Can Trump get us Greenland, the Panama Canal, and the moon? Here are four steps

January 3, 2025

Can Trump get us Greenland, the Panama Canal, and the moon?

In the parallel universe of the United States of Trump, we acquire Greenland, retake the Panama Canal, take the moon, control space, annex Canada, and maybe get rid of free Puerto Rico. All those are on Trump's radar and wish list.  To accomplish any of them sounds almost impossible at this time. However, playing wth tariffs, getting out of NATO, letting the Middle East solve its own problems, and beginning or joining WWIII, can make everything possible. 

Trump Tariffs will Shake Things Up

Playing arbitrarily and capriciously with high tariffs will begin to disrupt the status quo and global economic order. Getting out of NATO would open Europe to more Russian aggression. Maybe Greenland can be the token paid by Europe to the United States in return for the costly military defense. 

The Middle East May Rot in Peace

Letting folks in the Middle East solve their own problems can provide enough fuel for WWIII. Jews and Muslims have more in common than anybody, sharing the same god. They must learn to coexist in peace under their god of the desert. Unfortunately, it will take more fighting and killing to get to peace but that is how it typically works for all primates including humans. Peace comes from the realization that war is futile. That realization typically comes after the war and rarely prior to it. 

Embrace World War III

Word War III is practically inevitable. WWII is a matter of when not if. The key for the United States is to stay out it until everyone else is exhausted. That is China's plan for sure. And no, China will not retake Taiwan until it is sure that it can do so and win WWIII.

Can any of this really happen?

It is not likely but it is possible. A WWIII could reshape global order, If the United States of Trump wins the war, we can certainly end up owning Greenland, retaking the Panama Canal, claiming the moon, controlling space, and maybe releasing Puerto Rico if it is too expensive to maintain although why give up something that we already own. The idea under a Trump empire is to have more, not less.

Is WWIII the worst that can happen?

Although a third world war sounds terrible, it's probably better for Amrericans that a second civil war. While WWIII may unite us and make us stronger, while a CW2 would most likely split us and make us weaker. 

What should do now?

If you are smart, you should start planning for an inevitable WWIII. It's terrible to think that way, but it would be worse to taken by surprise. The fact is that there is practically nothing that you can do to stop the war. Your best move is to prepare for it. Keep investing in yourself. Keep working on your health, which is your greatest wealth. Keep improving your skills as a problem-solver. That's all there is to life, an unlimited array of problems. Intelligence is problem-solving ability. By becoming a good problem solver, your will do well in peace, war, and everything in between. 

Now you know it.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...
