📝 The hidden rules of class

Money, time, even humor. Each social class plays by different rules. What feels normal in one group can look foreign in another.

🟡 Poverty: money is to be spent, time lived in the moment, humor is survival

🟡 Middle class: money is managed, education is the ladder, focus is on achievement

🟡 Wealthy: money is invested, time guided by tradition, emphasis on connections and expectations

It is not about right or wrong. It is about recognizing the script you are following. Once you see the rules, you can decide whether to keep playing or change the game.

🌿 Cannabis stocks skyrocket after Trump backs CBD for seniors

Pot stocks ripped higher after President Trump endorsed cannabidiol as a tool for senior healthcare. His administration is also considering reclassifying marijuana, a move that could ease restrictions and cut tax burdens on the sector.

🟡 Tilray +46%, Aurora +29%, Canopy Growth +18%, Cronos +16%
🟡 MSOS ETF +24%, on track for its best quarter ever (+70% YTD)
🟡 Trump called hemp-derived CBD a potential “revolution” for healthcare
🟡 Reclassification from Schedule I to III would lower penalties and allow deductions under tax code 280E

Once written off as a dead trade, cannabis is suddenly back on the table and with political backing, momentum could have more legs.

🎓 The changing view on college

🟡 For those with a bachelor’s degree, it’s 1 in 25
🟡 “Not too important” responses climbed to 24% in 2025, the highest on record

Public perception may be shifting, but the numbers show education still draws the line between stability and poverty.

In most areas of life, you can’t afford to be wrong too often.
You can’t be a doctor who keeps misdiagnosing patients.
Or an engineer, and have your bridges collapse half the time.

But trading is different.
You will be wrong a lot.
That’s part of the game.

And if you don’t come to peace with that, you’ll keep fighting the market… or yourself.
This requires traders to reframe their definition of what it means to be wrong.

Being wrong doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It only means you haven’t mastered what really matters yet - risk, mindset, and recovery.
