And guess what?
Nicki Minaj.
What, Jack?
She announced yesterday she's donating up to 300 grand to fund the Trump accounts of her music fans.
Pause the pod.
Her Minaj-esty has dropped her anaconda cash on kids' investing accounts, Jack?
Every day I'm seeing a new, very rich person announce a flashy, targeted donation to something.
This is why Jack and I are flashing our Venmo QR codes on the screen.
So Jack, what's the takeaway for our buddies over in America's financier billionaires?
This is red, white, and blue philanthropy.
That's pro-market and pro-competition.
Besties.
Philanthropy.
Never been hotter among the billionaire class than right now.
Remember the proposed ballot initiative in California to tax billionaires?
That faced hot resistance from the private jet crowd.
But, interestingly, if allowed to do so freely to causes they love, billionaires seem to be giving away more money than ever before.
And Nick and I have a few reasons why.
First, there's been unbelievable wealth creation in the stock market the last few years.
Second, there's consensus that in the AI era, riches must be shared.
