Got Yield?

What is Yield? This episode discusses yield in the context of financial literacy. I begin by discussing living yield, mineral yield, business and land. Then I discuss major classes of debt and equity financial products that include bonds and stocks. These ideas are foundational to be able to think about how yield works in cryptocurrency. For cryptocurrency, I only discuss the difference between custodian yield ("fake crypto") and custody-free yield ("real crypto"). This is general education and is not financial advice.

In previous episodes, I have discussed basics about crypto, such as risks, terminology, and perspective. If you are unfamiliar with cryptocurrency, please listen to my episodes titled "Risks and Warnings", and the episode "What is Crypto?". Cryptocurrency is software. It is the best performing asset class in history. I invite you to learn why.
