-Be very careful in the markets right now. Algos and traders are basing strategies & making moves based on government data that is provably fake at worst, and propagandized at best. That cannot last forever, but it’s anybody’s guess as to when the rug will be pulled out.

-The previous consensus was that the US could never truly go bankrupt because the world wants dollars. In my very first post I talked about the changing of paradigms and unintelligent who can’t see the changes coming. As BRICS is up to 40 nations and growing in wealth, it may be wise to consider that the “very smart people” don’t understand the seismic shift (that they caused to our detriment).

The Weekend Meditation/contemplation (Friday):

"Remember how long you've been putting this off, how many extensions the gods gave you,  and that you didn't use them.

At some point you have recognize what world it is that you belong to,  what power rules it and from what source you spring; that there is a limit to the time assigned you, and if you don't use it to free yourself it will be gone and will never return."

-Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Book II
