Everyone's heard of the spectacular collapse of that just because people were betting on the tier-one token, which players can earn directly. And that can be unsustainable in the long run. You have to be more careful than that.” - Andrew Wagner “I really appreciate learning more about how blockchain is affecting the entire gaming industry because it's a huge, huge economic powerhouse for investors, the entire gaming industry.” - Cassandra Toroian SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ Andrew Wagner Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SirWagginston LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theandrewwagner/ WEBSITE Cassandra Toroian: https://cassandratoroian.net/ FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/ Don’t Buy The Bull: https://dontbuythebull.io/ Rising Star: https://risingstargame.com/…

And so, that's going to affect people's travel plans for the summer. Regardless, again, because the rate of change in the price of gasoline may not be as high, but gasoline itself is still much higher than it was in 2021. So People are not traveling abroad quite as much.” SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ WEBSITE FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/ Don’t Buy The Bull: https://dontbuythebull.io/…

QUOTES “Details matter. Right. One of the things is to look at elections from the voter's or the citizen's perspective. That's why right now, misinformation and disinformation. And the difference is, disinformation is intentionally aimed at telling a falsehood. Misinformation is just, you got the facts.” - Jack Young “This idea of pushing a thing down to the states works in the whole question of a woman's right to her own body. And again, I don't think that's really a Republican or Democratic issue. It is a little bit of a, I think, misguided religious question. But what's interesting, again, is if one of our foundations particularly one of the foundations of the Republican Party, is individual liberty. How do you blend that with this idea of, I'm going to tell you what you can or can't do with your body?” - Jack Young “If you want to help protect your shares from being used by short sellers, here's what you have to do. You call your brokerage firm and say, I want my shares moved from a marginal account to a cash-only account. And just that one little change.

Overall, the episode underscores the significance of investing in blockchain technology and comprehending Web3 concepts as essential steps toward potential financial gains in the evolving tech landscape. QUOTES “We can use our own collective computer power to power the internet. And that is the basis for this whole entire concept of decentralization. That way, nobody really has more power than anybody else, or no entity has more power than anybody else. It's really a beautiful thing.” “The concept of Web 3 is essentially the, let's call it, internet platform so that the decentralization on your client side, on your computer, looks kind of like what you're used to, even though it's pulling the data from all of these nodes in the background. But it's much faster. It's much more secure. And ultimately, it allows all of its users complete privacy or at least control over who they wish to disclose their identity to. So that means monetization goes back to the hands of the people.” “This is a subject that gets very technical and complicated, but I really feel it's very important for everybody out there to have some basics about what it is because we're all going to be using it and we're all going to be looking to understand it so that we can make money in it by investing in it somehow.” SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ WEBSITE FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/…

And that's where I say to myself, that company, I'm not touching it. Because why would I want to invest in a company that I think has flawed management? And until proven differently, they're staying on my no-touch list." "I just don't feel comfortable investing in companies that I think may have contributed to people dying intentionally, you know, intentionally contributing to people dying." "They've got all kinds of data that they can sell to third parties that would be interested in where you spend your time in order to market to you as the consumer-driven economy we are. So we have right now no real control over our own data. And yet hundreds of billions upon billions of dollars every year are being made by these corporations using that data that they consider they got for free. Well, it's not really their data. It's our data. It's your life. It's my life."

Experiencing FOMO in Finance 11:30

In episode 3 of Don’t Buy The Bull, Cassandra Toroian delves into the concept of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and its impact on investing. She also discusses the dangers of making investment decisions based on envy, greed, and short-term emotions. Tune in to gain insights on making sound investment decisions by overcoming the fear of missing out. TIMESTAMPS [00:01:17] FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) in Investing. [00:09:20] Short Selling and Stock Market. [00:10:25] Investing in Gold Advice.

Additionally, Cassandra stresses the importance of prioritizing fundamental investing principles over speculative trading. By adhering to a sound investment strategy based on quality stocks and long-term growth potential, investors can mitigate risks and work towards achieving their financial goals in a prudent and sustainable manner. QUOTES “Just as we can invest and buy a stock for the long term, there are people out there who will do the opposite. Their form of investing is actually shorting a stock. That means they're selling the stock that they don't own. And their conclusion is that stock because that company is flawed fundamentally, that stock will go down.” “You can look it up and see what exactly a company's short percentage is. And it'll even tell you the number of days it would take for that stock to cover all of its shorts. In other words, If a company has a small float of stock, it could take many, many days for them to cover and close out the short positions because it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.” “But my point is, is that if you don't take a look at what is going on with a company's stock as far as the short position percentage out there and how many days to cover that it would take, that can be a very bad recipe for disaster if you're feeling like you're missing out and wanna get in on one of these.” SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ WEBSITE FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/…

The emergence of financial institutions that prioritize customer inclusivity and non-discrimination based on politics or purchases presents a positive shift in the banking industry, offering individuals more choices and control over their financial interactions. QUOTES “My only goal is to help you figure out how to use your own discernment and instinct to make good investment decisions for yourself.” “To cancel someone's debit card and potentially leave them out on the street in a very precarious situation is absolutely unconscionable and shameful.” “I would urge everyone to really look at what kind of bank relationship they have and make sure that you have an out or some backup bank accounts elsewhere. Even if it's $100 at your local credit union, it is important.” SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ WEBSITE FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/…

So that as I started to go through this process, I could get a better understanding of what was going to separate the good from the bad.” “So we're gonna get more into this and we're gonna be talking actually to some bank management teams along the way, as well as other public company management teams.” SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Cassandra Toroian Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CassandraToroian/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CassandraToroian1/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cassandra-toroian/ WEBSITE FirstHand Research and Consulting LLC: https://1sthandresearch.com/…
