Biden wants to ban ripoff “financial advisors”
I'll be at the Studio City branch of the LA Public Library on Monday, November 13 at 1830hPT to launch my new novel, The Lost Cause. There'll be a reading, a talk, a surprise guest (!!) and a signing, with books on sale. Tell your friends! Come on down!
Once, American workers had "defined benefits pensions," where their employers promised to pay them a certain amount every year from their retirement to their death. Jimmy Carter swapped that out for 401(k)s, "market" pensions where you have to guess which stocks will be valuable or starve in your old age:
https://pluralistic.net/2020/07/25/derechos-humanos/#are-there-no-poorhouses
The initial 401(k) rollout had all kinds of pot-sweeteners that made them seem like a good deal, like heavy employer matching that doubled or even tripled the value of every dollar you put into the market for your retirement. But over the years, as Reaganomics took hold and workers' power ebbed away, all these goodies were clawed back. In the end, the market-based pension makes you the sucker at the poker table, flushing your savings into a rigged casino that is firmly tilted in favor of finance barons and other eminently guillotineable plutocrats.
Neoliberalism is many things, but most of all it is a cult of individualism. The fact that three generations of workers are nows facing down retirement without pensions that will provide them with secure housing and food – let alone money to see the odd movie, buy birthday gifts for their grandkids, or enjoy a meal out now and then – is framed as millions of individual failures, not a systemic one.
In other words, if you are facing food insecurity and homelessness after a lifetime of hard work, it's because you saved wrong. Perhaps you didn't save enough (through a 40-year run of wage stagnation and skyrocketing housing, health and education costs). Or perhaps you saved wrong, making the wrong bets on the stock market. If you can't afford to run your air conditioner during a heat dome, that's on you: you should have been better at stocks.
Apologists for this system will say that you don't have to be good at stocks – you just have to pay an Independent Financial Advisor to pick the stocks for you and you'll be fine. But IFAs don't work for free! What if you can't afford one?
Enter "predatory inclusion" – the practice of offering scammy, overpriced and substandard products to poor people and declaring it to be a good deed, because otherwise, those poor people would have to do without. The crypto bubble relied heavily on this: think of Spike Lee and others shilling for pump-and-dump scams as a way of "building Black wealth":
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/07/business/media/cryptocurrency-seeks-the-spotlight-with-spike-lees-help.html
More recently, Intuit and other scammy tax-prep services have argued against the IRS's plan to offer free tax preparation as bad for Black and brown people, because it will deny them the chance to be deceived and ripped off with TurboTax:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/09/27/predatory-inclusion/#equal-opportunity-scammers
Back in 2018, Trump won the predatory inclusion Olympics, when his Department of Labor let the Fifth Circuit abolish the "Fiduciary Rule" for Independent Financial Advisors:
https://www.investopedia.com/updates/dol-fiduciary-rule/
What was the Fiduciary Rule? It said that your IFN had to put your interests ahead of their own. Like, if there were two different funds you could bet on, and one would pay your IFN a big commission, while the other would be a better bet for you, the IFN couldn't put your retirement savings into the fund that offered them a bribe.
When Trump killed the Fiduciary Rule, he proclaimed it a victory for poor people, especially Black and brown people. After all, if IFNs weren't allowed to accept bribes for giving you bad financial advice, then they would have to make up the difference by charging you for good advice. If you couldn't afford that advice, well, you'd have to make bad retirement investments on your own, without the benefit of their sleazy self-dealing.
The Biden Administration wants to change that. Biden's Acting Labor Secretary is Julie Su, and she's very good at her job. Last spring, she forced west coast dockworkers' bosses to cough up the contract they'd stalled on for a year, with 8-10% raises for every worker, owed retroactively:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/06/16/that-boy-aint-right/#dinos-rinos-and-dunnos
Su has proposed a way to reinstate the Fiduciary Rule, as part of the Biden Administration's war on junk fees, estimating that this will increase retirees' net savings by 20%:
https://prospect.org/labor/2023-11-07-julie-su-labor-retirement-savers/
The new rule will force advisors who cheat their clients to pay restitution, and will require them to deliver all their advice in writing so that this cheating can be detected and punished.
The industry is furious, of course. They claim that "The Market (TM)" will solve this: if you get bad retirement savings advice and end up homeless and starving, then you will choose a different advisor in your next life, after you are reincarnated (I guess?).
And of course, they're also claiming that forcing IFNs to stop cheating their clients will deny poor people access to expert (bad) advice. As the Financial Services Institute's Dale Brown says, this will have a "negative impact on Main Street Americans’ access to financial advice":
https://www.fa-mag.com/news/legal-challenge-predicted-for-new-dol-fiduciary-proposal-75257.html
Here's that rule – read it for yourself, then submit a comment expressing your views on it. The government wants to hear from you, and administrative law requires them to act on the comments they receive:
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/11/03/2023-23782/proposed-amendment-to-prohibited-transaction-exemptions-75-1-77-4-80-83-83-1-and-86-128
Su is part of a wave of progressive, technically skilled regulators in the Biden administration that resulted from a horse-trading exercise called the Unity Task Force, which divvied up access to top appointments among the progressive wing and the finance wing of the Democratic Party. The progressive appointments are nothing short of incredible – the most competent and principled agency leaders America has seen in half a century:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/23/getting-stuff-done/#praxis
But then there's the finance wing's appointments, like Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley, who ruled against Lina Khan's attempt to block the rotten Microsoft/Activision merger (don't worry, Khan's appealing):
https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/14/making-good-trouble/#the-peoples-champion
Perhaps the worst, though, is Biden's Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo, a private equity ghoul who did a stint for the notorious wreckers Bain Capital before founding her own firm. Raimondo has stuffed her department full of Goldman Sachs alums, and has sidelined labor and civil society groups as she sets out to administer everything from the CHIPS Act to regulating ChatGPT.
As Henry Burke writes for the Revolving Door Project and The American Prospect, Raimondo's history as a corporate raider, her deference to the finance sector, and she and her husband's conflicts of interest from their massive stakes in companies she's regulating all serve to undermine Biden's agenda:
https://prospect.org/economy/2023-11-08-commerce-secretary-gina-raimondo-undercutting-bidenomics/
When the administration inevitably complains that its popular economic programs aren’t breaking through the media coverage, they’ll have no one to blame but themselves.
The Unity Task Force gave us generationally important policymakers, but ultimately, it's a classic "pizzaburger." If half your family wants pizza, and the other half wants burgers, and you serve them something halfway in between that makes none of them happy, you haven't made a wise compromise – you've just made an inedible mess:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/06/17/pizzaburgers/
If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this post to read or share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog:

Donald Trump has announced the creation of a new position in his future administration — that of “crypto czar“ — to be filled by former PayPal COO David Sacks. But Sacks is not the only prominent businessperson set to take on a governing role following Trump’s inauguration. The U.S. president-elect has promised the business community sweeping tax cuts and a significant rollback of government regulations. This has sparked concerns that the wealthiest Americans could exploit the Republican monopoly on power to amass even greater wealth. Existing legislative restrictions prohibit individuals from simultaneously holding government positions and working in private business. However, these restrictions are easily bypassed. For example, business leaders can be appointed as unpaid advisors, allowing them to influence policy without technically violating any rules. This arrangement could lead to one of the most significant conflicts of interest in modern U.S. history.

I’ve gone through my finances and because I’ve slipped into being a corporate girly somehow, I now have quite a bit of money? I earn very well, I don’t spend much (the corporate girly lifestyle is not for me, my mum cuts my hair) and buying this apartment that I live in was probably the best financial decision I’ll ever make (mostly, this was luck).
I’m decent about investing my money and I have a personal finance spreadsheet that I update monthly. I just made some graphs in my spreadsheet and I have too much company stock for my comfort level. I don’t want to sell it because 1) it’s not doing super well, 2) I wouldn’t know what to do with it instead, 3) it needs to be taxed in the US and Germany and I only half-understand capital gains tax.
Maybe I’ll buy an apartment in Vienna in a year or two, or I’ll talk to a financial advisor who hopefully doesn’t tell me to just do crypto, or maybe I’ll do nothing. Either way, as someone who’s often have a lot of unreasonable anxiety about money, it’s nice to know that I’ll be fine.

Masterworks: What Is It?
With an interest in art and a desire to further diversify our financial portfolio, my wife and I looked into Masterworks. With banks failing, crypto teetering and conventional investments underperforming, we wanted to have a small piece of a different pie. There aren’t good analytics, like with stock purchases or business ventures, but one thing seems clear, the price of art continues to climb.
Whether its due to tax havens, conspicuous consumption, or simply valuing original art, the art world has become more and more attractive to us. That being said, we are not people who can drop large sums of money on a Rembrandt and hang it on our wall. However, we can buy a fraction of a painting that is up for auction and that’s precisely what Masterworks provides.
Masterworks is a platform that allows investors to buy and sell shares of high-end artwork, with the goal of capturing the potential financial returns of investing in the art market. The idea behind Masterworks is to make investing in art more accessible to a wider range of investors, who may not have the financial means or expertise to purchase and manage a collection of fine art.
Investing in masterworks can be an attractive option for investors seeking to diversify their portfolio and potentially achieve high returns. Historically, fine art has been a valuable asset class, with prices for the most sought-after works often reaching into the millions or even billions of dollars. Investing in masterworks can offer the potential for capital appreciation, as well as the added benefit of owning a tangible, physical asset.
However, investing in masterworks also comes with certain risks and challenges. One of the main risks is the potential for market volatility, as the value of artwork can fluctuate based on factors such as supply and demand, economic conditions, and changes in tastes and trends. Additionally, investing in masterworks can be a relatively illiquid investment, meaning that it may be difficult to quickly sell shares of a particular work of art if needed.
Despite these risks, some investors may find investing in masterworks to be an attractive option due to the potential for high returns, the diversification benefits, and the aesthetic appeal of owning a piece of high-end artwork. It is important, however, to carefully consider the risks involved and to consult with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

I see a line of thinking for each of these.
The first argument is one that focuses on overall value. $1,000 per day is about equivalent to $365,000 per year. You might think that if you have another 30 years in you that this would eventually add up to more money, but not necessarily! You have to consider the Time Value of Money (TVM). An investment of $P yields an annual return of i*P=X, where i is the annual interest. typical APR ranges from a few percent to 10 percent after tax, so lets assume you pick a low fee mutual fund and get 8% consistently. that means you can calculate the value of $365,000/year as P=X/i=$365000/.08=$4,562,500. The value of the payments till the end of time is equal to about 4.5 million dollars today. This ignores the risk of your eventual death. By this line of reasoning, get the cash today.
The other line of argument is one of certainty. Do you feel confident that someone won't talk you into putting a million dollars into the equivalent of crypto twenty years from now? What about your own risk of buying a liiiiittle too much year after year and eventually running out? You could hire someone to manage it for you, but that turns into a question of how much you trust your financial advisor, who (in the US) is often not required to keep your best interest in mind when managing your investments. A thousand dollar daily annuity, assuming that it is something you can reliably count on forever, would be able to put those fears to bed.
Financial stuff involves judgement calls like this all the time. What's your tolerance for risk? Your capacity for self control? Would giving a portion of the lump sum to friends and family strengthen or strain your support network? In a world where right wingers are constantly trying to tear down the social safety net, it's valuable to plan for your own financial self-sufficiency, whether that's for an individual or a community.
Explain your reasoning plzzz
#sorry for the soapbox speech I just love money talk#me personally#I'd put it all into a mutual fund while seeking out co-investors#once the overall fund exceeded 50 million dollars I'd buy a square mile of land next to an Amtrak line and build the core of a carfree town#sell at-cost to encourage people to move there#and advertise to people who can't drive that their disability/social security payments can afford an actual home#then live out my days in peace and quiet away from anyone stupid enough to by Loud Pipes for their car

After $100,000, Bitcoin May Hit $1 Million By 2033: How Can Indian Investors Ride The Wave?
Bitcoin Crosses $100,000: Bitcoin has stormed past the $100,000 mark, marking a historic milestone fuelled by a mix of political and economic developments in the United States. The cryptocurrency‘s recent rally comes amid growing institutional confidence and a pro-crypto policy shift under the leadership of US President-Elect Donald Trump. His appointment of Paul Atkins, a crypto advocate, as the SEC Chair and Elon Musk’s leadership in the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency are clear signals of a favourable regulatory environment for digital assets.
Over the past month alone, BTC has surged by 50 per cent, with its market cap crossing the $2 trillion threshold and delivering 144 per cent year-to-date (YTD) return. Riding this wave of optimism, other tokens have also gained significant traction — SOL and XRP have hit an all-time high.
What’s Driving Bitcoin’s Meteoric Rise?
This rally isn’t just about political shifts. Bitcoin ETFs recorded a staggering $676 million inflow in a single day, highlighting robust institutional demand. Edul Patel, CEO of Mudrex, expects that Bitcoin is expected to hit $120,000 in coming weeks.
advertisement
Global investment firm Bernstein in its latest report said Bitcoin could be headed for the stratosphere. It predicts Bitcoin to touch $200,000 by 2025, $500,000 by 2029, and $1 million per token by 2033.
With the US embracing pro-crypto policies other countries are also moving favourably, China has now lifted restrictions on personal crypto ownership. Brazil, and Russia are considering Bitcoin for reserves, signalling its growing global economic role.
What Experts Suggest Indian Investors
For Indian investors, this rally presents a golden opportunity. Despite regulatory uncertainty in India, the global push toward cryptocurrency legitimisation could benefit local investors. With increasing acceptance, Bitcoin is cementing itself as a hedge against inflation and a mainstream asset class.
“For investors, the spotlight now shifts to long-term planning: keeping an eye on market cycles, diversifying portfolios, and staying updated on regulatory shifts. While this breakthrough fuels optimism, it’s important to tread carefully — volatility remains part of the game," Himanshu Maradiya, Chairman and Founder, CIFDAQ.
Balaji Srihari, business head at CoinSwitch, said if the past is any indicator, the April 2024 halving could spark a rally of 300-400 per cent, aligning perfectly with this forecasted target.
“However, in this dynamic environment, investors must stay informed about market developments to make confident and well-informed decisions," Srihari added.
How to Invest in Bitcoin in India?
If you’re new to the crypto world or looking to expand your portfolio, here’s how you can get started:
1. Choose a Reliable Exchange
Platforms like WazirX, CoinDCX, and Binance offer secure and user-friendly interfaces for trading Bitcoin. Ensure the platform is compliant with Indian regulations and offers robust security features.
2. Understand the Risks
Bitcoin’s volatility is legendary. While its long-term trajectory seems promising, investors must be prepared for sharp price swings. Invest only what you can afford to lose.
3. Stay Informed
Keep an eye on global developments, particularly in the US, as policy changes can significantly impact crypto markets. Utilise tools like CoinMarketCap and Glassnode to monitor Bitcoin’s performance.
4. Diversify Your Portfolio
While Bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency, consider diversifying into other digital assets like Ethereum, Solana, or Cardano. Diversification can help balance risk and reward.
5. Consult Your Financial Advisor
Crypto is a highly volatile instrument involving high risk, it is highly necessary to consult a financial advisor before putting your money into such instruments.
Tax Implications for Indian Investors
In India, cryptocurrency gains are treated as a separate class of income. As per current regulations:
Flat 30% Tax on Gains: Any profit from the transfer of cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin, is taxed at a flat rate of 30%. This applies irrespective of the holding period (short-term or long-term).
No Deduction for Losses or Expenses: Except for the cost of acquisition, no other deductions are allowed. Losses from crypto cannot be set off against other income and cannot be carried forward to subsequent years.
1% TDS: A 1% Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is applicable on transactions exceeding ₹50,000 (₹10,000 for non-salaried individuals) in a financial year.

By Michael McKay
December 30, 2024
Tragically most people have a very hard time taking a profit and in particular, Big Profits. This applies to all asset classes but is tremendously relevant to speculative investing in things like futures or Crypto.
Why is it so hard? I’ve identified two poison pills: Delusion and Emotional Paralysis.
I’ve suffered from both. Worse, I’ve often suffered from both at the same time. Over 50 years of trading both of these poison pills have cost me enormous amounts of money that was right there within my reach – all I had to do was bag a profit – but instead I’d not act, the market would turn and I’d give it all back…or worse finally exit with a net loss.
The Market is a brutal teacher but eventually I learned how they’re connected. Answer: Fear.
Delusion is a fear of two things: FOMO (fear of missing out) plus a false belief that “it’s never going to stop.” Well…A big profit surge always stops. Ok, it may only pause but that pause can last a LONG time.
Emotional Paralysis manifests when fear short circuits my analytical brain. It’s a kind of Mental Blindness where I can not think of “What Do I Do NEXT?”
My 10 Point Profit Plan List was the cure for me to stop losing Big Profits when they’d appear from time to time. I found that simply reading over my list of options helped me overcome fear and be a more successful trader in general and a better money manager for my family.
Keep this caveat in mind: With profits there are tax implications you must consider and discuss with your tax advisor because there may be reasons for NOT taking big profits at a given moment.
But setting that one caveat aside, here’s my list of options “What to do next” when sudden Big Profits occur for you.

Understanding the Money Services Business License in the USA
Running a business in finance? If yes, you’ve likely heard about a little legal requirement called the Money Services Business (MSB) License. Essential, isn’t it? Yet, it’s one of those terms that can make even experienced entrepreneurs scratch their heads. Don’t worry—you’re not alone! We’re here to break it down so you can go from "What is this?" to "I've got this!"
First Things First—What Is an MSB License?
An MSB license is mandatory in the U.S. for businesses involved in a range of financial transactions. Think of it as a legit badge of approval from Uncle Sam, ensuring that your business complies with federal and state regulations. Whether you’re handling money orders, wire transfers, virtual currency, or performing foreign currency exchanges, this license is your golden ticket to operate legally!
But here’s the kicker—this license is regulated by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the U.S. Department of Treasury. Why? To ensure that bad actors don’t misuse financial services for illegal activities like money laundering or fraud. Translation? It keeps the industry safe for everyone, including you.
Who Needs an MSB License?
Now, not every business needs an MSB license. But if your business offers services such as:
Currency trading or exchanges
Prepaid card issuances
Virtual currency transfers (hello, crypto companies!)
Remittance services (like sending money across borders)
You fall under the MSB umbrella.
Pro Tip? If you’re unsure whether you qualify as an MSB, consult a professional to steer clear of penalties. Not complying with MSB regulations could mean big trouble, including hefty fines and revoking your business operations. And that's a buzzkill nobody wants.
The Step-by-Step Process to Get Your MSB License
Feeling daunted already? Relax, it’s easier when it’s laid out step by step. Here's the straightforward breakdown:
Step 1️⃣ - Register with FinCEN
Start by registering online through the FinCEN Portal. This process is fairly quick, typically taking about a few hours to complete. It’s free—yay, no hidden costs here!
Step 2️⃣ - Satisfy State Requirements
While FinCEN regulates MSBs at a federal level, individual states have their own licensing requirements. Surprise! Some states are super chill, while others (looking at you, New York!) make you jump through flaming hoops.
Tip? Make sure to study the regulatory needs in your specific state before you start.
Step 3️⃣ - Get a Surety Bond (If Needed)
What is a surety bond? Think of it as a financial safety net for your customers. Some states demand it before issuing your MSB license. You’ll pay an insurance company a percentage of the bond’s total coverage as a fee. It’s basically financial protection in action.
Step 4️⃣ - Submit Background Checks
Be ready to provide background checks not just for yourself, but for any key figures involved in your business. Yes, they want to know everyone playing a role in your financial ecosystem.
Step 5️⃣ - Tailor Your Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Policy
An MSB license isn’t just about registration. It’s about compliance, baby! Inspectors love businesses with strong Anti-Money Laundering (AML) programs. This includes regular audits, staff training, and comprehensive record-keeping.
Still think it's overwhelming? We feel you. That’s where professional consultants come to the rescue!
Why Choose SBA Tax Consultants for Your MSB Licensing Journey?
Here’s the good news—if reading the above makes you dizzy, SBA Tax Consultants, based in the heart of Dallas, Texas, has got your back! We’re professionals who live and breathe licensing and compliance.
Why work with us? Here’s what sets us apart:

Proven Track Record: Hundreds of U.S.-based businesses trust us to simplify the labyrinth of licensing.
Make SBA Tax Consultants your partner and focus on building your dream business while we handle the nitty-gritty!
The Real Perks of the MSB License
Okay, so apart from legality, why else should you care about obtaining an MSB license? The benefits are plenty:
Legitimacy - Gain trust from clients and stakeholders with a fully authorized financial service.
Partnership Opportunities - Many banks and institutions often refuse to work with unlicensed MSBs. Having the license opens more doors!
Peace of Mind - No looming fear of fines or legal tangles. You’re running above board!
Fun Fact Bonus!
Did you know that the earliest form of money service dates back to ancient money changers in Babylon, around 3000 BCE? Imagine them trying to figure out compliance back then. 😅 At least we now have SBA Tax Consultants to make things simple!
Take the First Step Toward Licensing Success
Still wondering how to go about obtaining your Money Services Business License in the USA? Don’t leave it up to guesswork! SBA Tax Consultants is here to make your licensing process fast, stress-free, and—dare we say—fun.

Donald Trump Picks Scott Bessent as U.S. Treasury Secretary Candidate
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Scott Bessent, CEO of Key Square Group and former chief investment officer at Soros Fund Management, as Treasury Secretary, succeeding Janet Yellen. Bessent, who served as Trump’s Economic Advisor during the 2024 election campaign, marks a historic milestone as the first LGBTQ member in a Republican cabinet. Trump praised Bessent’s dedication to the “America First” agenda, expressing confidence in his ability to maintain the U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency.
Bessent’s pro-crypto stance has sparked optimism in the blockchain sector, with expectations that he will bolster U.S. dominance in digital currencies and foster blockchain innovation. While XRP’s Brad Garlinghouse backed the nomination, Elon Musk suggested Howard Lutnick as an alternative for transformative change. Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), aimed at enhancing federal operations.
Bessent’s agenda includes trade renewal, tax reforms, and national debt control.
