Popping Market Bubbles
I not only foresee - I will welcome!

Because our long-term investment options
Are overdue for diversification
sufficient to move it from representing only the Global-scale enterprises in our economy,
to supporting and reflecting the entirety of our money-based economy

I think those with the microphones HATE that notion.
But the other 99.99% of us should welcome that upgrade with open arms.
It would do us good on many fronts, relatively easily

Though there will be screeching from the minority who hold the stage
and markets will need time to correct in response to this systemic shift.

Any investment portfolio worth it's salt is built to weather market corrections!

And the economic seas on the far side of this particular storm
will offer us all much smoother sailing!

I hope you listen.
Let me know if you do!
Out on September 1 wherever you find your podcasts

-how to talk productively to politicians.

Via some frontline drama involving:
- a Slaughterhouse trap-job,

Each given the context that set up those dramatic moments!

It gets juicy!

The cost of free money -
to those who take it &
of those who can't afford it & so don't do things we want done

Is the focus of Something Different This Way Comes this week.

Canada is behind our peers when it comes to financing
small, medium and mission-driven work.

And right now is a great time to raise your voice
the feds are asking for input as they prepare our National budget
Tell your Federal representative why you want us to catch up and do better!

Or maybe you'd rather put your shoulder to this wheel more pragmatically.
Not wait for solutions on high
But help build them where you are with what you have
That's a growing trend!
