"The most expensive kind of money is free money."

This episode sits down with Graham Stephan to discuss whether the US dollar is at risk as national debt nears $40 trillion and the Fed buys long-term Treasuries to push yields down. Graham explains why he does not expect a Venezuela-style collapse but does expect the dollar to keep losing value, why free money has historically led to market surges, and why a future anti-wealth president could trigger a 50 to 60 percent market drop.

Jaspreet Singh also covers whether AI is a bubble and how it could reshape jobs, why Graham holds Bitcoin through an ETF instead of cold storage, why he now thinks renting beats buying on the numbers, and why he sold his rental properties for tax-free municipal bonds. They close with the Pokemon card market, remote work versus the office, and what it takes to build wealth in America today.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• How yield control works and why buying long-term Treasuries to lower yields amounts to printing money
• Why Graham expects the dollar to lose value over time without collapsing overnight
• Why more wealth is usually lost waiting for a crash than by buying and holding through one
• Why Graham sees market downturns as discounts and how he acted on that in 2020 and 2022
• How Graham approaches Bitcoin, including why he chose a Bitcoin ETF over a hardware wallet
• Why Graham says buying a house is a lifestyle purchase while renting wins on the numbers
• How AI could displace workers, why the trades may last longest, and why learning to use AI protects your career
• Why Graham says the best path to wealth is finding what you are uniquely good at and investing consistently

He then covers why private equity and private credit are showing early stress, and how he uses always be buying, market shifts, and market crashes to stay calm and keep building wealth.
