Why Smart People Stay Broke - Erik Weir #6354
Kerry Lutz and Erik Weir explore why intelligence alone doesn't lead to financial success — and why many smart, high-earning people still struggle with money. Erik shares his personal journey, from overcoming a childhood brain injury and stutter to developing a resilience-driven mindset that shaped his views on wealth, discipline, and long-term thinking. They break down core financial principles too many people were never taught, including compound interest, deferred consumption, and the dangers of living beyond your means. Kerry and Erik discuss how poor financial literacy traps families in cycles of debt, why relying on inheritances is a mistake, and how even top earners — including professional athletes — often sabotage their own futures. The conversation also dives into real-world opportunities, from real estate realities in Florida to niche business ideas like high-end housing for pilots. They touch on entrepreneurship, wealth concentration in places like Silicon Valley, and the power of networking with the right people. The episode closes with a clear takeaway: financial freedom isn't about being smarter — it's about avoiding the hidden traps that keep wealth out of reach.

Venezuela Is The Spark. Cuba Is The Prize. China's Hidden Hand

Venezuela Is The Spark. Cuba Is The Prize. China's Hidden Hand
A fast, high-clarity breakdown of the Caribbean chessboard — and why Venezuela, Cuba, and Panama now sit at the center of a global power reset. Kerry Lutz maps out how Venezuela becomes the spark, Cuba the real prize, and Panama the strategic pivot point as China quietly expands influence and the U.S. recalibrates policy ahead of a new commodity supercycle. Kerry walks through how shifting alliances, failing media narratives, and a narrowing geopolitical window are setting up dramatic moves in energy, metals, and trade routes. From Trump's emerging doctrine to emergency oil stabilization, this briefing lays out why crude may calm while gold, silver, and copper prepare for their next surge. You'll hear why Cuba's vulnerability matters more than headlines suggest, how the Panama Canal factors into long-term U.S.–China friction, and where asymmetric opportunities may emerge — including overlooked plays in distressed Cuban debt. A sharp, 6-minute macro briefing for investors watching the next big shift in geopolitics, energy, and hard assets.
