The Roth IRA was created to fuel the retirement savings of 1) middle class Americans, and 2) Peter Thiel. Things kickoff with a discussion of Peter Thiel's $5 billion Roth IRA, quite a site to be seen. Skippy and Doogles then play a little game called Rational/Irrational where they judge the rationality of things like bubble psychology, the recent crypto crash and 48" vertical leaps. Recent government actions are up next, first with some small but meaningful movement on the infrastructure bill, and next with bi-partisan early support for some anti-big tech measures — both of which could move markets. Doogles then gives a history lesson on cross-shareholding in Japan as he searches for international investment opportunities, and the show wraps with an overview of a recent Lending Tree survey on American's use of debt to invest (spoiler alert: Americans are into it!).
