A while back I saw this tweet from Codie Sanchez
“You know what keeps me up at night as a CEO? That some government or world leader will do something stupid enough to make all our work not matter. Then you remember you can’t change that, so you just go back to building.”
There’s a hair-raising amount of truth to that.
And it’s one reason why I have long suggested to those closest to me in both family & business to prepare for the bureaucrat-created apocalypse to help save their own, personaly society (family & business, loved ones…) by:
* Selling stuff online as well as stuff OFFLINE (not being 100% reliant on the internet)
* Selling stuff locally, regionally, and globally
* Stacking medias & subscription offers and not relying on one of anything
* Building & mailing your list every day
* Using profits to stuff some saving away in T-bills (to protect yourself from bank collapses), bitcoin, precious metals (not just silver, gold, etc, but also lead – i.e., ammo), at least a little spot of land to grow stuff on, & even livestock. Some of this I talked about in my After School Special Email Players annual recently which was a letter to my own son about this and many other things. That is how important I consider it.
Whatever the case:
Volatile times are only gonna ramp up harder.
And voting harder for your favorite foreign-controlled muppet ain’t gonna change a blessed thing.
