I know there’s a few COVID-cautious people still out there. You pretty much never see them irl (because they’re hiding just like me). Every once in awhile I still need to venture out to buy groceries so there’s a chance you might see me wearing a mask. 1/

in one form or another that’s suited to our talents, interests, and abilities and then we’d all share in the abundance of all that there is because there’s plenty to go around. But we’re not there yet so I’ll just redistribute wealth in the manner that’s available to me. Hypothetically. 7/

If that describes you and stock trading appeals to you then maybe a better approach would be to work toward that goal a little at a time with the goal of success 5 years down the road. 5/

The job didn’t pay much. There wasn’t much money in the budget but it was for a good cause so sometimes I worked for free. I knew I had to seek a better long-term solution so I eventually settled on the idea of stock trading. I don’t recommend this. It’s a lot harder than it looks. 3/

I’ve wanted to have an off-grid power system much of my life. Today I decided to look into how much batteries cost since I know they’ve been coming down in price. $36/kWh….I remember when they used to be $1,000/kWh.

In 2026 let’s work to promote world peace by working toward making oil worthless. In many parts of America, oil is already so cheap it sells for less than the amount of money it took to produce it. Renewable energy is a big part of why that is happening. 1/

This is now the case. Renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuel. You are wasting money if you continue to choose fossil fuel. Many don’t know this and will continue to choose fossil fuel for awhile longer. Ultimately, the US will lose money over Venezuela. 14/

I think it will be decades more before we see the final demise of oil. It is cheaper to produce oil in some countries compared to others. As long as a country can still sell it’s oil for more than it costs to produce that oil, it will continue to do so. 12/

Those who are guided by these false beliefs might be inclined to believe oil is the path to prosperity. They might believe that taking another country’s oil will lead to prosperity. The situation is somewhat like taking over another country known for their fine horses… 10/

They say ”Drill, baby, drill” to keep gas prices low. But it doesn’t matter how much you drill, if you have to sell the oil for less money than what it cost you to drill, it’s simply not going to work. The real reason gas is cheap is because of wind and solar. 8/

Oil has been the king, the prime driver for powerful economies for so long that many do not recognize the world is moving on. Oil is still important but it’s importance has slipped and will eventually lose it’s relevance. 6/

That’s where we’re headed with renewable energy and fossil fuel. We’ve been on this road for years and it will be years more before the destination is reached. Oil fuels war because it can be loaded into a ship and sent to another country. You can’t do this with sun and wind. 4/

The fact is renewables cost less than fossil fuel. And every year the technology for renewables gets better, more efficient, and companies find ways to make more electricity with less money. 2/

The US has the goal of bringing manufacturing back to the US and ending reliance on other countries for goods. Let’s assume the US accomplishes this goal. Now let’s say the US wants to sell to other countries. To be competitive the US will need the US dollar to be much weaker than it currently is.
