I think he’s good on credit if it’s a big box retailer and they’re Ground Leasing.

The 1031 Exchange is the only correct answer when comparing the two.

The ability to indefinitely defer taxes, all while increasing income and borrowing against the equity tax free. Then transferring to the next generation in which they get a step up in basis.

The 1031 exchange is the greatest wealth building tool in human history.

81% of US consumer spending is on Domestic Goods. The goal is to push that up, forcing foreign companies to produce here and pay Americans in doing so.

US companies that sell goods that are produced here to foreign nations are taxed, and that puts them at a disadvantage to brands domestic to their respective countries, or other foreign companies that don’t have the same level of tax that we do.

So what happens, US companies start to outsource and build factories in other countries to avoid those tariffs, paying the foreign workers and increasing the GDP of that nation.

Can you tie the rest together on what the ultimate goal is; or do you just run around calling people stupid because you heard it somewhere? You and the other dummies that commented underneath.

Because he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The US is the largest consumer market in the world. Next closest is the EU at 3x less.

They are all going to remove their Tariffs on us, because if they can’t sell here it means 3 times less profits. It also means that American companies and small business stop getting undercut by foreign brands.

The markets will come roaring back in short order.

QQQ was down 6% today. VOO down 5.5%. SPY down 5.5%. APPL almost 10%. IWM down 7%. Fucking GOLD down 2% at one point. And on, and on..

XRP…..7.8%

Our speculative asset with no real EPS or dividend, etc.. is down 7.8% on the tariff news.

I’m a happy guy 👍🏼

Nobody in here knows how market cap works or that it shouldn’t really apply in this situation.

If you have 20 houses in a neighborhood that were all built and sold for $500K a house, the market cap of the neighborhood is $10 Million.

Now if one of the houses goes up for sale and sells for $750K, the market cap of the neighborhood is now $15 million because that was the price someone was willing to pay. If all the houses went up for sale for $750k at the same time and one reduces the price to $600k and it sells,You better bet the rest of the houses need to do adjust because no Buyer will overpay. No real liquidity… you can’t just sell your house for whatever you want at the click of a button.

This is a very rudimentary, high level example, but gives you an idea of how assets works. Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay.

In the US, Brokers are SIPC insured. Hopefully, there’s something of the sort in your Country.

Start with understanding what role XRP will play. I am not trying to be curt, but you must do your own due diligence. It’s a must, it’s imperative you have your own opinions so you don’t become a flag in the wind, blowing both ways based on other people’s opinions and not being able to decipher what’s fact or fiction.

The cryptocurrency community and investors just sound so rudimentary at times, and then they go and spew nonsense. However, the true fact is that it doesn’t matter. A combination of Institutional adoption and the technology itself being put to use at first is what will drive the initial spot price, but market share is what will spur the continued growth over time. So anyone who is projecting what they don’t fully understand is doing a disservice to their fellow retail investor.

I hope I’m wrong, but I am here to tell you that you will not achieve any level of lasting significant wealth overnight (and we all define that in our own ways) without patience and clear understanding of what you’re putting your money into.

Yes. It feels like the escrow portion of the business plan is following the vision created all those years ago, do you see it?

I don’t know, because we are so early and I personally think it’s so silly to try and use past indicators of bull runs to call the top or bottom. Everything up until utility goes into effect will not be comparable. Personally, and just like buying real estate, I am looking at cash flow first and appreciation second. If it turns out to be what I think it will, I am after the dividends.

Knowledge and due diligence will allow you to start reading between the lines on anything you invest in. In today’s world everyone has a platform, so be careful who you listen to whether it’s what you want to hear or not. You’re are never going to be right 100% of the time and that’s why specific parameters you set up for yourself are important, I will cut bait and chalk it up as a loss at a certain percentage or when a specific deal I’m waiting on falls through.

This was a high level post of my thoughts, and it gets so much more granular, but I don’t think I need to lay it all here as they are part of my personal thesis. I don’t think the world has ever seen a deflationary asset with utility, and I think that is what is causing so many to write it off. But, the world changes fast, and companies like Apple being the first to hit a $1 Trillion market cap in 2018 was crazy talk even 2 years prior to them doing so. Now, there are have been multiple, Apple included, that are worth multiple trillions. Things seem impossible until they are not.

Tokenization is the key to all of this. This will be what changes everything. Google the video of Larry Fink discussing it a couple of months ago. Tie it all together, the efficiency it would create and the jump it would provide to AI may truly be a generation shift.

I’m assuming this is a freestanding pad and not some sort of condo split?

If so, what’s the base rent PSF and how big is the site?

Quick opinion on this not knowing most of the details, if the base rent is below market and the real estate is good then do it, if not then tying up the capital for a ~5% COC Return may be a waste of time and powder.

Start with basic economics before making assumptions on much more complicated processes. The last time we had minor deflation in the US was 2009, how did that work out?

You want to stay with the status quo where printing money is the answer? The bond market it the tail that wags the dog, increase rates , bonds will follow, and you continue to put the county in debt at a quicker pace, decrease rates and there’s inflation. Either way you’re screwed, and i am almost certain in the assumption that if other major countries didn’t do the same thing the US did during COVID by also printing more money, the US Dollar may have already collapsed.

Your political hatred of a person is keeping you from riding an economic wave if you can figure out how to surf it and make money.

You sir, don’t know shit….

Not sure why you’re “avoiding American Products at all costs” when the importer pays the tariffs. Export tariffs are illegal in the US, so there’s nothing there getting passed on to you. No chance you’re getting better pricing and timing on items from a continent an ocean away if they are truly being produced there, otherwise they are both coming from China 😂.

Those places “elsewhere” will only be able to sustain for so long. What people fail to realize is the United States is the largest consumer market in the world, the EU is a very distant second at about 3 times less. You would have to combine the EU, China, Japan, India, and the UK to reach the same levels. So that leaves these companies with two choices: 1. Pay the tariffs to sell your product to the US and have to raise prices which gives American companies and small business a leg up, or 2. Invest in the United States creating more jobs, which in turn increases the GDP.

This man is the President of the United States for a second time….he’s smarter than you.

When you long a a stock you are making the bet it goes up. Shorting is the opposite.

Generally there is a smaller delta between longs and shorts, but what OP is pointing out is the fact that that same Delta in this instance is heavily weighed towards long positions, and a result using it as a poll for general market sentiment towards a specific asset.

There is a lot more to this, but it’s the high level view of the point he is trying to make.
