Let me tell you something about myself. I am a straight shooter.
The American Dream means any person can achieve prosperity through hard work and ingenuity because there are no inherent barriers in our society.
There are good leaks and bad leaks.
On the back of comic books in the 1970s, there was something called the American Seed Company. They would send you a cardboard box full of seeds; kids would sell them door-to-door in the neighborhood and then pick from a catalog of prizes. I bought myself a watch that way.
The blockchain concept was pioneered within the context of crypto-currency Bitcoin, but engineers have imagined many other ways for distributed ledger technology to streamline the world. Stock exchanges and big banks, for example, are looking at blockchain-type systems as trading settlement platforms.
I want to keep my head in the game, my ego low.
Donald Trump doesn't speak like a politician, and that's made some people uncomfortable. In a world of political correctness run amok, his straight talk has been a breath of fresh air.
I am not a politician. I'm an American businessman and entrepreneur that have built two businesses, and I try to play it straight with people.
I went to law school with President Obama.

Some brothers are like Cain and Abel. Other brothers can fight with each other and get along.
Good debt accrues assets that generate positive returns and externalities.
Twenty-nine years on Wall Street, and an Italian last name, not one trading violation... they can't find anything. Because I would never dishonor my dad by hurting my last name by doing something stupid for money or for power.
Unfortunately, my dad had a brain tumor, and my father-in-law passed away from leukemia, so I spend a lot of time on those two causes. I also tend to support military charities like Warrior Gateway, which helps guys transition from combat back into civilian life.
When you have steady inflows and global central banks hell-bent on stoking credit activity and inflation, money will flow into the most attractive areas.
I'm very close to Jay Sekulow. We know each other very well. Trust Jay.
The role of monetary policy is to smooth out business cycles by promoting steady inflation and healthy labor markets, but modern central bankers have taken an activist turn.
The rise of Donald Trump has exposed a deep chasm in America between the haves and have-nots.
Beijing is trying to split the baby between simultaneously liberalizing the economy and maintaining economic stability, but those two factors are increasingly mutually exclusive.
My parents never went to college. My dad started as an hourly worker.
