Free Money Making Idea

3/29/2021

 
During yesterday's extremely infrequent visit to the local Carvel, I noticed the server wearing a "Cape May" sweatshirt. 
I had the thought: I bet if you went to Cape May, the server at the ice cream store would be wearing a sweatshirt that said "Nantucket", or "Kona" or "Aspen", or "Cabo" or anywhere but Cape May.
I haven't been to Kathmandu, but I'll wager the kids there wear "Jackson Hole" sweatshirts more than they wear Kathmandu sweatshirts.
So here's an idea for Sweatshirt Makers:
print sweatshirts that say:
"Some Cool Place, other Than Here"
it could be a World Wide Bestseller

What is Money?

3/25/2021

 
I read a terrific book: Money: The True Story of a Made-Up Thing, by Jacob Goldstein last year. I spent 35 years in the investment business, and the thing people wanted to know about money in that realm was: How Big of a Pile of Money Can Be Accumulated?
But the concept of Money itself is very interesting. Why do people trust that money has value? The bills pictured below were once accepted as real money; you could buy dinner with them. How does that relate to Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin? I still carry around a real Zimbabwe 100 Trillion Dollar Bill. It's worth about $1 as a collectible, you can buy them on Ebay.
Going down that road led me to write: The Bitcoin Gambit.

Among the Top Ten things for which to be Grateful

3/24/2021

 
Be Grateful that you're not the Captain of the ship that ran aground in the Suez Canal.
Imagine the conversation:
First Mate: Captain, what is that sound? It sounds like scraping.
Captain: Don't worry. Full speed ahead!
Long Pause
Captain: (expletive deleted)

Tyops--er, Typos

3/21/2021

 
In my most recent newsletter I included an apology regarding typos in the first upload of my book The Bitcoin Gambit. My son Eric, who helps me with Internet things, noticed A TYPO IN THE SENTENCE IN WHICH I APOLOGIZED FOR THE TYPOS! It's always good to have at least one other person review your work.

Note from Narrator Gary

3/20/2021

 
Gary Williams, who is narrating his third book for me is in the midst recording of The Bitcoin Gambit. He wrote me the other day that he had a hard time getting through one passage about Barbara Jean without laughing, and had to do several takes. I hope you listen to the finished product, coming in a month or so, and have the same reaction.

Bitcoin Rescue Plan

3/15/2021

 
I saw a survey today that people getting the Cover Relief checks plan to spend 10-15% of the money buying Bitcoin! Sometimes the world seems a little upside down. Is that why we did this? If you want to know what I think about Bitcoin please see my newest book, The Bitcoin Gambit.

Ready for Aliens

3/14/2021

 
Did you ever notice on TV or the movies how ready we are for Aliens Invasion? Apparently we in the U.S., and on Earth in general are holding back a highly trained force of very good looking people who are equipped with specialized high tech stuff, particularly meters to measure things electronically. This force has access to lots of helicopters and more PPE than we used in the pandemic. You don't see these people around in everyday life.
