Sunday Edition - November 24, 2025
Good afternoon Member
Happy Sunday, my dear GrayViners. I hope you can forgive us for the late arrival today (technology was not friendly!). Better late than never, as they say? Now, Iâm excited to share something with you! Last night, I took my first shot at making homemade pizza. Letâs just say the kitchen survived, the smoke alarm behaved, and the end result actually tasted⌠pretty good! It made me think of all of you and the joy of sharing simple, cozy moments together each morning.
Now, that brings us right into todayâs question: Which pizza do you like betterâNew York style or Chicago's deep dish? Are you a thin, foldable slice kind of person, or is your heart set on a knife-and-fork deep dish? Head to the forum and let us knowâyour stories and preferences always make my day.
Alright, my favorite GrayViners, settle in and get comfy. Letâs roll right into todayâs stories: Bigger Social Security bumps, a must-see recall, a $10 Thanksgiving meal, and a chance at up to $3,000 bonus.

But what can you actually DO about the proclaimed âAI bubbleâ? Billionaires know an alternativeâŚ
Sure, if you held your stocks since the dotcom bubble, you wouldâve been upâeventually. But three years after the dot-com bust the S&P 500 was still far down from its peak. So, how else can you invest when almost every market is tied to stocks?
Lo and behold, billionaires have an alternative way to diversify: allocate to a physical asset class that outpaced the S&P by 15% from 1995 to 2025, with almost no correlation to equities. Itâs part of a massive global market, long leveraged by the ultra-wealthy (Bezos, Gates, Rockefellers etc).
