In a quandary what to do as individual to take the down cabal?

1. Have no debt related to a bank. Pay off whatever bank notes you have as soon as humanly possible.

2. Keep no or minimal assets in a bank.

3. Keep your consumerism to an absolute minimum, and never have revolving debt.

4. Do not 'invest' in stock markets. Yes, this means no 401ks and IRAs. You know, cattle are still called stock. Invest in tangible assets only.

5. Live as tax free as possible. More on this later.
