What's up everybody? My name is Demetra Grafinas and you're listening to Hidden Forces,

a podcast that inspires investors, entrepreneurs and everyday citizens to challenge consensus narratives

and to learn how to think critically about the systems of power shaping our world.

Today's discussion was originally conducted as a live Q&A for members of our Hidden Forces

Genius Community, with writer and author Jared Dillian. Jared is the editor of The Daily Dirt Now,

a daily market newsletter for investment professionals focused on gauging and capitalizing on

changes in market sentiment. He's also the author of several successful books, including his most recent

we're going to get those bastards, which is about everything that is depraved, especially

finance, culture, music and sex. Our conversation ranges from discussions

about market psychology, national security and politics to things like how to handle financial

success, how to use Twitter with integrity and even what happens to us when we die, which

Jared has some very interesting theories to share. If you want to join in on these conversations

in the future and become a member of the Hidden Forces Genius Community,

which includes regular Q&A calls like this one, access to special research and analysis provided

by our contributors, in-person events and dinners like our upcoming one in London on June 29th.

You can do that at hiddenforces.io-subscribe and if you still have questions, feel free to send

an email to infoat-hiddenforces.io and I or someone from our team will get right back to you.

And with that, please enjoy this absolutely wonderful conversation about life,

finance and the depraved with my guest, Jared Dillian.

Jared Dillian, welcome back to Hidden Forces. Thank you.
