    What Is the Jones Act And Why It Hurts Puerto Rico?

If you’ve ever wondered why goods are more expensive in Puerto Rico or how U.S. policies affect the island, this episode explains it in simple terms. We also discuss the recent 60-day waiver and why it raises bigger questions about whether the law should exist at all.

From food prices to energy costs, we explain how this century-old law continues to shape the island’s economy today. We also touch on how policies like Act 60 and U.S. regulations influence Puerto Rico’s financial future. Finally, we connect the dots between Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Central America, including updates on Cuba’s economic changes and President Nayib Bukele’s growing relationship with the United States.

    Puerto Rico Just Cost Itself Millions (Here's Why)

    Join the free Latin Wealth Skool community (link below) for deeper conversations, resources, and weekly breakdowns. https://www.skool.com/latinwealth/about Puerto Rico just lost a major film opportunity — and the consequences could ripple far beyond entertainment. In this Wealth Wednesday episode, Chris and Jeremiah break down why a Puerto Rico-centered film featuring Bad Bunny is reportedly moving production to the Dominican Republic, what that means for jobs, local spending, and long-term tourism, and why politics and permitting can quietly decide who wins economically. Then we zoom out to the bigger geopolitical picture: China’s strategy in Latin America. While headlines claim China is being “pushed out,” we discuss why it may actually be recalibrating — shifting from visibility to leverage through infrastructure, ports, telecom, trade relationships, and currency swaps. We cover Panama’s Belt and Road exit, Chile and Argentina project changes, and why countries may be playing both sides while the U.S. pressures the region. If you care about Puerto Rico’s future, Latin America’s economic direction, and the real power moves shaping trade and influence, this episode connects the dots.
