This is the one — and ONLY — rule of wealth generation

Rule #1: You must know the difference between an asset and a liability. 


Then buy or create assets. 

 

If you want to be rich, this is all you need to know.

 

This is rule #1, it is the only rule. 

 

This may sound absurdly simple, but most people have no idea how profound this rule is. 

 

Most people struggle financially because they do not know the difference between an asset and a liability.

 

An asset puts money IN your pocket. A liability takes money OUT of your pocket.


Here’s a question for you…

 

Is the home in which you live an asset or a liability?

 

In my view, your house is a liability. Even if you own the property with no mortgage, you still pay property taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance, etc. Therefore: money is being taken out of your pocket.


Once you understand this simple rule… all you have to do is follow it to gain wealth.

 


To your wealth building,

Albert X Ariho

First of all is the Fed.

 Every week we talk about inflation calming down. This week there is a hint that maybe December’s interest hike might only be a 50 basis point move as opposed to the expected 75 basis point move.  This is why you’ll hear markets “cheer, everything is still going up. They're seeing an end in sight to these interest hikes. This is important because if one can reasonably assume the interest rate peak is going to be in February, then they can start deploying their funds accordingly.

Fidelity

 Fidelity, this is actually huge news that nobody cares about right now because of all the FTX drama as well as all the attention Elon Musk is getting for Twitter and his war with Apple. But Fidelity, one of the biggest traditional finance organizations, is now open for crypto. I think now that FTX is out of the way, there is a gap for them to take the market share. Obviously, Coinbase is still a big player, but a lot of people have their retirement accounts on Fidelity and huge, huge, huge bank accounts on Fidelity as well, where they can diversify into crypto. The main problem is that sentiment has never been this bad for crypto. That's why I keep saying last week that we are probably at a bottom. We've not gone below $1100 for Ethereum strangely. And to be honest, I've been waiting for $800 or $900 to buy back in, but it just never hit it. It just keeps staying at $1100 or $1150 to $1200. I don't know who is buying it up right now but I'm trying to figure out who...

BlockFi

 BlockFi filed bankruptcy this week and had $355 million that is now frozen on FTX. We suspected this would happen. BlockFi was going to go bankrupt and FTX saved them. But now there's a battle going on. Basically, BlockFi is fighting for more assets. They're trying to get $620 million of HOOD (RobinHood).
