05/11/23 We have a precious metals problem. There are governments around the world that are pushing the green energy revolution that is putting a tremendous strain on the mining industry. We actually should be increasing production of precious metals which directly relate to the green revolution.

04/12/23 China and Russia have been developing a long-term economic partnership aimed at diminishing the power of the US dollar. They have gained momentum with other countries and have created a plan to destroy the US dollar by decoupling it from petro and commodity sales. As the dollar loses its value against foreign currencies, inflationary pressures increase. In addition, China's digital yuan is becoming widely accepted as a centralized form of payment, which contrasts with decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. Centralized digital currencies allow for greater government control and monitoring of transactions, potentially leading to social credit scores and the ability to control citizens' access to resources.

03/29/23 Digital payments are transforming society from cash-based to cashless, with central banks globally creating an interconnected platform. China has already implemented this, limiting certain products and services and utilizing social credit scores to tax additional funds. The government can also enforce spending to maintain economic growth. Consequently, people are investing in hard assets such as real estate, gold, silver, coins, and art, which have experienced significant success in the past decade.

03/29/23  The evolution of digital payments is leading us from a cash-based society to a cashless society where the Federal Reserve and other central banks around the world are putting together a platform that will interconnect itself globally. There will be different types of central bank digital currencies that will intersect on the platform, allowing transactions to take place. The new payment form will be centralized, and people will have instant tokens in their wallets, representing digital payments. People will also have a social credit score tied to their everyday life that will determine how many tokens they have, when they can use them, where they can use them, and what products and services they can buy. This will give the government full control over all payment options. 23 banks in the US are now in a pilot program to launch a digital pilot program, and the consumer retail program is set to launch in October of this year, allowing people to get used to the new system before holiday shopping. However, people need to be aware of the limitations and restrictions that the government will have over their payment options and how this new system will affect their lives.

03/29/23 Several countries are implementing Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) through commercial beta testing, which could replace physical cash in the future. Japan released their beta version a few weeks ago. The move towards digital currencies has caused concerns about the increased control that governments and banks may have over people's financial activities, including the ability to track and limit transactions. The digital yuan, China's CBDC, is becoming increasingly popular, threatening the US dollar's status as the world's reserve currency.
