This study blew my mind. It found there’s ONE main key to earning a higher income. The study looked at kids from poorer families, and how they turned out as adults. Turns out, the number one indicator of their future income was not the socioeconomic status of their family.... It was the socioeconomic status of the other people they’re around. This is called Economic Connectedness. What does that mean? Put bluntly, EC measures how many rich people and poor people are friends. When an area has higher economic connectedness, poor kids are more likely to make more money as adults. For example: • Minneapolis has an EC of 0.98. • Indianapolis’s is lower at 0.65. But… • Kids from low income families in Minneapolis reach the 43rd percentile of household income as adults. • Kids from the same background in Indianapolis only reach the 34th percentile. WHO you surround yourself with and WHERE you are has a huge impact on your monetary success. So we asked the question... Is it possible to be in the top 1% of earners without ever changing your environment? What do you think?show more

This is why I think the smartest thing you can do is to realize you aren't that smart. The best operators know what they know, but more importantly what they don't know. Double down on what you know. Then surround yourself with people who know everything else.

I think it has a lot to do with employment referral. Almost all of the positions I've held were from referral. Who you hang around and who you know professionally grows over time, but that's where your referrals come from, and who you're referring as well.

There are outliers, I grew up in a well connected socioeconomic city, lots of wealth. But if you don’t fit in, those same kids make sure you know it. How would you advise those kids to overcome and make it in the “in group”?

This is an extension of the adage that you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. It's natural - you'll take on their beliefs, habits, actions and ultimately, outcomes.

People care deeply about social status—specifically, the esteem in which they’re held by those whose opinions they value. That’s often the real reason people pursue wealth. It’s not just about having money for its own sake, but about converting it into status. In fact, many people care more about how they’re perceived than about the actual number in their bank account. One study found that sociometric status—being respected and admired by your peers—is a stronger predictor of well-being than socioeconomic status. Put simply, people who are well-liked and valued by their social circle tend to be happier than people who merely earn a high income. People with higher sociometric status—being respected, liked, and influential in their immediate groups—tend to be happier on average than people whose advantage is mainly socioeconomic status (income, education, occupation). In multi-site studies, sociometric status more strongly predicts both life satisfaction and day-to-day positive emotion than does socioeconomic status, even when income and education are controlled.

As you become more successful, your appetite for status grows stronger. Two independent teams of researchers replicated a study using representative samples of Americans. They collected standard demographic measures—income, occupational prestige, and education—and asked people how well they felt they were doing in life. They then measured interest in status using statements such as: “It would please me to be in a position of power over others,” “I enjoy when people notice me when I enter a room,” and “It’s important for me to have influence over my peers.” The pattern was clear. Those at or near the top of the socioeconomic hierarchy—higher income, more education, greater occupational prestige—were the most likely to agree with these statements. At first glance, this seems counterintuitive. You might expect people with fewer resources to be the ones who most desire power, influence, and status. But the data suggest the opposite. Those who already have the most are often the ones who want more.

$NO INCOME TAXES: President Trump states that INCOME TAX will most likely be abolished for a great number of people due to the massive amount of money being brought in from TARIFFS. This is how the U.S. used to operate and why TARIFFS are a massive success to the country. Only a very small fraction of people used to pay income taxes. Specifically, around the years 1894 and the early 1900s to 1917, the federal income tax applied to less than 1% of the population. "I believe in the not-too-distant future you won't even have income tax to pay. Because the money [from tariffs] is so enormous." "Whether you get rid of it, or keep it around for fun, or have it really low, much lower than it is now. But you won't be paying income tax." – President Donald J. Trump$

This is a smoke and mirrors tactic to try to deceive the American people into thinking that the One Big Beautiful Bill will benefit the top 10 percent at the expense of the bottom 10 percent. Ironically, the only thing Democrats are proving is that our policies are a massive success. First, they’re not measuring economic benefits to low-income earners, they’re measuring federal resources distributed. For instance, there are fewer transfer payments to people on welfare if you prohibit illegal immigrants from accessing these programs and enact common sense work requirements to stop trapping people in dependence. Second, when you allow Americans from every walk of life to keep more of their income, you lift millions out of poverty, just as we witnessed in President Trump’s first term. Democrats measure success by how many people are stuck on the welfare rolls; Republicans measure success by how many Americans are lifted off of them.

The top 10% are now accounting for 49.7% of consumer spending. If ever you wanted evidence of the shift of wealth from the bottom and the middle to the top, here it is. The bottom 90% are now living in a different world, and buy now pay later operations are booming (owned by guess who?) the top exploiting the bottom again. Buy now pay later is now being used by low income families to buy groceries. It is inconceivable to me that the poor are now being exploited to just feed their kids, but ever was it so. WELCOME TO TRUMP’S AMERICA And this is before the tariffs really start to impact families fully. 🎥 TikTok -

In the 1960s, children across every income level were overwhelmingly raised by two married parents. Today, Rob Henderson says that has changed dramatically for working-class and poorer families. “In 1960… 95% of the kids were raised by two married parents.” “For upper and upper middle class kids, by 2005 It declined slightly from 95% to 85%.” “If you look at poor and working class kids, it dropped from 95% to 30%.” “Now if you visit a lot of working class, blue collar, impoverished areas.” “Seeing kids in what the idea of the family is… that’s an anomaly.” Rob Henderson

Less than half of Americans without a college degree want to legalize drugs, but more than sixty percent of those with a bachelor’s degree or higher are in favor. Drugs are often seen as a harmless pastime for the wealthy, but for the poor they’re more likely a path to deeper suffering. If you look at who’s most supportive of decriminalization or legalization, it’s clear—the higher up you go in income or education, the more support you see. And that makes sense. People who haven’t seen up close the squalor and destruction that come from hard drug use are more inclined to treat it as an abstract issue of personal choice. But the reality is that the damage falls hardest on poor and marginalized neighborhoods.

Caught a video of the final score at the Daçka vs Beşiktaş game in Istanbul yesterday. There was a large group of kids rooting for the winning team. Turns out the kids are from an underprivileged school, to enroll they had to lose a parent and be low income. My heart.

Rory Sutherland drops a sharp observation about the double-income trap that a lot of people quietly feel but rarely say out loud. It started as a nice option: two salaries, more money, better life. But over time it became something else. House prices rose to absorb the extra income. Governments collected more tax. Homeowners got richer. And the typical double-income household? They gained a bit more stuff… but lost around 35 hours of discretionary time every week. What began as freedom quietly turned into an obligation. Now even high-earning single professionals (like hospital consultants) often struggle to afford a decent place to live on one income. Raising kids on a single salary — something that was possible for working-class families a generation ago — has become much harder. Sutherland’s point lands hard: what looked like progress for families ended up benefiting governments and existing homeowners far more than the people actually living it. It makes you wonder how many “lifestyle upgrades” in modern life are actually traps in disguise. Have you seen this shift in your own life or circle — where two incomes went from advantage to necessity?

Fertility rates in Canada have dropped precipitously since 2015. There is a widening gap between the number of children families want and the number of children families feel they can afford. Policies that put jobs and homes out of reach are forcing delayed family formation and leading to fewer kids. We must rebuild an economy where it is easier for people to have kids.

People say “that’s not fair,” but often what they really mean is “my status feels diminished." People care deeply about fairness, especially when it comes to how material resources are distributed. But often the concern is not really about the resource itself. It is about something underneath it. People say they care about fairness, but what they are really asking is: do you respect me? Do you see me as equal? Are you granting me the status that matches how I see myself? Take a common example. You find out that others at your job, in the same role, are being paid more than you. You are still doing well. You are comfortable. By most objective standards, you are fine. But the moment you learn that your peers earn more, the reaction is immediate: something is wrong. This feels unfair. Now imagine your boss responds, “You’re already making good money. Relax.” That does not calm the situation. It makes it worse. Because the issue was never just the money. It was the signal the difference sends. The gap suggests that you are valued less, that you occupy a lower rung, even if your absolute income is high. The anger that follows is not about deprivation. It is about status. It is the feeling of being diminished, of being treated as less than others who are, in principle, your equals.

1% of the population is responsible for more than 60% of violent crime. And a disproportionate share of that 1% happens to come from marginalized or dispossessed groups. And because of this the logic some people seem to think well, we just shouldn’t enforce laws anymore. But the problem is, criminals usually victimize people around them. And the people they’re victimizing also tend to be disproportionately poor, disproportionately marginalized, disproportionately from deprived backgrounds too. Compared to Americans who earn more than $75,000 a year, the lowest-income Americans are 7 times more likely to be victims of aggravated assault, 7 times more likely to be victims of robbery, and 20 times more likely to be victims of sexual assault and homicide. Virtually every crime you can think of — the poor are the most likely to be victimized by it. And what gets lost is that poor people are much more likely to be victimized by crime than to be perpetrators of crime. But we focus so much of the attention on the perpetrators — and how they come from marginalized and deprived backgrounds — and we just don’t think nearly as much about the victims. What happens to them. What their lives look like afterward. And I think that’s a shame. I mean, if there’s a criminal who commits an act, we should spend more time thinking about how to help the victim than the perpetrator. From my conversation with Garry Tan

The Biggest Tax Reform in Living Memory! A trust is basically a structure where the income doesn’t sit in your personal name. It sits in the trust, and each year, that income can be distributed to different people in the family. So instead of one person earning everything and paying top tax, it gets spread out. This is how the wealthy pay less tax - legally. The advantage is simple. You can legally reduce the overall tax by allocating income to people on lower tax rates. That’s why people who’ve got good advice and set things up properly have been able to keep more of what they earn, while also adding a layer of asset protection at the same time. #australianeconomy #budget #trustfund

Young children show prestige bias; they are more likely to copy a model that adults regard as being higher social status- for example, their head-teacher rather than an equally familiar person of the same age and gender. Young children are “selective copiers.” They are more likely to imitate their head teacher rather than an equally familiar person of the same age and gender. They prefer to copy high-status people. Five-year-olds assume that an individual who imitates another person is relatively lower in status, suggesting they have an intuitive understanding that the person being copied has higher status. People in general—both children and adults—favor mimicking prestigious people compared to ordinary people. For most of human history, our ancestors looked around and copied whoever seemed to be doing something effectively. If a hunter or fisherman brought home huge catches, others took note. They imitated his methods. They imitated his tools. But just in case, they would also imitate his clothes. They imitated the little song he hummed while cleaning the spear he used. The logic was straightforward. If you can’t neatly separate what works from what doesn’t, you copy everything. As belief systems developed, people came to see skill and good fortune as signs of divine favor. If a fisherman was successful, maybe the gods had blessed him. So people treated anything connected to the successful person as a possible source of power. A tool, a piece of clothing, a personal habit. Any of it might hold some of the magic that led to his success.

I received this video where kids meet Queen and many of you asked me if she's really a reptilian I'm not saying that she's a reptilian, but the fact is that both kids and animals, can sense evil spirits as they are pure souls The thing with kids is they don t have the limitations of life and belief systems installed fully. Many kids sense spirits because they are still disconnected from the logical physical realm but entirely relying on their intuition/senses When most loving people look at babies, the babies look at you and smile, when an evil person looks at a baby tlhe baby looks scared or cries. In conclusion, I would say that the kids can feel the overwhelming evil presence, thus kid crawled out of the room to avoid the Queen. However this all ends when the adults in their lives start telling them how to think and what to believe

Larson: The plan is to enhance social security, not to cut it so that people who are currently struggling, people now, today, not waiting for a study but as we speak, are getting below poverty level checks. And you stand there and tell me we're throwing money at them? They didn't think it was throwing money when they were paying the money out of their paycheck and they put their trust and confidence in the United States of America to return to them a benefit that has been the number one anti-poverty program for the country.

Scenario : You live in a housing estate full of young families in County Tipperary where you know all your neighbours and enjoy a peaceful life. Your kids are friends with the neighbours kids and they all play together in the fields across the road. Then one day the government decides to build a migrant/refugee plantation in the very fields your kids play in. The entire community protests, Irish workers even quit their jobs on the site once they learn its purpose. But the plantation moves ahead regardless because the owners import foreign workers. Months later your life has been turned upside down and you're faced with the prospect of having a walled off, purpose built village full of foreigners directory across the road from your home. Your kids are confused but you don't know what to tell them because even to you, it doesn't make sense why any government would do this to their own people. This is reality for the people of Clonmel.

Instability appears to have a stronger effect on boys than girls. The psychologist Peter K. Jonason and his colleagues found that, among men but not women, childhood instability was associated with higher scores on the Dark Triad—a constellation of personality traits associated with aggression, short-term thinking, and disregard for others. By contrast, childhood socioeconomic status had no effect on these traits. The effects of instability are especially striking when it comes to gender. Harvard economist Raj Chetty—in a 2016 paper that focused on boys and girls born between 1980 and 1982 in the same, disadvantaged neighborhoods—discovered that, by the time they turned 30, the women had better economic and educational outcomes than the men. Moreover, while the gender gap in college attendance exists across the socioeconomic ladder, it is widest among the poor. In other words, among kids raised in rich families, girls are slightly more likely to attend college. But among children raised in poor families, girls are much more likely to attend college. The employment pattern is reversed for children raised in intact families. Among children raised by poor, married parents, boys are slightly less likely than girls to grow up to be unemployed. In other words: Single parenthood appears to be especially detrimental for boys, while having married parents is particularly advantageous. These findings are consistent with research led by University of Chicago economist Marianne Bertrand, who also found that, while all children suffer in broken families, boys really suffer. Bertrand’s study observed that boys raised by single parents are twice as likely to be suspended from school as a result of disruptive behavior than girls in the same circumstances—and that the gender gap narrowed considerably when kids grow up in intact families. “All other family structures appear detrimental to boys,” the study notes.

Warnock: We're taking away health care from kids and then burdening them with the debt. We are engaged in robinhood in reverse, this body of stealing from the poor in order to give to the rich. This massive transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top. This is socialism for the rich. And when the people hear about it, guess what, they don't like it. That's why they're trying to pass it and they haven't even finished writing it. And so if the people do not want this bill, but they are trying to pass it, here's the question you've got to ask yourselves at home. You have to ask yourselves, well, who are they working for? Who are they fighting for? Who do they think matters? Do you think they are working for you?
