Re Zelensky...I think you painted an accurate picture, Alex. He's been traveling all around the world lately and I believe he's scarred shitless to go back to Kiev where he's become a liability to his chosen friends. Good luck with your deposits! The banksters know that ATM stands for "at their mercy".
Infighting at the top is inevitable. Why? Because the top is populated with people driven by base motives. These top teams require direct and indirect reports who are of a similar base profile and are easily wielded tools. In other words, there is no honor among thieves. It is a very strange and dangerous time.
It's interesting that you have written about the disappearance of money in bank accounts on the very day that my wife of 40 years and myself are arguing about this subjuct.
many years ago before I was married I bought houses in Toronto. Today ,not through any brilliance on my part but through luck they are worth millions of dollars.
My wife believes we should sell them now as property will drop as the economy implodes. I can not disagrea with here thoughts but I feel uncomfortable having that much money in the banks under the Trudeau regime.
I believe it will be harder for the government to confiscate homes than to empty bank accounts
I have been listening to your podcast with Crypto Rich and Tom Luongo, and you were talking about Abraham Lincoln and mentioning things that I had never heard before regarding his need to destroy the fifth column within the union at that time. I would love to investigate this further. Can you point me towards a resource that I can read in this regard? Thanks.
I watched you on CryptoRich with the young lady who lived in China. I did as well during a similar timeframe, and Vietnam before that which gave me more insight into both places as their base culture is similar. China (and Vietnam) were never 1 people or culture. Vast differences in different parts of the country. The east coast provinces are very westernized and have been for a long time. It is very different in other parts, despite the Marxist attempt to make it all the same.
On a daily basis I never felt "unfree". It didn't feel like a police state. But on the other hand, there is very little freedom for the average Chinese. Their fathers' last name decides how far they get in life, not their dreams and hard work. Whatever province you are born in, that is where you must stay unless you are highly connected. A bit like the Hunger Games. I could go on for an hour.
My job there was a commercial pilot, so I also have a perspective of how the country is laid out which happened during the Great Leap Forward. I lived in 2 different provinces there, and flew to most major cities in the country.
I don't view the Chinese as a huge threat, and they are more likely to fracture as a country than invade anyone. The biggest threat they pose would be an ugly fracturing - global supply chains would swiftly break, catastrophically. More and more I see Xi as a patriot. He seems to have kicked the CCP to the curb.
I am setting up to try to do a few podcasts, the first of which will be on China. After that I am going to try do 7 for 8 to try to explain the Empire, where they came from, and their effects on history, and all of us. And keep them as short as possible.

Yes, I could interpet Alex's comment as maintaining cash-in-hand; I could also interpret it as the value of cash become deflated (not necessarily worthless). Was just asking for more clarification. Thanks

Thanks so much for your reply. You are doing great things by speaking the truth to power.

Alex, will you extend that chart to 2030 to show the effects of defeat in Ukraine?
Alex, you wrote, "But beyond this, I think cash could become an issue." Could you elaborate? Thanks. Great information.
