If you don't groove to this, do you even have a heart? It's got so much groove, so much feels, like some old school disco with modern touches... god, Madeon is back and I'm fucking down for it! Dude took three years to drop a new track, but good god it's fire.

Warren Buffet gets corrupt politicians to bend the markets (Blue Chips and Real Estate) in his favor.  George Soros (eg: when he went after FX of British pound) makes money by destroying governments by being contrarian.

To make big money, you need government assistance (either working for you or against you).

Most of us don't have that kind of pull.  You can see what the big boys are doing, and try to ride their coattails.  Little old ladies in the US have investment coffee klatches.

Hold long term.  Buy low, sell high.  You win some, you lose some.  Never bet more than you can afford to lose.

Some nice music from Van Eck's sequence:

QuoteHOW THE SEQUENCE IS DEFINED

You look for the last number in the sequence so far. If it is the first occurrence of that number, set the next number to 0. Otherwise, set the next number in the sequence to the number of terms since it's last occurrence.

Example:

0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 6, 0, 5, 0, 2, 6, 5,
when you get to this point, the last number is 5, and it repeats another 5 which was 4 terms earlier.. So the next number in the sequence is 4.
0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 6, 0, 5, 0, 2, 6, 5, 4

But now this is the first 4 in the sequence so far, so the next number is 0.
0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 6, 0, 5, 0, 2, 6, 5, 4, 0,
The last 0 was 5 terms earlier, so the next number is 5
0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 6, 0, 5, 0, 2, 6, 5, 4, 0, 5,
The last 5 was 3 terms earlier so the next number is 3
0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 6, 0, 5, 0, 2, 6, 5, 4, 0, 5, 3
and so it goes on.

ABOUT THE TUNING

The tuning is a pentatonic scale.

Because the numbers go so  high in this sequence eventually, I set the scale to "wrap around". I did it so that the pitches go:

1/1 5/4 3/2 5/3 2/1 1/1 ...

That's how you get the octave above the 1/1 as well as the 1/1 both played, and why you get the same note played by numbers that are 6 apart so 0, 6, 12, ... play the same note, the 1/1, and 1, 7, 13, ... play the 5/4, and so on. 5, 11, 17, ... play the 2/1.

Yeah, that's where I heard about it, then googled it looking for the music. Several sequences have interesting music, this one's especially nice to listen to.

And it's a really easy sequence to generate, which makes it fun.

Well, sure we put children in cages - but they're gilded cages! Just like summer camp - in North Korea.

Dunno about that flossing part, makes me think they deserve to be there.
