The shit storm is almost here, are you ready
July 2nd, 2008Well I’ve been taking about the coming financial shit storm for some time but now the time is near. Last month the Royal Bank of Scotland issued a warning “advising clients to brace for a full-fledged crash in global stock and credit markets over the next three months as inflation paralyzes the major central banks.” Then last week Fortis Bank issued this warning: “Fortis Bank predicts US Financial market meltdown within weeks”, you can read the original text (in German) here. Within days Barclays issued a similar warning “US central bank accused of unleashing an inflation shock that will rock financial markets, reports Ambrose Evans-Pritchard” … These banks are not scaremongers, they are not “fanatics” or some obscure lunatics that don’t know what they are talking about and they are DAMN serious.
And tonight an announcement came: “The following statement is written by Congressman Paul about the pending financial disaster. He will introduce this statement as a special order and insert it into the Congressional Record next week. Fortunately, we have the opportunity to debut it first on the Campaign for Liberty blog”
You can read the full text that will be read into the congressional record here
Laugh as some of you may we are on the brink of a total collapse of our financial and economic system, it could happen overnight (just like Bear Stearns collapsed) and if you are not prepared you will be caught in the whirlwind of what could very well be the great world depression, a depression unlike anything this planet has ever seen! It is time to “bunker down” and protect yourself and your family, everything else is a waste of time!
So how can you protect yourself? Here’s my simple list, something my family has been doing for the last 6 months:
1. Get as far out of debt as you can! IF you an eliminate bills do it NOW!
2. Get as much of your cash out of banks as possible, then take that cash and put it into ANYTHING that is not tied to the US dollar, preferably gold and silver (take physical delivery)
3. If you own stocks get the hell out of them NOW!
4. Lower your monthly budget down to bare bones, eliminate stupid things your family doesn’t really need to survive.
5. Buy a freezer and a vacuum packing machine and buy every damn cheap piece of meat you can find. Stock up on can foods and staples. I can almost guarantee these items will be 2-4 times as much as they are now in 4 months.
6. Buy a weapon and some ammo & fishing equipment. If all else fails you can “bring home dinner” the old fashioned way. If you have never handled a weapon before LEARN HOW FROM A PROFESSIONAL! Secondly if things get really bad you just may need to defend what you and your family have from those that are desperate and hungry.
7. Find an “alternative way” to heat your home! If you depend on oil you may be sitting in a fridgid house this coming winter. If you burn coal or wood stock up NOW.
8. Talk to your neighbors, you may need their help (and they yours) in the coming year.
This all may seem to be somewhat “alarmist” to the average Joe but look at what has happened over the past 10 months since this mess started. Has ANYTHING the government has done helped to stop the mess? Has your life gotten better or even stayed the same or has it become worse and worse each and every month? It’s time to pay the piper for years of economic stupidity and the piper is going to demand his due. It could be your home, you families well being or your job (and all the problems that come with losing a job) but this economic mess is coming to a head and if you ignore it you will suffer! It’s time to wake up, pull your head out of your ass and see what is happening and then prepare yourself so you and your loved one can survive the mess.
