Editor's Note: Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, the #1 personal finance book of all time with over 40 million copies sold, has spent decades teaching everyday Americans how the wealthy actually build income. He called the 2008 housing crash before it happened, warned investors to buy gold and silver well before their historic runs, and has been pounding the table on cash-flowing assets for over 30 years. Today, he'll show you an income play funded entirely by America's oil and gas infrastructure. One that's already paying some investors $25,000 a month and is the closest thing to universal basic income that may ever exist. Click here to see the details or read more below.

Saudi Arabia figured it out.

They pay their citizens $3,600 a month per family. Just for existing. Funded entirely by oil.

Meanwhile, politicians in America are arguing about Twitter, while you get nothing from the $300 billion we generate from oil and gas every year.

But there is a way to collect.

It's called the Patriot Income Plan, or P.I.P. for short.

It's not a government program. It's not a stimulus check. It's not tied to an election or a budget vote.

It's direct ownership in 14 entities that control America's energy infrastructure — pipelines, terminals, processing plants — and pay 10% a year to everyone who holds units.

Put in $10,000 = get $1,000 back.
Put in $50,000 = get $5,000 back.
Put in $100,000 = get $10,000 back.

42 payouts a year. Deposited automatically.

This is universal basic income for people who don't want to wait around for the government to figure it out.

P.I.P. is on pace to pay out $53 billion this year — a record. The next distribution drops in days.

Here's how to enroll

Sincerely,

Achieve Robust Diversification With These 3 Equal-Weight ETFs

Author: Nathan Reiff. Date Posted: 7/13/2026.

Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) remain among the most popular investment vehicles, with inflows in the first half of 2026 reaching a record $1 trillion across the ETF universe. Investors continue to flock to these funds for their ready-made diversification, since a single trade can provide access to dozens, hundreds or even more stocks and securities. However, investors who do not pay close attention to an ETF's methodology and weighting structure may end up with a less diversified portfolio than they expected.

Many ETFs track indexes that weight assets by market capitalization or other factors, which can create significant imbalances within a basket. For example, an investor expecting broad exposure to a sector or industry may instead end up with heavy exposure to a handful of names and much less exposure to the rest of the group. This is not necessarily a problem, but it is something many investors overlook. One solution for investors seeking greater balance across an ETF's entire basket is to focus on equal-weight funds like those listed below.

An Alternative to Traditional S&P 500 Funds

When most investors think of the S&P 500, they think of the free-float market-cap-weighted index in which the largest companies hold the most sway. However, the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (NYSEARCA: RSP) tracks an equal-weight version of the index made up of the same stocks. This creates exposure that is far more balanced across the index, although it can come at the expense of outperformance when the largest companies in the S&P 500 are thriving.

As investors might expect, RSP holds just over 500 positions, none of which represents more than about a third of a percent of the overall portfolio. By comparison, a fund like the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY)—a go-to fund that tracks the S&P 500 index—has largest holdings that represent 7% or more.

In the case of RSP, the equal-weighting approach offers not only greater risk mitigation but also improved performance so far in 2026. The fund has returned close to 12% year to date (YTD), beating the broader S&P 500 in the process. In exchange, investors must be prepared to pay a bit more, as RSP has an annual fee of 0.20%, substantially higher than the cheapest broad S&P funds.

Equal Weighting for the Nasdaq-100

The First Trust NASDAQ-100 Equal Weighted Index Fund (NASDAQ: QQEW) takes a similar approach to RSP, but with a focus on the Nasdaq-100 Index instead of the S&P 500. The Nasdaq-100 weights its collection of major non-financial companies using a modified market-cap approach, leading to some positions in Nasdaq-100 ETFs being significantly larger than others.

QQEW equalizes its roughly 52 holdings so that each represents no more than about 2.8% of the basket. This can help reduce some of the tech-sector overweighting that occurs in traditional Nasdaq-100 funds. However, because of the smaller number of positions overall and the importance of tech stocks to the broader Nasdaq-100 index, equal weighting does not completely eliminate the bias toward tech.

This fund has returned nearly 12% YTD and carries a higher expense ratio of 0.55%. It also has fairly modest assets under management (AUM) and trading volume, making it perhaps more appropriate for less active, buy-and-hold investors than for those seeking regular liquidity.

A Take on the Fortune 500 List With Equal Weighting

Yet another equal-weighting approach can be found with the DoubleLine Fortune 500 Equal Weight ETF (NYSEARCA: DFVE), an ETF dedicated to an equal-weight version of the Fortune 500 list. The Fortune 500 tracks the largest companies in the United States by revenue, rather than market cap, so it can diverge significantly from the S&P 500.

DFVE holds around 467 positions, mostly large- and mid-cap stocks, with the largest position accounting for only about 0.39% of the total portfolio. So far this year, it has returned just under 13% YTD, and the expense ratio of this fund is on par with RSP at 0.20%. One caveat for potential investors is that DFVE has substantially lower AUM and average trading volume than the other funds on this list, suggesting liquidity may be more of an issue. Still, for long-term investors seeking an alternative to the S&P 500 and equal weighting, DFVE may be worth considering.
