At the top of the show, WTD discusses the recent collapse in the US dollar and how sad he is.  Plus, can we predict where the USD will be by next Fall when people in the US might be going to Europe? He has a take on the new Harry memoir.  And finally, he’ll weigh in on recent Chinese travel restrictions and why these appear not to be based in the science. Then, the family takes an two day trip to the Elephant Nature Park.  He’ll discuss the food, accommodations, daily activities, and the overall price of this getaway. If you want to play the currency markets, but don’t want to open a foreign bank account, WTD highly recommends Wise service.  He has been using it in the global arbitrage game to great success.  You can use this service even if you just stay in the US.  When you need the Euros for that next trip, they’ll be there, and you’ve bought when the dollar was strong. https://wise.com/invite/u/jameso1983 Click the above link to start your account today.  Full disclosure:  WTD gets a very miniscule kickback if you sign up and capitalize with at least $300 in any currency.  This will help fuel his copious beer drinking.  If you think the US dollar is going to come down before your next trip, this is a good tool.  I cannot overemphasize how much versatility this account has given me in trip planning and execution, not to mention currency arbitrage.
