Are you mad ?

Or are you furious ?


Voter fury will wreck world order, says the IMF
https://mol.im/a/6613227

Voters are losing trust in globalisation and could tear down the international order which supports world trade, top economists have warned.
Anger in countries such as the US, France and Britain could make the next global downturn far worse, according to the International Monetary Fund.
It is concerned that global organisations and national governments are no longer seen as being on the side of the people.

Do gods exist?

Yes. I knew it's just a turn of phrase for many but some take it seriously.

Re: Are you mad ?

lol at the IMF

These people and the banksters and the pyramid structure of the elite know EXACTLY what they are doing. They engineer financial collapse to maintain control, making sure they have secured all their wealth in appropriate assets beforehand. They will do it again, no question.

These people are a law unto themselves. Laws do not apply to them, they make the laws. They have their own police forces. They are ready for mass civil unrest and have been for a long time. They have millions of plastic trunks/coffins ready for bodies. They have practiced using large warehouse retailers sites and football grounds as sites for FEMA camps for when the time comes. Our world is becoming an increasing police state with mass surveillance and with the loss of our freedoms.

The EU wants to implement Corpus Juris, which gives them the right to seize anyone off the street and incarcerate them without evidence, without trial, and for long periods of time, weeks, months even years.

When you give a tiny % of the world 99% of the wealth they become very powerful. They can afford all the security, all the best weapons, they can make the laws, they can buy and own the judiciary.

Our countries have been long since taken over by Centralised Banking who use Fractional Reserve banking to run the show. They loan out money that does not exist on a 1 to 100 ratio and charge us interest on that fictional money. They print endless new banknotes to keep the sham system running but in the end a total financial collapse is inevitable. They know it, smart people know it, the finance industry knows it. It is coming.

When it happens lots of innocent people will lose everything. Their cash will be worthless. That's because your banknotes are not founded on anything. There are no real tangible assets backing them up. In the past there used to be real gold and silver in vaults backing up every banknote. The inscription "I promise to pay the bearer . . ." etc was the guarantee that you could walk into the bank with that note and demand the gold that it was worth.

Fraudulent bankers and politicians long ago abolished that system. Now the bank notes are NOT backed up by anything at all. They are literally worthless, worth only the paper (linen or plastic) that they are printed on.

When the system collapses, as it must, those notes will be worthless. Only real tangible assets will have value and many of those will drop in value too.

This is why for the past 5 years people have been buying gold bullion. Exchanging their banknotes for real gold coins and bars. That's why, if you look, the price of gold rose sharply due to the demand and is now maintaining a high price. Same for silver.

Platinum has taken a total dive already. I don't know exactly why, but as a precious metal it has tanked which is a cause for concern. It suggests someone has discovered an abundance of platinum somewhere which will devalue all the existing platinum. Possibly they have learned how to create it from baser metals.

It is time to have a very serious think about your personal wealth and what you ACTUALLY HAVE in this world.

Your money is nothing but a number in a computer screen. You can't eat it, you can't drink it. When the value of that money collapses what will you be personally left with?

A house? A car?

Your government is not going to bail you out. In fact it will screw you and also try to screw those people who diligently took precautions to protect their wealth.

In the USA many years ago the government mandated that anyone with supplies of gold had to hand them in. No messing, it was compulsory, and if you didn't comply, off to jail you went. The government paid people a pittance for the gold they took off people and then went and sold it to foreign interests for a tasty profit.

This is how fraudulent governments operate. They do not care about you one iota. You are cannon fodder.

These people will oversee the financial collapse and be totally prepared for it themselves. It is up to all of us to put our wealth into real assets that will maintain value. Assets which we can protect from those who would steal them. Gold and silver are good IF the government doesn't once again mandate that we have to give it up, however today you will pay a premium for gold and silver unfortunately as the gold rush has already happened and left the prices high.

Putting your wealth into property might be a sound idea, unless the government then tax the balls off you for having it. That's what Corbyn and a Marxist government would do.

Leaving your cash in a bank, in the hands of banksters and financiers, in savings accounts, gilts, bonds etc is fatal. All those things will be affected by the collapse. It's not real money, just a number in a computer system. You need real tangible assets that can be traded after the collpase.

Time to do one's research into suitable assets before the hammer falls

Re: Are you mad ?

I remember all this banking lark from years back.
Basically, if you want to borrow £5K, they simply type into your account the figures 5000 - simply an accounting entry.

However, the loan agreement you sign is a promise to pay and therefore becomes an asset. Increasing the banks net worth by that amount.

Yep something like that.

100 customers each want to borrow £1000

Bank literally invents that £100,000 out of thin air. That money does not exist in the real world except for £1000 of it.

Only £1000 is real hard cash.

The other £99,000 has just been invented in a computer screen.

They transfer each customer their £1000 into their bank accounts which they spend on cars or whatever. At the same time the banksters start charging those customers interest on the money they borrowed. Let's say the interest rate is 10% per year and that the customers agreed to pay it back after 1 year.

That means the banks will make £100 interest on each of the £1000 loans for a total of £10,000.

That interest is money they invented out of thin air for the privilege of a customer borrowing £1000 which the banks also invented out of thin air.

This is Fractional Reserve Banking

Loan money that doesn't exist and charge customers interest on it whilst they pay back that non-existent money.

The banks loan out this fictitious money on a 1 to 100 ration. This is to day for every £1,000,000 they loan out only £10,000 of it actually existed in real life.

This is an utterly fraudulent system both in terms of Usury (for those religions that oppose Usury) and in terms of charging people real interest money on loans that do not exist.

This is a system doomed to collapse at some point.

If you were to add up all of the money that is in all the computer systems (i.e. everyone's bank balances and savings etc) and compare that total number with the ACTUAL number of banknotes that exist in real life, you would find that the computer systems vastly outweigh the actual money

Hence if everyone went to their banks tomorrow and asked to withdraw all the money in their accounts the banks would collapse overnight. They would in fact shut their doors very quickly because they simply would not have the money to give to the customers. It simply does not exist.

This was seen with the Northern Rock and other building societies some years ago which had to be bailed out.

The banksters are making a mint using a fraudulent system that will eventually collapse and which will result in lots of people losing a lot of their wealth.

The only way they can keep the system running is to endlessly keep printing banknotes on a colossal scale.


All of this is why we should all be considering ways to invest our money into real tangible assets that will survive the inevitable crash.
