I have met the author and he really DOES know his stuff.)<br \/>\nI talked to a friend today.<br \/>\nSmart Dude, but he hadn&#8217;t quite grasped this whole Bail In operation.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s important to know what is being planned here. Your bank account could be at risk.<br \/>\nSo let me explain it simply.<br \/>\nA strategy has been devised by the Global Financial Mafia (and I use that term advisedly) to protect banks &#8211; particularly the large banks &#8211; from the financial calamity that is going to result from the explosion of the derivatives bubble.<br \/>\nWhat is the &#8220;Derivatives Bubble?&#8221;<br \/>\nDerivatives are essentially bets &#8211; yes, like Vegas &#8211; bets between financial institutions primarily on the direction of interest rates. One bank thinks rates are going up, the other thinks they are going down and they bet.<br \/>\nThe bet becomes a security, like a stock or a bond.<br \/>\nThen people bet on those bets and others bet on the bets of the bets and the bets pyramid to&#8230;.<br \/>\nToday, there are about $1.2 QUADRILLION dollars in derivatives on the planet. $1,200,000,000,000,000.<br \/>\nAbout $227 Trillion are held by U.S. banks. $227,000,000,000,000.<br \/>\nThe figures are mind numbing.<br \/>\nBanks can use depositors money to help fund their derivatives.<br \/>\nWe are talking fiscal insanity.<br \/>\nWarren Buffet has called derivatives, &#8220;Financial weapons of mass destruction.&#8221;<br \/>\nSooner or later this bubble will break. Banks who made bad &#8220;bets&#8221; will suffer catastrophic losses&#8230;or will they?<br \/>\nWith the new &#8220;Bail In Strategy&#8221; (designed by the world&#8217;s top central bank in Basel, Switzerland) banks that suffer losses and are failing can take money from depositor&#8217;s accounts and convert the money to bank stock.<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re scratching your head now thinking, they can&#8217;t possibly take my money&#8230;.<br \/>\nThe trouble is that once you put your money in the bank, IT IS NO LONGER YOUR MONEY. It&#8217;s the bank&#8217;s money. Yes, they owe it to you. But you are an &#8220;accounts payable.&#8221; You are what&#8217;s called an &#8220;unsecured creditor.&#8221; And unsecured creditors are paid out from a failing bank after the derivatives holders &#8211; the bank itself.<br \/>\nHow much they can take is a question, as the FDIC, in issuing a memo on this procedure for U.S. banks, specifically omitted any mention of deposit insurance. Perhaps the insurance will apply, but Bail Ins are new, have never been done here before and the FDIC did not mention insurance in their Bail In memo.<br \/>\nTo get the full story of who is behind this and how to protect yourself, read my new book, The Coming Financial Crisis A Look Behind the Wizard&#8217;s Curtain.
