1 Thing that Would Set the Whole World Free – Ken O’Keefe
Ken explains the lynch pin that holds the system in place. And since the current system in ready to implode, best we come up with a better alternative to their proposed replacement, the CBDC. Most people think that CBDC stands for Central Bank Digital Currency but it really stands for Coerce, Block, Diabolical Control. For that’s their plan.
Coerce you into doing what they want
Block you from doing what they do not allow until they accomplish
Diabolical Control over all of us.

Australians lost more than $3 billion to scammers in 2022. Here are five emerging scams to look out for
Here’s what we’ve learned from the latest report – and some advice on what to look out for in the year ahead.
The Donkey In The Well
One day a farmer’s donkey fell into a well. The animal cried loudly for hours, while the farmer tried to find something to do to get him out.
Finally, the farmer decided that the donkey was old and the well was already dry and needed to be covered anyway; that it really wasn’t worth pulling the donkey out of the well.
He invited all his neighbors to come help him. They each grabbed a shovel and began to throw dirt into the well.
The donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly loud. Then, to everyone’s surprise, he quieted down after a few shovelfuls of dirt.
The farmer finally looked down into the well and was amazed at what he saw… …with each shovelful of dirt, the donkey was doing something incredible: It was shaking off the dirt and stepping on top of the dirt.
Very soon everyone saw surprised how the donkey reached the mouth of the well, went over the edge and trotted out.
Life is going to throw dirt at you, all kinds of dirt… the trick to getting out of the hole is to shake it off and use it to step up. Each of our problems is a step up. We can get out of the deepest holes if we don’t give up…
Use the land they throw you to get ahead!!!
Remember the 5 rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hate.
2. Free your Mind of distractions.
3. Simplify your life.
4. Give more and expect less.
5. Love more and… shake the dirt, because in this life you have to be a solution, not the problem!

The Credit She Is Being Crunched
There is no possible way to spin “the steepest decline in lending on record” to make it sound good.
Our economy runs on mortgages, auto loans and credit cards, and so a dramatic reduction in lending will inevitably lead to a dramatic reduction in economic activity.
A lot of people are comparing this new crisis to what we went through in 2008 and 2009, because that is the only downturn in recent memory that is comparable.
Unfortunately, I am entirely convinced that this new crisis will eventually greatly surpass what we experienced during the Great Recession.
So I would encourage you to do whatever you need to do to get ready for harsh economic times, because what is ahead is not going to be pleasant for any of us.

Money Tips
Agree With Freedom!
Agree is stronger than disagree and you end up becoming that which you resist. So don’t disagree, don’t resist, agree with what you want to have happen and focus on that!
Investment Tips
(Tom: There are some good tips below but I will trump them with this one.
I worked as an insurance agent for AMP for 12 years. THE most important investing tip I learned from my time there was, “Invest in your own income earning potential.”
You can only ever invest a portion of what you earn. If you earn 4 times as much you have a LOT more to invest!)
Josh Gwin writes:
in 2013 I had my money with a financial advisor.
The market went up 27%.
My investments went up 0%.
I asked my guy why and he said, “You said you didn’t want to lose money so I put you in very conservative investments.”
I started learning to manage my own investments the next day.
Here’s what’s worked for me:
Spend less than you earn.
Invest the difference in S&P 500 index funds. I use VTSAX primarily.
Keep expenses ratio low (easy if you invest in index funds with no financial advisor).
Automate your investing.
I have a percentage of every check I get automatically go to buy index funds.
Avoid any financial advisor that charges by assets under management (AUM).
Read Jim Collins stock series.
Marry the right person.
