5 Money Habits That Keep People Broke - According to Warren Buffett

1. Buying New Cars

New cars quickly lose their value. Buffett drove a 2006 Cadillac for nearly a decade. Reliable used cars can save thousands of dollars - money better invested.

2. High-Interest Debt

Credit cards drain wealth. “If you buy things you don’t need, you’ll soon have to sell things you do need.” Avoid debt, invest instead.

3. Gambling and Lotteries

Buffett calls them a "tax on people who don’t understand math." The odds are against you. Long-term wealth comes from patience, not luck.

4. Trying to Impress Others

Buffett still lives in the same modest home. Spending for status is a financial trap. True wealth doesn’t need to show off.

5. Eating Out Too Often

He prefers simple meals like McDonald's. Constant dining out drains savings. Cooking at home boosts both health and financial security.#WarrenBuffett

The dollar faces an unprecedented "systemic risk", according to the central bank of central banks
The Bank for International Settlements has published a report warning about the delicate situation of the US dollar. According to it, the greenback is facing a "historic test of resilience".

Augustin Carstens, the outgoing president of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), shared his vision of the global economy in a speech this weekend. According to him, the long-established economic order is wavering, with a dollar facing a major "systemic risk".

The central bank of central banks indeed believes that a "new era of uncertainty and increased unpredictability" has been triggered by the geopolitical conflicts currently shaking the world, as well as the economic decisions of US President Donald Trump.

"The outlook has since darkened. The announcement of widespread tariffs by the United States has caused a shockwave in the markets."#TrumpVsMusk $USDT

$311 billion in volume in one month: the disturbing secret behind the BNB Chain record
The BNB Chain has just set a historic record with over $311 billion traded in one month on its DEX. But behind this staggering figure lies a much more troubling mechanism: artificially inflated volumes, traders without real exposure, and airdrop hunting orchestrated down to the last detail.

Record volumes on the BNB Chain

In the ultra-competitive world of the crypto industry, attention is key. Without it, even the most solid project risks going unnoticed. And in this context, impressive figures serve as a formidable lever to capture attention.

If there is one player that seems to have perfectly understood this logic, it is Binance - or more precisely, its blockchain: the BNB Chain.

Indeed, the BNB Chain has just set a record - across all blockchains - by recording $311.6 billion in volumes on its decentralized exchanges (DEX) in 1 month:#bnb $BNB

OpenAI alerts on the tokenization of its shares

On Monday, Robinhood made several announcements at the EthCC[8] in Cannes, one of which concerned tokenized shares. In addition to publicly traded stocks, the platform distinguished itself by promising access to private companies, such as OpenAI and SpaceX.

However, the news does not seem to please the developer of ChatGPT, who distanced itself from the initiative on Wednesday evening on its X profile:

“These ‘OpenAI tokens’ are not OpenAI shares. We are not partners with Robinhood, did not participate in it, and do not endorse it. Any transfer of OpenAI shares requires our approval; we have not approved any transfer. Please be cautious.”
