| 0:00.0 | I'm Tom Billu and this is Impact Theory. I've been asking myself a question a lot lately. |
| 0:05.0 | Have the markets completely disconnected from reality? |
| 0:08.0 | It used to be that investing was about finding strong companies, understanding their value, and making smart calculated moves for the long run. |
| 0:16.0 | But today, we've got meme coin soaring, AI-driven trading, and billion-dollar valuations on companies |
| 0:22.0 | with no fundamentals. |
| 0:24.0 | This isn't just market volatility. |
| 0:25.9 | This is a total rewrite of how wealth is created. |
| 0:29.2 | And that's why I wanted to bring back today's guest. |
| 0:32.6 | He has his finger on the pulse of these massive shifts, and I need him to help me make sense of what's really going on. |
| 0:39.1 | Is Bitcoin still the best hedge against economic chaos? Will AI traders out maneuver us all? |
| 0:45.1 | And when we see a U.S. president launching a meme coin, what does that say about where we're headed? |
| 0:51.2 | If you're still thinking about money and investing the way that you did five years ago, it is time for an update. This conversation is about making sure you're not the one |
| 0:59.5 | left holding the bag. So without further ado, here's my sit down with the one and only, Anthony |
| 1:04.7 | Pompliano. If you would, give me a 2025 investing primer. I want to know for the person who just wants |
| 1:12.4 | like a set and forget investing strategy, where should they be putting their money right now? |
| 1:17.6 | Well, each person is different, right? Some people have different risk profiles, other people |
| 1:21.3 | have different knowledge sets. But I think that a lot of the timeless investing principles are |
| 1:25.2 | really important. So you should basically create a system that you can automate. And it pays to pay yourself first. So what most people do is they get paid. They take the money. They spend it in all their expenses and they hope there's a little bit of money left over. But a great way to ensure that you're able to invest is to actually take out of your paycheck, your investment money first, and then spend what is left over? So that's kind of the first thing is you got to get money to be able to invest. Then what do you do with that investment money? And really, I think for the average person, what you want to be able to do is you want a dollar cost average. Every time you get a paycheck, you want to take some portion of it. You want to put it into the S&P 500, NASDAQ, and then I like Bitcoin as well. |
| 2:02.1 | And the reason why those three assets is because they likely have very long-term resilience. |
| 2:08.3 | They have a return profile that is pretty good. And also, they're very simple to understand. |
| 2:15.0 | You kind of know what you're buying. I think where people tend to get in trouble is if you are a amateur, but you are trying to make professional moves. And so I say, just like the person who goes in place pick up basketball on the Saturday, wouldn't try to go play in the NBA, I don't think that the person who says, hey, I'm going to spend 30 minutes a month on the investing world should try to go and pick individual stocks or use leverage or short things or anything |
| 2:38.5 | like that. And so understand kind of what your knowledge set is, understand what your kind of |
