Climate Chaos Unleashed: How Rising Temperatures Are Shaking Global Power & Your Tomorrow

Dear Fellow Wealth Builder,

Sometimes, when you zoom out, the patterns become impossible to ignore.

In this issue, I wanted to explore five interconnected forces reshaping the world we thought we understood. Geopolitics, trade wars, oil dynamics, Brexit’s long shadow, and climate instability—they’re not separate threads. They’re part of one unfolding story.

The decisions made now will define the next decade—economically, politically, and personally. Take a moment. Read with curiosity. These stories aren’t just about the world out there. They’re about how we all adapt to the one we’re building.

Warm regards,
