I asked grok to run the same numbers for Canada - even scarier results here 🤦♂️
Apparently compression is at 2.28
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised given Mark Carnage is now running the show.
@grok How much do you need to make in Canada to be a top 5% earner?
Where does $100k put you in % terms?
@grok can you run the same numbers on wage compression for Canada
The UK has a far flatter income distribution than the Communist Soviet Union.
The UK take home minimum wage for working a full time job (40-hours) is now £22,555.
At £100k salary, the take home is £68,558.
That is a net income ratio of 3.04:1
We are now at the point where the wage compression and taxes in the UK means that the difference between minimum wage and a top 5% salary is a net income difference of only ~3x.
In the USSR using the same comparison, this figure never fell below 5:1
It's actually even worse in reality because the person earning £100k in the UK often has student loans.
Britain is nominally capitalist but functionally communist. China is nominally communist but functionally capitalist.
Funny how that works.
I have been a Buffalo Bills season ticket holder for 10+ years. Go to 5+ games a year and have NEVER had a bad experience.
The Americans have always been AWESOME to us.
We vacation as a family in Florida every year and it has always been 100% positive as well.
Don't believe the fake division - Completely fabricated.
Exactly!
Patience is key.
Know what you hold, avoid leverage and wait.
It's not sexy, it's not exciting, it will not get your endorphins firing every 30 seconds - but it will allow you to sleep like a baby and ultimately end up much better off.
Yet my brother in law said the following 2 sentences to me as recently as Sunday:
1. You’re not still buying bitcoin are you?
2. Everyone I’ve heard try and explain that to me makes it sound like a Ponzi scheme
🤦♂️
……something something something - at the price they deserve…
Option A every time!!
But I’m ditching that rental property and putting all the proceeds into SATS or STRC for hassle free income as soon as I can 😂.
We have around $200k on our primary residence (at 2.89%) and around $40k on my car (at 4%).
We have assets (mainly BTC and BTCTC's) that could pay them off several times over - but why on earth would I do that?
I will happily let my investments out pace the interest while our government also debases the debt - lol.
After reading this post it would seem that I also agree with @ZynxBTC on 99% of things.
But maybe more importantly I might agree with 100% of the MSTR thesis held by @d_1awrence
I am happy to let @saylor cook - I trust he knows what he’s doing!!
This wouldn't happen to be the same Morgan Stanley that runs the MSCI indexes that is supposedly looking to kick MSTR out of its indices is it?
LOL
So laughable.....
Watch what they do, not what they say!!!
I dunno - timeframes matter.
ASST has had a good run the last few months - but when you zoom out and look over the last year - MSTR has done very well.
I don’t think it should be looked at as “better bear market” or “winning a race”
The 2 companies aren’t competing - they are at different stages (I would argue they aren’t even in the same race any more)
I hold both and am happy with performance and execution of both.
You do realize that @Strategy has purchased 175k BTC in 2026….
That is 4x the total BTC that strive has.
Not sure they lost any race 😂
The last few weeks/months have been great to watch (I hold ASST as well), but when you zoom out just a little bit MSTR is still WAY out in front.
Facts!
The fact that Morgan Stanley actually owns almost 10 Million shares of MSTR tells me that is just another round of FUD to shake people out.
Watching what they do, not what they say!
