Who is the sucker?

I read a story recently about a lady school teacher in Yazoo City, Miss., in the impoverished Delta country that is teaching unprivileged kids and there is not enough money to even pay her a salary. Yet kids that would fall through the crack of life are staying in school and making plans for the future. When asked about financial strain she faces, she uttered a phrase that applies to all of us: “What I don’t get in this life, I will get in the next.”

That phrase indicates good news for some and not so good for others.

I generally look at the financial news every day and noticed that Bitcoin has now reached $100,000, four times what it was a few months ago and a few analysts are predicting it will go over a $1,000,000 in 2025, an increase of 40 times within 18 months. Old-timers say you never know whether something is real or a bubble until it pops.
