“GOLD shall destroy FED” Q (1 of 3)
Gold & silver have been manipulated for decades. The great “mouse trap” of the FED is a complex system of corridors, all leading to the same end [TRAP]. Think of the corridors as your employer-matched, pre-tax 401k, IRA, stock-market investments, savings bonds, fractional-reserve bank accounts (where you are an “unsecured lender”) and the like. Additionally, you can’t forget about the various “paper” pathways the big boys play with (using your money, of course), like futures contracts and derivatives (which are “bets” based on underlying assets).
The “mouse trap” is an engineered system of individually created components designed to attract your money. Shiny objects that excite us consumers enough to “invest” our fiat dollars in. After all, how could anyone pass up the “free-money” their employer offers in the 401k-matching program?
A good mouse trap is void of escape routes. All paths lead to capture, death. As such, we are conditioned as consumers to follow the heard, trust our “financial planners” and “save for retirement”. Side note—I always laugh internally when someone says “we have a diversified portfolio”. Translation: my barely-educated financial planner (who took night classes to get her “license” to sell “financial instruments”) made a few smaller commissions when pressed, by spreading a portion of the client’s life-savings into “safer” bond-related instruments offered by their institution of slavery.
The truth is, real diversification is the great unknown to 99% of people. It requires people to, as an example, buy physical gold or silver—and store them securely. This, to most people, is more terrifying than the notion of being a real-life landlord. liquidating their mouse-trap investments to buy an apartment building—to rent out to others is the stuff of nightmares (which Hollywood reminds us of via movies like “Pacific Heights”). These concepts scare people to death. It is unheard of in our society (just ask any licensed financial planner).
The Baby Boomer generation offered the cabal a perfect crescendo of financial harvest near the inevitable end of the fiat-money life cycle (typically around 50 years, give or take). A great cherry on top of the fiat sundae—75 million boomers socking as much as they possibly can into the mouse trap the last ten years of their careers, in order to fund comfortable retirements.
BUT—all good things must come to an end. The trap is sprung with the requisite market crash, typically followed by a good old-fashioned war. In a perfect scenario, a well-timed war could even prolong the inevitable crash—providing yet another scapegoat (“Those damn Iranians cost me my retirement!”).
BUT, TRUMP.
