What you focus on is what you’re paying for. In this episode, David and Jalen dive deep into how your attention shapes your wealth, your habits, and your future. From recalibrating your social media algorithm to protecting your mental space, they break down the power of intentionality in a world that is increasingly distracted.
Then, the conversation expands globally, covering Bitcoin’s new all-time high, U.S. crypto legislation, the BRICS nations’ gold-backed moves to dethrone the U.S. dollar, and why the cannabis industry went from green rush to green bust. They close out with good news for creators as YouTube cracks down on AI-generated slop content.
This episode blends culture, finance, and real talk about how these shifts impact Black wealth today.
