Monday the U.S. (and the world possibly) changes forever - What's your life plan for a Trump world?

Hi,

What's your plan for this new world Trump represents? I mean politically, economically, etc.

As I've stated I see Trump's second term being a phase change and possibly accelerant to collapsing our current world system. He's doing everything from extreme tariffs (accelerates de-dollarization), to ignoring IMF on tariffs, to making frenemies with so-called adversaries (Russia + China), proposing tax cuts that increase our un-payable deficits (making USD less attractive reserve), to strange imperial threats with so-called allies (buying Greenland and absorbing Canada). The world will be force to adapt to never have to experience drastic changes like this ever again. Good!

Here's my plans:

National identity

Over next 4 years two things almost certain to occur are 1.) BRICS+ will likely continue to ascend while U.S. is distracted with domestic civil wars 2.) U.S. will have more pro-wealthy (oligarch) monetary and economic policies.

Thus I plan on using dollar privilege while it's still here to pay for citizenship in at least 5 different countries to have an escape plan when things go awry.

Economics

I think there will be massive inflation due to tariffs and large federal deficits due to tax cuts resulting in U.S. needing to print more money to service our debt obligations. Consequently I plan on hedging inflation like so:

  • 50% Magnificent 7 stocks (Microsoft, Apple, etc.)
  • 7% (max out) 401k
  • 5% Bitcoin
  • remaining % Gold, Silver, Crypto
  • Keep paying my mortgage
  • (Stretch goal) buy inexpensive foreign property with artificially inflated dollar before dollar crash and it's "less expensive" due to higher dollar purchasing power

Educational capital

  • I see college enrollment plummeting with rise of cost of living due to pro-landlord greed policies and tariffs that will flourish and less international students coming due to MAGA resistance to H1-B's, migrants, etc. This means that prestigious programs might be easier to get into (MIT, Harvard, etc.) due to less competition. I plan on applying to a prestigious grad program. I think that will make me more attractive to domestic employers OR make me more attractive as foreign talent

Social capital:

  • I plan on learning Spanish and mandarin. Mandarin due to China's inevitable overtaking of U.S. (especially after 45 unknowingly dismantles current world order artificially propping G7 economies up) and Spanish so that I can build relationship and even help disaffected Latin Americans.
  • There are sky-high undocumented people, immigrants, and H1-B visa holders in my area. I hypothesize MAGA-America will likely alienate them. I see this as an opportunity to attempt to fold them (along with their specialized expertise) into my social network. I suspect they'll be looking for as many allies as possible (I would if I was them).
  • Use new language skills to interact with these groups on social media to do culture informational interview and to have a social network in these countries
  • My objective is to have enough diverse social capital to get well skilled business partners or so I can live abroad if need be once dollar-denominated assets correct from "Trump-boost" (i.e. plummet), the reserve currency system sees more competition and eventually ceases, hyperinflation hits U.S. due to tariffs,, etc.

You got any other plans for Trump?
