A Millionaire Mindset in a Clown Economy
A blunt, foul-mouthed survival guide to building a millionaire mindset in a clown economy—while politics melts down on C‑SPAN in the background.
Before We Get Into It
Who am I?
I’m an asshole who loves to laugh, and recently I’ve gotten more into politics for one very simple reason: I love a good shit show.
And this administration? Every single day, every single character in it brings some new form of chaos, confusion, comedy, or straight-up secondhand embarrassment.
Now let me be clear. I’m not here to glorify stupidity, and I’m definitely not here to glamorize it. A lot of this is not funny in the noble, polished, clever sense. It’s pathetic. It’s reckless. It’s the kind of absurd that would be unbelievable if it weren’t happening in real time — on camera, in government buildings, with flags in the background.
But right now, we don’t need Katt Williams. We don’t need Eddie Murphy.
All we have to do is turn on C-SPAN, or whatever political channel you prefer, and just watch. That’s it.
You’re either going to laugh, scratch your head, or sit there staring at the screen asking yourself, This is America?
One more time…
Because the America I grew up in — I was born in 1966 — had problems, yes. It had its mess, yes. But this? This is a whole different level of insane.
This is confusion with a press badge.
This is dysfunction with lighting.
This is madness with microphones.
Who I Am (And Why I’m Here)
As for me, that’s enough biography for now. Maybe I’ll tell you more later. Or maybe I won’t.
What I will tell you is this: I also write The Art of Becoming UnFuckable blog — and this newsletter ties directly into that mindset.
Because part of becoming UnFuckable is learning how to think clearly in ridiculous times.
How to stop letting noise lead.
How to protect your mind, your money, your attention, and your future — while a bunch of unserious people turn public life into performance art.
That’s what Escaping the L’Orange Era is about.
Not physically escaping — although hell, I understand the urge.
I’m talking about mentally and financially escaping the fog.
Learning how to move with more awareness, more strategy, and less reaction.
Learning how to stop drowning in the madness and start asking better questions about how you live, how you earn, and how you build from here.
And if you need a little extra mental stimulation outside this newsletter, go read The Art of Becoming UnFuckable.
If you want a little laughter with your language, check out The Daily Fuckcabulary, where I’m now fusing the F-word into political Fuckism.
The material is becoming delusional, hysterical, and downright diabolical.
Here’s a little taste…
Now Let’s Begin the Shit Show
A sitting president called someone dumb, questioned their intelligence, threw in a little racism for seasoning… and then turned around and called him President Gavin Newscum.
No, my love, I did not spell that wrong.
Not governor.
President.
No correction. No pause. No awareness.
Just kept going.
Let’s have a peep into the Dope Show!
This Wasn’t Politics. This Was Theater.
At some point, the line between leadership and performance disappeared.
Press conferences started sounding like open mic nights.
Policy started sounding like improv.
And headlines started reading like satire you didn’t have to make up.
You could wake up, check the news, and genuinely wonder:
Is this real… or is someone trolling the entire country?
But here’s the part nobody really says out loud:
While everybody was distracted, laughing, arguing, reposting, and reacting… life kept getting more expensive.
The real game has been happening offstage for a while.
While the Dooleys and the wankers were distracted by their king, us intellects were paying attention to this:
Rent is climbing.
Food prices are climbing.
Jobs kept disappearing (UPS debacle).
Entire industries are quietly changing direction.
New ways to make money are hidden because most “gurus” are all regurgitating the same information — just with different packaging.
See, me personally? I don’t follow trends. I don’t follow anybody — which is probably why I don’t have many friends (that’s a different story).
I research trends.
I want to know what’s going to be viable, profitable, and sustainable in 4 to 5 years. That’s what I want to know — not only for myself, but for the couple friends I do have and for my kids.
That’s why I have this.
So when I say escaping, I’m not just talking about the era — I want you to escape listening to the bullshit.
That’s why my Scam Slam on my blog The Art of Becoming UnFuckable is priceless.
But we’ll get into that in another article.
For now, let’s get back to brass tacks.
Most people? They were too busy watching the show to notice the shift.
That’s not an insult. That’s design.
Because confusion is profitable.
Distraction is profitable.
Noise keeps people from asking better questions.
“Just Invest in Yourself” Was Never Enough“
You hear it everywhere:
“Start a business.”
“Make passive income.”
“Build multiple streams.”
Cool. Sounds good.
But nobody really explains:
How do I structure this?
What apps do I need?
Based on what reality?
So people did what they could.
Clicked links.
Bought courses.
Tried things.
Got halfway in… and then got stuck.
Not because they were incapable —
but because the information was either:
Oversimplified.
Oversold.
This Is Where I Come In
Over the past two years, I’ve gained so much knowledge in AI, app creation, and scam research — that’s why you have to read my Scam Slam.
Opportunities are still available, believe it or not. You just have to be awake, aware, and ready to act.
No hesitation.
No perfectionism.
No pussyism or procrastination.
That’s from my book Shōshin: The Beginner’s Mind.
Here’s what my top-flight investigative services found out:
What people are actually exploring right now.
Where attention is quietly shifting.
What kinds of income models are showing up.
What opportunities are being talked about (and which ones are overhyped).
How people are thinking about ownership, flexibility, and control in a world that doesn’t feel stable.
No fluff.
No fake-guru tone.
No pretending everything is easy.
Just clarity.
Because Here’s the Truth
You lived through a period where a man could confidently say anything, contradict himself five minutes later, and keep moving like nothing happened.
And somehow, you were still expected to:
Be stable.
Be strategic.
Be responsible.
Make smart financial decisions.
Plan your future.
In that environment.
That’s not normal.
So if things ever felt confusing, inconsistent, or harder than they should’ve been… that wasn’t just you.
The Shift
The people who started figuring things out didn’t wait for things to “go back to normal.”
They adjusted.
They started looking at:
Different ways to earn.
Different ways to live.
Different ways to build.
Different ways to move.
Not perfectly.
Not all at once.
But intentionally.
That’s the shift this is about.
What “Escaping” Actually Means
This is not about running away from a country.
This is about stepping out of:
Confusion.
Blind decisions.
Reactive thinking.
Following noise instead of patterns.
And stepping into:
Awareness.
Options.
Better timing.
Clearer thinking.
You don’t need to have everything figured out.
You just need to stop doubting and start trusting yourself.
You got this.
