The Great Bifurcation: Your Future Job is Managing Money

Mark E. Jeftovic, the risk‑savvy thinker from bombthrower.com, famously warned: “In the future there will be only one occupation: managing one’s wealth…and most people are going to be unemployed.” He got that right, and it’s a fascinating, if slightly unsettling, prospect.

What Does That Really Mean?

Picture this: The typical office desk becomes a life‑saver. You’ll either be the expert who knows how to make your money grow or the passive bystander who watches his portfolio pickle. It’s an obvious choice: either refine your financial instincts or risk ending up in a job market that looks nothing like the one you grew up in.

Two Possible Futures

• Financial Ninja: You’re a master of assets, risk, and returns. You manage your own wealth and help others do the same.
• Traditional Side‑Job: You keep a more conventional job that doesn’t focus on wealth management, relying on your paycheck to stay afloat.

Skills that Matter in the Wealth Management Era

• Understanding compound interest
• Screening investment opportunities
• Adapting to market volatility
• Keeping a long‑term view

The Human Side of Moving Forward

I’ve been off the keyboard for a while – traveling a bit more and burning out after the last Canadian election. But this phenomenon isn’t just a technical shift; it’s a psychological one too.

When people talk about “being unemployed,” they’re really talking about being irrelevant in a new economy. And that’s where the emotional sauce comes in: it’s not just about paying the bills; it’s about feeling empowered.

Imagine the literal weight of your money on your shoulders – light as a feather when you’re growing it, heavy as a boulder when you’re not. The key is to keep that feather.

Time to Upgrade Your Resume

Whoever has an eye for value will know that the best future job is not the “most in vogue” but the “most essential.” It’s all about navigating a world where wealth management is survival.

So ask yourself this: Can I learn to grow my own money in a way that feels both fun and profitable? That’s the question that will define your career for the next decade.

The Great Political Reality Check

Whoa, folks! I just had a surprise mood‑swirl reading about Canada’s political dance – we thought we’d tip the scales into a Conservative super‑majority after a decade of Liberal rule, but then boom the trend flipped, and it’s as weird as a spin‑cycle on an espresso machine.

What actually happened?

• The “Elbows Up” moment wasn’t a suggestion, it was a full‑blown mind‑flick that flipped the electorate’s voting wheel faster than a drunk hamster on a wheel.
• Canadians suddenly moved their votes toward the candidate that Donald Trump wanted them to pick – because apparently, the whole country has a “Trump Derangement Syndrome” that turns into a super‑charged political flip‑flop.
• A few weeks of this “political roller coaster” and suddenly the whole 10‑year Liberal plan is no longer a looming disaster but a historical footnote.

Why was Canada so easily swayed?

• Steve Bannon famously said the “51st State” campaigns were a tactical ploy for re‑electing liberals, and Trump actually did a big “victory lap” after the election – a celebration that left many Canadians feeling triumphant but also a tad confused.
• The real reason? Canadians are dream‑spreading the idea that Alberta can be a “possible future state” now that #WEXIT gets underway, with the notion of economic or political integration made to feel like a friendly lease‑agreement.
• Meanwhile, a minority government is riding the quasi‑majority wave, pushing legislation like Bill C‑2 (Strong Borders Act), which is basically a giant “ticking box” for mass surveillance and anti‑cash warfare.

What does this mean for Canadians?

There’s a record number of politically homeless folks out there, feeling stuck while technocrats push policies that feel like a directed campaign of division. Picture this:

• 865,000 new immigrants admitted this year (YTD) into an economy that earned only 8,800 new jobs.
• While the top brass hit on “pollution free” and “diversity” campaigns, the actual numbers show we’re still falling short.

It’s like watching your favourite ice‑cream shop being replaced by a drive‑through chain that promises you personalized desserts but turns out to be all plastic and pre‑packaged nonsense.

Will this administration hold?

We’ll see if this quasi‑majority sticks or if the flips end fast, especially as oppressive bills and policies start to feel super‑heavy. Stay tuned – the political carousel is rumbling louder than a snowplow on a highway at midnight.

Why am I surprised?

When I Look Back on My Own Writing

Looking over my own scribbles, I kept it down to an uncomfortable truth: the era where nation‑states rule the roost is fading. The biggest driver in the world right now? The relentless pace of change. I didn’t expect anything out of the ordinary.

From the Machine‑Gun Hierarchy to a Wild Mesh

• We’re escaping the old industrial age’s top‑down, obedient chain of command.
• Instead, the globe is morphing into a chaotic, ever‑shifting network where sovereign boundaries blur with corporate fronts, crowns fade into data flows.
• That new structure acts like a super‑conductor, blasting data, information, memes—plus disinformation, sad stories, and mass‑mind split‑outs—fast across the planet.

Enter the Third‑Eye Technology

• AI is the latest big shock wave of the century.
• It follows the internet, which broke down traditional state‑led communication, and Bitcoin, which upended state control over money.
• Like a tiny dragon, AI now soars on the same untethered currents, pushing the world into an uncharted, hyper‑linked future.

Who’s Got the Brainpower Now?

In case you missed the latest episode of Tamarack.ai, the world has just pulled the Big Bang switch on decentralized, non‑state intelligence. Yeah, it’s happening—no more waiting for the government to pull your brain out to put it in a box. Think of this as the new internet of thoughts, where everyone can tap into the entire sum of human knowledge instantly, only at a price that’s basically 0.

The Personal Think‑Tank Revolution

Each one of us now has the power of a tiny but mighty think‑tank right in our wallets:

• Instant OSINT – scavenge the web like a detective, but way faster.
• Agentic AI – robots that can act on your behalf, plotting long‑term or quick‑wins.
• Spycraft‑style services – imagine a squad of agents in your pocket, gathering intel and acting like your personal body‑guard.

Picture it: Your phone is a spieswarm, scanning your network to glean every data point you need. No elaborate office needed—just you, your device, and a few lines of code.

Everything’s Connected, All the Time

Every node, every device, every piece of software—yes, even that funky kitchen mug with a Wi‑Fi chip—now has the ability to tap into that endless stream of data and act on it. The world has become a giant, humming brain where information is as freely exchanged as memes.

A Token of the Bitcoin Dreamers

There’s a cult—let’s call them the Bitcoin Maxis—who think the Canadian election is the perfect storm. They sound like a group of robot whisperers, hoping that tech‑ignorant leaders will bump us closer to a Bitcoin Standard. They’re chewing soup for a “monetary apocalypse,” calling themselves Accelerationists. They think faster collapse of fiat is the neat trick.

And Me…

I’m not on that fast‑track bandwagon. I’ve been saying this all the while: It’s more than just acceleration—think of it as a gravity wave in the mind‑space. In physics terms, it’s a derivative order moving up the kinematic spectrum, but in plain talk, it’s the new state of the world where ideas become tools, and tools become ideas.

So buckle up—because the future is already here, and it’s rolling on tops—no state in charge, just a global symphony of brains humming to the beat of freedom.

Tachyosis: The Turbo‑charged Rush of Reality

Ever felt like the universe is keeping up with an imaginary bouncer who’s throwing the party lights up, ramping the music, and then just… zooming? That’s tachyosis for you.

What the heck is tachyosis?

• Fast‑Fast‑Fast: Like a caffeinated hound chasing its tail—each acceleration strumming a little louder.
• It’s a state of compounding acceleration—the speed keeps turning on a turbo that keeps revving.
• When things swing so fast that even our brains scramble to keep up: “Wait, what’s the millisecond? Did that just happen?”

Why the name sounds so sci‑fi

—Tachy- means “fast,” so we’re basically saying “Faster than fast.”

—-osis is a suffix often linked to conditions, like psychosis. That’s no accident—when a society gets caught in the tachyotic swirl, it starts feeling a subtle sort of “mind‑speed” overstimulation.

Its Manifestations

Picture a civilization that cannot tell the difference between signal and noise—everything is just a streak of velocity.

In other words, they’re not just running fast; they’re bleeding speed into every thought and breath.

That Experiential Threshold—The Kinematic Continuum

When tachyosis kicks in, reality itself feels like a loop of accelerating loops—intimidating, exhilarating, and a tad alien. It’s the sweet spot where a universe of pulse, jerk, and jam-packed pops becomes the baseline for our perception.

So next time you feel the world sprinting ahead, remember: you might just be riding the wild roller coaster of tachyosis.

What tachyosis does to society

Is America Head‑to‑Head With Its Own Soap Opera?

We all know the headlines about hyper‑inflation, the next big tech breakthrough, and the fragile social contract. Those are big stories on their own.

But when you tap into Ray Dalio’s playbook, you get a dramatic saga pointing toward a full‑blown civil war. He’d say the nation is following a lane he mapped out himself— money rules are fizzling, politics are tipping, and the world map is being redrawn. According to him, the signs are in the hand, and the future is looking like a bad early‑season football play.

Dalio’s Blueprint – But What’s Missing?

• Monetary Collapse: Think hyper‑inflation on a whole new level.
• Political Disintegration: The government is losing the grip, or so he claims.
• Geopolitical Shake‑up: Nations on the brink of pulling their punches.

The kicker? He’s only checking two of the three gears that are actually grinding in real life. Where’s the tech blip— quantum leaps that can up‑clock entire economies overnight—and the cumulative effect of all these forces colliding at once across the planet?

What History Books Miss

There’s no textbook that captures the moment when all three wildcards—money, politics, and tech—clash, creating a pressure cooker that could spark a global crisis. In other words, it’s a triple‑whammy scenario that’s never been recorded, and the world is already feeling its heat.

So, when you put it all together, the risk of an all‑out showdown isn’t just a single headline—it’s a full‑on, multi‑layered impending disaster. And while Ray Dalio is a respectable voice, it seems he’s been missing a key part of the puzzle.

The Rise of Tribalism

When the Law & Order Café Gets Empty: Welcome to the Tribe Era

Picture this: society’s long‑standing institutions—banks, schools, even the government—start acting like a horror movie set that got abandoned halfway. The world doesn’t just face one hiccup; it’s a constant, chaotic roller coaster. People, seeing the chaos, turn to the next best thing: “tribes.” Think Woke, MAGA, ANCAPS, BLM, Proud Boys, MS‑13, Bitcoin, and Scientology. Yes, we’re now counting the likes of the Mafia as a tribe for a reason.

What Are Tribes, Anyway?

Tribes = tight‑knit squads that defy or ignore the traditional state borders. They’re less about geography and more about shared vibes. Grab an emoji: or —you’ll know where you belong.

• Woke: All about social justice and the fine art of explaining jargon.
• MAGA: A rallying cry that doubles as a reality TV plot twist.
• ANCAPS: Free market, belief in the “math of survival.”
• BLM: Raising voices for equality, one pulse at a time.
• Proud Boys: A brotherhood with shirts that say “bro not bro” on the back.
• MS‑13: It’s a gang, but in the hyper‑dark playlist of tribes.
• Bitcoin: The digital coin that some imagine as the new religion.
• Scientology: Channeling the future into panels and vibes.

Why Nation States Are Almost Out of the Game

Traditionally, if you’re born in a country, that’s your “home.” But these days, states are trying to keep up with tachyosis—the monstrous phenomenon where information spreads faster than a viral meme. While your nation tries to keep its bureaucracy in line, the tribe is already picking up the pace. The tribe’s identity is less where you’re stationed and more what you love and vibe toward.

Nation-state rules don’t keep up with the speed of the digital mass migration, so people hand over allegiance to the tribe that better fits their lifestyle and beliefs.

Polly the Politically Homeless?

If you’ve ever found yourself with none of the standard check‑ins (school, job, council), you’re not alone. A new tribe is sprouting up on Ready.ca—a community for Canadians who feel they’ve left the political boat behind. It’s all “Let’s stay afloat together” vibes with a side of memes.

In Summary:

Society’s breaking down, the world’s churning, and people are pointing their arrows to tribes for belonging. They’re the new “home” that transplants laughter, belief, and slightly questionable hashtag trends across the planet. So the next time you hear someone ping the “country” line in a chat, ask yourself: Are they feeling a better fit with the tribe next door?

Neo-Feudalism & The Vise of Technology

The Great Bifurcation: Are We All About to Become Tech‑Pods?

Picture this: the world’s tech boom is in full throttle, pushing every generation to the edge of their own lifespans. Picture kids under 20—yes, even the teenagers—trapped in a future where a “career” feels more like a myth than a whole-day occupation.

Job‑Free Generation: The New Normal

• Traditional path (school university big‑company job management ladder) is largely automated.
• Most “career” seats are gone. UBI and endless leisure are the buzzwords for the next-gen.
• If you let your little ones spend most of their days in a metaverse‑connected pod, they’ll take up almost zero space in the real world.

So, What About Your Some‑New‑Gen Peers?

They’re not just chasing jobs—they’re chasing survival in a world where assets are the only paycheck that matters. Anyone who doesn’t inherit a significant stash is at risk of permanent price out‑of‑the‑game.

Wealth: Your New Retirement Plan

In a brave new age, living beyond 150–160 years could be routine for those under 60. That’s biotech (and soon nanotech) shit hitting the jackpot. You’ll find yourself with maybe 20–30 years of retirement money, but if you crop up to live into your 90s or 100s, that stretch could feel like a drought.

• Old play book: “Die before your money runs out.”
• New play book: Plan for a century.

The Neo‑Feudal Twist

Imagine your fortune subdividing like medieval fiefdoms—each generation needs a corner of the pie that far outweighs yours. To keep your descendants alive in the real world (not just sipping soy protein under a 15‑minute city thermostat), you might have to fork out more than you think would let yourself retire.

Economic Reality Check

Although tech is squeezing people into clouds and pods, the economic side is a brutal beast. It’s skewed, unequal, and unavoidable—unless a “Tower of Babel 2.0” kinda chaos turns everything up for everyone.

Beyond Money: A Mental Split

Consider the cognitive divide. The underclass may be left with a different species of mental capability—not just #T1 brain chips, but a whole class of thinking ways that’ll steer the future.

How the Bitcoin Capitalist Wants to Help

• Create generational wealth that survives until the end of your life.
• Set up a wealth foundation for your grandchildren (and maybe great‑great‑grandchildren).
• Get a one‑month trial today—because staying ahead of your own pipes of wealth matters.
