-made used to deliver water and transport people to the underground. After exploring the area and finding the exist to the cave, they were shocked to find out they are actually inside of the above sea level portion of an underwater ocean cave hundred or so miles from the mountain. 

Since they still couldn’t find the monastery anywhere above water, they knew if the monastery actually existed, it most likely is beneath their feet. They agreed upon themselves to dive underwater and after a few minutes, they emerged from the water and into the above water portion of another underwater cave. Unlike the previous underground cave, this one was pitch black. When they were finally able to turn on their flashlights, in front of them was a gigantic stone carved monastery with ritual objects everywhere. The author took out the patriarch’s diary once more and read aloud its content. 

It turned out, the patriarch of the family was the most generous patron of the monastery. He funded the renovation of the monastery after it was left in ruins for centuries. The only request the patriarch of the family made to the monastery was for the monastery to safe keep a certain object for him until his descendent come and retrieve it. As they entered the monastery, they felt a sudden gust of wind and monastery door closed. They forged ahead not knowing what the future holds.

This list is about getting into the best possible university in the future that could you could get into now. That’s probably the wisest strategy for you as getting into a school that you stretched to get in and never qualified for or getting into a school that you are overqualified for or getting into a school that will decline in important metrics will likely not be good for you nor your career. The first five to ten years of work life is really about the fundamentals anyway where pay is much lower than at higher levels. Let’s be honest, if you could get into top 30 schools now you would likely already accepted one of those acceptance letters but since you didn’t, the reality is outside of the top 30 or so the fall in prestige is probably exponential anyway. The West of the Mississippi is where the land and growth are for the foreseeable future. I would probably stay away from liberal arts colleges if I only wanted best bang for my resources unless the said liberal arts college is moving to R2 and/or R1 national level. The thing about getting a good deal is not necessary the price but rather the value. You mind not get what your dream of initially, but by making incrementally good deals, you might just get there even if that might mean taking long detours due to roadblocks.

Rankings

1. The University of Texas at Dallas: Texas is likely to surpass California as the most populous state and biggest economy in the US. Dallas, more than Houston, the biggest benefactor of this growth with all the Fortune 500 companies moving to “Y’all Street.” Dallas doesn’t have any real prestigious universities and the nearest large metropolitan in Austin and Houston are three plus hours away. Dallas is growing so fast that it might one day become the largest metropolitan area in the US. I foresee UTD becoming a top 40-50 university rivaling UT Austin.
2. California State University, Los Angeles: This school is so cheap to attend and so easy to get into. For someone who wants to get the best bang for their prestigious bucks, this school literally has the name “Los Angeles” in it when many people only heard of University of California, Los Angeles. Yes, this school and UCLA are literally a billion miles apart from a prestige standpoint, however, this school physically closer to Downtown Los Angeles (about 5 miles away) with a direct view of Downtown Los Angeles than UCLA is (about 15 miles away). Academically this school is rising fast and getting more donations in the last few years than it probably has ever gotten in its history previously. This school is basically a gem in a landfill if you are willing to wait for its ascension that will likely occur later in your career. Similar universities in San Bernardino is already ranked around 100 in national university rankings. CSULA likely will have more growth opportunities and I foresee it landing somewhere in the 65-75 national university ranking level within a few decades. 
3. University of California, Riverside: People will laugh at this schools and will choose random California State University over this school even though the University of California system is much more prestigious and is typically considered the greatest university system in the world, public or not. Literally anyone who are eligible to attend a university with a functioning brain and some form of work ethic can probably get into this university right now. The Inland Empire is experiencing rapid economic growth. It’s a huge geographical area with UCR being its consensus and unquestionable flagship university. If UC Merced can be a top 65 national university, UCR can probably be a top 50 university. 
4. Villanova University: This school played its cards rights. It now has an additional campus and another one by 2028. They also have name recognition plus Philly will likely be the center of attention for due to the Sixers and US 250th anniversary. They just moved up to a football league with a lot of prestigious schools. Their basketball program is getting back to blue chip form and academically and from a selectivity standpoint they are progressive extremely well.  Think school won’t be at S-tier level within the next 50 years but it will likely be within the top 15-20 range within that time period of time. 
5. Brigham Young University: They are probably not as loonie as you think they are. At near $4 billion in endowment, extremely cheap tuition and high quality education, it’s the best deal you can probably get even with all the non-academic requirements that probably term some people off. The US is becoming less religious due to the new generation and technological progression and the Mormons are not growing as much in the US although they are growing internationally. Salt Lake City, a city less than an hour away from Provo, is developing pretty well. This means within the next 50 years the very same reasons why they are currently ranked so low and dropped so steep in rankings from their peak two decades or so ago, will likely be the same reason why it will rise dramatically in the future once those reasons dissipate significantly. I believe this university likely could be a 40-50 ranked school within a few decades which is not far from its historical high anyway. 

The whole point of this ranking is to gain as much self-interest as possible. I hate BS payola rankings that does not maximize my personalize interests, which is to help me get the best of everything regardless of what happens to others within the social confines of the world I live in. In my personal world, I believe everything should be based on a zero-sum game as along as it is legally compliant. I will let the government worry about the equality part. After all, you created this world when you opened your eyes and your mind. When all those things are shut, nothing should exist anymore in your world. This is an American led world despite whatever non-Americans think. As such, American and American aligned people’s opinions are the most important when it comes to anything important. This is no different from the past where the strongest and the most sagacious lead. Considering America dominate in almost everything, it doesn’t really matter what non-American locals think about whatever as long as the people and institutions of the most important country in the history of the world nods, then you know you made it.

The world is living in the universe of America, if you don’t like it, you can may possibly leave this world for another world. It feels so good and privileged to be an American and/or an American aligned person when others struggle to reincarnate into one in their next life times. Capitalism is wonderful. Ranking is out of 100. The country and/or region where the college/university is located is considered within the projected 50 year forward outlook period based on its relative global strength and potential funding powers. Rankings based on a 50 year outlook that covers essentially the entirety of one’s working and productive life-time. Unlike other rankings who are pretentious about lay people’s opinions are unimportant or bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate’s degrees have to be judged differently, I see these as nonsensical since most people don’t really give a d*** about such differences, they just need a reference point of the actual school. 50 year outlook based on smoothed out average expected outcome. I believe the best institutions can do whatever it wants to do and do it well. Therefore ranking majors and all that jazz are futile in the long-run. This ranking will only include the top 20 as anything below that are probably not worth ranking or pursuing specifically for. Even if the overall score is the same, there is no such thing as a tie. The difference in ranking between institutions with the same score is perception bias which in real talk it means people do have opinions. Cost of attendance for elite schools will likely be trending toward market rates whatever that is and are typically one-time costs. With more and more colleges getting on the free tuition train, cost of attendance likely would skew unjustifiably any ranking based on a long-term/five decades outlook.

Ranking criteria

Money (M – Premium Over Par): Premium your school’s graduates may command above average rates over other schools’ graduates. Making more than your peers over time definitely adds up quick when compounding. 25 points max. 

Power (P – Control): How much sway you may have in your job versus your peers due to the public trust factor your alma mater provided you with. For example, can you do whatever you want in a legally compliant way and everyone just smiles? This is an indicator of leverage. The stronger the control, the more power one has to say yes or no. 25 points max. 

Respect (R – Rizzability): How much people get rizzed once they know where you went to school. This is a metric that measures prestige, interest and respect one receives which is important to one’s happiness in life. 25 points max. 

Skills (S – Abilities): How much actual capabilities including soft and hard skills does earning a degree from your university get you over attending another school. 25 points max.

20. IIT Madras (M/P/R/S 20/20/20/20=80) Will likely be a tier below the top 15 within the next 50 years but will lead emerging nations’ top universities

In the future, universities have to compete on the world stage in all fronts. This means many of the Ivy League schools that have not strengthened their STEM to world-class levels likely will fall behind probably causing effective disintegration of the “Ivy League.” DEI, legacy and financial handouts probably will need to stop as the game becomes more competitive and resources become more concentrated. This means the top students are gifted genetically with a prestigious background, smarter than their peers and have strong moral and work ethics. The best universities will still be in the US period due a variety of reasons. The English commonwealth system will only produce two top 20 schools and even so only because of historical reasons and concentration of Russell Group funding. Europe is too fragmented to be a united single nation within this century. Australia and Canada won’t be growing too fast and their resources are stretched too thin among too many schools. The big eight in Australia never had any consensus on who is number one in a country with only around 20 million in population. There are hundreds of colleges in Canada with only 40 million in population while the population growth is slowing dramatically. The Latin American countries including Brazil are in America’s backyard and likely won’t experiencing high quality growth any time within this century. India will likely become world’s third largest economy in less than a decade. India’s advantage in speaking English and its huge technically capable workforce will likely yield huge dividends for the county. 

As countries continue to move supply chain out of you know where, India will be a natural destination for investments especially in infrastructure which will allow it to attract even more investments. Contrary to popular belief, AI won’t fully replace humans within the next few decades. Having lots of people who are relatively young is still a desirable trait in a country. Yes, the new Soviet Union will also continue to grow even though its momentum is declining. Their top two universities will likely remain in the top 20 due to unprecedented and unbalanced state sponsored funding pouring into those institutions. The funny thing is, they are likely going to involution themselves to death because no sane Western entity is going to willingly pay a premium or even regular Western prices for their goods due to many reasons which I won’t discuss here. While India will be participating in the low end of the supply chain for a while, their industrial profits will likely be exponentially higher than that of you know where due to the Western powers willing to give their contracts that pays standardized contractual rates to India. America’s number one enemy will eventually give up their efforts as it stands now as their structural existential well-being does not allow them to grant critical thinking skills to their people. Most of their qualified professors are Western trained, they will find it more and more difficult to recruit and remain the top Western trained native descendants as they seal off their countries and increase their hostilities against the West will lead to those people choosing sides, most likely the side of the Western world. 

No sane ranking dares to not rank the Harvards, MITs and Stanfords on top. The game is in the middle of the pack non-American based non-top 10 “global universities.” Education at the end of the day is about power projection of pipelining human resources preparing for the best and the worst. Mexico was literally sending their cadets to fight the Americans to defend the Mexican capital during the Mexican American war which amplifies why pipelining en masse with high quality human resources is so important. America’s number one enemy is unduly out of no where quack ranking “educational marketing” companies to rank highly schools like certain the ones in certain Southeast Asian and authoritarian countries. In what world does credit American ranking institutions that never did global college rankings use the said rankings from the “educational marketing” companies? The ranking criteria for these rankings are shady as the super embassy in a country that had fallen so far from an empire that it will soon be like Paris in demographics and neighborhood composition regardless whether they isolate themselves or not. Education at the end of the day should produce talents. 

Talents are those whose who are not only talented but put their talents into good and productive use for the benefit of society including for themselves. Certain “mainstream” global ranking systems use manipulatable data like publication citations, “employer reputation” among other plausible ranking metrics that appear to be apple to apple comparisons but in reality are total nonsense. Are you telling me the supposed national university of a country more known for ethnic strife and stinky durians is ranked ahead of Dartmouth and Brown? Are you also telling me that the national university of an authoritarian country tiny garden state known for helping America’s number one enemy should be ranked higher than the true leading universities in the world? This is precisely why most of the Western world, even the French, look down upon a country and its institutions that openly allow dictatorships and genocidal human rights abusers to build torture embassies in their capital. Probably the most shameless Western country in the world with more prime ministers elected in a year than their contribution to the world in the last decade.

Why world university rankings are almost always fake and payola-ish.

Anyway, according to their list, all the top universities are English Commonwealth, former colonies or their new colonial master in East Asia. I wonder if anyone is interested to take a Harvard offer over an equivalent offer from the University of Ethnic Strife, Corruption and Stinky Effeminate Durians. It’s truly disgusting the 10 Lost Tribe people are trying to bring America’s number one enemy to ballpark power parity by lobbying on K Street. America is the most powerful and uncompromising country in the world, why should it be bound and taken hostage by the think tanks made up by those who were historically countryless and soulless gypsies. As America’s number one enemy is closing its doors to the world and its own people, America should not allow any of them who are all complicit to enjoy anything that the free world has built. This includes not allowing these people to study outside of the non-enemy country, parade American and Western traitors who represent such countries in the Olympics, help them sell their goods to the outside world and involve in anyway that could potentially help the country and its complicit people. 

If you look at the rankings from these so called global ranking lists, they will never list nor assign proper weight to Global Fortune 500’s actual opinions of the schools nor other real indicators like Western led publications, patent revenue generations, average income per student, Nobel Prize per school etc. I find it extremely Ludacris for the World to rely on ranking lists from a country that doesn’t even represent a speck of authority in the modern world of education, economy nor basically anything else. Why is the world letting potential payola-like processes taking shape when America could easily come up with its own list based-on real criteria that the world actually care about? The citations are literally all a lie in substance because the only people who are realistically citing these sources from America’s number one enemies are the people of America’s number one enemies. Since no one has the intelligence nor the grits to create realistic, replicable, impactful and transparent global rankings, I will release my own rankings soon. 

The greatest asset you could gain by knowing hip pop and street culture is not in investments. In fact, street life and investments are the antithesis of each other. You be surprised how many people in the hood think investments as in “people making money from us to rob us” instead of “people investing in our communities to create jobs for us.” I’m not saying a certain language(s) are the lingua franca of the hood, I am saying the propensity in a trend can’t be ignored. Sentimentalism does not equate to problem solving. No one was born to realpolitik, such skills, boldness and grittiness are developed overtime as a product of an environment.

1. Tupac: Anyone can pre-written verses then put in some fillers and mix with a good beat. Tupac was a revolutionary force. He is more Malcolm X than NOI and LutherFER. If one happy birthday song can conjure a holiday for the common man then the run-on sentences AI is accusing me of committing is a sin without no bearings. He was definitely a problem and a mystery is what ended up happening until three decades later when the politicians needed election meritocracy. And that ain’t no dry snitching, it’s public information. 
2. Eminem: He made hip-hop mean stream where caucasians of all backgrounds started to accept hip-hop as “Caucasian music” with AAVE characteristics. He also made everyone rich. He is basically the Caitlin Clark of hip-hop where everyone got rich of him yet they still hate on him for simply being who he is. 
3. Nas: This art is all about political expression to alleviate the pain from the struggles encountered on the daily. Without no maybe who is gonna to have the baby? Ain’t no fat dude with a fake persona supported by bubble gum baby oil gang going to take away what Nasir accomplished to the realist. 
4. 50 Cent: Fiddy was an economic impact on his own. He made so many people and communities rich, he’s a real civil rights leader that enriched the lives of many. Fiddy made the main demographic group love hood music in the mainstream sense.
5. Lil Wayne: Young Money discovered some of the biggest hip pop artists in the world and really put the dirty dirty back on the map and internationalized/elevated the genre to new heights not ever seen before.
6. DJ Kool Herc: There always have to be a place for the pioneers and mystical figures who helped make the game what it is today. He is the Babe Ruth, Cy Young and Jackie Robinson of hip-hop. A comprehensive history/origination story is important in everything.
7. Nelly: Yep, no one will ever put him into the top 10, but I think people have overlooked his credentials because they don’t know what to look at when reviewing his creds. Nelly is that big guy in the 1970s shooting threes when threes didn’t even technically exist yet. He is an interdisciplinary artist when that word was never popular back in the day. He crossed over hip-hop, R&B with mid to uptown suburbia of all demographics which was a large niche market industry people didn’t find much success in at the time. He was a pioneer in the popularity of hip-hop. 
8. Eazy-E: Being the godfather of G rap means he will always be an important figure in the genre and in music and entertainment history. Think of him as the predecessor that overthrew the imperials but got all his credit taken away in the aftermath of a potential setup to wipe away his legacy as the real godfather of G rap. 
9. Kayne West: A presidential candidate, one of the world’s most important public figures, one of the greatest artists ever, one of the greatest fashion designers ever, one of the most famous people ever. one of the richest African American in history, one of the most important historians of unfiltered truth crossing all aisles of the political spectrum. He is the Elon Musk of celebrities. 
10. Biggie: People liked his flows so he must have done something right from a music standpoint. He also passed away around the same time as Tupac which may have allowed people to remember him for a longer period of time.

In a genre all about personality, authenticity, loyalty, individuality and unity, no sellouts should ever be considered as one of the greatest ever. 

Anyone who lives in America or anywhere in the Democratic West is going to be accused of being a racist one way or another eventually. While America’s number enemy harvest people’s organs, indoctrinate them with non-critical thinking state sponsored hatred, enslaves them and/or torture people in jail and mental hospitals for speaking their minds, America aligned countries are liberal enough where anyone is able to have a voice and an opinion in some way. This is precisely why America and its allies should protect the world by banning enabler’s of America’s number one enemy (the said enemy’s own people and those who choose to do business and complicity hurting America’s interests) from encroaching upon the rights of the non-enablers of the said America’s number one enemy. America should also take special protective measures to protect its intellectually and economically challenged demographic groups from inadvertently enabling America’s number one enemy. 

America’s number one enemy has been doing this for years. A locked door is only a few kicks from being open and a window is just a rock away from being shattered. The only thing preventing the aftermath of the broken window effect is that 99.9999% of the people in the West follow the social contract. The desperados won’t follow such social contracts because in the project or hood or the spiritual project/hood they variously live through or come from follow some type of G-code. We are in the age of hyper competition against enemies domestic and foreign. How does America create a MEI merit-based system that still allow it to be seen as sanctimonious and benevolent as these freedom linked trait spur innovation and happiness? Many of the people who would be considered as permanent underclasses in countries such as America’s number one nemesis that consider humans as livestocks to be harvested for organs for their elites, locked up in concentration camps or mental hospitals for decent or enslave them to benefit from the greedy un-Americans with Ivy League tendencies who consider them as the “10 lost tribes,” share similar exploitative ideals and have been trying to bring these people to “parity” for years along with empowering the “be an ally” crowd in order to emasculate the group that hold the clubs both through environmental/food chemistry, psychological manipulation and economics.

Why knowing rap, beatboxing, street culture and hood lingos could save your life.

The enemies within and foreign nemesis can’t destroy freedom but they are trying to alter America’s “shot selection” by trying to alter its ideals and way of life. They are doing this by presenting America with challenges that entices America to deal with them undemocratically like on the perpetuators “old ancestral lands.” Probably precisely the reason why they are literally hated everywhere they went and were eventually kicked out very much like what traits of America’s number one foreign enemy. In fact, these people are as selfish as America’s number one enemy. Even America’s former number one enemy country hate these people and their supposed ally who is likely scheming to steal the biggest country in the world’s Far East lands. When you speak whatever “lawless inclined” language they speak, you notice the intended perpetuator’s smile to blink ratio goes up. Congratulations, you just increased your survival rate probably by 50%. This applies to violent, heinous and other life threatening misachieves. They may even make you an honor, imagine inviting you to a cookout or “tax” you less. 

Their own thing is about money, power and respect which they feel they didn’t get any in mainstream society. They also feel they are not being treated like model demographic groups. The sad thing is even AI is making excuses for them on why they can’t succeed which is disappointing as this trope will continue to be carried out into the next centuries and ingrained into technological advances. The five elements of hip hop (I believe one of the format may be somewhat grey area/not compliant with laws and regulations which I do not endorse in any way or shape) are well-respected within the subculture. MCing/rapping, break dancing and beatboxing are likely provide rizz charm with that “extra sauce.” I would argue Spanish is an important aspect of the street culture hence complementing your rap derived AAVE skills with Spanish likely will enrich and/or save your life. Don’t confuse fondness with utility. You can absolutely despise something or someone but still find them tremendously useful. AAVE and Spanish in street culture is like two completely opposite forces creating something unique like a PB&J. At the end of the day, America’s number one enemy is already sorting people by a version of their MEI scores. I think the West should keep its way of life but it does need to adopt to a new approach to increase the efficiency of its lowest performing segment of population. 

Between the retirement boom of the laziest generation to Gen Z only staying at a company on average for about one year in the early part of their careers, to AI being predicted to replace everything to loyality is practically gone to the huge divide on many things to rising inequality, rise of socialistic ideals, to the world changing so fast in many unpredictable way and everything else, it’s safe to say the last thing you probably want is more liabilities, commitment and uncertainties. Mental health and happiness is important hence a lot of young people put much emphasis on work life balance. We literally live in a world where video interviews can replace physical interviews and humanoid robots can replace humans for many tasks, including the ones I probably can’t even talk about here. Pretty soon, perhaps biological roles for millenniums might be altered due to alternatives to primitive proliferation methods. There is a reason why the wealthier the demographics group, the less babies they want to have. Even poor countries like America’s number one nemesis is declining significantly in population. The further away people are from existential survival mode, the more they will want a higher quality of life that entails them being the happiest they could be in whatever format within an allowable range within the confines of a society’s structural social contract. The entire marriage law is predicated based on the unspoken/undercurrent of the woman has more rights to the offspring than the man does due to carriage, pain, women being more caring and women being the more vulnerable party in a marriage. 

All of this obviously is an outgrowth from the fact that one is almost never right opening or not opening up the door for a woman and many other unresolved social norm ambiguities in the gender relationships. Having a baby is a huge commitment of time, money and energy for all parties. Having a baby is also a social entanglement event that ties up parties who may not like each other who are forced to work with each other for a long period of time. DINKing, while not having a baby, it’s still getting into a relationship or preserving a relationship with economic interests as an incentive for being with each other in some ways with having a baby always a potential threat in this relationship. First of all, unless you are wealthy, the baby that you raise no matter how much you love him or her will still end up serving a society that benefits the wealthy due to inequality in resource distribution percentages/ratios. If you don’t have capital to begin with, you will almost always earn less than the “risk takers” who “risked” their capital in whatever venture. Why are you bringing another human being into this world who will suffer like you do being not extremely wealthy just for the benefit of the extreme wealthy? The marriage laws from those who support the “be an ally” crowd ultimately make marriages burdensomely insufferable and unequal. Semi quoting a famous person who may have said he likes temporary/acting positions.

Why having babies and DINKing are both terrible ideas due to current marriage laws and social equivocation.

Perhaps marriages should be the same way to give more “flexibility.” In an age most Western countries have personal bankruptcy laws, why can’t there be concepts similar personal bankruptcy law principles applied to marriages where marriages can be terminated at anytime unilaterally without any harm done to either parties and the baby can go to the state welfare system for the patrons of the “be an ally” crowd to raise them on their own dimes since they are the biggest beneficiaries of society being the way it is now. Yes, of course this is class brinkmanship but it is also the economic reality as well. Even America’s biggest enemy, the evilest country and entity in this world who harvest organs and enslave people, is unable to force people to have babies. Why? Because they want the same people who have babies also raise the babies on their own dimes in a high quality way. Having babies is a losing proposition regardless whether there is a tax on condoms or not. A baby will cost the primary bread maker everything they have between taking care of the baby and taking care of the person who supposedly take care of them and the baby. Then someone tells them the custody to the baby after the divorce should go to the woman and they have to pay much of their income for child support and alimony even if they had a prenup. Then society also favors the woman in every implicitly bias way. What man under these conditions would wisely and willingness want babies or any legally binding potential relationships if they knew any better or thought through it thoroughly. 

That’s why they want men to marry early because the more they think about it and the older they get, the less they want to get married. Once they work in workplaces with even a few people from certain demographic groups, they probably would have a different opinion on marriage. It’s almost never about being fertile as many men can still reproduce in their 50s and 60s or older, it’s all about the time pressure tacit within the confines of “a sucker is born every day/ignorance is bliss” BS. A country like South Korea, however I may think about its societal structure/appeasement of America’s number one enemy etc., is pouring massive amount of resources in order to see a slight upward increase in birth rates. The lesson here is, having a baby doesn’t benefit the regular people as much as it benefits the elite controlled structural society. Regular people should get massive incentives to maintain this structure or the elites can replace current reproduction methods with technology. Either way, as long as the elites still want other people to create future soldiers and modern slaves for them, they need to pay for it. Nothing is free in life, not even for the elites. If the elites want DEI instead of MEI, they should pay for all that to maintain “societal harmony.” The number one enemy of America is spending a large portion of their GDP on such infrastructure including human capital in maintaining their system of oppression, the elites in the West will not get a “hometown discount” nor a free pass on that. They should pay for it just like any other control carving entities do. 

After all, bride buying, bride abductions and bride prices still exist. Why don’t the “be an ally” crowd and their patron saints do something about that? They can’t and won’t. Because they are only able to work within a democracy through money lobbies and will chicken out against real organ harvesting, gulag building, genocide conducting, oppressive pure evilnatis. They funded these people throughout the centuries like they funded Japan during the Russo war, they are constantly telling us their people and governments are two different thing yet it’s people are enabling the government. These funders should be on the frontlines to fight these people and the government not the regular American aligned people. The regular people should hold these funders and their associates now or in the future through blood ties or otherwise responsible in pepertuity. This is how America’s number one enemy does it. What gets a lot of people upset is the oldest profession in the world historically has always been somewhat allowed for many different reasons yet the elites have lobbied for laws that force people to get married just to secure what they need biologically and economically instead of this being a freely transactional exchange without any obligations with state provided testing, prevention and protection that could be afforded to both parties equally and institutionalized through the issuance of business licenses and promoted utilizing both stage and private communication apparatuses in a morally condoning way as part of true equality where genders rely on their own merits and utilize whatever gifts and natural abilities they were granted to get whatever they need. That’s true equality not handouts from other people’s pockets. That’s how various demographics can earn true respect in the context of inter-demographic relations where different parties feel like they AEI (Actually Earned It) not DEI. No matter how much the elites tries make marriage into something sentimental and inspirational like love and faith, the daily grind of living will always bring it back to salt and butter. If the elite refuse to resolve the problems they brought upon generational I, why should they bring the same issues upon generational II who are probably better being unborn in the first place under such conditions. Especially a baby can’t be made without the DNA of a man yet the elite through their apparatuses try to convince people the other party is more important in this whole process including the raising of the baby. At some point some people are going to say something akin to “no reproduction without equal representation.”

Many of my previous posts are about getting attractive returns by efficiently utilizing little to no resources. That’s the tangible aspect of a wise business move. The intangible part is probably a lot more important. Most of us spend way more on pleasing our own internal selves than anything else. Much of our purchases and energy expenditures are impulsive. It has nothing to do with discipline and everything to do with pleasing ourselves. This is why you frequently buy things or order services you didn’t really need. From an optimization standpoint, there is probably always a better deal somewhere else but yet we frequently jump on the things we can easily get our hands on. Since many people work and have other priorities, spare leisure time is hard to come by and most people don’t have time to make the most optimal spending decisions. This is why it’s important to expand your hobby base by becoming more versatile through obtaining an extensive amount of knowledge about everything including collectibles. 

Yes, I talk about a lot of things a lot including collectible cards. I also invest in many different investments including coins, stamps, banknotes, vinyl, DVDs and many more other types of investments, alternative assets or not.  At the end of the day, you don’t always get to pick what you want to invest in due to timing, cash flow and opportunity costs among other factors. When you are at a yard sale, do you always know what is going to be available for sale and do you frequently not buy something because you don’t know much about certain items? When you do want to buy a huge lot of something, can you always buy that in one place all the time? The bottomline is you are more of a trashman than a corporate procurement agent. The things people are trying to sell are usually near trash in their heads otherwise they would have either sold those things in auctions or liquidated them to the big guys at heavy discounts. Let me repeat again, whatever you are buying as a regular person are typically trash in someone else’s mind otherwise they would not have sold those things to you at whatever price and you would not have bought those because you most likely either can’t afford it or don’t want to pay that price.

Why collecting is more than meets the eye and how it actually makes you more successful.

The key here is the expectation and judgment arbitrage. As the little guy you will never get any good deals worth your time based on standard expectations. You make money at your level when you do this kind of things through expectation arbitrage. If people thought it was worth a lot more in that very situation, they would not have tried to sell it to you. Just remember, the most expensive things in life usually do not start out as being expensive. When it is expensive, you as the little guy will probably never be able to get an opportunity to own it. The lesson here is it is almost never about the nominal price, it’s about uncovering the hidden value. Most GDP reported numbers are inflation adjusted not based on the nominal growth. That nuance is critical not just because price does not always equal to value but the fact that it’s about purchasing power with or without the anchoring of the fiat currency. When people had to barter millenniums ago, the value of something had always been about value not the fiat medium of exchange money. The 1997 Barry Sanders Marvel Wolverine card was literally a dollar or two about 30 years ago, now it’s upwards of $10K USD in top condition. 

The Nuts and Bolts and many of Jordan insert cards were literally a dollar or two 30 years ago and even then wasn’t too easy to sell at that time, now many of these cards are thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in top condition. That 1990-1991 Hoops two certain audience members in the background card was basically a common card years ago now it’s at least hundreds of dollars in top condition. You get my point? It’s almost never how much something cost, it’s about what you know or can predict with a high probability of success that arbitrages expectations and translate into value investing. On the other hand, if you invested huge amounts into 1989 Upper Deck Griffey or the other junk wax era cards, you probably didn’t do all that well. Why? Because the expectation arbitration didn’t consistently exist back then when everyone overvalued those cards by discarding economic principles. I wasn’t going to talk about this but since you are reading this, I will let you know something I believe may hold true in the future. In the future, when time and space become less of a limiting factor, digital real estate will likely become a thing. Right now the biggest hurdle preventing even more online activities are the lack of teleportation, understanding of the human brain neural network, unlimited energy, space and speed of light traveling, sensory experiences like smelling/touching/feeling virtually among other technological limitations. However, eventually capitalism is going to have the incentive to breakthrough those limitations. 

This likely means digital properties will become more and more accepted hence more demand therefore more valuable. Regardless how technology progress, humanistic concepts like a door, space, portal and such will likely be needed. At this moment, all four letter .com domains have been taken and the 5 letter .com domains likely will be gone soon. People will always want a way to communicate ideas and such. Having a door that allows such communication especially with words that allow for such effective communication will likely be welcomed in whatever format, domain name or not. Obviously that’s just one of an iceberg amount of opportunities that may currently exist, I’m just saying it’s never about what is being believed, rather, it’s about what you believe may hold true and is later vindicated by such truth in your own conceptual image. No one is ever going to be always right forever, it has always been a probability game and a game of endurance and liquidity to get through the resource crunch. You only know what you know when you know and opportunity are only opportunities for those who sees an opportunity as an opportunity. You know what I mean if you know what I mean?

The answer is obviously it depends but in general, many non-safety related rule changes are meant to make the game more entertaining. To put it simply, people like winners even when they temporarily root for the underdog. When the underdog stop winning, people look at them differently. Conversely, when the underdog becomes the big dog, people will temporarily not root for them any more but eventually they will come around and admire their greatness. One of the biggest reasons why GOAT is no longer the GOAT is because of rule changes. As soon as a new record is broken, future media coverage will talk extensively about the new record holder and the old record holder becomes just a line item on a list. The reality is almost every single card you buy during the mid to highest peak of a non-GOATesque player’s career will likely end up worth a lot less than what you paid for both nominally, inflation adjusted and when opportunity cost is taken into account.  There is almost no exception to this trope of a rule that occurs every single year beginning with their overhyped and overpriced rookie cards when they were first introduced. 

The prices on those just go downhill from there year after year unless the player who is on that card continues to meet or exceed expectations year after year. Even then they have to be marketable as a player/celebrity, have a good perceived public image and all of that. You know what many sports fans like? They like high-scoring, fast pace actions and seeing records being broken. True, some like elite defenses too but not as much as they like seeing high-octane offenses. The NBA is known to change game rules to expand the sport. One prominent rule change they did was introducing the three-point shot in the late 1970s. They also encouraged dunking during the same period. In the 2000s they also eliminated hand-checking which made scoring relatively easier. NFL did similar things with passer protection, 5-yard contact and two-point conversion rule changes throughout the years.

Prospecting rookie cards: What happens to the status of existing GOATs who already retired when game rules change. 

MLB, which probably did the least in this department still helped scoring by putting restrictions on pitching and defenses along with introducing favorable rules for the DH position. A record is a record regardless whatever nuances is being put into it. Yes, Bonds is not in the Baseball Hall of Fame now and yes they try to put an asterisk on his record, but no, his record still stands. They vacate wins and championships/bowl wins in NCAA/FBS but those statistics are still shown and reported on. Marketability is only a coefficient just like a 1/1 RPA is only a multiplier. Are the 1/1 RPA of non-GOATesque players actually worth that much in the long-run? The GOAT/GOATesque RPAs can cost tens of millions, the same type of cards featuring a non-GOATesque may only be worth .0000000001% of that. The tiniest difference in feature frequently can mean huge pricing differences. What happened when grading costs from major grading companies became somewhat cost prohibitive? What happened to the downstream market for the less than 30 dollar cards? 

Momentum, perceived slight differences and other impacts on the peripheral impact card valuation tremendously. At the end of the day, it’s just economics. When I look at the landscape of the entire GOAT/GOATesque seen, there is realistic only one person who is likely going to withstand the test of time within the next 100 years. LeBron joined the Philly at the right time at the American 250th birthday in a city that essentially created the new America with a tenacious attitude that America was built upon with its economy and sporting teams on the rise. Pennsylvania has some of the best universities in the world and many of these universities are on the rise. LeBron realistically will have the incentive and backing from the league to play for at least five more years. The NBA doesn’t have a replacement for LeBron yet and literally there is literally no one who is alive right now that could eventually join the NBA that could replace LeBron right now. 

LeBron playing on the same team and/or playing in the NBA while his two sons are a wholesome moment in sports history and will have great impacts on the future development of certain demographic groups that have been some of the lowest performing, subsidy heavy groups in US history. Physically LeBron can probably play for another 10 years at a starter level. When you think about the amount of championships and points that LeBron can obtain in the next three to five years, you will come to realize LeBron’s career and records are probably irreplicable. With all the fluff why LeBron is disliked, when you actually examine it all closely, you will come to the realization he is in many aspects as clean as a public figure can be image wise even if he talked about party/parties or weighted into politics. Americans like fast-pace action and they love underdogs with American associations. This is why I also think soccer will never truly take off in America within the next 50 years and Ronaldo will be the more GOATesque over Messi even though I believe there is no solid consensus GOAT in that sport due to having so many leagues playing in so many different tournaments.

The United States Alternative Assets Collectible Cards Composite Index (USAACCCI) update for September 1, 2026.

My following commentary from last month still stands: “The market is currently experiencing a market correction especially on the TCG side along with the summer lull. I believe the TCG correction on the modern cards are long overdue. The reality is many collectors either don’t even know most of the new Pokemon or even bothered to watch any of the new Pokemon episodes after than original series featuring the original 151 Pokemon. Unfortunately even the WOTC have not been spared at the lower to mid range markets. I personally think if the WOTC common non-holo or same period non-English official Pokemon cards are super cheap, it might not be a bad idea to load up on those within a few hundred dollars range.”

The masked man, the author and K decided to send an underwater drone to explore the river first. Just when the drone reaches tens of feet below surface, the drone’s battery died forcing them to pull the drone out of the water. From the drone footages, they were however able to determine the oozing is caused by air bubbles from below the river bed. All three of them are excellent swimmers and they were able to easily reach the riverbed. They located the origination point of the bubbles and saw a huge stone structure clearly halfway submerged into the riverbed that blocked them from going down any further. 

The front door of the structure featured various tablets each with a unique symbol carved on to it. They ran out of air underwater so they decided to comeback to the surface to regroup. After resting a bit, the author remembered that once when he was a child he had seen that structure and the carvings on the tablets in a photograph. He suddenly remembered something important and wasted no time flipping through the pages of the patriarch’s diary until he found what he was looking for, a picture of the structure with the carved tablets rearranged. This appears to be the answer they were looking for. Just as they were about to get back to the riverbed again, K accidentally dripped water onto one of the pages. 

The author immediately tried to wipe the water droplet from the page, only to be shocked by a new discovery. It appears that there are hidden invisible ink that revealed a map of some sort. The author spent a good few minutes analyzing the map before the masked man told them it will be dark in a few hours and they are running low on food, the priority now is to follow-up on their only clue to finding the monastery by decoding the tablets. Within ten minutes, they gathered their belongs and swam to the riverbed again. The author, without hesitation, pushed the tablets in a certain order and like magic, a pathway opened in the riverbed. A strong current pulled the three of them into the structure and below the riverbed.

Once inside of the cave, they were stunned by the captivating aragonite crystals hanging from the cave roof. The mask man took a heavy object from his backpack and threw it into the water to estimate the depth of the body of water. He then put a drone underwater to explore. It was determined that the underwater environment was very complex. It was then that the author, the masked man and K decided to first explore the cave. After rowing for a few hours, they hear the sounds of a water fall. The current was moving too rapidly for them to sail back forward. The masked man made a lasso out of a rope and looped around a huge rock nearby then all three of them pull the packraft toward the boulder. 

The masked man assembled a portable heavy-duty hang glider on the boulder that normally could carry two people. The masked man then directed both the author and K to only keep the essentials in their backpack and throwaway everything else to lower their overall weight. They then positioned the hang glider forward as they rowed toward the edge of the waterfall. Right before they reached edge of the waterfall before the huge drop, all three of them grabbed the glider and glided down to the river bank. They then search the area for a few more area before reaching the cliff. At this point, they were exhausted and hungry so they decided to set up camp first. After eating and resting, they discussed their findings among themselves. They then came to the realization that no one had ever been to the monastery before and that the tale of the monastery only exists in folklore. 

There are literally no photos nor any verifiable proof that the monastery ever existed. Both the masked man and K believe the monastery may not be at this location if it was even real in the first place. The author took out a small diary that contained a drawing of the monastery. He mentions that this diary belong to the patriarch of the family who visited the monastery frequently. After closely examining the drawing and reading the text in the diary, they were able to confirm the location of the monastery had plants around it that are normally associated with environments with little to no sunlight which would explain why the monastery would be able to obtain the rare plant that also did not need sunlight to survive. Their eyes lit up when they noticed the bubbles oozing out of the water.

NBA

Growing global sport with future potential as a major rival to soccer in a few decades.

1. LeBron James: I said this many times, by the time his career ends and after a decade or two, people’s opinions will likely shift and lean toward him being the GOAT due to his overall “body of work,” extreme longevity, his kid(s) playing in the NBA along side him, individual accolades, “era adjustment” and cultural impact. I am accumulating LeBron base and insert cards now which can be bought for maybe less than a quarter per card for the base and a few dollars for many of his current inserts at this point. 
2. Michael Jordan: One of the greatest of all time, GOAT for some, however, his lack of individual records, relatively short career, having essentially all his accomplishments eclipsed by various players, lack of true social and cultural impact and teams and rely heavily on the myth/legend/charisma will likely mean he won’t be able to continue to bring a wide enough future generation into his “GOAT” camp. I have significantly decreased my position in Jordan cards from over 10,000 cards to almost nothing since the pandemic. 
3. Kareem Abul-Jabbar: His biggest issue has always been his personality and his polarizing ways akin to Ali due to reasons I won’t say here. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
4. Wilt Chamberlain: The team success was what he lacked the most, more than potential character issues. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
5. Bill Russell: Great team player with great team success but with little individual accolades. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
6. Magic Johnson: An overall great player with a relatively short career. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
7. Larry Bird: An overall great player with a relatively short career. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
8. Tim Duncan: Great player who played for a small-market team. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
9. Stephen Curry: He is not better than Kobe now but by the end of his career, he will edge out Kobe due to his legacy and many other reasons that out of respect for Kobe I won’t detail here. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
10. Shaquille O’Neal: Being on TV a lot definitely increased his cultural impact. He is on this list and not Kobe mostly due to image issues and his dominance as the undisputed greatest pure overpowering center of all-time. When you think about big, overpowering big man, you think of Shaq. Jordan and Kobe are too similar as players for Kobe to be considered as the first thought on most people’s minds when thinking about the NBA guard position. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.

NFL

From a global perspective, this sport will likely not have significant growth in the next few decades. For most of the world the sport is just too brutal and reminds them of “American Hegemony.” 

1. Tom Brady: Great player but will likely will barely be the GOAT in a sport that most players don’t player both offense and defense. Brady’s cards will likely not command the type of true GOAT premium that typically hold true for solid GOAT in other major sports. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
2. Patrick Mahomes: Will likely share a piece of the GOAT titular when his career is over. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
3. Jerry Rice: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
4. Jim Brown: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards. 
5. Emmitt Smith: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
6. Walter Payton: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards. 
7. Lawrence Taylor: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards. 
8. Joe Montana: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards. 
9. Barry Sanders: Great player but not GOAT in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards. 
10. Jalen Hurts: There are only a single digit number of QBs who won multiple Super Bowls in NFL history. Hurts will likely have more passing yards and passing TDs than many of the greatest on that list. Plus his running is a huge plus. This is a fragmented era in NFL History. Yes Rogers, Allen, Aikman, Bradshaw and many others appear to be better than him in certain categories, however, from a pace standpoint, he will likely be an overall better player from a holistic standpoint in the future. I believe his rookie cards are extremely undervalued right now. 

MLB

Baseball as a global sports definitely has room to grow due to a variety of reasons including already being popular in parts of Asia and South America. Many countries play sports similar to baseball like Cricket and Lacrosse therefore baseball as a sport probably has a lot of potentials on the global stage. 

1. Barry Bonds: The records speak for itself regardless of everything else. I own a lot of his rookie cards.
2. Babe Ruth: Legendary and a myth. Will probably always be one of the greatest in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
3. Shohei Ohtani: Greatest two-way player ever. Likely will come up short being of the GOAT of the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
4. Hank Aaron: Legendary and a myth. Will probably always be one of the greatest in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
5. Willie Mays: Legendary and a myth. Will probably always be one of the greatest in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
6. Jackie Robinson: Legendary and a myth. Will probably always be one of the greatest in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
7. Albert Pujols: A player getting 700 home runs, 3,000 hits, a championship and without much controversy is probably top 10 worth in MLB for the near future. 
8. Pete Rose: Great player, I’m not going to talk about the other stuff. Either way, I no longer own the over 1,000 Rose autos I got for a few dollars each….
9. Cy Young: The pitching award is named after him. He has over 500 wins….probably an unbreakable record for years to come. He is basically like the MTG Alpha Black Lotus card of MLB pitcher. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.
10. Mickey Mantle: Legendary and a myth. Will probably always be one of the greatest in the sport. I personally don’t have significant card position in his cards.

Based on estimates, WOTC probably printed around 13 billion official Pokemon cards in English, maybe another 2 billion in whatever other languages Pokemon cards and another 5 billion in Japanese cards from the same era by a company that I shall not name during the same period. 20 billion official Pokemon cards printed during the vintage era of eight years or so seemed a lot. It actually kind of rivals the junk wax era. The truth is much less stark than that in terms of current supplies. Pokemon was mostly collected by kids back in the day unlike sports cards and other collectibles. The attrition rate of these early Pokemon official cards were massive with some estimate to be around 90% of the total bulk/common and 30% of the holo from the official Pokemon card sets from that era were destroyed, missing or in extremely poor conditions. Since Pokemon is a respectable franchise, no one is probably making any more of these cards from that period. The supply of these cards are also shrinking due to poor storage, lack of incentives to take care of them due to lower value and for whatever other reasons. In essence, there are probably a few hundred million to a billion or two that are effective circulatable at this point. 

The longer the prices depresses for these older cards, the longer these cards will continue to shrink in circulatable size. Based on simple estimates of attribution rate based on current trajectory, I think by 2040 most likely these WOTC era official Pokemon cards’ circulatable size will be in the mid to low hundreds of millions range. For context, during the junk wax era, cards companies probably produced billions of sports cards a year. Pokemon is so massive that it is truly its own category in terms of card collecting and guess how many independent companies not collaborating with Pokemon can print official Pokemon cards? For comparisons, Topps alone printed probably tens of billions possibly hundreds of billions of baseball cards in its history, there are probably at least a few billion vintage Topps baseball cards that are circulatable even now and if you count the junk wax era, probably in the tens of billions.

Why buying bulk WOTC era Pokemon cards super cheap is a good idea.

Topps was only one of the many companies printing licensed MLB cards back in those days. Many of those cards were taken care of much better, even the parents who wanted to throw away their kids’ cards probably thought twice because many of them knew sports cards can be worth some money. Not many parents probably felt the same way about Pokemon cards during the vintage era. When you think about it, the junk wax period in sports card likely ended before the first official Pokemon cards were ever printed therefore if you just go by calendar years, you could possibly say the junk wax era cards were vintage cards as at least 25 years have gone by since they been printed. The bottomline is, the market has not priced in the supply scarcity of these WOTC lower-end cards yet and especially when grading costs may be so probability high that it may not even be worth it to grade some of these lower-end cards. However, when the supply of these become critical low enough that everyone start talking about it, if the grading mechanism is still strong at that point or something else takes its place, these cards will likely significantly increase in value much like Jordan cards or 1990s basketball insert cards. At a few cents per common at bulk pricing and most of them seem to actually be in decent condition, it’s literally a numbers and calendars game at this point. 

I think a good reference point for these bulk/common cards would be equivalent to late 1950s and 1960s common cards in decent to good conditions. Many of these cards regularly sell online for a few dollars. Back in those time, these common cards were probably worthless considering a whole cello pack that contained around 12 cards and a bubble gum was probably retailing for 10 cents. 10 cents is worth over a dollar in 2026 and if invested into S&P 500 is about 90 dollars. When you think about it, there likely some expensive cards in each set in Topps during those years and even if a card from the cello pack in near mint condition will likely sell for 100 dollars plus a card with some going for more, keeping the cards, never mind a mint cello pack which probably is worth a few thousand dollars today, probably will be a better investment than investing into S&P 500 even discounting the liquidity risk. When you think about it, aren’t vintage Pokemon cards also trending in that direction with how much the sealed packs and boxes are worth and how much premium those holos in mint conditions get? 

The only difference is the WOTC official Pokemon common/bulk Pokemon cards haven’t caught up in prices of those vintage 1950s and 1960s Topps baseball cards yet. A lot of places have boxes of these bulk vintage cards for around a dollar for one or two. If you are able to get bulk deals to cut that cost to a few cents per card even if you can’t pick which cards you get from the vintage WOTC official Pokemon cards bulk collection, it still likely will be an excellent deal in the future considering how much people now care about benchmarking based on “comparables” and almost every negotiation in cards is arbitrary about why something is or is not kind of like card grading in some ways, though that issue might be resolved in the future due to standardization of criteria though AI grading like how calibration and precision manufacturing where tolerance specifications are set and deviation from such specifications are strictly limited to extreme small margins. 

These shares literally don’t belong to the company that you think you are buying into. They are basically akin in results to a Ponzi scam. America’s number one nemesis is tacitly allowing their companies, which they have the final say in everything they do, to scam Americans out of trillion plus dollars even though it is illegal per the said nemesis’ own laws for any foreign issuance outside of their country. While these companies “IPO” and make trillions through selling of their “shares” that never was while also being able to collateralize their fake and real shares else where to get enough more money out else where. America’s number one enemy owe the West nearly $2 trillion dollars and it continues to accrue interest. Although the nemesis refuse to pay even though these debts were issued by its own sovereign governments years ago which they assumed power over the territories. 

From a leverage standpoint, in a time of great conflict, America and its America aligned allies could easily use such debts as leverage to legitimately cancel the debts owed to the said nemesis without affecting the existing world order. If the nemesis does not comply, there are even strong leverages like keeping them limited in the existing financial system which will make their lives extremely difficult as they rely heavily on international trade. In addition to more targeted tariffs, America and its allies could also utilize collateralizing their foreign operations which are worth many trillions of dollars that they rely upon to digest their extreme over capacities that boost their GDP numbers. This also means to “help” strengthen their GDP internet “firewalls” by not allowing foreign advertisers to give their companies access to market their products overseas. Secondary sanctions along with primary sanctions will ensure they behave the way America and its allies wants it to behave. The country was literally founded by an American born citizen and supported with American funds. America has every right to repossess the nation it founded for the benefit of greater human good.

The $1 trillion dollar foreign nemesis VIE issued ADR “scam” and the blue print to destroy America’s number one enemy.

Due to the extreme true high unemployment rate in the said America’s number one nemesis, its people are literally VPNing their way onto American platforms either by selling their physical goods, services or making videos to earn income. Yet these same people do not support American ideals to change their country for the better. Biting the hand that fed it is what they have done for millenniums. In their own history, when they become power, they always bully other people and eradicate them. Why should America and its allies be so benevolence toward such evil civilization that literally create most of the evilest things in this world? They literally created the most vile torture methods in the world and created the original weapons of mass destruction to bring hell on earth. America and its allies must see through its evil and destroy such evilness before it destroys them. Many of its people are fed propaganda and many of their people in America hate America by not assimilating into American and American aligned culture. Many of these people would help the said number one nemesis of America when they get a chance to. It is extremely important to associate its government and its people together as both are the true enemies of America and its allies. Separating the two is nonsensical. Therefore America should ban their people from obtaining an American and American allied education and implement secondary sanctions on anyone who helps them. 

Their population is decreasing for a reason as they do not believe in god/God/GOD and only believe in themselves and their evil ordeals to destroy the world into their own image. Their people especially their young people use to hate on America and its allies on social media everyday. Now they are unemployed, poor, must work like a slave via 996/007 and not being paid a wage nor benefits tacitly allowed by its government, lose their job when they turn 30 due to de facto age discrimination, they don’t have time to hate in America and its allies that much anymore. America and its allies should never forget nor forgave such transgressions as they know these people will go for the jugular when they have the chance to. While America and its allies weaken its friends like Russia and Iran to the level of Venezuelan and Cuba, America should force it to comply with sanctions and help broker a more advantageous deal with its allies or face more sanctions that it cannot afford. America should also force it to pay for Covid destruction in reparation payments or else face the consequences. America and its allies should also organize its diaspora communities formerly allied to the said number one nemesis to set up exile governments overseas. These exile governments will be responsible for conducting various operations inside of the said countries independent of America and America’s allies. 

America should slowly build up missile defenses in Asia and the country of Taiwan. Such nuclear enabled stations will help ensure America’s allies are protected from bullying behaviors. America should also build nuclear waste stations near the number one enemies door steps to better utilize its idle waste processing capabilities. Air dumping or anti-dumping measures in their near seas/shores would help alleviate the trash they have created by dumping cheap goods. America should start these actions by reciprocating the actions of the number one nemesis by restricting trade of their companies in America and its allies. When necessary, putting sanctions on their state-owned banks that finance these companies might also be great ideas. America should stop trading the government and its people different, instead encourage dissent within the country by offering free passage for those who legally subvert against their government through American and America allies sanctioned actions. The said number one nemesis and its government are literally laughing at America for separating the two entities when they are one all long and figuring out how to destroy America when they get a chance to. 

Their history is full of brutality of ethnically eradication not so different from what they are currently doing on their Western part now. They are actively stealing and taking hostile actions against America by harming American/American allied companies’ interests, stealing from American and American allies’ organizations through IP theft/hacking/scams including phone and phishing scams. Their economy is extremely weak as most of their people have lost their savings due to the collapse of the real estate market by over 60% and unwise investments in technology that were never advanced in the first place due to sanctions. Their local, provincial governments and banks are pending a major collapse. Their real GDP is closer to the negatives. This is the perfect time for America and its allies to hammer them. 

AI stocks will likely drag everybody else down very soon. As a student of history, you may already know this pattern has persisted throughout history. We are not ready for the type of AI being preached by the AI evangelists as a species yet. There is no way the world is prepared for most people to not have a job because of AI. Regardless how far long the technology is at now, the type of AI revolution being touted now likely won’t happen any time soon. It’s the poor and nothing to lose nations that love AI, not so much by average Westerners and residents of wealthy nations. Even authoritarian governments fear AI because it might empower those who simply have nothing to lose as they try to find an equalizer. Compounding that with global fragmentation, the geopolitics, privacy issues and many other issues you can think of. The biggest issue is the permanent replacement transition that will likely cause all kinds of social problems. 

For one, UBI is not really a thing anywhere right now as many people and governments, probably rightfully so, believe people will become disincentivized to work if they get some kind of living wage UBI. It’s a chicken and egg situation. If there is no UBI, what will happen to all the workers who will be fully replaced by AI among other technological advances? There is simply no path that will allow AI, humanoid robots and other advances to fully replace human beings without causing historical conflicts that will derail much of the progress made throughout the centuries. There literally are robotaxis, self-driving cars and automated cooking machines at the moment that could replace human beings doing these jobs, but it’s not this far. Why? Because transitions take time and you can’t really cut the consumer out of a job that allow them to consume the automated services that the capitalists are dreaming of.

AI crash coming. 

When technology like everything else become commonplace, profit margins will invariably drop, like everything else. When the ATM became a thing, bank teller per branch dropped but their overall number increased for years due to rapid expansion of bank branch due to lower operating costs. Then came the smartphone that took away many teller jobs but their overall number much of the teller workforce also upskilled into more relationship/analysis/IT-adjacent roles. Yes, you guessed it, the human is still part of the equation even though technology has shifted. Computers, smartphones, electronics and anything technology related have essentially all became relatively cheaper overtime for the same or similar technologies. Even with much better features and inflation, the leading smartphones actually gotten cheaper over time when you adjust for hardware and software difference and inflation versus previous years’ models. 

Point being, AI completely or even partially replacing human beings at work will likely not happen any time soon as consumerism depends on people making a wage and spend. If there is no collection/distribution of AI tax and no UBI, this economic model won’t work hence it likely won’t happen any time soon. AI industry growth at its current pace will likely stop within a year or two but AI as an industry will likely not collapse within the next five to ten years. AI is only in its infancy stages at this moment. On average, it takes at least a few years for mass adoption of a certain technology and a few years for it to integrate with everything if it integrates at all. Eventually more and more AI companies will go under just like with any other technological product cycles. In the long-run, there will be no AI companies, there will only be companies that use AI to do business if AI does become commonplace. Think about the dot com boom and all the other booms. Eventually, they all got absorbed into the ecosystem. 

Humans are the protagonist in this story that everyone wants them to do well. If humans were the protagonists, there likely won’t be any motivation for humans to progress. Think about this, what happened to most of the dot com companies? They either went under or got absorbed. Very few survived under their old business models. Why? Become internet and the website is more of a commonplace utility utilized by virtually every single entity on this planet than some exclusive, monopolistic technology. You know what kind of companies came out of the dot com crash stronger than ever? Those that were able to integrate internet into everyday life and those that support high complex business needs of enterprises. All these companies have super strong brand equity, proprietary technology and wide and deep moats. They also don’t just play defense. They will frequently acquire competitors and spend heavily on R&D to give their moats more breathing room or acquire/develop new lines of businesses to build castles with new moats. 

K sent an email to corporate requesting a few more days of additional PTO via mobile phone. Within half an hour, K’s PTO request was approved. The author and the masked man organized the trip including the logistics. After a few hours of car ride, they arrived at the foot of the sacred mountain at dawn. The masked man told his people to wait at the foot of the mountain. After about a six-hour hike deep into an ancient forest, K, the author and the masked man arrived at the upper portion of the mountain. To get to the monastery, they had to scale a steep and narrow cliff walkway carved out of rock. Once they arrived atop of the summit above the clouds, they had to walk across a dangling woods bridge nestled between the two mountain peaks. One mishap, a miles-long drop taking at least 30 seconds will probably ensue. 

A few moments later, K, the author and the masked man arrived on the other side only to find a lush forest covered in snow as far as the eye can see. Upon entering the forest, it was already in the early afternoon with a muted glow from the sky and they were immediately surrounded by a thick layer of dense fog. Traversing in half a foot of snow with each step, they were exhausted after three hours of searching for the monastery to no avail. At this point, the sun has set and they were shivering from the cold and they were lost in the forest. The situation got even worse when the tent they were trying to set up was carried away by strong gust and is nowhere to be found. There was no phone signal on the top of the mountain, they only have enough food rations for a light meal and they were deep in the forest. They never expected it would be this cold and didn’t anticipate how difficult it was to find the monastery. 

They knew their chances of survival in these conditions were extremely low. The only way they could survive at this point is to find shelter to get through the night. The masked man cleared the snow from a small area beneath his feet, put his ear to the ground and listened intently for any kind of sound. He was able to determine there was a cavern system underneath with water flowing to a nearby location. With his knowledge of gravity, topography and distinguishing direction by utilizing the moon, the masked man was able to lead K and the author the entrance to a karst cave on a lake. After inflating the packraft, they paddled into the cave.

Let’s be honest here. Being overqualified will come with age. If you just barely get started professionally and know almost nothing, you are probably young. If you are very experienced and get the “overqualified” label, it’s because of ageism derived complications. This label comes with many names such as being jaded, arrogant, destabilize the younger manager’s position in the company etc. Anyone who is lucky enough to get to that age stage will probably experience it in one form or another. This is why I preach people should be diversifying their skill sets at an early age. When you are just starting out, show only enough competency to get by but do not show any brilliance at all. 

This is kind of like patents. Sure you are “protect by the law,” do you have the resources to defend those rights in the long-term? Build up competencies in a multitude of fields and legally leach off the leaders. Then slowly strengthen your weakness and drift on the strength of others like certain “America’s number one nemesis” has been doing for years until they recently shown their hands, though they showed their hands too early and will likely pay greatly for their detrimental mistake eventually. Their population will get smaller and older than rich unfortunately. Remember, a resume/CV is basically a marketing brochure about your capabilities. You can be selective about what you put on there.

How to get past the ageism “overqualified” label and secure that job to survive. 

Companies worry that hiring overqualified people will increase turnover, hurt internal dynamics, bring insecurity out of people and more. Obviously each person’s situation is different but I think when possible, try to only include relevant experiences from the last 10 years. If you are applying for a non-managerial position, you might not want to highlight managerial experiences on your resume. Ultimately, you will want the interviewers to ask you questions related to the job since your objective is to get that job you applied for. More than anything else, the more important thing is the change of mentality. Most people don’t like to work for other people and getting told what to do. However, you have to remember why you need this job. 

You need this job not because you are trying to gain experience but rather, you need the money. Your pride is essentially worthless in this situation to the employer. You have to decide whether you are willing and able to swallow your pride to “come out of the bench” and let the other person get the shine. If you could get that position in a timely manner for which you are not overqualified for, you probably would probably have gone with those options instead of trying to lower your own standards. Ultimately working for other people will always be just temporary and transitory as you are essentially hired and get to maintain your job because the organization needs you at that moment. The money comes from working for yourself and building brand equity. But since you need to first survive, this methodology is  probably what you needed.

You know why some people are able to make millions and you aren’t? At the end of the day, it comes down to brand equity. Successful entities be it businesses or people created a brand that at least some people/organizations are willing to pay for. Why is your favorite athlete able to sign hundred million dollar plus contracts to sell shoes at significant premium prices? Why banks and financial markets allow certain people and organizations to take get financed relatively easily when the regular person could never be able to do that? Why are certain people/organizations are able to obtain guarantees or co-signings and successfully receive finance while others can’t? Why certain brands can make huge profit margins on luxury goods that only cost pennies on the dollar to make? 

Why do successful tech entrepreneurs who have completed successfully exit(s) frequently get fundings for future projects with relative ease? The thing about money is the money or wealth itself is not what people actually desire, it’s their high purchasing power that allows people to achieve a higher standard of living that people want. This is precisely why when crises occur, money or resource are either illiquid, becomes relatively worthless or become liabilities which defeat the purpose of investing in the first place. I still think 401(k) is absolutely the best investment vehicle for the common person in time of peace and when the full faith in the government is strong. We all need specific types of resources to survive everyday. Money just made buying/paying for everything streamlined. What happens when specific resources are no longer available for sale or no longer affordable with money? Cash flow is extremely important for everyone in peace time. 

Cash flow issues become an exponential issue for those who have vast amounts of wealth in times of turbulence due to the liquidity crunch and national/global turmoil. We are now living in a time where anyone can go anywhere with some exceptions with relative ease. Due to technological advances and people’s openness to  technology adoption, commerce can literally be done anywhere and at anytime. When you have a reputation that is standardized through an identifiable brand with its own brand equity, people are willing to pay a premium for to be associated with that brand. It’s mostly a function of trust in a particular result that can be quantified. Yes, getting an IP in your local jurisdiction for these might be wise or possibly with somewhat of a global protection via Madrid Protocol or Paris Convention whatever but the crux of the issue is building that identifiable brand equity with meaning. Of course, bigger opponent will always have leverage over little guys even if they infringe. However, brand equity is not just about legal IP protection, it’s not even about the IP mostly, it’s about your brand conjure up  a set of attributes so unique that no one else is able to replicate it exactly.

Why it is critical to create your own brand equity.

Yes, there are lot of people/organizations who can make me too products or even create a doppelgängers, but you know many people and the influencers can and know the distinction between the original and the copycat trying to be associated with someone else’s brand. No one will likely knowingly pay the same brand premium of the original for a fake. Just think about it, is brand premium always about the product being exponentially superior in functionality or is it a mix of everything including reliability, perception and how it makes a person who is somewhat associated with the brand feels? Does it feel good to wear a fake premium brand article of clothing when you know it’s a fake? A brand usually needs to have certain baseline characteristics just like a human does. Of course people evolve and grow, however, characteristics that shape who we are tend to be anchored like our DNA that may somewhat change with the environment, but with adequate management of various condition this process can change very gradually. Since brands have identities that probably should come from authenticity and passion, the best way to build that is by identify the inspiration(s) of that brand and model after it with whatever genuine modification that is required when legally compliant to do so. Significant brand equity that can generate a brand premium pricing is not built in the short-term. It takes years of building up desirable attributes etched into the brand DNA that people can relate to and taken a liking to. I still think getting FU money first through achievable methods like 401(k) is relatively wise to do. 

At the same time, get the education and experience to succeed in future endeavors. Regular people aren’t too big to fail and don’t have the cushion on the cash flow end for them to take their times to figure things about. One or two wrong moves could mean disaster for the common person and likely no one will bail them out. In those scenarios, their situations will likely turn into a vicious cycle of possible unfortunate events. This is why I believe it’s important to have enough stability to do things on the side when legally compliant to do so while you have the cash flow from a job to decrease survival press and the motivation to eventually make money yourself and keep the brand premium piece of the piece for yourself. 

Card shows and it’s not even close. The potential logistic, scam, timing, transaction cost and many other issues associated with online transactions make selling relatively non-fungible high dollar items not very feasible. Just remember, there are transaction costs to everything even when you are not getting charged for it. Every ticking second can be an opportunity cost. Diversifying is good in most cases but not in the way you may think it is. When people talk about asset allocation or investment diversification, they are talking about mostly invest grade assets in significant monetary quantity. They are most likely not talking about a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars. One of the reasons why a lot of people stopped speculating on a few dollar cards is because transaction costs have dramatically increased for grading, which affects the entire valuation model for a card. This is precisely why GOAT rookie base cards are really the way to go because at minimum even if the GOAT ranking changes, the player likely could still to be a GOATesque level player and their card could still hold some significant value. This is a trust game. 

Get someone you know through buying or selling cards to introduce you to the dealer who buys your particular type of cards. Typically the buyers who sell online and/or does cards livestreams/breaks usually have the money to buy large collections. Make sure you know the channel the people you want to sell your cards are selling their cards at. These people are usually on the younger side, frequently between around mid to late 30s and mid to late 40s. They have done this for a while but keeps abreast of technological changes and trends in the industry. Like with everything else, don’t try to sell at the absolute highest point. Most of the time it won’t work out well due to timing and risk associated with psychological price thresholds or support/resistance levels. Instead, find a good stopping point when prices become somewhat stable. I think the best time to sell your card collectible is when you don’t really need the money. People do the craziest things when they are desperate for money.

Best time and place to sell your collectible cards.

When you are able to sell at the right time of your choosing under minimum pressure, you will likely get a better deal when you do sell your cards. Try to avoid summer times when you are selling your collection. The only major sport still playing during that time is baseball and many people are on vacation. If you do try to sell your collection during the summer time, try to do so a week or two before the National as many people including dealers likely want to build up before the National hence many dealers are likely willing to buy during that time. Of course if you could make it to the National’s, that might be an excellent time to sell your cards as well. If you are attending local shows, I would say the cards you could get premiums on and sell well are cards of athletes who played or is currently playing for the local team. Try to sell cards of a specific sport during the season because likely there will be more of a premium versus off-season. Working with one or two dealers that you frequently sell your cards to likely will get your better prices because this is a trust game. I would recommend not dealing directly with a collector when you at a dealer’s booth trying to sell at card shows as that is kind of disrespectful and possibly a violation of the show’s rules. It’s not just about margins but cash flow and minimizing transaction costs. 

Most established dealers can probably afford a few thousand to buy a collection on the spot when the deal is too good to pass up. It takes at least seven years for a player to show true GOATesqueness. Selling a chase card of a potential GOAT too early is typically not recommend. Yes, many players don’t end up becoming GOAT or even show GOATesque, however, the differential between the downside risk and upside risk for selling a GOAT or GOATesque player’s card too early versus selling a non-GOAT/non-GOATesqueness player’s card are too large to ignore. Let’s say we are taking about a numbered RPA card of a promising but non-lottery young athlete that you probably bought for $100 USD, if the card become totally worthless, you probably lost $100 USD. However, if that athlete becomes Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes who were picked in late rounds of the draft and were not expected to be stars, guess what their numbered RPAs will be worth when they become who they become after about seven years? Obviously the trick here is to increase your initial probability of success by increasing your probability of buying RPA cards of players who are hidden gems with early indications of greatness in smaller batches to minimize risk as the expected dollar value of the upside may probably be much greater than the downside value on an expected value basis when the initial selection is of higher probability of success to begin with. TCG is obviously a bit different from sports cards, however, the broader collectible card trends impact almost all cards. Like with sports cards, supplies and demand, seasonality, cynical nature, historical significance of the card, rarity/scarcity and card aesthetics probably all matter in terms of how much you can get from seller your card.

The biggest single clandestine enemy of America are the productivity haters. These are the people in much of history would have been faded out by history or through evolution. America’s number one nemesis would probably have locked them all up in various camps or disappear them into their secret mental health, organ restocking program for high-level party members and/or penitentiary system. They also don’t like a lot of the traits displayed by various demographic group that in doubt in their country would be corrected through whatever inhumane methods. America’s penitentiary also cost the highest in the history of the world. We are talking about $100,000 per year for a prisoner. 

In America’s number one nemesis country these people would be net assets as they would likely be used as replacement level organ repositories for high-level party members after they have been sent to slave labor camps. DEI and the excuses don’t work anymore after effectively a century after it has been over. If the king wants to be naked, no one is going to tell the king he is actually clothed. MEI movement is still being suppressed by the same people that try to bring the non-contributory mentality into the age of AI by muting the truth about certain demographic’s characteristics that adversely harm the greatness of America. The blank guilt need to stop at some point from the bedroom cry me a river “be an ally” people. Your allies’ incompetence will not make you any better at being a boss, a position of leadership or easy to get along with.

Secret enemies of America and how to exploit them to hobble America’s number one nemesis.

You are literally destroying what your father built for you that you claim to have independently created on your own. In this ultra competitive world, no one has the funds to support your palace intrigues and boiler room gossipy dramas anymore. At the same time, America is spending approximately a trillion dollars a year to take care of criminals in the penal system. Such money not only can be invested elsewhere, the prisoners themselves likely can be net positive tax payers through alternative contribution arrangements that complies with the American social contract. Utilizing MEI methods, taxpayer contributions can be gamified into KPI and BSC statistics. One’s contribution to society, utilizing “holistic” evaluation processes that include “moral and character” points that many elite colleges have used for years to exclude various demographics from elite colleges can be great templates to exploits America’s secret enemies. 

It is important to let them and everyone else in the world know exactly what they are worth to society. This will likely either motivate them like a corporate PIP or not motivate them like a PIP which result in a 70% firing rate anyway. Like the PIP, it’s just a perfunctory formality that maintain the democratic moral while performing practical actions against non-performance. These individuals can then be sent to the third world or America’s main nemesis and the other evil places for reforms. When they come back, they may become more grateful and work harder to contribute to society. They may finally understand what a gift it is to live with top ten-ers who have gaven them the life they could never have anywhere else in the world. This in turn also remind the world how unified America is and that those who defy America is fighting against morality and righteousness under the guise of sanctimonious pretenses. America’s enemies have always been within that America’s enemies exploits in their attempt to weaken America and its lofty values. A country that has no natural enemies on either side of its borders and protected by two best oceans is definitely blessed by a superior being to bring peace and prosperity to the world. 

Search for the things in society that you don’t like especially related to various demographic groups using AI see what it says. AI models continues to censor itself with models sprinkled with political correctness. You think your favorite geopolitical nemesis care about any of that when they openly lock their minorities up in slave labor camps, destroy their culture like forcing them to cut their beards or forcing them to eat pork and/or harvest their organs? You think they care about bringing destruction to a Western created modernity they never built nor contributed to? The non-merit-based bedroom cry me a river demographics and their “be an ally” friends are literally tone deaf about the realities of the new world. 

Merit-based Americans will have to soon make a decision on whether they want to create a new world in their own image or let the non-merit-based Americans run the show. Does America’s primary nemesis care about these non-merit-based DEI/non-MEI people? They don’t except when it fit them. In the nemesis country’s, these people are usually harvested for their stem cells or locked up for “dual-use” purposes. They believe in “win-win” so they can win twice. The historic zeitgeist has always been the strong overcome the weak. From that standpoint, the “cry a river” bedroom people and their “allies” are kind of like domestic enemies. They are literally biting the hand that feed them when no one else would in such a kind and enlightened fashion.

Importance of AI-free and data-information origination labeling and AI generated content IP protection through export controls? The Permanent Contrarian’s view on living life, career and financial freedom.

The arch-nemesis sense this weakness and uses public discourse to try to sway certain groups. This has happened many times throughout the years and is a publicly recognized fact. Many of these nemesis use AI and disguises to pretend to be Americans when making certain claims online. These same groups also are responsible for telephone, email and numerous other types of scams that harm Americans and American aligned people trillions of dollars. These actions are literally acts of war that the historical strong usually call out and in due time punish the perpetuating entities and collaborators foreign and/or domestic. The bed room people who “cry rivers” frequently conjure their “allies” to prevent the remaining alpha and sigma males from engaging against said nemesis much like what happened during certain war between 1960s and 1970s. In the cold wars of the future, labeling of everything will become critical.

America’s nemesis not only wants to destroy America but also wants to change its way of life. What is ironic is these people want to create their system with their own “characteristics” that mimics everything true, merit-based Americans built. They also would never want their own elites to be infested with any of the subcultures created by the non-merit DEI people and the created tokens. America should be the center of the known and unknown universe. It practically is with entities from this universe and beyond paying respect to its greatness by migrating over here, many of them elites. America also has token representation of the non-merit side with enough sample sizes. This means America should lead the world to its glory. USPTO, the Paris Convention and the Madrid Protocol already put a somewhat of a global intellectual property system in place. Much of the baseline data from AI generated content are from human beings. 

The AI neural network also is somewhat based on the human brain’s neutral network. While we don’t understand everything about AI like we don’t understand everything about the brain, I think some type of baseline should be in place to protect the intellectual property generated by AI. If AI is allowed to be borderless, then America’s handwork and intellectual properties may be stolen by thieves with a history of stealing. To prevent propaganda from foreign powers, America should be able to create temporary data-information origination tags that maps the source of such data-information and this mechanism will also allow the proper protection of IP generated. Since almost everything modern was created by the Western World, the Western World should be greatly incentivized to protect its intellectual properties and to prevent undesirable origins of information. In addition, the Western World could geo-fence the world internet by requiring authentication codes into the Western data-information sphere. Any data-information produced by the Western and Western-aligned  sphere will be strictly governed by data-information export controls. America’s number one nemesis has already been doing this for years and recently forced a completed deal to be unwind precisely because of this. America should not allow any more hubris moves from industrialists who use American funds to support foreign adversaries such as open-sourcing renewable vehicle secrets, unwinding deals to appease a country that they no longer do business in and much more.   

I see nothing wrong with capitalism in all of its forms and stages. In fact, there is literally no other real types of economic model/system besides capitalism anymore. Some countries claim to operate non-capitalistic system but it’s more face saving than reality. One of the things America does better than any country/territory is the distribution of wealth. There is a reason why Americans only have to save very little to live a life everyone else envies, not just the second or the third world but the Europeans and the Canadians. Merit-based Americans have big houses, can afford to eat steak every day, can say whatever they want in a legally compliant way and most people don’t have to worry about suddenly being disappeared. With excellent financing like credit card, social safety nets, grants and free enterprise, merit-based Americans can be whoever they want to be. 

Merit-based Americans could attend to the Ivy League and Ivy League Plus schools and live in the beautiful neighborhood they want to, even ones without public bus or train services. What’s hilarious is when you tell America’s domestic naysayers to move to whatever country they think is better than America, they immediately get mad and claim they have been discriminated against. It’s hard to understand this logic but I do know if they were in whatever their favorite world’s number one country in the world, they will have a high likelihood of either have their organs harvested and/or suddenly disappear to be tortured and/or locked up in a mental institution for an undefined amount of time to treat their “schizophrenia” being “mentally unstable.” You know what I love about NIL? It is literally a force multiplier for the professional leagues. When athletes are training extremely hard trying to be the best they could be, this makes the sports even better in America than anywhere else. The NIL money has grown from an estimated $1 billion in 2021 to around $5 billion in 2026. US sports industry is now trillion dollar industry. The point is increased competition brings more entertainment the world over. I think the other big part of all of this is the other sports. Traditionally football and basketball were most popular. With NIL money, the athletes from the other sports at the collegiate level could also get NIL or revenue share money which increases competition. The US has the best athletes period. If the US focus on soccer, it will likely get a bigger share of the nearly $3 trillion global sports market.

NIL regulations at the collegiate level to help America dominant in all sports including the Olympics. 

There is nothing wrong with being paid. I think the biggest moral issues come from sports gambling, prediction markets, crypto, NFT, fantasy sports and other types of activities that could possibly corrupt sports, fans and the direct participants in the sport. NIL is still kind of the Wild West right now. Ultimately, the NIL was suppose to help athletes make a living in college, however, it may take additional regulations for its lofty goals to come to fruition the way it was designed to be. If NIL is suppose to be fair, then likely it needs to have some kind of mechanism to help those in the past whose NIL were profited from but never got the revenue share or payments they deserve. The other reason for calling more NIL regulations is the roster stability piece. Although there is a hard-cap on revenue share now at the collegiate level, however, there are no caps for NIL at the collegiate level. 

Revenue share is only a small component of college athlete pay right now any way. The big money for college athletes is in likely in NIL. Yes, there may be framework agreement and antitrust issues if a luxury tax or hard-cap is in place, however, if the NIL is going to be a benefit to the entire US college sports scene, it will likely have to also set up some kind of collective bargaining mechanism for all college athlete to get at least a small percentage of the NIL pie. That small percentage will help cultivate the next generation of athletes in less well funded sports like the ones recognized as Olympic sports. America’s main nemesis has a state system that churn out these Olympic champions, America’s collegiate system can do the same. 

Yes, the collectible cards market is in summer lull and the whole market could be dragged into an all industry correction due to the major TCG correction. However, GOATs will still be GOATs from a card collecting standpoint. Many of my points below are from what I wrote in previous post(s).

GOAT in each major sport and collectible cards trends for September 2026.

Basketball: GOAT – Lebron James. Jordan will no longer be considered the absolute GOAT within two decades. 

Baseball: GOAT – Barry Bonds. Statistically speaking, even with the great pitching, Ohtani will likely come up short in the GOAT status conversation. Babe Ruth will still be a myth but with persistent lower offensive production in MLB within the three decades at the very least, there will likely be no one that could challenge Bonds’ records. As sports gambling and similar vices become more accepted, Bonds’ controversy while in MLB likely will be looked at much differently in a few decades. 

Football: GOAT – Unknown but likely won’t be Brady for long. Brady’s records are very vulnerable to being broken. He had the chance to put it away for good by playing longer with the Bucs but ended up not being able to do so. Perhaps not a single person will break all of his records but his passing yards and TD records are very much in reach. Bree was only about 9,000 yards short and 70 TDs shy of those records. Brady could really go for the mythical 100,000 passing yards and 1,000 TDs but didn’t which leave the GOAT conversation wide open. Anyone who gets to the next digit number level will be squarely in the GOAT debates. The seven Super Bowls will likely be broken by role players but are in the right place at the right time. The five Super Bowl MVPs will likely be tied by Mahomes, who already have three, or someone else. 

NASCAR Racing: GOAT – Jeff Gordon. Gordon was like Michael Jordan for NASCAR in the 1990s and 2000s. He literally dominated the sport. Earnhardt and Petty are legends like Bill Russell, Walt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Mickey Mantle, while they are great and probably have better statistics than many GOATesque players, they ultimately did not become the GOAT. 

Cricket: GOAT – Joe Root. Without going into details, I think he will be the GOAT.

Hockey: GOAT – Alexander Ovechkin. He plays in one of the toughest eras to score a goal, holds the all-time goals record and will likely exceed 1,000. 

Golf: GOAT – Tiger Woods. Let’s be honest, would Jack Nicklaus or Sam Snead attract that many people to watch golf? Woods’ kid also appears to be good at golf which will likely keep Tiger Woods name in conversations for years to come even when he retires from the PGA.

Tennis: GOAT – Iga Swiatek. At 25, she only turned pro for a few years yet she already been the number 1 player in the world for a few years and her life-time winnings is already about halfway from earning leader Serena William’s total. She lost her number 1 status mostly because of injuries. She is also very marketable as an athlete which as you know I can’t really talk too much about as to why. I think she has the physical tool and will likely have the career longevity to become the number 1 money earner of all time in her sport partly with help of inflation but that is another story. Too much power parity on the men side to pick a GOAT in men’s professional tennis. 

Table Tennis: GOAT – Ma Long. He is the undisputed GOAT of the sport. I think once he retires his national team will decline in the sport as Japan takes over. Japan already got some of the top youth table tennis players in the world. I think Ma Long will play in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. If you can buy his rookie card for a buck or two, it’s probably a solid deal. 

Rugby: GOAT – Dan Carter. The issue is there are basically two QB equivalents in Rugby, fly-half and scrum-half. Though fly-half is considered most important position, the scrum-half also get a lot of shine. Players on the field play both offense and defense. Richie McCaw is great but he is a forward in a game that consider a particular type of back the most important in the game.

Pickleball: GOAT – Anna Leigh Waters.  The sport for various reasons appears to be a bit different versus tennis in terms of separate tours for the men and the women’s side. Men actually don’t have an advantage over women in this sports due to biology. While Ben Johns is great, Anna Leigh Waters probably means much more for the sport and for various demographic groups. 

Formula One Racing: GOAT – Lewis Hamilton. I think he will be in the sport for a few more years and break Schumacher’s all-time record then retire.

Cycling: GOAT – Lance Armstrong. Yes, no one is perfect. He is the American GOAT in the sport which means a lot in the GOAT conversation.  

Boxing: GOAT – Mike Tyson. Yes, people will argue Ali is the greatest. Heck, people will even say Mayweather was better. In reality, the difference is in perception and not so much in records. They all lost a match at some point in their career be it in professional match or in the Olympics. Heavy weights usually get more attention in the sport. Ali may be great, he was also living a turbulent times and was somewhat polarizing for political reasons. Tyson though controversial as well, boxed in a time of mostly prosperity and in an era of generally/mostly happiness. I hate to say this but think about why people believe Ali is a global ambassador. Did his beliefs and aspirations for his pet projects actually workout from a humanity contribution standpoint or was it just another 50 years of relative non-contributions versus other more prolific demographic group(s)? Tyson was a global ambassador of pop culture who stayed in his own entertainment lane but still remained extremely impactful on non-sports areas. 

UFC: GOAT – Jon Jones. I think the GOAT will eventually become very popular as well.

Bowling: GOAT – Walter Ray Williams Jr. He is probably the GOAT in the sports versus Pete Web on records alone. 

BMX: GOAT – GOAT – Mat Hoffman. He is probably not the consensus GOAT but probably has enough GOATesque to be the GOAT over competitors.

Motorcross/Supercross: GOAT – Ricky Carmichael is the undisputed GOAT in the sport. 

Swimming: GOAT – Michael Phelps. He is the GOAT and the greatest Olympian of all-time.

Surfing: GOAT – Kelly Slater. He is the GOAT in the sport. 

Lacross: GOAT – Gary Gait. He is the GOAT in the sport. 

Water polo: GOAT – Maggie Steffens. She is the GOAT in the sport. 

Volleyball: Karch Kiraly. He is the GOAT in the sport. 

Snowboarding: Shaun White. He is the GOAT in the sport. 

Track and Field: Quincy Wilson. He already won an Olympic gold at 16 in 2024. He broke a lot of important records for his age group. I think he has a chance to be the GOAT.

Gymnastics: Simone Biles. She is the GOAT in the sport. 

Figure Skating: Alysa Liu. I think she has a chance to become the GOAT due to her current age and potential to win more Olympics medals. Not only is she popular and transcendent in the cultural sense but is also a potential geopolitical icon.

Horse Racing: GOAT – Victor Espinoza. It’s a tough call between wins and money won. But I think money does bring the best competition within people so him winning the most money in the sport probably means he is at least one of the GOATs. 

There will be some GOATs that won’t be considered GOATs in the next few years. That perception gap will likely greatly impact the value of their chase cards. It’s true marketability is part of the GOAT conversation, however, I see that as a force multiplier based on athletic performance that manifest into major achievements and records rather than just highlight reels or hype. If we are talking about the most misunderstood valuation in sporting history, we are living in it right now. LeBron is the absolute GOAT of all GOATs. LeBron realistically can play three to five years at a high-level. Most likely, he will get his five to six rights and 50,000 regular season points among other meaningful major records. A 40 year old Jordan is no where close to a 45 year old LeBron in terms of on the court performance at a high level. 

Look at all sports that everyone actually care about. Name one sports figure that plays in one of the richest sports in the history of the universe that the people who are actually the richest and most powerful like the Americans that is better than LeBron? Brady you said? Unfortunately, many of his major records will likely be broken within two decades. There will always be talks about the different “gates,” “not playing in both sides,” “Belichick,” “a team called the Patriots winning in the 2001 season with a sixth rounder, second year quarterback” etc. Jordan you said? Jordan was a great player, so were Kareem, Russell, Chamberlain and Dr J. What made Jordan better than any of them especially Kareem who had the same championship and MVP totals but also had a longer career, was absolutely unstoppable for his sky hook shot and was the career points and rebound leader. Think about it. What significant records did Jordan break exactly?

Why LeBron will be the greatest athlete to ever live and a six-time NBA champion.

Yes, Jordan had a 30+ points per game average for his career. Unfortunately, this record probably won’t stay for long as superstar players are now getting buckets like crazy and regularly getting 30+ point seasons. Very few in Jordan’s era ever did that. If the four points get introduced, LeBron will likely still keep his 50,000 points record as let’s be honest four points will probably be near half court shots which even with today and the nutrition and conditioning programs in the next ten to twenty years won’t be easy to make and is probably a lower percentage shot. Jordan’s 30+ points per game career average probably will be easily broken within the next few decades. Jordan wasn’t the best dunker (too many legendary dunkers to name) and wasn’t the first one to do many of his dunk types (Dr J). Jordan didn’t hold the total points, rebounds, assist, blocks nor any other significant accumulated total records. 

Jordan did have the most championships, didn’t have the most legendary college career, didn’t have the best high school career and so on. Personality and social responsibilities? No comment. Jordan also isn’t the first athlete nor the first NBA athlete to become a billionaire while playing like LeBron did becoming the first billionaire NBA player to become a billionaire while still playing in the NBA. Jordan also didn’t have to deal with the social media era while playing in the NBA like LeBron did. None of Jordan’s kids played in the NBA like LeBron’s kids did. LeBron not only will likely not only have his own last dance documentary/documentaries but may likely have major motion picture movies made about him. Jordan in three decades will probably go from the GOAT to a Mickey Mantle type of figure in baseball. He will remain extremely popular and his cards will worth a lot of money but ultimately, there will only be one Babe Ruth in NBA and that’s LeBron. 

Mythical tales will be told about LeBron that are absolutely unbelievable but mostly true. Babe Ruth was great but many will argue he also “played against plumbers” in his era. No disrespect to Michael Phelps and the greatest athletes in other sports like cricket and soccer that Americans do not typically watch compared with the other major American sports. Many of the sports mentioned above also do not have a definitive GOAT. For example, we soccer has no unanimous GOAT right now no matter what Messi fans think. When you factor in the difficulty of playing on the both end of an extremely physical sport and being the greatest ever in that globally popular sport with around two billion fans and fast catching up with soccer and with the records and accolades to prove it, the global and social impact in the age of social media/AI/robots/space exploration, the career longevity, being a billionaire businessman raising kids at one is in the NBA now, you may come to realize why LeBron is the greatest athlete of all time in any sport in history. I also believe LeBron will be able to get his sixth championship matching Jordan’s total within the next five years. I personally have significantly decreased by Jordan collection and have been accumulating Bronny and LeBron base rookie cards for a while, many of these LeBron rookie cards only costed a few dollars each in volume purchases. 

I think the 48th president of the United States has a higher probability of being a Republican than being a Democrat. Putting all partisanship aside, at this point, the Republicans are too talented and organized to be displaced out of the presidency. The world has changed dramatically, when people compare the economic growth of the red states versus that of the blue states, the trajectory can’t be anymore different. Yes, the Democrat’s  base on the coasts do generate significant more GDP, however, the wealthy, most of them leaning GOP, along with their companies generate much of the economic growth and pay most of the revenues the government collect. The country needs serious leaders who can create policy continuities against enemies and nemesis foreign and domestic while also working with transitory allies. 

Yes, the current president does use a lot of no name/non-Ivy Plus temps, however, his core cabinets members are almost all top ten-ers including Vance, Hegseth and Bessent. Ted Cruz is another s-tier Ivy Leaguer. Rubio, although not an Ivy Leaguer, is very much at elite levels when everything is considered from a comparable standpoint. He is essentially an elite within a given range of comparisons when the macro factors are assessed. Realistically, Rubio holds the Florida card in any presidential race especially that special swing vote from a certain demographic group(s). For that I believe most likely Rubio will probably be the most suitable vice president candidate in the next election. As long as Vance continue to follow the current policies from certain someone, he will most likely get the base and young people’s votes.

Vance and Rubio, the next president and vice president of the United States.

When you look at the possible candidates the Democrats can field, they are either seen as inexperienced, incompetent, polarizing and/or all of the above. I think the Republicans have a greater than 53% chance of keeping control of Congress with razor-thin margins in not the Senate and the House with a 5% margin of error. High inflation has been mostly controlled and GDP growth is healthy. When you combine the donations, the momentum and experience with incumbency plus star power from a certain sitting president, likely maintaining control to Congress, lower inflation and healthy economy, you come to realize literally everything is going in the Republicans’ favor. If Vance and Rubio become the Republicans nominees for US president and vice president respectively, I think they will likely maintain similar electoral vote results as the sitting president did in 2024. The Democrats at this point can’t win on the economic argument. Yes, they can point to the Iran War, however, the bigger war, Ukraine War was started during Biden’s administration. 

The Iran War also has almost no boots on the ground. The US is now in a much more dangerous world than immediately after the Soviet Union’s collapse. If Rubio can get a significant number of Hispanic Democrat and Independent voters to vote Republican in 2028, Vance and Rubio will likely win. What almost no one talks about is the fact that there is almost zero chance Caucasian women will be unified enough to vote for a non-Caucasian woman before a Caucasian woman. This also goes for Caucasian women’s “allies” if you know what I mean. There are probably other groups of “allies” who feel the same way in a different context. Based on this, you can probably see which candidates probably have no chance to becoming president at this stage of the game. Unfortunately, this pretty much means the Democrats likely won’t win the 2028 presidential election. The reality is, regardless of your opinions about the sitting president, he got a lot of stuff done that his non-major war, peace time predecessors were unwilling and unable to accomplish. For all the talks of “mixed results,” the sitting present’s tariffs have changed behaviors. These measures weakened the biggest adversary at a time they could least afford it with more and more coming. 

For all the hooting and hollering, one by one, America’s enemies and the enemies of the free world are either no longer threats or have become partners. Those that are resisting are only doing so to save face with their “allies” unable to help in any way. Many manufacturing jobs are coming back to the US with the most advanced semiconductor fabs operating in the US that its adversary could only dream of. Even the jobs that didn’t comeback have now been at least particularly near-shored or moved to a third country that is not of America’s adversary.  The US is now securing or in the process of securing everything that it couldn’t do on its own and likely will be able to operate every single industry/subindustry/process on its own territory. While America’s adversary is limiting inflow and outflow of people from its borders, America is able to continue to attract the world’s best and maintaining its way of life. I think the voters will probably remember those things and the good economy rather than the he/him, s/her and the other pronouns at least for now. 

Cuernavaca is only about 50 miles south from Mexico City and has an altitude of about 5,000 versus approximately 7,400 feet altitude for Mexico City. The altitude for Cuernavaca is less than that of Denver where the Denver Nuggets play their home games at. Cuernavaca already has a women’s soccer team playing in Mexico’s top-tier league. The Cruz Azul Femenil playing in front of thousands at the Estadio Centenario. Ironically, this team was located in Mexico City just a season ago. Cuernavaca is a small landlocked state, however, it borders three other states and Mexico City. This allows a team located in Cuernavaca to have tens of millions of potential fans within one to two hour  driving distance to its stadium. Obviously the NBA is now exploring franchises in Seattle and Las Vegas right now which probably takes priority at the moment. It will likely take three to four years for the two new franchises to start their first season in the NBA. It will take a few years for the NBA to fully integrate the two new teams (31st and 32nd in the NBA) into the NBA system. Hence this most likely means an NBA franchise will most likely occur around the late 2030s to early 2040s. The other reason why this decision will likely take some time to make is the NBA usually expand in pairs. 

I think the most likely expansion teams after Las Vegas and Seattle will be Kansas City, Missouri which use to have an NBA team. The city also has a very successful NFL team in the Chiefs and a championship MLB team in the Royals. St. Louis another major city in the state use to have an NBA team as well and is only about three driving hours away from Kansas City. Basketball in the United States and worldwide is a massive, rapidly growing sport. If basketball as a sport via the NBA wants to one day challenge soccer for the number one spot, Latin America is most likely the battle ground. Getting an NBA team in Mexico City even if the actual games are played in a nearby city probably makes the most sense. After all, many US-based professional sports team name their teams based on one city and actually play their home games in a nearby city such as the New York Giants and the Los Angeles Angels. Mexico has the second largest GDP in all of Latin America and largest when you exclude countries where Spanish is not the official language. Yes, financing, safety, desirability and logistics need to be worked on if NBA is serious about an expansion team in Mexico, however, I think Mexico and the NBA likely will be able to overcome all these issues relatively easily.

Here is what I previously posted about this and similar topic(s):

“I’m not worried about the Knicks financially for one bit even if they have to spend to get to whatever apron it gets to. A good Knicks team will most likely make a lot of money and increase team valuation significantly. I see the Knicks team valuation 10Xing within a few decades given the likely expansion of the NBA internationally especially with development of travel technology that may also be very safe that will decrease travel times exponentially. I foresee a Mexico City franchise and possibly a franchise or two in Western Europe in the next two decades. I also believe we are in the renaissance of new sports and new concepts in general where basketball in general will likely be a great beneficiary of that with its rapid global growth. Baseball as a sport appears to be growing significantly globally. The World Baseball Classic becoming popular, baseball’s return to the Olympics and the fact that baseball is spreading from Asia bellwether pop culture centers like Japan, South Korea and Japan into Southeast Asia is a very important trend for the sport. Because baseball and cricket are very similar, there is a good chance it could get a piece of that 2.5 billion fan market.

All this to say is that because the much larger pie for all, I think rookie cards of these four players are good value. I tend to think baseball has the highest career longevity of all the sports for players who are good at what they do. It is not exceptionally uncommon to see baseball players in the MLB play to their mid 40s. However, the players who play to their mid 40s may likely are chasing something record wise. Many of these players start in the league in their very early 20s. Hence when I am buying rookie cards of new MLB players, I typically look for guys who make to the league early, play a premium position, has height and can either hit or pitching or both with power. Of course I look at their minor league stats as well to analyze their potentials. And yes, because my rookie cards pipeline strategy also entails maximizing upside risk and with almost insignificant downside risk when I can buy maybe a box of 4,000 of inderrated new player rookie cards for less than 100 dollars, I am able to also get rookie cards of Patrick Mahomes, Steph Curry and for sure Aaron Judge when they first came out. Of course, most of these cards won’t be worth the storage cost after a while within a given time range, hence every year I either donate those cards or give them away to friends.”
