So everyday I get email news updates about retirement planning articles. Honestly, most are shit. (Ever see the Motley Fool?)
Today one caught my eye; it was a very brief synopsis of the book, "Die With Zero" on Business Insider.
Today's a quick rundown on that article with some commentary by your kickass host. Enjoy, and remember: Learn about Bitcoin.

Today we're gonna take a quick detour. Well, a not-so-quick detour, actually. If you haven't heard it, you need to hear the speech Bari Weiss gave at the Federalist Society recently.
If you don't wanna hear my semi-literate, stammering preamble, you can skip ahead to around 11:30.
Her speech, titled "You Are the Last Line of Defense" is the most important piece of content I've consumed in 2023. Please listen. Please, seriously, list...

Today on your favorite retirement podcast, I'm breaking down a really dumb episode of NPR's "Planet Money" podcast. Listening to them make light of the Argentinian inflation crisis made me wanna slap someone, but I thought YOU might find their treatment of the issue interesting.

**Disclosure: I have money invested in one of Whitney's syndications.
If you're interested in a passive way to get into real estate, you need to hear this episod...
