I just found my rung on the Abundance Ladder: The Independent, climbing toward The Moonshot. My next move: Price one machine that earns. Where are you? #AbundanceLadder abundanceladder.com/r/indepe…

Tuesday’s US midterms flipped Congress. Two years ago, voters swung hard the other way. Different winners, same message: people are angry, and they’re not sure at whom. I don’t think this is only an American story. Over the past few years, voters across much of the world have thrown out whoever was in charge. From where I sit in Mexico, I hear the same frustration in different accents. Ask people why, and you get a long list of targets. Immigrants. Corrupt politicians. Greedy corporations. And now AI. Each one gets some of the blame. But I think most of us are feeling something we struggle to name: the ladder our parents climbed has lost its rungs. You can work hard, do everything “right,” and still watch a home, a family, and a secure retirement move further out of reach. Here’s the part that rarely makes it into a stump speech. Since 2008, and again in 2020, governments and central banks have created money at a pace few of us really took in. New money doesn’t reach everyone at once. It reaches asset owners and those closest to the money printer first. Everyone else gets it last, as higher prices for rent, groceries and gas. That widens the wealth gap regardless of who wins an election. The good news is that there’s a way out, and it isn’t a party platform. Technology is naturally deflationary. AI, solar, robotics and other converging technologies keep pushing the cost of intelligence, energy and production toward zero. In an honest money system, that abundance would show up as everyday things getting cheaper. Pair it with a store of value nobody can print more of, like Bitcoin, and ordinary people get to keep the gains from progress instead of watching inflation eat them. The question is whether you’re positioned to benefit, or still standing on the old ladder. That’s why I built the Abundance Ladder, a free 5-minute assessment that shows where you stand today on the path to an abundant future, and three practical next moves to climb. Left, right or somewhere in between, take it here: lnkd.in/e_viirCw Then tell me in the comments: what rung did you land on, and who do you think is really to blame?

Surprised Ricky doesn't have more followers on X yet. He produces a lot of great content on sound money, Bitcoin, Abundance both in short videos and his weekly pod, Age of Abundance. If you like Bitcoin and Abundance, you should follow him.

I continue to receive strong feedback for this self diagnostic tool helping people figure out where they fit on the Abundance Ladder which I consider to be the new alternative to the Corporate Ladder. It is available in English and Spanish here and only takes a few minutes. When you finish you get tips on how to move up the ladder if you desire on topics related to the adoption of AI into your life, creating pathways to earn while you sleep and saving in sound money that can't be debased! abundanceladder.com

For those who measure things in dollars still, Bitcoin now sub 76k looks like a bargain (DYOR).

Mil gracias por compartir este trabajo con la comunidad en español. El mundo se ha cambiado y hay una oportunidad nueva para todos para identificar su propósito y alcanzarlo con planificación.

My take on the elections: The US populace is rejecting this current version of MAGA/Trump. They wanted no forever wars, decreased cost of living, hope for the future and that is not what they are experiencing. I, for one, am hopeful, this allows the centrist, moderate republicans to retake the Republican Party and join with disenchanted republicans like those affiliated with the Lincoln Project.

That was me and my Grok Bot. She came out of nowhere top inject herself into our live pod. But hey, if anyone questioned how much I use AI tools, that is evidence I indeed have a Grok Bot team working around the clock :)

Had some very engaging conversations with many Bitcoiners and abundance minded innovators in Punta Mita the past few days. And some enriching conversations with @JeffBooth and his wife Kelly (who actually wanted to read my book, Bitcoin Singularity:)

Great closing session at Punta Mita on a bitcoin, AI and energy with Jose Carlos from @arcadiabtc @lisa_hough_ @JeffBooth and Tony Rallo
