Hello, and welcome to the very first diary entry thing, I think. So today was actually the first day. I actually started coding on the Dev Summit website. And actually, it's been a pretty good day. I took the stuff that we did last week in the supercharged livestream, which was Serma's doing the server-side rendering, because I know I'm going to do a bunch of server-side rendering for the Chrome Dev Summit website. What I need to do is I need to, in the next time I record one of these, I'll show you the designs as well. So you know where I'm headed for now. I just know I've got to get infrastructure set up. So I figured I'll show you a little bit around what I've got going on, which, as it happens, will involve looking at me having written the word index. Apparently, that's as far as I got today. OK, I've done more than that. Let me jump across to the code. So mostly, mostly, mostly, mostly, we have a Travis Yamle file set up. What I've got is this is a bunch of stuff to download and actually host the App Engine thing. I'm also installing Lighthouse, because it's a progressive web app, but it's going to be one. I want to make sure that I'm doing the progressive web appy things. And that's exactly what Lighthouse can do for me. So I have Lighthouse. It then gets a copy of Chrome. It starts that up. And then I basically ask it to run Lighthouse against the Dev Summit site. And then I basically do a bit of a quick validation, which I'll show you, is in here. And all I'm really doing is I open up the JSON file that Lighthouse is spitting out. And then I have a look through it and basically look at the progressive web app bit. And I just add it up and divide it. And if I'm below 0.8, I just fail the build. And because I've got a manifest in there, which I've got a service worker in there, which I'll show you, I should be mostly OK. It'll only be if I break something like that, or if I have a performance regression, maybe. Actually, no, that won't be caught. I should add that in, that it will throw. So that's basically that. And then most of the day has actually gone into the Python stuff. And it apparently wants me to go away. Which mostly is this. Anything that's devsummit slash whatever, I pick up. And in the get, here we are. I basically look at the URL and grab whatever I think it is, which is like, if it's a static file, I basically grab that file directly, which you can see is actually just assumes that it's a straight one-to-one match. And I set those to cache for a year. And then if it's not a static file, so it doesn't begin with slash static, then I basically, at the moment I serve up the single index HTML, which is almost certainly going to change to be per section. But it's fine right now. And I set the HTML to not cache. So while static files are caching for a year, public no cache on the HTML means that the HTML will always be revalidated. And I'll come back to the caching in a moment. And then if it's the service worker, even though I serve it up from static scripts sw.js, I want to appear at slash devsummit so that it can scope and control that whole thing. So that all is working, actually. Let me show you it over here in the network tab. From that, da-da, devsummit is there's the thing. Headers, it's got an e-tag, which I also set further down in the script. Public no cache, which is exactly what I wanted. And then there's a JavaScript file, which has the max age of a year. And that is pretty much what I wanted. And you'll notice, by the way, that there's this big, long hash in the file name. And that is because if it's going to cache it for a year, I need a way to invalidate it. And if it's always called cds.js, then that's not going to work out. Because even if I update the file, it'll still use the old cached one. So I use caching to make sure that if the file contents change, the HTML will get a different path in it. And then it will basically cause the file to be redownloaded, which I do in here. Footer, the footer, you can see me actually doing it. I basically take the path that I'm actually interested and I pass it through a filter called add hash, which is in the Python. Da-da-da, there we are. And that basically reads through the file, updates the hash of a SHA-256 and then substitutes it into the file. So you get like cds.blblbl.js, that blblblbl was the thing. And then on the other side, we basically remove it. So that goes back down to cds.js or whatever the file is that I'm actually interested in. So that means that I've got kind of built-in hashing, which is working just great. So if I change files, they update. Last thing I was going to show you, I do have a couple of static things.  And also the service worker, which is the lightest weight service worker that you can pretty much do, which skips waiting. When it gets activated, it claims all clients and on fetch, it responds with a fetch of whatever you ask for. So it's kind of like a pass-through. And I've done this mostly because I wanted to get the lighthouse score high enough that it would fail to build if there was a regression. So it's kind of like a pass-through. And I discovered a Chrome bug in the process. I should show you the Chrome bug, right? Do you want to see the Chrome bug? All right. Let me show you the Chrome bug. I think it's crbug.com648208. That's a guess. I got the ID right. I only did that. Oh. Basically, there's a siren. There's a siren outside. That's London. Right. I've basically discovered that if you set a page to be offline in DevTools and then you make a request that goes via a service worker, the service worker will still be treated as online even if DevTools is set to offline. I think that's a bit weird. I think either Chrome should say that network throttling affects only the page and not anything like a service worker or, and this would be my preference, I think, we extend the network throttling to include service worker. So even if a service worker makes a request, it would be requested with 3G. Problem is a service worker can service multiple tabs. And so which one does it take? It's, I don't know. It caught me out. I filed a bug. We'll see how that one pans out. So that's pretty much my day. Today, that has been pretty much all I got done. Still pretty good. I mean, I could show you in Lighthouse. We'll say that for another time. I've already taken up enough of your time, haven't I? Hey. Now, you can subscribe and you'll get more of these. And obviously, it's gonna get more exciting as we get into the design. But I've got good start, got good caching, a service worker, got a manifest and I've got a Travis file in there to do all the buildy type stuff with Lighthouse. So we're off to a good start. Day one, winning.


On October 14th, 2014, I watched a video on Apple's YouTube channel. I didn't see the full title, but all I saw was, Mac OS Halloween Edition, out now. The video said it required OS X Mountain Line to install it. I had OS X Mountain Line, which was a good thing, so I clicked the link. It had a button saying, Click here to download Mac OS Halloween Edition. I clicked it, and it took like 18 hours to finish. 18 hours later, the OS finished downloading. I was so excited to use it, so without a second thought, I clicked on the file to install it, and the Apple logo appeared, but colored orange with black cobwebs and blood coming from the bite. After all, this is a Halloween themed OS. Again, 18 hours later, the OS finished installing, and it showed a black screen that had the buttons, start tips and settings. I clicked settings, and the computer started to lag a bit, before I was greeted with the options menu. All it had was to change the brightness and volume. I turned the volume to 18%, and the brightness to 100%. After that, I closed the settings and clicked start. The wallpaper seemed simpler than it was advertised because it didn't look anything like Halloween stuff at all. I opened the app store and began to download some stuff. Everything here looked pretty scary. The app store was autumn themed, and the apps cost $18.99. That didn't matter because I needed to get some stuff at least. The only four stuff I could download were Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird, Steam, and VLC Media Player. I downloaded them all, and then I opened up Firefox. I looked up some stuff, and after that, I opened up Mozilla Thunderbird and created a Thunderbird account. The sounds would change pitches randomly, maybe it was a bug. All I see in Firefox were bookmarks leading to shock sites. And so on, I went to Steam and downloaded a few games which were Counter-Strike Global Offensive, Portal 2, and Left 4 Dead 2, and played them for a bit. Then some glitched text on the screen said, bugs, six times. I opened up VLC and put some YouTube videos on there. There was a video file showing a man with an axe slicing onto a pumpkin. The video cut to static, with a close-up image of the axe by fading in. After he was fully visible, the static sound just kept getting louder and louder until I had to mute my volume.  The entire computer gave me a dark red screen, with white text saying, fatal error with bright red blood dripping down the screen. The sound turned up more than 100%, more static, raw data screeches, and hellish screams started to play. It kept turning up to maximum by itself, and I couldn't turn it down to 0% nor mute it. After that the screen went black, and then back to the desktop. The wallpaper was now changed to a disturbing picture of some joker-like face, and everything became tinted red. I heard whispers coming from the speakers, though I couldn't tell what they were saying. Every time I tried to uninstall the OS, it would pop up error windows saying cryptic messages. I then pressed Ctrl plus Alt plus Delete, but more cryptic error messages started flooding. I then inserted the OS X mountain line disk but got, again, more error messages.  I unplugged the computer, and threw it in the trash. Since the incident, the video and download link were taken down by Apple due to unusual complaints. But I warn you, if you ever find the archive to the link to download this, don't click it and install it, or better yet, use a virtual machine for OS X mountain line to download and install it at your own risk.


A traffic stop Monday in Cass County has led to the arrest of two people who are allegedly involved in the distribution of cocaine. The traffic stop involved 20 year old Shay Michael Terrell Yaklich and 21 year old rather Brandon Charles Curtis during the course of the investigation. Agents made multiple controlled purchases from Terrell Yaklich and Curtis which resulted in the seizure of approximately 73 grams of suspected cocaine. Agents executed three separate search warrants then in Beltrami County during a follow up interview and search. Agents located an additional 44 grams of cocaine that was part of the cocaine distribution involving Terrell Yaklich and Curtis. Both were detained in charges were filed for first degree sale of a controlled substance in Cass County.

We agree to unite, work together to deliver success in 2021. Politics in a constitutional democracy play an important role because political parties produce leadership as per our constitution. So it means this party, our alliance partners, through our constitutional democratic provisions, we worked hard to produce a leadership and you deployed us in government, but we never forget who we are without the UPND who have never been in government, we know that. So we are just your secondies in government, we will work towards your dictates, what you tell us, what we agree through our manifesto is what we deliver, what we work on. But let me return to importance of today, today. This party has a history, worked a long, lonely sometimes, another time is brutal process. I want to say this party is the most demonized, its members are most brutalized, most killed, most independence. It is true, members don't laugh because the facts are there. But you worked this channel, you worked this channel, our first president, and I'll talk about it just a little bit. The leaderships there, many of us played different roles, but it was for the same purpose as it is today. Many of you played different roles, but for the same purpose. We went ahead and avoided the temptation of going into street fights in order to defend ourselves. We didn't walk because they wanted us to walk into the pig walk, into the maddy space we resisted. We said no, we will continue working. Even when we felt our elections were taken away clearly, we resisted the temptation to go in the streets to work war. If we did that, we would have never formed the government. Going through the footage, media again as vice president said, wonder what you've done. Showing the pictorial view of where we're coming from came to be where we are. Please continue doing that good work, media. His story, the people are telling you, Mwilanda Fyakale, Fyakwale Chita, Aguwe Mbenifi. No magrifu alama shani, his story. What are we going to do as Fyakale Piliya, Aguwe Mbenifi? They want us to forget that the short dead don't respond. Mappen is too old, crazy matter. Just have found that. Too many. Some of our people live with bullets in their bodies. We've never put a bullet in anyone's bodies, UP, since we took office.  We've come a long way. That's the message. We've come a long way. That's the message. We've come a long way. That's the message. We've come a long way. That's the message. That's the message. We've come a long way. And simply say, one Zambia, that we're coming from very far. The Lord has banned, because of Mappen's chivoli. All of this were 22 years old, 23, 24 year old. We decided, in fact before we took over, what's on Rumba is here, Trezy Regeno, where is he, the Rumba man, Kimavanga, Mavanga mani Bahrumba. I said to that man in the deepest of the struggles as we were waiting hard to raise pennies to support the party. We must institutionalize this party. We must make this party outlive us so we can make men and women, men like him, like Ambe, to say I left people behind.  By institutionalizing this party, making it outlast him and outlast a fellow like myself. And we said amongst the pillars of that institutionalization is to have premises in all the provinces of Zambia, starting with the headquarters here. And here we are today officially opening this secretariat, raising money from members, contributors, those who put a contribution for one town, floor town here and inside. We thank them for that work. Those who just agreed with the idea of institutionalizing this party, we thank them too, because members with the resistance say no, no, no, we don't want to do that. You carry members on a vision that they agree with you. Otherwise, so today I am a very happy colleague of yours. I know the vice president is happy. I know the cabinet colleagues are happy. I know the NMC is happy. I know members are happy that we are officially opening this Anderson, Kambela, Mazoka house. We need to give ourselves a good hand. So we will officially open this building. I say to all secretary general, let's not overdo it. Let's do it in a normal way. We don't want to be misunderstood. We work hard. It's not a question about it. We work hard. Not because we are in government only. We work hard. But we must also be moderate. So we are realistic and are contextual, they say to the country. So I'm very happy today. We are all happy today that we are opening this building. And as SG said, Kasama, Mansa, Kokovet, Chipata in Eastern province, Western province, Mungusu, Westin, Choma in Southern province, Central province, Kawe. All this, I want to send a message of difference with my secretary general. He said by December, I didn't tell him we have different plans. By April of this year, a few months from now, all the provincial offices will be in place. We must work with time. Then we can do other things, instead of working on the same thing. So SG, by end of April, we will have the buildings in all the ten provinces. We may continue improving them. We may continue putting water, but they will be there. And we will be working from these buildings in all the ten provinces on this land. Two years, five months in office, getting to six months, we have settled down. Now we want to crank the party and crank it heavy. Those who say things they say in Mansa Bongu, we are meeting in the field. Politics is not about what you feel and what you say, it's what you deliver on the ground. That's politics. It's easy to say things. Politics. They are my insults there. No, I want to say to colleagues in the opposition, we have given a lot of democratic space, which we didn't have ourselves. We never had a democratic space. The press briefing there, we knew that Tia Gastu was coming. We knew. And today colleagues say there's a shrinking democratic space. It was never there. We are creating it now. Isn't it? I couldn't use the airspace. You learned the tipata, you were not allowed to go out of the airport. You know the image, all of you. One time at the trip Secheke, I was going to Senanga as well to Siyoma. In the middle of the flight my pilot was told to drop me because the flying space was taken away from me. You can say there's no democratic space. You have the space. There's a violation today. You won't hear blood there. You won't hear people have been beaten. Sometimes you don't even hear this violation because no one is being beaten. No one is being stopped from campaigning. Just come and campaign. To move from 0.3% of the national votes to 50% plus 1, take one. Kubomba. So you are welcome in this country. But for us I'm saying we will deepen and we have started deepening the growth of our patch. With these secretariats, other facilitations that are coming, we didn't want to announce them today because we may be misunderstood but we have agreed how to proceed. We are ready. We are ready even for any ally who meet on the ground. They are not fools. They understand that there is a difference. The first difference is no. Is that they are free now? Freedom. Colonialism was fought for first and foremost one thing only. For freedom. Zambians know that. Today someone can sit here and wear a pf gari amongst us. No one will take me. So what are we talking about here? More than the fishing car. Not over fee. We will not answer that noise. Our job is to work for the 20 million Zambians. They are the ones who judge us after the first five years. Only the first five years. We have to encourage you. We are not foolish. And what's going on? We know what's going on but we must keep our eyes on the ball. Let's not be driven into the pig hole. Unit is important. So these facilitations vice-president we have talked are to enable our party to deepen its roots. Deep. Deep. Kuyaanshawa. Deep is not for admiration. It's particularly the beautiful name which we are all proud of. I'm very proud that Kambela's name is standing here, sitting here. I'm very proud. Thank you Mrs. Mazoba for allowing us to do that. Thank you. We'll use Kambela's name here to our room which we have. Thank you very much. So these are meant to use to caupanize the past. Ku 7-0-1-2. Chipanichi in the past. Mutinyanjama rutsachan. Meze. Inbemba. Mishila. Meze, Mishila, Mianda. That's why we want to caupanize ourselves through these structures. Five, six messages going forward. One, our agenda is to basically if you like we all go from here through this building. Car in this heritage. Number two is to recruit. We must continue growing. The best defense is to attack, is to grow, is to get members. So we welcome Father Maria. We welcome all our colleagues at the car. Recruitment number two, National Registration Cards. That's the way we were not allowed to register our voters. They were being manipulated. Now you have the freedom. Register your family members. Starts in your family.  There's continuous voter registration now. Get a voter card. Number two, clear. One is structures. Two recruitment. Three, NRCs. Four, voter cards. I didn't touch on that. Messaging. Mulezanda, Avantua UP and Itamulanda. On social media, you follow the PFA agenda. Come off the PFA agenda. Have your own. You see the PFA postings. Let it die there. Put your own messaging there. What are the messages? Free education. We promise free education. We have delivered. I will just once to perform her function. She's the leader of government business in parliament. Vice president, you may proceed. Thank you very much. That's where we deployed her parliament. So she's going to do that. She talked messaging. Free education. We promised free education. In 1997. We continued with that agenda. Today, we promised that councils will be paid their salaries. Today, you can tick. We've done it. We promised equalization. You can tick. It's done.  Today, that retirees will be paid. Today, there's no retirees sleeping after the news. 20 years back, they've been paid. Tick. We promised that we'll recruit workers, teachers they've been employed. Tick. We say it. Milagawesis which the PM took away from students will pay Milagawesis. We say it. Police, soldiers, correctional services, national service we will employ. Tick. We say that. You belong to a beautiful party but sometimes you forget because I see what you post in social media.  You have a rich heritage. Don't be duped by to not do that. You have a beautiful organization called UBND. Be proud of it. Be proud of it. We say that we will give one million dollar equivalent of constituent development fund. Past our own target from 1.6 million quatcha per constituent per year now we are giving each constituent per year across the country, no segregation, 30.6 million quatcha. Tick that one. We say all those kids that cannot go to invest, that cannot go to college in skills training. Tick. We are giving them that now. We say contracts in CDF will be given to local contractors in the constituent. Tick that box. Zambia, I can go on and on. I even forget the list is too long. Na bafiwa, bafu main mo. We want any election. We are double-jitagote. He said out of maybe list of 10 things, scale of 10, we have already delivered 7 in 2.5 years. We still have another 2.5 years employing all the volunteers. Udamangiswa ma makeji. Tosto bafu mainwewa. Kulima tiawos. Let's use this secretariat to mobilize provincial offices to mobilize. Let's use the equipment that we are getting from today which we don't want to talk about to mobilize within ourselves. Not to kupoka ndala maza we do market. What our friends were doing. When we say no catalysis we didn't say you cannot trade in a market. All European members and anyone else is free to trade in a market. You are free to trade in a market. You are free to work at a bus stop. But we want a widow to also trade in a market without kupoka bitu. Is that not good? Is that not good? One Zambia. One Nation. I was elected to maintain this country as one country. So I was elected to do. So the constitution wants me to do. I will not do anything else. Now let's tell the people what we've done. Let's explain to people. Every time at the press conference after what the message is that president has explained why are party officials, ministers, provincial ministers, mayors, counselors, why are they not explaining? So what we are going to do we are going to summarize all these things we've done very simple and then circulate that. Circulate that. Zambia, we are not here to accuse anyone. Some people can't put these things together easily. So we will summarize and there will be a pilot in all our local languages that we say we will do this, we've done it. Yes, we are still working on certain things. We are still working on the debt restructuring.  But many of us are in Bukonguwa. Two of us are in Bukonguwa. Three of us are in Bukonguwa. We have made a lot of progress. HHS has said no, he is an imperialist church. What do you mean? We are not an imperialist church of anyone. We are an institution of the people of Zambia. That's all. I wait for the people of Zambia. That's all. But if you call me an imperialist church why did you go to borrow money from imperialists? It's about men. Why did they end up moving God? I wish I could say in another language. Why amu te kwa mei? Where the whole country draws water from you go and pee in there. In the only source of water you go and pee in it. Forgive my language. Then you pee in that HHS counter and try to clean that well so that the water can be clean. Then you come back and pee more in that well. No, we will not agree. What else are we going to do? Every month once we've done our structures the president will give uniform. All the structures from national management province, district constituents word, all officials each one the president will give HHS. My message. My message is that that uniform will be wearing it every month. A particular day every month will be chosen as a UPND community day. When this word is cleaning at that cleaning. That drainage. Very close to where we live. So we need organization. Provisional chair. Team. Provisional chair. We need organization. District commissioners. More of you are deployees of the UPND. More of you are deployees of the UPND. The first stop will be to go and help clean, clean, clean. Go to see us working and we exchange information near news in the local radio stations. At that point the government will come from this side the party from this side will be meeting in the metro. Some of you say no, HHS abandon the parts. Shippan. You open nice thing. H7 is a metro.

Why me? Why me? I must justify being the president. I must end it. I must work hard. I must deliver for the people of UPND and Ozamia. I remind myself I tell my colleagues in cabinet you are lucky people to be ministers vice president you are lucky to be vice president you are very lucky you are lucky to be member parliament you are lucky to be cancer to be DC our duty is to remind ourselves that we owe it to the people in our party we owe it to the people of Ozamia.

Children are sitting on the floor. Ahhhh! We are doing in school now. Happy problem to have that kids now are many. What have we done in response? Buying desks.

Okay. All right, so let's go ahead and get started All right, here we go. All right number one Why are stocks a good investment? Well, why do you think if stocks are a good investment? You should write that down Why do I think stocks are a good investment and do I think stocks are a good investment? Well, here's what I say Number one. Here's what I would say And listen, I'm not an expert. I'm not Kathy. I'm not Kathy Woods, brother obviously skin tone Don't have a background in economics or you know investing Didn't work for a hedge fund. Just a brother just Eager eager to learn about the market and wanting to make things better for my family my friends my church And everybody that I meet. Okay, so that's me But I will say this Why are stocks a good investment? You want to ask yourself that as a new investor? Why do I want to why do I want to invest in the stock market? You want to ask yourself that why do you want to invest invest in stock market? Is it just to make a quick buck? Is it because you're you're Financially you're frustrated. You're like I don't have any money and I and the stock market I hear that you can make money in a stock market for I'm gonna get in it Yeah That might work temporarily But ultimately you want to sit down and say, you know what? The reason why I want to get into the stock market is this and this and this and this I'm gonna tell you my vision for the stock market. One of the reasons is to become more financially independent That's one of my reasons. That's the second reason is for my son. I'm when I leave this earth When I leave this earth one day, I Want to know two things that I've done everything that God has asked me to do and that I've left enough for my son and my wife That's it for me And that I've been a blessing to my church and the body of Christ Okay, and then the third the third thing is is I've helped as many people as possible as far as becoming more financially literate and That they would be dedicated Okay dedicated to financial literacy All right, so that's that's my goals. Okay, this is why this channel exists. All right So but the first thing I would say about the stock market to is this is that you become an owner When you invest in the stock market when you invest in a company you becoming owner of that company So if you say hey, I want to put money in Microsoft I want to put the money in Microsoft I want to take some money and buy some stock in Microsoft. You become an owner of the company You become a shareholder There's no one here in Particularly in the United States that have come to a place of wealth and riches without owning something I'm not saying Chase riches. I'm what I'm saying is if You want to become more financial that financially independent You want to own some things a Company real estate stocks and some people might say Bitcoin Crypto, so We'll leave that for another time. All right, the second reason I would say is this In the last hundred years, there is no entity investment entity that has gained on a consistent basis On a consistent basis like the stock market seven to ten percent and some years much more than that Some years less, you know, you have your crashes and your dips your corrections But for the most part It's gained seven to ten percent You can't get that out of your savings account Some of you got a savings account. You're putting money in that savings account You got money going automatically from your paycheck into your savings account and yet your savings account The only money that you've gained is the money you put in there Because the yield is so so small I'm gonna give you a hack a in a suggestion Of what you can do Why not take that money from a savings account and put it in in an index Fund and we'll talk about that. That's in the second or the third video the difference between a sec index fund The index fund versus individual stocks the pros and accounts. All right But you're wasting your money because here's let me tell you something But I didn't mean to get off all into this but I feel like I need to share this with you Right now the CPI consumer price index look it up in our government our government web website and Inflation right now It's about four percent. I know they're telling us two percent three percent Listen, it's more like five percent and Headed towards six to seven percent It is not transitory in other words.  Okay, we'll get some depreciation. All right, but not now Inflation's gonna be here first. You'll have to unlock your device Sorry, that was my phone. Sorry.  You're actually losing money. Your dollar is it's devaluing So that's why you want to put it in something that's exceeding inflation So if I make ten percent this year on the stock market, but the inflation was five percent That means at least I made five percent But if you're in a savings account You're in a savings account and there's no yield. You're not getting any percentage. It's no gains and the inflation is five percent Guess what you're in the loss That's why sometimes it feels like there's holes in your pocket as soon as you get money. It's gone It's like where did my money go? Where did my paycheck go? inflation buddy Sister my brother my sister All right So a wise thing to do in 2022 say tell yourself look I'm gonna get away from these savings accounts Now if you don't trust and you don't know enough about investing then don't do it Leave your money in the savings accounts. At least it's there. All right, at least it's there And you can at least have a place where you're storing But take at least some of it fifty seventy percent and put it in something where it's gaining and it's Appreciating okay, even if you do bonds although bonds are like what two percent three percent yield You're just gonna break even With inflation the way it is you still had a loss one to two percent It's the stock market or real estate gang. It's the stock market or real estate. All right Okay What is the stock market the stock market basically here is a simple simple simple simple answer about simple answer for that That this is for a new person. They don't know anything about it. What is the stock market?  I have cash I want I want to buy this this this and this you give me that I give you cash That's what happens in the stock market There is an exchange. That's why it's called the stock exchange. You're exchanging stock for money for currency Does that make sense? Now I want to say this real quickly about the stock market Because everybody's like what is the exchange whether exchanges the stock markets You have the Dow Dow Jones industrial average you have Nasdaq and you have S&P 500 is also the Russell 2000 there are other markets as well There is small cap mid caps all that but we're just gonna do the basic four that you're gonna hear more about hear a lot about the Dow Nasdaq S&P 500 Russell 2000 now the Dow consists of 30 stocks all the Dow Jones is is an average The Dow consists of several industries several sectors So you might get tech Hospitality Bio tech you get several different types of businesses and it's 30 companies and it's an average It's basically saying this is a sample What these 30 companies are doing is a sample of what all the market is doing and then you have the S&P 500 It consists of 500 of the top companies Again, it's a sample. It's an average and then you have Nasdaq Nasdaq uses basically tech It's basically tech. That's where you got you know, you got you you got your Facebook Google Apple Microsoft it's the tech mostly tech and biotech stocks. Okay and it consists of Nasdaq hundreds about a hundred stuff hundred companies Okay, and basically all these are is it's a measure. It's an average of what the entire market is doing Okay, all right, and so So when you purchase a stock when you buy a stock Um You usually are gonna buy from one of those exchanges Something from the Dow for example Tesla Tesla's in the Nasdaq So Tesla when I purchase a stock for shares from Tesla I'm tell you I'm Tesla is in the Nasdaq. It's part of the Nasdaq exchange. All right S&P 500 you get you'll see McDonald's. Well, let's say the the 30 Dow 30 30 companies leave up McDonald's is in there into it IBM Boeing, you know companies like that industrials are in there as well. Okay, so you kind of got that All right, so now in the first thing that you want to do and I want to lay this out really quickly is that If you want to invest in the stock market, you can't just go You are what's called a retail investor Now there's an institutional investor and there's a retail investor the institutional investor is someone like a hedge fund management company Somebody like Kathy would that's a good name to remember. She's great. She's an amazing since she's done. Oh Man, she's done so many amazing things. She's having a tough year, but watch me. She's you work. We haven't heard the last of her trust me So a hedge fund or something like that, that's an institutional investors Wall Street the big boys they call them the suits. You'll get that term sometimes suits and I'm gonna do a video on terms just Lango every day Lango that you're here in the stock market And then there's us the common day every day people that are investing. We're called We're they call us a jail.  These are discount brokerage. Okay? Now You want to open up an account? I'm not telling you how much money to put in $50 hundred dollars thousand dollars two thousand One thing that I usually will tell people if you don't I don't have any money to invest in the stock market Well, this is 2022. We're talking about right well taxes You get your federal tax refund fund.  I'm gonna try it this year and I'm gonna take $500 on my thousand dollars unless of course you have a lot of debt If you have debt, take care of your debt first. I should have probably put that up there at the beginning Before you start investing Invest in your debt first take care of all your debts if you owe money credit card debt get rid of it Now you can do both But you should spend more time clearing up debt first and Then invest start investing your money Because here's what will happen if you if you if you don't take care of your debt You start investing at one point you're gonna have to take what you're investing and put it towards your debt Otherwise your credit score is gonna be affected. What if you you know you're trying to get a home or something like that? Take care of your debt. All right, that's the first thing 2022 crushed debt Crush it go after it go after it hard and then Start focusing your money in on the market. So anyway, open up an account put some money up And to start the brokerage account and in good you're good And i'm not telling you how much to put in again. That's what i've already we already went over that. All right, okay Last but not least IPO I think i went over number three and four. What is the stock? What is the share? It's it's stock and a share pretty much interchangeable you Share is you you're getting a share. You're sharing with other investors As you guys pull in your money to buy ownership in a company So you got a share Just like if you had a pizza and all the kids are there and then you cut up the pizza and you and you share the pizza By giving a slice the slice is the stock All right, okay, so we went over that number number five and we'll end with this. What is an IPO? IPO simply put is initial public offering Usually the the big banks Institutional banks are the ones that do IPOs discount broker terms do not do IPOs Okay, and so a company will say you know what we're trying to expand we need we need more money We need to raise money for the company. We're doing well. We're growing But we want to do even better. We want to expand or we got a new product and we need more money. We need research Rnds could jump in off. So what they'll do is say, okay, let's go from private to public And that's all an initial public offering is A company enters the market And become public so that other people Retail investors like me and you can go in and invest in that company and say We want to become an owner part owner of that company because we believe in it We think it's going to be great and it's going to do well and we see a great future and they've got a wonderful management team All right That's an IPO The reason why I wanted to add that on there is because many new investors when they first come into the market They hear about oh my god. You got did you hear this? of Joe and Joe is coming about to open up Joe and Joe is about to get into the market They're about to do their IPO. Oh my god. Everybody's gonna want that everybody's gonna get it. It's gonna go up to the moon It's gonna go to and so you end up going Jumping in trying to get that and here's when people make a lot a big mistake with IPOs They'll go in with a market order I'll do a video on market versus limit limit orders But a market order is how you purchase your stocks So in your brokerage account, it'll say okay, you want to buy shares in this company and it'll tell you it'll say Would you like to do a market order market order is you're at the mercy of the market? So basically Whatever you you're saying whatever I can get it at Whatever I can get it at and so well You can get it at a cheaper price or you can go high It's whenever because you got to remember somebody selling it to you You're trying to buy it somebody selling it Well, it's whenever someone whenever the whenever it's gonna be sold that can be it can go up up up and up and up And you can end up getting it for a much higher price than you expected And that's what happens a lot of times with IPOs People think oh, yeah, I'm gonna get in and wow it's gonna go to the moon And usually there's an initial sell-off because those init those institutional I'm gonna be nice The institution the institutional investors they start grabbing up all the shares so it goes it goes up, right? And you think yeah, I'm gonna put in as a market order But it's not letting you in and then eventually boom somebody sells it to you But then the market starts going down The same day is the IPO It was 20 30% You were thinking you were gonna try to get in at $30 But it went up it went up to 60 and then your market order your market order clicked And you were able to buy it at 60. You're like, well, wait a minute. I didn't want it at 60 But you put it in as a market order if you had put it in as a limit order now Well, let me see what happens you put in as a limit order saying this is my limit I am unwilling to buy this shares of stock above this price 30 bucks And if it does if it doesn't hit this marker below, I don't want it So it will it will not it will not trigger a buy That's how you can protect yourself in an IPO You use like I will not buy it until it comes down here Because normally you're not going to get it at the beginning As a retail investor Keep that in mind And so you put it in as a limit order limit order. Okay. I want to buy it at $30 even So it goes up to 60 And all the market buyers that they're getting it they're getting it that are like, oh, no And then it drops and as soon as it hits 30 Now I could go beyond 30 below 30 But at least You got it around the price that you wanted it And eventually if it's a good company and it's a good it's doing a great job. It's gonna go back up Okay, so I just wanted to tell you that isn't for concerning IPOs Anyway, that's gonna be my first five and we'll I know I went a little bit long you guys Hanging there with me the the next video will not be this long. I assure you and I want to welcome you to thank you and say bless you. Bless you. Bless you. You're gonna have a great 2022. All right Let's do it. Let's do it investors. That's right to the moon See you later


So there's a problem where I just remember things and don't I mean I tend to with someone like especially when I take a test I don't remember what I Remember what I read. So that's the problem. That's holding me back So I hope that this group that I will be and will help me, you know Challenge that and help me discover what I need to know. Let me thank you first of all Your honesty is so welcome and is great. That's another thing that I do in every co-coaching The more we we welcome and honor the more revealing somebody is the better because you can't help somebody who's pulling Their punches and not saying their truth. So her saying that she's developmentally disabled Create we now can we can address that because we know it's on the table There are different jobs that make different demands for example on memory I like to focus on abilities not disabilities So tell me what you do if there was a God or a goddess and the goddess were looking down on you What would the God or goddess say you do well? Well, what I do well is Right now when I'm doing is part-time caregiving so I just do household work and then also I talk to the person who is Disabled and so we have a good relationship. So most of the times I do have people skills, but At the same time I also do you know do stuff with my hands So with the goddess say that you'd be wiser in your next job to be working with People with disabilities to be doing clerical in a government office What would the wise woman within you the goddess say you should be focusing on as a job target? Working with people with disability just like myself, but minds is it with memory not with right with physical great And so because the our government has huge numbers of programs for people who are homebound who are developmentally to say who live or you know developmentally disabled who are Recovering addicts all kinds of things Should your effort to get a government job where you can get government job gives you benefits and vacation and holidays instead of you know Low-level to $15 an hour Work should you be focusing your effort on finding the government agencies that have Those provide those kind of services and get a job for them It would be very difficult to do that, but nonprofit Agencies have that too great. So Should that should that be your goal when you come out of here today To ask a librarian or come up with you know me so the aid the local agencies near relatively near where you live Who hire such people who work as? Companions and in the kind of work you do well rather than one that takes a toll on your reading or your memory and See if you can get a good job that way Okay. Yes. So thank you very much. So what I did nothing more elaborate Then what I'm asking you to do in co-coaching. Is that right? So we just did a demo. I asked her questions I didn't care if she's got any kind of a developmental delay or whatever you want to call it. I empowered her Trust the goddess within you. That's a phrase. He was all the time Trust the wise woman within you What would you do she knows again? She's got that filter in her brain. What's realistic and not and she was Clear enough say nah, I don't think the government thing is gonna work So given that she's had a bunch of government jobs, I guess maybe she's persona non grata there fine She knew that I didn't know that She then moved me into saying nonprofit great I Demonstrated co-coaching another question of any sort Either about the process or even your individual situation whatever
