Yesterday, Matt filled you in on a certain situation — a situation we believe poses enormous risk to your financial security:

Inflation.

As he explained, at current inflation levels, not only is your existing cash getting crushed…

But over time, your retirement account could lose over 75% of its value.

Hallelujah!

With the Fed raising rates, we can finally start earning something on our cash:

For example, as of this week, we can earn more than 3% on a 10-year U.S. Treasury.

There’s just one problem, and it’s a doozy.

Today, I’ll explain what it is — and then we…

Seabiscuit. Secretariat. Seattle Slew.

They weren’t just great racehorses. They were great investments.

The thing is, thoroughbreds are wildly expensive.

That’s why, historically, only millionaires could invest in them — and only millionaires could enjoy all the excitement and potential profits that go along with owning them.

My brother can’t find a good bagel.

But still, he’s a good kid, and he deserves a good bagel.

The problem is, he used to live in New York City, home of the best bagels on earth.…

In 1985, when I was about to go to college, I bought myself an expensive watch.

During a recent business trip, I rented a Tesla to get from San Francisco to Los Angeles.

I’d been behind the wheel of a Tesla a few times before. But this was the first time I’d taken one for a long-distance road trip. You probably won’t be surprised to hear…

Fred Wilson is one of the most successful startup investors in the world.

For example, he was an early startup investor in Twitter, Twilio, and Etsy — all of which are now multi-billion-dollar publicly traded companies.

That’s why he regularly tops Forbes’ “Midas List” of early-stage tech investors, and is…

Elon Musk sure knows how to make money — for himself, and for his investors.

For instance, he co-founded PayPal (PYPL), which is now worth over $132 billion. He also founded Tesla Motors (TSLA), which is currently worth more than $1 trillion.

In fact, if you’d invested in Tesla’s IPO,…

Can you guess what the most expensive object in the world is?

While you’re thinking about your answer, let me tell you what it’s not:

• It’s not the Burj Khalifa, the tallest skyscraper in the world, which cost $1.5 billion to construct.
• It’s not London’s Heathrow airport, which required…

But once upon a time, America did great things.
