0:58 Where to Ask Questions
1:03 If the CIA is the creator of BTC (as has been suggested many times), then doesn’t that mean that the US Gov (ultimately) controls the Satoshi Wallet and the (reportedly 1m BTC that it holds). If this is correct, then the US Gov already...

4:30 Key Players Are Well Known
5:40 “Never put all your eggs in 1 basket” is a common teaching in the IA community. How do we know when we have achieved a reasonably diversified portfolio? Is there a minimum number of baskets (assets) needed? Could just 3 baskets, (e.g. BTC, TSLA, SOL) be diversified enough?

7:21 Diversification Step 2: Winners in Top Narratives
9:29 With your background in Forex, what opportunities do you see to trade between USD stables and Yen stables like GYEN and JPYC, especially after the BOJ rate hikes and impending Fed rate cuts?
9:53 My Journey
10:09 Trading Risk Complexity Continuum
12:35 James, could you discuss the recession and its timing? Do they always occur mid-bull run? Will you be exiting any of your positions (SOL alts perhaps) because of the recession or do you think the drawdown will be small due to the coming rate cuts?

18:35 Loving all that IA does to help people! Budding covered call addict here. For a stock you want to sell (eg. sell 20% of TSLA bag when it hits $2k/share) would it make sense to sell a covered call on that portion and select a strike price that would likely get hit? Seems you can goose returns this way. If so, what are you looking for in terms of strike and expiration?
19:27 Impossible To Tell for a Few Reasons
20:44 Two times now when markets were imploding centrallized exchanges like Schwab and now Fidelity have went under. Microsoft programs also had crippled the world a few fridays ago as well. I believe coinbase’s days are numbered...

29:55 Side Hustles vs. Investing
34:34 Hunting for ALPHA, Teladoc $TDOC , could it offer a good R:R, i dont see a major catalyst in the near term to assign Expected Value probabilites, BUT as you said, better to position when NO-ONE is looking at it! -
34:55 Per ATR: It is a Total Zombie down 97%
35:19 No Growth, Loses Money, High Debt
36:05 Hello I am 45 years old, a new dad two days ago (!) and I’ve never had much in the way of a retirement plan in my life. Today I completed a transfer of my small work pension into a self invested pension with Fidelity. Unfortunately it won’t let me invest directly in US stocks!!
37:29 Sounds Like a Sipp
40:25 Is there a reason to not sell and buy back a crypto asset immediately to harvest the loss, without changing your allocation or holdings (for more than a moment or so) given that there is no wash sale rule against it?

[rebeccacarpenter]

100% agree the exchange outages are intentional.

[steamisalwaysright]

It's bullshit, James. I have a friend who works in server maintenance for Computershare - there is multiple fail-safes, the servers that host the trades/data do NOT go down.

[adamcek]

Your video serves as a calming beacon, particularly when financial markets are in tumult. Your analysis offers a prudent course of action, fitting seamlessly with the current stage of the economic cycle. Nonetheless, one cannot overlook the expanding mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies since 2019, as well as the fervent discourse surrounding prospective Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Might these elements sustain the market in this particular cycle? Speculation abounds that we are on the verge of a significant market upswing, making this a moment of great import for any discerning investor. My own portfolio, enriched by 34 bitcoins in a mere seven-week interval, serves as a compelling testament to Aria Cookings financial wisdom.

James, you are the most rational and level headed YouTuber in crypto and finance. You should have at least a million subs already. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insights.

[theGabester]

[seandonnolley]

AWESOME SHOW AZ USUAL.. 🔥.AND OVER 10, 000 PEOPLE WATCHING THE BEST SHOW ON YOUTUBE 💯..THANK YOU AZ ALWAYS JAMES 👍

[Observational_D-Block]

lol when I heard James drop “the poop word” I had to rewind and rewatch it like 5 times 😂

[zLance]

I loved seeing the raw emotion that came out "the poop word". Shows how passionate you are about the cause

[MikeChester-lfrj]

Thanks so much for all you and your team do James!

[anarchistbuddhist]

James is very polite, so I'll say what he couldn't say about Schwab. It fucking sucks! I too had TD Ameritrade, my finance friend knows the guy that founded & built TD back in the day, it's a Phenomenal platform. Now that Schwab owns them they somehow turned gold back into shit!

[theprestonpoet]

On fire tonight, James. Thank you brother for your infinite wisdom! 🔥

[anarchistbuddhist]

People think Leonard Nemoys last words to captain Kirk were "peace and prosperity". He actually said "prosperity and winning". 😂

Great stuff here James.

[double-oseven]

About to see the best september in btc history!!

[ahavahtobah]

Your last question was about selling at a loss and buying right back in - a wash sale? Can you please explain more about this? Why would you do it and under what circumstances? Thank you

[CryptoMeme]

Me…mocked and ridiculed since 2016. Still I press on. I only buy btc, sol and tsla.

[andyabbott]

As mentioned the Hargreaves SIPP and the Interactive Investor SIPP (for example) are very flexible and can buy MSTR and TSLA for example. The minimum age for taking benefits is currently 55 in UK, rising to 58 in a few years.

[europana]

Weren’t we supposed to be over 100k BTC by now? Looking at diminishing returns from Cycle Low Multiple, seems BTC will peak btwn $75k to maybe $120k

[dubiousrationale]

this may be my favorite episode ever, "Diversification Step 2" is money in the 🤪, thank you for sharing your finance experience 🔥, speak truth to power ✊

[digswimmingdave]

[Aarrrrgg]

From the UK. I've got my pension in Hargreaves Lansdown SIPP. They do American stock. I've bought Tesla. Hope this helps.
