When people ask “Where is Trump going to get all the money to deport millions of people?” The same place you motherf*ckers got it to bus ’em, and fly ’em, put ’em up in hotels, give them free healthcare and $3500 a month on a debit card. That’s where we are going to get it!

.Tommy Pigott: "Only 10% of [foreign aid] went to the issue. 90% was eaten up by bureaucracy and contractors and layer after layer of people making money on those efforts... It's not that we're pulling back on foreign aid -- It's actually getting it back to the point where we can make a difference; where the money that is spent actually goes to the issues that matter to the American people."

“You see pink ribbons everywhere... events designed to make large amounts of money” 🚨Before you donate to a cancer charity, hear this. World Renowned Cancer Biologist Professor Thomas Seyfried reveals how fundraising efforts prop up a failed system. Hard earned and well intentioned money goes into “debunked” areas of research.... unknowingly contributing to a system stuck on the old story of cancer. SEYFRIED - “The more money we raise for breast cancer, the more people dying from breast cancer we get.... the money is being misspent on a therapy, or a strategy that's already been debunked” “You have to ask the organizations that raise money... what do you do with the money? Are you investing it in the therapies based on the somatic mutation gene theory? Or are you investing it in programs that recognize cancer as a metabolic mitochondrial metabolic disease.... ” “When you find out that most of the money is going to cancer research involving gene mutations, now you can understand why we have no progress... and we get more and more de-d people year in and year out”.

You have my hard-earned cash, where is it? When the answer that you get is I just don't have it, it really does get you thinking about our whole banking system."

Mark Cuban: OpenAI is shitting away their money. They'll never get a return on that trillion dollar spend. "There's a lot of FUD being put out about the spending. We're going to spend a trillion dollars because we need all this data center capacity. Well, the data center, the ability to process is going to get faster, cheaper" "I think a lot of the numbers that they're throwing out there aren't going to come to fruition, which is why I say they're full of shit" "We don't know if the business of foundational models is going to be like the streaming industry where there's one leader and a bunch of players that make money, or some that make money at least, or search where there's effectively one company" "So they need to raise all the money, go all in and spend everything they can, kiss all the rings around the world in hopes of being the one" "It's going to be very difficult, but I don't think it's going to pay off the way they expect" "They're pissing away the money at scale. It's hard to do, right? But if you don't go all in like that, you can't keep on raising money."

"Is this [MOU] something you would've signed?" Former Deputy National Security Advisor KT McFarland: "Absolutely — because we have the ability to enforce it... the other thing is that the money that you mentioned; the investment funds and all of that—we can see where Iran is using this money now. We couldn't do that a year ago. The countries where it keeps a lot of its money—the Gulf Arab countries—they've opened their books to us... they usually sit out any conflict in the Middle East. This time, they're on OUR side!"

The best piece of advice Brian ever got was from Paul Graham (Paul Graham): "It's better to have a hundred people love you than a million people sort of like you." "That came from Paul Buchheit (Paul Buchheit). Paul was a partner at Y Combinator. He created Gmail. The famous story was he couldn't ship it until 100 people inside of Google love it. It actually took two years to get 100 people to actually like the product. But once a hundred people like something, a hundred million people like it. The problem is, if you try to make something a million people like, you can't talk to a million people. It's like you're trying to heat up an ocean and you can't tell. Instead of heating up an ocean, heat up a bathtub. Make the problem as small as possible. Do things that don't scale, then scale. Product market fit is a distinct problem from industrialization. Understand the user, put yourself in their shoes, blow their mind. Do things you've never thought before. Do them by hand. Make them unscalable. Don't worry how much it costs. Just prove the model."

Trader Mayne highlights how Crypto desensitises you to money “Normies spent $12,000 and travelled to 9 different countries in 130 days. Meanwhile Crypto you put $12,000 into a meme coin, a NFT, it goes to zero and you’re just like this is just a normal day” “The money doesn’t feel real in Crypto. I’m sure many of you have felt this when talking to your friends who aren’t Crypto native, you say you put $25,000 into a meme coin and it went to zero and they’re like what?!” “There’s this disconnect because it’s numbers on a screen, it doesn’t feel real. Do not fall into the psyop of Crypto twitter that $5,000,000 isn’t enough to retire or that $100,000 isn’t a lot of money” “$10,000 is a lot of money to the vast majority of people. We get completely desensitised and sometimes you have to get out of this delusion and realise with $10,000 you can do a lot of cool stuff”

JUST IN: VP Vance calls out fraudsters who are stealing money from innocent people relying on America's spirit of generosity: "I think it's a great thing about our country is that we have this generosity of spirit where we take care of one another, but fraud takes that away from us because it steals money from the taxpayer when they pay their taxes.” “And it also steals money from innocent people who are meant to benefit from these programs, but can't when the money runs dry."
