TOP SALARIES AND HOURLY PAY IMMEDIATELY IF YOU WANT TO THRIVE! LESSON: Immediately change your compensation plans to make all employees and owners’ compensation directly tied to their personal performance and the overall company performance. That is it! 95% of a company’s success is tied to the compensation plans for all stakeholders. That is a fact I have been pounding on the table about for 30 years. All the rest is noise. Adam Smith in 1776 wrote in The Wealth of Nations,

LESSON: Our Nation must focus on incentives for home ownership and homebuilding to save the economy, the GDP, and the culture of America. Previously, in our May 2, 2026, Newsletter, I reported how home ownership has beaten 99% of all other investment alternatives for young adults in the history of this great country. But the current environment was making this impossible, and the statistics were terrible. Reminder, in the last 55 years, the number of U.S. houses have doubled

LESSON: Stop permitting Baseball All-Star vote-getters to decline playing, NBA Load Management to occur, and College Football Bowl Game opt-outs – players and teams. Last week it was nice to see the American League finally win the Major League Baseball All-Star game for a change, but it was disappointing so many stars did not participate, many due to real injuries but many due to “rest and preparation of the second half of the season.” Can you imagine Pete Rose sitting out an

LESSON: Small Business Leaders must take over the power of Washington, the IRS, and the Media, to finally recreate a proper merit equals rewards system in America. A great oxymoron = Unionize Small Business! Quick Stats: 99% of businesses in America are Small Businesses. 46% of American workers work for Small Businesses. 44% of America’s GDP (Revenue) comes from Small Businesses. In the last 15 years, 55% of all net new jobs have come from Small Businesses. Yet, where was Joe

LESSON: News and social media warp our perception of this one-of-a-kind incredible country. Turn it all off and celebrate the amazing citizens and history of this unique experiment. Patriotism is at an 80-year high! You can feel it. Maybe it’s the 250th Birthday. Maybe it’s the FIFA World Cup in the United States. Maybe it’s the release of true feelings after so many years of focusing on how terrible our country and people are. No one really believed it, but it was crammed do

LESSON: Social Security mandatory payroll tax withdraws from you at gunpoint have destroyed your wealth, and now they admit they’re out of money. They always have been! Government lie number “one millionth” to cover this week. This is the fourth newsletter I have published in the last nine years about the fraud of social security. For you paying attention, yes, that means I was first publishing the JAM Views blog from the Federal Prison Law Library– when I wasn’t plotting the

LESSON: While most true American workers continue daily with evermore depression about the economy and the dissolvement of the fabric of our society, we must look to Great Britain for the cautionary tale of what is likely coming. He who fails to study history, or his predecessors, is doomed to repeat it. I know we have a hard enough time keeping up with our own national economic, cultural, and political disasters, but studying the massive decline of our ancestor nation can b

LESSON: Stop messing with merit! As always, initiatives designed to even playing fields and help less-fortunate groups rise achieve the opposite results the government told you would happen. Back in 2020, the California Public University System (UC) led the charge to get rid of SAT and ACT test requirements – imagine that. The justifications, as with everything else, were they discriminated against minority groups. But these tests also exposed the teacher unions’ woeful educa

LESSON: This weekend remember that only 6% of Adult United States Citizens are veterans – the ones who have put their lives on the line so that the rest of us have remained free for 250 years. This statistic is shocking to some as it seems it must be more, but it always comes as a surprise that such a small percentage of our men and women actually put themselves on the front lines to keep us free. Please reset your viewpoints and agendas this Memorial Day Weekend to look for

LESSON: Once they take everything from you, I mean everything, you must identify the insanity, accept your new station in life, and then take that first step back to rebuild and never let the bastards win! May 19, 2020, Ashleigh pulled up to the Beckly, West Virginia Federal Correctional Institute to pick me up from the Hell Journey. It had been seven years of incarceration in extremely violent surroundings and now I was being a released to home confinement, then supervised r

LESSON: Government Agencies and the DOJ continually indict American citizens for things that explicitly not illegal just because they can and want to – throw them all out! Federal Agencies over the last 30 years have continually indicted American citizens for things that are not illegal by any law or statute, even with the horrific explosion of thousands of more statutes and unchecked power to federal agencies to shut down your business, take everything you own, and imprison

LESSON: The percentage of U.S. 30-year-olds who are now married and own a home is reportedly down to 13%. In 1960 it was 53%. This shocking realization is the most relevant statistic to the final downfall of America if not fixed immediately! As a reader of JAM Views Blog, you by now understand that at the end of the day, economics control all – all the rest is noise and purposeful fog and friction of war presented by the hanging-on elite, corrupt politicians, and crazy unifor

LESSON: U.S. Taxpayers, with the heaviest burden being on the middle class, every year pay for college scholarships and loans for ridiculous degrees with no economic return for our country, GDP, and race against all other countries. Every year, U.S. taxpayers pay $billions, yes $billions, in grants and loans for young people to be able to take 4, 5, 6 years studying Fashion Design, Communications, Art History, Music, Liberal Arts, Religious Studies, Performing Arts, Anthropol

Lesson: The U.S. federal and state governments continue to implement policy after policy to stop our citizens from working and instead rely on the government, especially able-bodied men. Understand the design! President Lyndon B Johnson, after replacing JFK following his mysterious murder, quickly implemented expanded Medicaid, Head Start, Food Stamps, and a long list of programs to pay people for not working. Of course, our nation will always support the mothers and children

LESSON: When making business and personal decisions, do the math to understand that we receive the same rate of return on $100k as we could on $1M. It all is the same if we expand our minds, and if a truly great business decision, more capital will always be available. Your business and life successes are always a result of your goals, aspirations, and beliefs of what you deserve. There is little to no difference from the man who makes $60k per year to the man who makes $10M

LESSON: Take a moment this Easter weekend to understand the gift of resurrection. Overcome your challenges, resentment, failure, and even hatred to understand the miracles of life, and find your Fitz! You don’t have to watch Rocky, Rudy, and Hoosiers too many times to understand the world loves a good resurrection. For all of us who have experienced great setbacks and disappointments, and of course that is all of us, remember this Easter the purpose of life is to overcome all

LESSON: Do everything you can to promote Charter Schools, Vouchers, and any Possible Path to get your kids out of public education! Recently we blogged about America’s necessity to totally reboot our education system, so this weekend let’s drill down further on one great success – Charter Schools. For those not involved in this battle, Charter Schools are simply publicly funded independent schools established by teachers, parents, or community groups under the terms of a char

LESSON: Along with returning to a gold or silver monetary standard, the U.S. must produce a residential building boom (ownership not renting) and ban large corporations from residential home ownership. We recently reviewed how the printing of fiat money has already bankrupted the United States, raising our debt to $38 Trillion and reducing the value of a dollar 96% since the corrupt Federal Reserve took over. Now, let’s explain how the government and elites have destroyed the

LESSON: When you are in the throes of extreme adversity, you are an easy target for manipulation. Your hope and desperation blind you to the sharks circling your life raft. Be more aware and stronger than I was. The below lesson is an excerpt from my Amazon #1 Best Seller, When Not If: A CEO's Guide to Overcoming Adversity, Forbes Books, 2024. The night before my joint resentencing (the overturned sentence plus the bizarre new indictment), I called Ashleigh on the jail’s reco

LESSON: I spent time in 14 federal prisons so each institution could get paid – Body on Budget! The corruption is beyond anything you can imagine – get educated! Throughout my battle against the U.S. federal government, they sent me to 14 different federal prisons and jails. This was to ensure everyone gets paid. We called it body on budget . They also call it diesel therapy, so your family, lawyers, and paperwork could never catch up to you and provide any due process. It ha
