Manage episode 403240999 series 3234502
Tho it ain't official, I think we're in recession. Why? Recessions LAG data. Here's the data:
- China Slowest GDP in 30 years.
- Inverted yield curve.
- Europe in recession.
- Capital spending droppin.
Should you sell your stocks to try and time the market? HELLLL NAW!!! Click and listen as our guest Masroor Ahmed drops some serious street cred on how to be a long term investor.
Comedian Noshod Barrow joined us too - he shared some stories from his cross country running days (RUN *BLACK* FORREST, RUN!!) and his military school days.
As for Masroor, this dude is VP of Finance (aka 'cheddar manager') for Factor 75, a food service company. He basically tells CEOs and CMOs how much they can spend, where they should spend it, and what prices they should charge for all their products. CHEDDA-MANAGER! He breaks down how to make that bread and how to keep that bread.
Finally, Noshod decided to bring up "ego death" as a topic. aka Nirvana, enlightenment, ma'rifa. Know it? We take a stab at it, listen in to find out how to obliterate your s-e-l-f.
Make cheddar and chill,
- Amer
