What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 284 & BENKYO RADIO 284.

It appears that Elon Musk will have his Dogecoin sketch this weekend. Cryptocurrency is huge. Don’t listen to dinosaur Warren Buffett. He’s simply an old geezer that the Wall Street Journal keep stroking him because he’s really rich. The future belongs to normal people, not the rich. Cryptocurrency will be the next gold standard. I believe in dogecoin. I will hold for a while because we all remember the Bitcoin (BTC) story: 2013, $1 = 1 Bitcoin, 2020, $50,000 = 1 Bitcoin. You have to admit that. You have to admit that Coinbase went IPO and is worth billions of dollars. Cryptocurrency is no longer a joke. It’s real. And for millions of us who are barely getting by, paycheck per paycheck, or waiting for Unemployment or Stimulus Checks, a small cryptocurrency investment can make a huge difference. Do NOT invest your lifesavings. ONLY invest a little bit, and watch your fruits go.

Until next time!
