10h ago41:39

41:39

I approached this from a place of curiosity, not cynicism. And then I found DataRepublican. She’s built systems to track government spending, flagged insane misuse of funds, and all…

43:16

A Note from James: I can't think of anything more boring to talk about than tariffs, but right now, I can't think of anything more interesting either.

A Note from James: Is it possible to travel around the world, live around the world, do remote work anywhere you want, and spend just $75 a day or less? When I was younger, I wish I'd tried this.

25:27

Notes from James: I’ve been seeing a ton of misinformation lately about tariffs and inflation, so I had to set the record straight.

27:29

Notes from James: What if I told you that we could eliminate the IRS, get rid of personal income taxes completely, and still keep the government funded? Sounds impossible, right?

Is Fort Knox Empty!? | News You Might Have Missed 31:17

2M ago31:17

31:17

A note from James: I love digging into topics that make us question everything we thought we knew. Fort Knox is one of those legendary places we just assume is full of gold, but has anyone really checked?

How Anyone Can Make Their First Million, James Altucher on My First Exit 1:13:09

3M ago1:13:09

1:13:09

A Note from James: You know what drives me crazy? When people say, "I have to build a personal brand." Usually, when something has a brand, like Coca-Cola, you think of a tasty, satisfying drink on a hot day. But really, a brand is a lie—it's the difference between perception and reality. Coca-Cola is just a sugary brown drink that's unhealthy for …
