Great discussion! Keep it coming this is all the mentorship we need and some of us. A mentorship means nothing if that person is not executing and discipline enough to invest year around, in the right stock or ETF etc. I'm just grateful for this platform and learn day by day.

How yall know about investing and where to go to buy stocks but not know where to go and buy gold. Your local coin shop. They always have gold and silver. Most do not know you can buy it online. Even pawnshops have gold and silver. I knew where to go to buy gold at before I knew where I could go and buy stocks at.

As someone who runs multiple businesses, you guys can have more interactions and views if you focused more on small and medium businesses as real life case studies just as u are breaking down Amazon and Costco. 90% of us will never see the capital investment nor have the connections it takes to start and build something like that.

♨️I absolutely would safety trade Costco & McDonald's .
Amazon is a no brainer only because they have a choke hold on ppl psychologically.
